These people scream about sex and gender being different, but then can't grasp that medical forms are asking for sex and not gender. Do they get trained to be this stupid or is it just natural?

I see you're still running Gender 2.0. The updated version clarifies that 'sex' is a myth propagated by colonialist white supremacists to oppress women (whatever that means), trans and non-binary persons.

To them gender is ALL that matters.

If they accept the fact they are still female, they'll have to admit their efforts to conceal their real self have been for naught.

Oh for fuck's sake.

I made it to the second paragraph before my eyes rolled back so hard I got eyestrain and couldn't keep reading. If they wanted to protect themselves from covid, they'd figure it out themselves.

I don't get it.

Vaccines have nothing to do with gender and everything to do with anatomy.

Strictly speaking, vaccines have much more to do with sex chromosomes and "humoral immunity" - meaning the part of immune function found in and determined by extracellular fluids - than anatomy.

Human immune function is regulated by genes on the X chromosome; and it's because girls & women have two X chromosomes that our immune function is greater than male immune function. It's also why women get far more auto-immune diseases than men do.

Vaccines work by prompting an antibody response. Antibodies reside in the blood, tissue fluids such as lymph, and secretions like saliva and mucous, but not directly in the tissues, organs or other body structures themselves.

A woman could have all her female-specific anatomy (genitals, breasts, internal reproductive/sex organs) removed and she still would have a female immune response to vaccines because of her XX chromosomes and how they influence humoral immunity.

Solomon found Manitoba's form had four boxes they could pick from when designating sex: male, female, intersex and unknown. Solomon, who is non-binary and uses they and them pronouns, didn't see themself reflected in any of those options.

Let me make it easy.

Born with a dick and balls?

Born with a vagina and ovaries?

Or intersex.

Literally every human on the planet is one of these three options.

If they agree to that, then they have to accept they are not special nor interesting.

Do you mean "Tranada"?

I should have.

Darn it!

Of course it's the fucking CBC.

I wish these idiots would realize that they're just making themselves look crazy. Seriously, the largest health crisis in a generation and they're whining about people assuming they're female when they ostensibly look female and have a female name?

Biological sex matters. It affects the presentation of disease, efficacy and dosage of medications. Gender identity is 100% irrelevant to everything but their own feelings. These narcissists are undermining public health efforts (and possibly their own wellbeing) by refusing to provide accurate information.

People have got to stop encouraging this lunacy. It’s a medical form. Marking down your sex should not cause a meltdown. How do these people function in society?

These clowns complaining about getting “invalidated” by a goddamn medical form to get a Covid vaccine, when poor people in India are dropping dead and getting cremated on sidewalks because the Covid death toll is too high for crematoriums!! If this isn’t the absolute height of privileged narcissism, I don’t know what is!😡

Got my second transphobia injection yesterday. Had a worse reaction second time, more arm hurty and a slight fever. I don't remember much about the intake form but I don't remember a gender question. Questions about - have you been diagnosed with covid, have you had any vaccinations in the past 2 weeks, have you had any bad reactions to vaccinations in the past. Trans ppl hyperventilating about nothing and making random stuff all about themselves like usual.

Defund the CBC already

Seriously. I remember when I rolled my eyes at Conservatives criticizing the CBC. Now the CBC is a fulltime PR mechanism for drag queens and polyamorists. A national broadcaster should actually be representative of all Canadians, not trying to impose a cultural agenda.
