If you can't accept the way or what you were born to be then 90% of society won't accept you either..

If sex and gender are two different things, then you shouldn't complain or demand for gender neutral awards, because those two categories simply fall in the description of sex not gender.

This video was years ago, now look at where we are. Absolute clown world.

[aevenova]

I identify as a dinosaur. My pronouns are RAWR/ GRRR. If you dont accept that, you are a dinophobe.

Well... this is a man. Clear like water.

The “M” on my birth certificate next to gender stands for Male, not makeup.

"The nurse decided the sex.." No. When someone is handed a basketball, he doesn't "decide" it is round. He makes an empirical observation. That's what people do upon seeing an infant - if it has a penis, it's male, if it has a vagina, it's female. Of course there are marginal exceptions but generally, sex is almost completely binary.

I thought it was called fashion, not gender. Hair, makeup clothing

[DonLoganfan]

The nurse doesn’t decide the sex of a new born baby, she/he merely calls out what she/he sees.

the world has gone mad.what the f**k is being discussed.

[tinangwane]

“I can’t understand what it is to be deaf if I’ve never been deaf” but he understood what it was to be a woman even though he had never been one. Interesting

[yochanantov]

Someone abused this man at a very, very early age & grew up confused.

[SilverSurfer]

I love how he shops himself when he says sex, for mammals, is binary. Thank and goodnight.

[ronohill]

All transgender should compete with fellow transgender in every kind of sport

[shoebsumra]

Okay!

I identify as an Ambulance 🚑
My pronouns are WEE/WOO 💯

[bobthebuilder]

Sex is not just about your genitals dude! Beneath and inside those gonads are chromosomes, XX and XY.

[Legitti]

Funny how in many languages sex and gender translates to one word

[mokonetsebe]

Actually gender is derived from male and female sex and its connoted by social cultures which are inspired by the male and female sex( state of being). lets not confuse people here. And also the mere fact that LGBT is always interjecting when people speak is because they are not trained to reason they are trained to impose, it seems a little bit occultic for me. They seem to be like people who are meant to protect and impose a certain cult and they are frustrated by anyone who challenge them because we shouldn't be disagreeable instead we should just adapt which i find very weird.

As a teenager myself I've seen kids YOUNGER then me(15) claim to be transgender as a trend which is apsoloutly and utterly stupid tbh. I respect transgender people as in male, female and ill even respect non binary, but give me more than those i will laugh in your face. And now they want to get rid of actress/actor categories. Thats just mad.

[bfwnoby]

This is just ridiculous how confusing it is . I mean it's not Multiple Variable Calculus nor Differential Equations. It's Nothing more than Gender Babble.
