Why is it that we cannot appreciate that there is a difference between our genders? There's a reason shopping centres on a Saturday are chock full of girls (and whipped boyfriends) and football grounds are full of blokes. We have differences, it's great that we do. Of course there is difference, but there is also difference within those genders, which we certainly don't like to allow people to explore. Its the social conditioning of society that enforces a lot of those differences, and restrictions on people. Its interesting you mention football and shopping, as these are traditional gender areas, in which we've seen large changes in 'gender demographics'. Women at football and playing football, has become a bit of a growth area, as has men shopping. We are socially conditioned into gender roles and identities, as children. All I'm saying, is that we should allow children to explore and build their identity themselves. Most notably for men. Women don't seem to have been too happy with the idea of socially defined gender roles over the last hundred or so years.

The left have done to death the 1% thing. But when it suits them they want to cater for the 0.1% I quite like this. Of course, its different when you have no choice in the matter.

One of the problems of saying you're a tiger dragon or unicorn is which bogs you use. I can see the sense in boys, girls and trans but I don't want no damn unicorn pissing next to my grandchildren. Edited by johnno42000 (20 Apr 2016 1.38pm) Unicorns piss rainbows though.

Are you born with bollocks, or do your bollocks descend? I do believe they descend but you're still born with them. The knob is there, in its correct place, from the off.

Why shouldn't children choose their gender, based on their feelings, rather than have it defined by their parent. As long as they can change it periodically, I see no problem at all with it. But then it should be based also on children's perception of their gender, not a check list of acceptable terms. If they want to put their gender as Tiger Dragon, then that's fine with me also - as its their understanding of their gender that matters, not our preconceptions. This is sounding very much like the right to have babies. It is absurd. You are born with a gender and as an adult you can change it with drugs and surgery but that is about it.

Well I know where I stand on the right to have children... There is gender, as a biological occurrence, and gender as a socially constructed concept. The two are very different. The latter is much more dominant in our ideas of male and female differences, than the biological. We are much more than simple slaves to our biological instincts and imperatives. Otherwise the roles of women and women's identity wouldn't have changed so much over the last 100 years. Its odd that we've embraced the 'expansion' of what a woman can be, to include adopting many 'aspects associated in the past with male gender identity' but not the reverse.

You just spent a lifetime taking it from where it was supposed to be, and inserting it where its 'not supposed to go'. Its a very narrow view though of gender. And its certainly not how society entirely defines gender either, that's more socialised behaviour. I don't think we're biologically predisposed towards certain values, roles, styles of dress, hair style, toys etc.

A slight aside but why do women spend a ridiculously short time on the toilet when doing a number 2?
In the woods there grew a tree. And a fine fine tree was he. |
