    Does it really matter if someone prefers to be referred as they/them to you? What an insecure, little man you are.

    What are your thoughts on people who change genders multiple times per day? Like there is a police officer in the UK, some days they are a female, and other days a male, they have two names and use different ones depending if they are identifying as male or female at that particular moment, Callum when male and Abi when female, they have seperate ID and police warrent cards for the two genders and names.

    I think it a load of bollocks.

    ^ Is that a real thing or myth, though? As far as I know official documents (warrant cards?) can't be changed ad hoc


    I agree with KW, though - it's not up to others to label anyone for their sexuality or gender. What does it bother me that Jack/Jill refers to themselves as gender-fluid or gender-indistinct one day and one of the LGBTQIetc... the next.
    (Though it does get confusing at times)

    It's real, as unbelievable as it sounds.

    UK's first gender-fluid police officer going by names 'Callum' and 'Abi'

    Yes, the warrant card id is a weird one.

    From the article:

    Gender fluid is a gender identity which refers to a gender which varies over time. A gender fluid person may at any time identify as male, female, neutral, or any other non-binary identity, or some combination of identities.
    and then:

    “Abi is a part of me that exists and I want that part to be recognised and validated. “But I’m still me. I’m still the same person whether I’m presenting as Callum or Abi. It’s the same dice. You’re just looking at a different number.”
    It is odd to me and probably to most people . . . but it's what they are.

    It doesn't affect me if that's what you mean,
    but it's fucking stupid in my opinion.

    I have no problem with that, but it would seem incompatible with the job, when they identify as Abi can they undertake body/strip searches of females? What if they start identifying as a male again half way through the search?

    But I'm not applying labels to anyone am I, just saying it's fucking ridiculous that someone demands they be referred to as 'they'. (Even though I just did it). I'm with Peterson on this. Surely if they have the right to demand something ridiculous I have the right to refuse.

    The bar must be set pretty low or the force is trying to be woke or just not to upset a minority group.
    Look how they allowed child abuse to flourish because of their reluctance to be seen racially profiling paki's.

    See, now what's 'odious' about that example of the U.K. police ering on the side of woke.?
    If you're suggesting it's not true they've admitted it.
    Why Did British Police Ignore Pakistani Gangs Abusing 1,400 Rotherham Children? Political Correctness
    I know it's inconvenient to your worldview but you'll just have to live with it.
    What's getting tedous is your constant look at how woke I am regardless of the situation BS.

    Preference is your choice, for you, so if you identify as a frog or a superhero that's fine with me; but when you try to impose that choice upon the rest of society that's when things start moving out of sync.

    Could be just me, but if you appear to be male or female I will refer to you as such, and if someone tries to impose what I view (ie my preference) as the sheer idiocy of 112 genders that do not even include the 2 which I know, that's when a problem begins.

    I think you misunderstand what the word impose means.

    Should someone force the monikor 'frog' on to you. That would be imposing.

    What's the difference between Covid-19 and the 737 Max?
    Covid is airborne.


    Didn't want the whole page to pass without some sort of joke.

    Hilarious, spelling, the refuge of someone without an actual argument.

    I know what impose means, and until your post I thought you do too.

    If I call you a bloke and you insist on me referring to you as an astrogender, that is an imposition. If you go on to wreck my life having unbeknown to me decided three minutes earlier to identify with some other gender, I call that a serious fcuking issue.
