Many of these fools say they don't believe in man made gender identities, they then say they are a man or a woman, which are gender identities

Someone who uses she/his pronouns aren't as well?

Isn't it insulting to be forced to deny reality under the threat of losing one's job?

Oh good, OP, you're back! Can you share a little more about the young person described in your original post? Was this situation described in a news story or do you know this person?

You don't have to go along with it if you disagree. Don't let them indoctrinate you to the woke. Just say you can't do that because it goes against what you believe. Stand up for you. Don't cave in just to be nice. Giving in to something one disagrees with irritates me.

Here's a simple guide:

If you were born a female you are "she/her."

If you were born a male you are "he/him."

It's idiocracy that we have to state that nowadays.

A great statement in reply:

"Your self perception is none of my business."

And walk away.

This is a young woman, correct? She does not identify as a male? So what is the story? Why is she protesting patriarchy?

Probably not. I'd love for the OP to come back and further explain the situation.
