And then people wonder why the schools are always begging for more money and the education given is shitty.

I still am having trouble with the concept of genderqueer. I used to think I was pretty easy going. Love who you want, fuck who you want, marry who you want. Gays, straights, lesbians, bisexuals, got it. I even get the people with bad body dysmorphia who went to series of psychiatrists and got hormones and surgery as soon as they could. My cousin was like that. I remember her being angry that she was a girl when she was six.
Now we have transgender and gender queer. I still don't understand what a genderqueer is and why I'm now being forced to diagram out someone's sexual or gender orientation.
Tell me if I'm wrong (and yes, I know I'm posting in pussy pass)...so a genderqueer would be a woman who maybe doesn't want to take hormones, but dresses like a man, thinks she is gay, and dates men? I read something about a women who identified as queer and had a boyfriend. She didn't understand why his family didn't understand that she was not a straight woman.
Sorry for the long post, but I'm honestly getting confused.

I'm so with you. I don't understand the whole more than 2 genders thing.
You're a man, you're a woman or you're transitioning from one to the other. I just can't wrap my head around it.
And I'm probably a weird person, at least on this sub, but I like gender neutral pro nouns. Not because I want to appease snow flakes but because, in my mind, "they" is firmly plural.
[–]chubbyronin 7 points8 points9 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Nah, "they" is also used for gender-unspecified, and was long before this whole non-binary bullshit.

(that page also makes note of the singular "you" similarly being used in the plural with no complaints from anyone.)

they do not identify as a man or a woman. its nothing to do with sexuality, but self identification. the person you described (a woman who maybe doesn't want to take hormones, but dresses like a man, thinks she is gay, and dates men) could still possibly identify as a man, a woman, or neither. for example, a birthed female who identifies as them, could be solely interested in men

This is fucking retarded.

One way to think of gender is as a color spectrum. If men represent blue and women represent red, genderqueer people may be a different color or somewhere in between, like purple. If you're a guy, you can in a way feel it - you feel comfortable having it within your sense of identity and it equates to being more than what you had between your legs at birth. Likewise, genderqueer people can "feel" not being strictly male or female.
Sexual orientation doesn't correlate with gender identity, but they sometimes relate, e.g. I remember reading that a marginally big portion of transwomen are lesbians or bisexual.
Sadly some of them act entitled and expect everyone to perfectly empathize with them, but it's a vocal minority. It's difficult to really wrap your head around, so most of them don't really get offended by the confusion as long as you're not rude.
[–][deleted] 3 points4 points5 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Then why are transgender and gender queer lumped together with lesbian, gay, and bisexual? Those are sexual orientations.
[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
If you mean in the context of LGBTQ, I guess it's because they're all minorities (with a history of discrimination) in a somewhat similar matter since gender - yours or other people's - is a key part in both.

genderqueer
The subject of the post (teacher in the pic) perfectly exemplifies genderqueer - ugly to the point that your actual gender is indistinguishable, and co-opting trans rights for attention and special treatment

This topic is way over my head too.
[–][deleted] 10 points11 points12 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
The more I read about this, the more pissed I get. A genderqueer or transgender shouldn't be explaining that shit to elementary kids. I don't care what sexual orientation the teacher is, but when you are confusing 8 year olds about gender issues, then I'm against it. Want to teach highschool or college, fine. Leave the non gender conforming bullshit out of elementary school.

After they didn’t call them they.

Always thought it was a figure of speech, never realized it was an actual person saying all those things.
