What a novel idea!!
It looks like we aren't done with "self-identified diversity", yet!
This is a woke movement transgressing sanity and sense.

But I don't think one needs to be "trans-age" to feel immature. I know plenty of people feeling/acting that way, lol!
(don't confuse "trans age" with "transsexual")

In the age of ‘self-identified diversity’ where anyone is free to identify as whatever they want, a Japanese man has come out as ‘trans-age’, meaning that he chooses to identify as 28 years old, despite having been born 39 years ago because it’s an age that better describes his still immature personality. He explained that he didn’t feel comfortable as a 39-year-old man, so he decided to be 28 instead.

Now, listen to that:

He said that the idea of becoming trans-age and identifying as 11 years younger was inspired by an interaction with his boss at work. During one exchange, his superior asked ‘How can you not know how to do this at your age?” It made him feel bad, so he decided to adopt an age he felt more comfortable at.

Note:
Being trans-age allows a person to add years to their age all the way to infinity, disregard their age completely, or even use imaginary numbers or equations to describe their age. Apparently, one can even have multiple ages. Basically, anything goes…

This is a real thing, too...

Except, ironically, the one thing that you should be able to self-identify as: your race. Which, is a made up social construct of a thing. But the woke crowd won't have that. That one's protected.

Identifying as stuff is silly. What you are should be based on objective facts.

If you can choose your gender you should be able to choose your race and your age.

It's crazy. I'll enjoy hearing the arguments from the gender ideology crowd, will they be for or against this?

I'm told that we have to accept transgender lies in large part because transgender people might self-harm if we don't.

In theory, all transage people have to do is say the same self-harm claim.

Rachel Dolezal's mistake was downplaying her mental health where she thought about self-harm. Either that or liberals are illogical hypocrites as she is genetically closer to a black woman than a white man, something she'd be celebrated for.

i think this self identify age thing will present a bit of a conundrum for gender ideology people.

On the one hand, they'll want to support it because "Self Identifying" and compelling everyone around you to support it; is what matters. Mental health and all that stuff.

On the other hand however, it opens a pandoras box and steals the limelight from their own niche behavior, so will want to be against it.

Heck yeah! 16-year-old trans-agers can "identify" as 21 and buy beer!

Not supporting it would make them transphobic.

Transagephobic, but transphobic.

A 35 year old man could identify as a 15 year old girl and join a high school swim team.

It'd be hateful to not allow him in the girls locker room.

I'm betting that the gender ideology crowd don't touch this thread.
