Ok I'm going to take a guess. Do they think womanhood = being attracted to men?

That's the only explanation I can come up with

This idea was more popular around today’s 70-somethings. But what’s old is new again.

Unfortunately this kind of thinking is a plague among lesbians in my area these days. I am told they don’t “feel like women.” I don’t what that means but when I talk about myself they suggest that I’m “agender” because “it’s a thing” and I said I don’t feel like I have a gender identity and that gender doesn’t feel like an important part of my life. Sigh.

My thought is that if you don’t feel like a woman, what am I licking and how should I feel about that? It’s such a turnoff. How are any of them having any semblance of a sex life when they feel that disconnected from their bodies and reality?

New political climate is all about "gender" and "gender identity", based on "gender stereotypes". And it all is pushed by different organizations like Mermaids among young kids and teens, so they are growing up on this bullsh*t (sorry for my French).

If you a girl, but you like cars - you are transman. If you are boy, but you like dolls - you are transwoman.

And "loving women" is "man stereotype", so "lesbian must be transman" in GenderQueer theory. This means that for GenderQueer theory to work, lesbians must not be women and must be not connected to womanhood, otherwise theory makes no sense. So those stupid ideas are pushed around in all media. If there are people speaking against it - they are cancelled from their jobs, or outright banned (Reddit and Facebook just swept gender critical and true lesbians away, so young people and teen lesbians will not see normal people like us and will only see that woke agenda around and think "it is normal").

So 100-years old stereotypes are back again and are enforced again. This time not by conservatives, but by "progressives".

What’s old just got old again! Lol

Also: everyone is a-gender. The reason people don’t feel like a woman or a man is because they are the ones who believe in stereotypes and don’t relate to them. That’s not our problem!

Looooooool. Similarly when an ex goes non-binary I just think wth was I licking? Ladies we have questionable licking history because of these ppl! :D

Edit: Good point on what is old is new again.

Between the toddler sorting and our dating pool changing based on their identity without even giving us a courtesy notification that our sexual orientation has changed yet again, who even are we? And how can we ever communicate that to anyone else?

Queer Homework Assignment: Pick whatever gender pleases you the most (Let’s say stargender), claim that stargender identity, and then tell an ex she (or probably “they,” lez be real) must now identify as a stargenderfucker. And she/they must tell all her/their exes that they must now identify as stargenderfuckerfuckers. You know, pay it forward and such.

You have just written one of those brill things that makes you laugh - cry, because it is true, but is also so bloody ridiculous it hurts.

And boy oh boy, I bet many people here were on the receiving end of such communication.

  • Hello, I'd like to inform you are now a stargender fucker.

What happens to the people who have a few exes who re-identified? The genderized pay-it-forawrd intensifies...

Now I’ve never played before so I can’t say for sure, but I feel like the end result is some kind of kwirky kweer combo of musical chairs, the Wheel of Fortune, and this episode of the Office. Also, Putin can take the day off and touch up his Botox and fillers because America, Canada, the UK, etc. have identified themselves out of power. Like seriously. The Anglosphere is becoming simultaneously the softest society but also the most intolerant and hostile but we’re fighting each other. Maybe now the UK will survive if Scotland gets a grip.

In any case, Gen Z is remarkably sexually inactive so this is how we go down apparently.

I can't 😂. Stroke of genius with the musical chairs and The Office analogies!

Putin can take the day off and touch up his Botox and fillers because America, Canada, the UK, etc. have identified themselves out of power.

That's the reason for that sly knowing smile he wears all the time. He plays this point that the west is soft - so often.

You know how the press likes to compare today's time with the '30s in Europe, I heard one historian say that it's actually more like after the invention of the Gutenberg press. The information and misinformation spread with unprecedented speed - which, in part, contributes to 'softness'. I suppose we can only hope that the next stage is a backlash from our poor beleaguered skeptics and empiricists.

While Putin and the West do their thing, quietly and steadily stuff goes on in Africa and China.

Funny enough they covered the idea of bringing the printing press to court in the new show The Great, which is a fictional show about Catherine the Great and her rise to power in Imperial Russia. Of course it gets used for gossip and, yes, disinformation immediately.

Ugh, I hate when Putin is right. And I hate how he doesn’t even need to be stealthy. His tactics are pretty brutalist and basic but he’s patient af.

Ah, interesting show - thanks! Hulu seems to be going all in on corsets. First Harlots, now this. We approve :)

And, you pretty much summed up Putin.

So gender is an STI?

Sexually Transmitted Identity? I mean. . . .
