Not a clue (gender confusion)

and as for those who aren't confused, simply letting little children be little children- and "playing pretend" would eliminate a lot of this.

Yep. I agree. There are social thresholds, like potty training, and you encourage them to just go thru this stuff at their own pace.

This has worked decently all of recorded human history. There are exceptions, but there are exceptions to any general case, and need to be handled as exceptions, and not a part of the general rule.
 
Okay I get that those were the pronouns she preferred but customers wouldn't be addressing her by those pronouns. :unsure: Perhaps she wanted them to know how to refer to her if they had to report her to the manager. :LOL:

Because in the times the Bible was written, women were treated like crap. The Bible is chock full of misogyny. There's no way the writers would claim god is a woman.

Yeah, He reached out to them where they were
And tolerated much....for a time

Quite like today

I have found that a conversion to doubt was a major milestone in my life.
Letting go of certain absolutes freed me to embrace possibilities hitherto unknown. I believe I am a better person for it. ♥️

Jake Adams, who prefers they/them as pronouns, alleges that they were approached by two homeless individuals in front of a brew pub on Division Street. Adams says that they accosted them (Adams), and they was threatened in an intimidating manner. They were identified by Adams, and they were subsequently found to be carrying knives.
​
Adams stated that they were worried for their life, and thanked the two policemen men who responded, and said they acted appropriately.​
​
The two homeless said they merely asked for spare change.​

I totally lost count here. Was there one homeless person who Identified as them, (making it two or more), or were there mathematically two, (and how many knives were there?), and how many policemen? (One cop, or one who identified as 'them'?)
 
It’s become common practice with Gen Xers, Millennials, and Gen Z’ers to announce their pronouns, indicating the gender or non- gender they want to be recognized as.

Gendered pronouns specifically reference someone’s gender: he/him/his or she/her/hers.

Non-gendered or nonbinary pronouns are not gender specific and are most often used by people who identify outside of a gender binary. (Gender binary meaning male or female) The most common set of nonbinary pronouns is they/them/their used in the singular (meaning they identify as genderqueer; they do not see themselves as either a woman or a man).

If it wasn't Ecclesiastes, it was B. F. Skinner. ;)
 
I believe most people think that what's between your legs determines your gender identity. It's what is between your ears that determines your perceived gender. Your *******s usually agree with that imprinting. When it doesn't, it's gender dysphoria, and those people are train wrecks-major depressions, unending anxiety, unable to form relationships, suicides, drug addiction, and INTENSE HATRED of their offending *******s. Some believe this is just someone putting on a dress and traipsing through the meadow. It's not, it's devastating. Just think how unsettling it is to meet a person, who dresses as one gender, but has the *******s of another. Now, try being that person.

Another way to look at it, since reproduction is unlikely, is that they are the unfit being squeezed out of the gene pool by evolutionary forces.
