In support of the suggestion that even 1984 is not taking it far enough, the Democrat party controlled House of Representatives is apparently proposing a rules package for this next term which would erase 'gendered terms' such as Father, Mother, Son and Daughter.

Quote:
Proposed House Rules Seek To Erase Gendered-Terms Such As 'Father', 'Mother', 'Son', & 'Daughter'

Leaders in the House of Representatives announced on Friday a rules package for the 117th Congress that includes a proposal to use “gender-inclusive language” and eliminate gendered terms such as “‘father, mother, son, daughter,” and more.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Rules Committee Chairman James McGovern (D-Mass.) announced on Friday that the rules package includes changes that would “honor all gender identities by changing pronouns and familial relationships in the House rules to be gender neutral.”

A separate announcement from McGovern (pdf) said that the Democratic rules package will make “Changes [to] pronouns and familial relationships in the House rules to be gender neutral or removes references to gender, as appropriate, to ensure we are inclusive of all Members, Delegates, Resident Commissioners and their families—including those who are nonbinary.”
Let's be clear. There are two sexes, male and female. Or if you prefer, man and woman, or boy and girl. It is all the same. If you have a Y chromosome, you are a male. If you only have X chromosomes, you are a female.

This 'nonbinary' business is the talk of true lunatics who are gaslighting our society in an absolutely monstrous and evil manner. Seeing this being formally proposed for adoption into the rules of the US House of Representatives is a clear validation of the concerns that people have that the Democrat left is openly advocating for the destruction of our society in any traditional sense and that they are enabling the agendas of some serious psychopaths to the detriment of the normal population of people.

My husband had mentioned this. So, what would be the new terminology? I am sure they would object to me referring to my father as "my male parent", so how would I refer to him, and I know "him" and "male" couldn't be used either as we might offend those that are mixed up about biology among other things. My kids? How are they to be referred to? Maybe "It #1 loin fruit" and "It #2 loin fruit"? Would be appropriate to mention they have a "penis" to help with my description or would that also be offensive? And, I'm their "bearer of their life"? Oh, wait that "loin fruit" would be wrong as that has Biblical meaning and would surely be struck down.

Screw it! My Father, my mother, my grandmother, my grandfather, my daughter-in-law, my uncles, my aunts, my female cousins, my male cousins, and my husband is a male (which I am sure will eventually be something forbidden to say). None of my family is genderless, and I will never address them as being such and will oppose any legislation to take away the biology of humanity. This is insanity, and needs to stay out of reach of nutcases like Pelosi.

Even the genderless have fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters, sons and daughters. While there are variations other than XX and XY, the number is small and most of this genderless crap is only existing in the heads of people who really need to find a hobby!

We can designate those that consider themselves "genderless" as NG (no gender) and the rest of us can stick with F & M. Changing the way the government addresses "people" would be the first step in making us all fall in line with this insanity.

Pelosi is bat-poop crazy anyway.

Who EXACTLY proposed it, would be interesting to know.
We need more names by now, not just "proposed house rules."

As House Speaker, I am pleased to join Chairman Jim McGovern in introducing this visionary rules package, which reflects the views and values of the full range of our historically diverse House Democratic Majority,” said Speaker Nancy Pelosi. “Thanks to the leadership of Chairman McGovern and our Members, Democrats have crafted a package of unprecedented, bold reforms...."

The insanity continues. This country is months from its dissolution. When madness such as this is openly embraced by the highest levels of our government it provides more proof of the terminal condition of our nation.

A once proud country reduced to this.

Gotcha, thanks.


As I've said, after Biden appointed the Monsanto person as a head of the agricultural department, the *Democrats* have specific agenda on their minds, that is not necessarily all that "democratic."

Monsanto made a fine version of Agent Orange, worked well.
