That was so convoluted I can't even tell which direction the student is transitioning.

How dare they? These privileged cis genders feel like they can go about their lives without giving others the attention that they rightly deserve. Disgusting, you should all feel ashamed.

Why anyone reads the op-ed of any newspaper is mindblowing. I read newspapers every day, conservative and liberal and I haven't read an op-ed in years. They are almost always extremely biased write-ins from some warped organiszation that no one ever heard of.

Wouldn't most people have thought she was just a little confused?

I'm laughing.

Do people really think this make sense?

I could care less what anyone thinks their gender is. If you think you are a goat or a coffee table that is fine too.

If you specifically ask me what I think about your choice to self identify as a polar bear, I will say " whatever floats your boat."

This is such a load of BS because the snowflakes cant even agree on a basic set of their pronouns. Many of them want their own special pronoun that is like no one else.

Like the moron "s.e. smith who insist on being referred to with the pronoun "ou".

Well she was born a woman. She describes herself in this way:

"s.e. smith is a genderqueer writer, social justice agitator, and commentator based in Northern California. Ou focuses on social issues, particularly gender, prison reform, disability rights, ...

She gets highly offended if anyone refers to her as anything but "ou".

Edit. Here is a pic of "ou"

Boys have a penis, girls have a vagina. My 5 year old gets this. It's not that difficult. If you're born with a dick, you're not a chick. Period. No matter how many pills you take or how much surgery you have will not change the fact that you were born with a dick.

Still can't understand how a guy can "identify" as a female Abe vis versa but a white girl can't identify as black.

They probably thought it was "ridiculous" that "blacks should vote" back in the 1850s, too. This is the natural progression of society, I'm sorry that you're on the wrong, bigoted, side of history.

which sort of defeats the purpose of an f'ing pronoun.

also, what's next, articles? prepositions? punctuation?

related (to the unfounded KKK fears of loony HRC rejects, that is):

Last night there were skinheads on my lawn
Take the skinheads bowling
Take them bowling

Sorry, OP, this is now a punk rock thread

You know that Johnny Werzner kid
The kid who delivers papers in the neighborhood?
He's a fine kid.
Some of the neighbors say he smokes crack, but I don't believe it.

Anyway, for his 10th birthday, all he wanted was a burrow owl, "Dad, get me a burrow owl. I'll never ask for anything else as long as I live".
So the guy breaks down and buys him a burrow owl.

Anyway at 10:30 the other night I go out into my yard and there's the Werzner kid looking up in the tree.
I said, "What are you looking for?"
He said, "I'm looking for my burrow owl."
I say, "Jumping Jesus on a pogo stick! Everybody knows that a burrow owl lives in a hole in the ground! Why the hell do you think they call it a burrow owl, anyway?!"

Now Stuart, do you think a kid like that is gonna know what the queers are doing to the soil?

You guys should read up on what Jordan Peterson has been up against at the University of Toronto in recent history. The short of it is university policy and Canadian law are now probably defining the refusal to use these special pronouns as a form of hate crime. It sounds too ridiculous to be real but... Sadly this is now a real thing.
