"Other words, including mother, woman and maternal consent, have been changed to be more inclusive of transgender and nonbinary people. "

Pure. Insanity.

LOL!!

Looks like this whole trans thing is going to piss women off in the long run.

Ridiculous.

reply

I don't agree. I wish I did, but I don't. At the risk of getting shit, women drive this nonsense. All this PC/SJW crap, it's women.

Those people you see protesting about sending their kids back to school (because they are tired of having them home)? Women. People demanding trans folk be accepted as "regular" men and women? Women. People who talk about "mom shaming", "body shaming", and labeling anyone who doesn't agree with them racist, sexist, or any other ist or ism out there? Primarily women.

kuatorises,

I suppose that could be the case, I haven't seen any data on it. But I've seen plenty of men go along with it too.

I just think it's unfortunate that as of right now, it looks like this is going to "undermine" what it means to be a woman to some degree. Now that trans-females are allowed to compete against natural born girls in sports and also the changing of words to describe body functions that are exclusively "female". I read an article not too long ago about how they're now going to call women "people who menstruate" just to please the trans community and woke generation.

LOL! "people who menstruate"... so funny... :)

Women are almost always more liberal than me: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/02/how-women-became-democratic-partisans/606274/ and support the trans movement more than men: https://www.dazeddigital.com/politics/article/49781/1/a-majority-of-women-support-trans-peoples-right-to-self-identify-poll-lgbt

But some of this isn't quantifiable. There's no stats on the sex of protestors who want their kids sent back to school. I'm just going by what I see on the news, social media, etc. Every. Single. Story. I see about parents wanting their kids going back to school, the crowds are predominantly women.

reply

Seems like it would make sense that women would want kids back in school. Women are usually the ones that end up taking care of the kids, putting them in school gives them a break. haha...

Either way, we'll see how this plays out over the next 10 years or so. I just can't imagine women being okay with this in the future but we shall see.

Not likey

I honestly can’t handle any more of this stupid bullshit. Wow! You would think that 89% of people in the world were trannies based on all these sudden language sensitivities society is having.

Beast milk! Breast milk! Breast milk! Female! Mother! Woman! I will NEVER call breast milk “human milk”. The crazy meter has broken off and is floating in outer space somewhere.

I really need to stop clicking on this page, haha...it always makes me shake my head in pure frustration. But it’s getting to be the train wreck you just can’t look away from.

reply

Oh but you WILL embrace it because there is NOTHING you can do about it.

The future is transgender. Deal with it.

reply

I will NOT embrace it, and I don’t care enough to want to do anything about it. It’s just ridiculous and pathetic. I will simply just continue to use the normal terms breast milk, mother, woman, etc. What are they going to do...kick me out of a hospital and throw me in jail for saying “breast milk”?

The future IS severely mentally ill. I will give you that. 100%.

reply

Or what? You going to lock us up for saying Ellen Page is a woman or using the words "breast milk"? Fucking goofball.

reply

Or you will go the way of the dinosaurs.

reply

Extinct how? You "progressives" going to murder anyone who doesn't agree with you?

reply

You will lose any and all credibility and will be discredited out of public discourse like flat earthers and the like are.

reply

Science has proved the Earth isn't flat. You know, science? That thing that says Ellen Page isn't a man? Don't talk to me about credibility.

reply

Science has proven that gender is a social construct and that gender dysphoria is real.

Please inform yourself. Your ignorance causes suffering to trans people.

reply

Science has proven that gender is a social construct

Please provide evidence of this by posting peer reviewed papers to back up your claim.

Your ignorance causes suffering to trans people

Really? They are incapable of hearing a different arguement/opinion wihtout feeling distressed or sufferering. Well that is on them not the above post.

If you google exactly what you wrote "Science has proven that gender is a social construct" the first 3 results are that gender is not a social construct.

reply

Please learn about postmodernism and how it has done away with rigid categories.

reply

So no scientific peer reviewed papers then to back up your argument you made.

I don't have to do anything. You do to prove your point.

Now you talk about postmodernism, what happened to the science?

reply

Science is rooted in philosophy the old rigid categories that the modernist philosophy of science used have been done away with with post modern philosophy. Hence gender as a social construct.

reply

None of that is true but keep going.

Still on waiting on peer reviewed papers.


Science is rooted in philosophy

No it isn't. Science is about asking questions and finding answers to those questions through theories and eperimentations that can be repeated to make it fact. Hence peer reviewed papers.

the modernist philosophy of science used have been done away

Another straight up lie. Science is and always be science. See above.

Hence gender as a social construct

Nothing you have said explains that. You have gone from saying science proved it to postmodernism to philosophy and then that science as we knw it doesn't exist anymore. So which is it?

Also which society created gender then? Recently? Last 100 years? 1000 years, when exactly. Europeans, Polynesians, Egyptians, Ancient Greece. Who?

Do these same socially constructed genders corralate to other countries and continents. Are you saying that gender norms are the same in the west as say Africa or Aborigines, Eskimos or Japanese. I'm sorry but that is ludicrous.

I'll keep waiting for those peer reviewed papers to back up your so called scientific claim.

reply

Sex and gender used to mean the same thing. Shit, many a job application still asks for your gender and they ain't talking about what you THINK you are. But like with the word racism - so that only white people can be racist - you liberal weirdos tried to change the meaning of it.

Penis = man. Breasts and vagina = woman. Men can't have children and only women can breast feed. THAT is science.

reply

there are men born without penises, please educate yourself

reply

Yes, that is a physical deformity.

reply

I told you, transgender is the future...embrace it.

reply

Elsofoque,

Not sure I would call it the future. Eventually we'll find a "reasonable" treatment for people that have gender dysphoria other than sex change and hormone therapy. The medical community just hasn't been able to find it yet.

Although, some have tried various types of medication with limited success, sooner or later, we'll solve this problem that some people have so they don't have to go under the knife any longer.

reply

Alsofuck is a troll. Don't feed it.

reply

I don't even understand how it's "more inclusive". As far as I know, milk only comes from breasts.

reply

Don't use facts, "progressives" don't like that.

reply

Tarter sauce! I keep forgetting that!

reply

Apparently stupid is contagious.

reply

So from now on, when they're giving milk to a baby, you'll need to ask "ok, but that human milk... I'm sure a human has produced it, but... how to say it? it comes from a breast or from somewhere else...? "

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I read in another post that Ellen Page would be replacing someone in the Mandalorian.

I FIND THAT HUGELY OFFENSIVE !!!!!!!!!!!

It should be Womandalorian !!!
