Hoping to bring both the left and the right together.

Let's agree that sex and gender are two different things.

Gender can be used without regard for biological sex. For instance, we can call a boat a female, even though it has neither ovaries or a johnson.

Sex can be related to biological sex / chromosomes.

If we can agree to this, then let's agree to separate sports and bathrooms based on sex, not gender?

Can we all be happy with this?

Sex is a social construct too. Why define people by sex when we could define them by hair color?

The stupid arguments will never stop until every societal norm is destroyed.

I will never give ground on this.

The vast majority of people can easily tell the difference between male/female, masculine/feminine, etc. A vocal minority of crazy people online and in big cities have issues with this.

Why not? Can you explain the problem?

There was never a problem to begin with. Sex and Gender are the same.

Why would someone need surgery to change a social construct?

Wait, I thought the science was important. If there’s any doubt, settle it with a chromosome test.

This whole woke thing is people trying to create a solution to a problem that did not exist to begin with.

Well, inanimate objects have been gendered for a long time. I used boats in my example, but the concept has applied to many things before.

People said vocal minority with baking a gay cake. Here we are some years later doing drag shows for kids and mutilating them.

People do do this, but I never have.

I don’t give names to my cars or any if that shite either.

There are some things you just don't need to compromise on

If gender is a social construct then you can argue everything is a social construct. Gender has never been a “social construct” until cultural Marxists entered the scene looking to destroy all societal norms.

They don't.

People get surgery to become dragons and vampires too. That doesn't make them a dragon or vampire.

I don't care what you pretend to be, just accept that very few people will see you like you want them to see you and you'll never change that.
