Period.
That's physical sex, which is form and function. For the crass among us: twigs and berries, etc. That is physical sex. Gender is in the brain, and is not static for everyone.

They are afraid of everyone--liberals, LGBT people, intellectuals, secularists, strong women, brown people, the media, scientists...it's oddly.paranoid.
Oh, is that right?

I am a Trump supporter. I am also a minority and gay. So no, you are wrong. Trump "lemmings" like me are not afraid of everyone.

So how, exactly, does what some kid approximately 3,504 miles away from you, whom you are never likely to meet harm you by wearing a skirt to school? If his parents think it's ok, why not let them decide what's best for their child, and keep your nose out of other people's business?

Period.
The distinction between sex and gender differentiates sex (the anatomy of an individual's reproductive system, and secondary sex characteristics) from gender, which can refer to either social roles based on the sex of the person (gender role) or personal identification of one's own gender based on an internal awareness (gender identity).

In some circumstances, an individual's assigned sex and gender do not align, and the person may be transgender, non-binary, or gender-nonconforming. In some cases, an individual may have biological sex characteristics that complicate sex assignment, and the person may be intersex.

From the start of Trump's campaign many have insulted us. They started off with our intelligence and they did not stop there. Heck, the other day I heard Bill Maher call our First Lady a "hooker" and he has also called Trump's son a 'date rapist'. The liberals would have burned out his studio if he had tried that with Michelle or their daughters. When did it ever become politically correct to attack a 10 year old kid!

While I am not gay; I am an atheist. I also was a Democrat for most of my life. This extreme left cannot see how stupid they look when they make these clueless accusations and lump everybody together.

It's a part of the slow but gradual breakdown of our society's cultural structure. The blurring of the sexes, the effeminizing of men and emasculation of women. There are seen and unforeseen circumstances. For example, already we are seeing a trend of low birth rates below replacement levels in westernized countries. Women going into the workforce plays a big part in that. Countries in Europe are accepting immigrants because they lack enough workers. Overtime, both due to immigration and low birth rates among the Europeans and high birth rates for the immigrants, the Europeans will become extinct, along with all their so-called progressive values. Ironic indeed.

Good grief,i thought this madness was contained to America but,i was wrong.This nonsense to me just seems to be just like a cult.These persons(i'm not sure what terminology to use)are being accommodated by adults who really should know better.I shudder to think what the coming decades will look like when this stuff is seen as "normal!.Heaven help us all.
Folks pick they damnedest things to get all in a fuss about.

I have it on good authority that a Scottish man wearing a kilt is not to be trifled with.
