I wonder what these people think being 'discriminated against' actually means.

Someone telling you they don't want to date you is a form of discrimination in the strictest, literal sense of the word. I discriminate against the plain brown bread when I buy something else at the supermarket. Choices are inherently discriminatory.

But I get the impression that a lot of people (not just genderspecials) think 'not getting what I want' is equal to discrimination, and then they're super quick to pull out their stack of identity cards and play whichever one will be most politically expedient at any given time.

'You only experience sexual attraction very rarely? We don't cater for your kind.'

'Vote? Don't make me laugh. Only people who are attracted to three or fewer genders get to vote.'

'I'm afraid we only employ people who rigidly adhere to gender stereotypes. Please see yourself out.'

'Excuse me! Excuse me you can't be in this half of the beach, you have to use the omnisexual beach over there.'

While I'm glad to see that instances of real discrimination are on the wane such that these people have to manufacture tragic little tales in their heads, I definitely think that, as a collective, Western society needs to move away from the victim-as-moral-authority mindset that we've created for ourselves.
