I've always been supportive of gay rights, gender equality, do what makes you happy as long as you don't harm others, etc. but this just makes me scratch my head.


quote:

The father of a 17-year-old student is campaigning to change Britain’s banks because he cannot find one that will give his child, who identifies as genderqueer and non-binary, an account – because all the online application forms require customers to be either male or female.


There have been other walls for Kaelin. In particular, when applying to university through UCAS (the University and Colleges Admissions Service), which runs the application system for higher education.

“You have to pick male or female,” said Kaelin about what happens when you sign up. “I complained to my school, who got in touch with them, and I’ve emailed a couple of times.” But, they said, it didn’t work

This is pretty easy. Stop denying biology and just mark your actual gender.

Sounds about right.
If you are a nothing you can't get a bank account or go to school.
Maybe go see a psychologist and get some help.

This psychological disaster who's father is enabling his actions rather than helping him, are the worst kind of scum on Earth. We have way bigger fish to fry than to please these Mentally ill people. Completely wrong approach. It's not about "accepting" them, diagnose it as a mental disorder.

Just pick one for frick's sake, it's a bank account not a medical journal.

But really, this bitch is not interested in a bank account. He/she is interested in attention.

there is only male or female. Either you have xx chromosomes or xy chromosomes.

If you feel like you identify as the other sex, fine, but there is no real inbetween.

He/she doesn't identify as either male or female? I find that hard to believe.

They can open a bank account. Check whatever box you identify with.

So awesome, let the stupidity spread until it collapses in on itself. I hope our government mandates that businesses must now offer non-gender restrooms

I'm all for acceptance as long as it doesn't put other people out. You want to identify as another sex? Fine, go ahead. Use whatever bathroom you want. But when we all have to pay for an extra bathroom option or pay to have all government forms now read "male, female or OTHER" to appease .001% of the population, that's when I get pissed.

I find it irritating as hell when people use this kind of shite to push through their political agenda. I honestly don't care of they add a "none of the above" box below the male and female check boxes.

also, if pops wants to put his money in a coffee can in his back yard, I really don't have a problem with that either.
