I'm new to this thread and don't want to read all that crap.

What's the argument here?

carried over from the dem thread. in effect trans identity trumps all. biology/physiology mean nothing.

I don't see how it matters. Hard to argue if you aren't a scientist.

That’s complicated

There’s been three main threads of conversation:

1) mrussel’s inane efforts to win an argument he doesn’t understand. You can ignite those parts.

2) some mildly contentious, but generally positive discussion about gender neutral child rearing

3) an open conversation about whether anyone here can actually hear “you’re being offensive” without immediately turtling

No, it really isn’t.

I'll say this....I don't care how people identify and want to live their lives. Life is too short for us to tell anyone how they can live.

That being said, this pronoun crap is ridiculous. They even have to document your preferred pronoun on medical records now. I told my wife I am going to use "her/they" if they ask me.

See, what’s the proper way for me to tell Gern he’s being offensive?

keep in mind that I don't care what pronoun people use....I'm just not going to use it

So you’re reinforcing the dehumanization of trans, non-binary, and gender fluid people.

Good analogy..

Gern Blansten · January 2020

And it does beg the question....how are we supposed to even know what the proper pronoun is? Are we all going to tattoo our pronouns on our foreheads?

We only lack understanding because you're incapable of explaining. Some teacher...

Not intentionally. I don't think it is fair to make that case against someone who truly doesn't care how people choose to identify.

Why does your intent matter? I doubt it does to the trans people you’re misgendering.

Or instead of this shitty take, you can just choose to respect people.
