Matt Walsh went all the way to a Masai tribe in Kenya to ask them about transgender and nonbinary. Half of them were confused and the other half were laughing. Definitely check that clip out.

Also definitely censorship in action there.

As someone who is Chinese I can affirm that there are distinct roles for each sex and the word for sex and gender is the same. It's just the west and some fa'alangitawa tribe that hasn't advanced past the stone age that is trying to muddy it up

Is it right there aren't sexed pronouns either?

We refer to men as 他, women as 她. If the sex is unknown or if we're referring to both men and women we use the male pronoun. There is no "Gender neutral"

Nice how the first poster tries to tie their question into the realm of racism, thereby ensuring that any answer that isn't "correct" is automatically tainted by association.

Fun fact: The transgender law center, the association that recommended tying trans issues to race issues know that it will make them unpopular amongst black people and they don't care

That's what I hate the most honestly: race and sex-based issues being tied into LGBTQ2IA$$+ issues by default, and in the same vein LGB issues being irrevocably tied into the TQ2IA$$+. Never mind the fact that all these categories are quite separate with their own nuances and should be treated as such if you want to make any meaningful change. But nope, they all have to be lumped in with each other under the crazy leftist umbrella.

It's funny to me that the UK government recently announced they'd stop using BAME in official communications, because they've realised that those are distinct groups, with a vast array of experiences and problems separate to each group. Yet they continue to use LGBTQIABBQ. It's even worse there, since the latter half of the acronym actively works against the other half's interests. The Ts effectively expect every gay person to be bi & the Qs basically want there to be no boundaries at all

Lol that acronym with the dollar signs is perfect for the hostile takeover of gay rights groups by capitalism.

How can we force gays to buy our useless shit?

I know, make straight people "gay" by having them buy weird outfits, hormones, and the same products but with a rainbow and double the price!

This is because black people don't have any meaningful political power on their own, and there's no risk of them one day rising up and taking it.

There's nothing inherently wrong with racism, and they are correct that the argument for race being rooted in biology (i.e. race realism) is essentially the same as the argument for sex being rooted in biology (i.e. sex realism). And in both cases, the prevailing moral paradigm forces one to reject the biological reality.

Gender is not a universally binary concept

Whenever you try to ask for counterexamples, you always get examples of how other cultures discriminated against gay men, so I don't know if that's the brilliant point you think it is.

Just saw this thread for myself. So many pearls of delusional shite. I wanted to screenshot so many responses. So many biological inaccurate statements
