We have to separate ourselves to go to the bathroom, the high-school football team versus the volleyball team, seemingly gender-specific toys for babies, etc.
That trend drives me insane. I did not understand it when I was six (can't remember any earlier than that) and still don't.
Of course, one could make the same argument about race because we already have the opportunity to mate with whomever we choose and have had that choice for a while now, yet people still by and large choose to pair up with others from their own race.
Not the same. The equivalent would be ability to change our coloration, eye shape, etc to suit our moods. People who care about race tend to define race based on appearance (which is the only biological difference anyway).
would you swap bodies with your sex partner to experience sex from their perspective
Dude, anyone who would refuse to do that if they were able to should be dumped immediately. What kind of person could have the opportunity to find out first hand what works for their lover and just turn it down?
how would the Christian right choose to justify their inevitable opposition to such a thing
With as large of a lack of logic and as they use to justify their opposition to everything else.
