"Gender is not determined by bodily characteristics …

Wealth is not determined by how much money you have.

Grade point average is not determined by how much you study.

Employability is not determined by what you major in.

Presidents are not determined by the Electoral College.

Of interest to all neurotics who can’t identify which sex they are.

“Universities across America actively advance the social revolution to redefine gender and normalize all permutations of sexual proclivity. “

Roughly translated, just another avenue to use in order to destroy Western civilization.

"Gender identity is the inward sense of being man, woman, both, neither, or any other gender(s). This identity is not visible. Gender expression is an outward means of expressing a person’s gender and can include mannerisms, clothing, hair, and other modes of expression."

Once they separate gender from biology, what is the basis for describing someone as a "man" or a "woman"? Can they answer that question without violating one or more of their premises?

After all, they dismiss clothing styles, hair styles, use of makeup, jewelry, etc., as arbitrary social conventions (which to some extent they are), so what is the source or essence of the "maleness" or "femaleness" that they claim? Particular feelings, like a sense of nurturing? Haven't those also been dismissed by the left as sexist remnants of "patriarchal" thinking?

[[It’s nice to see that our college students and their parents are paying a fortune to learn absolutely nothing of value.]]

The parents, IF they were smart- could save a lot of money and just sit their kids down and lie to them throughout the day- it would have the same effect as 4 years at some of these whacko ‘higher education’ centers

To which the appropriate professorial response should be: “I am your teacher, not your psychiatrist, therapist, pastor, or mommy. I hope you are happy and productive, but that is not my concern. Your inward mental state has nothing to do with our study of American history, chemistry, mathematics, political philosophy, etc. If you want to spend your college years wallowing in your innermost neuroses, go over to one of the garbage departments that goes in for that sort of thing. If you stay here, stow it.”

Gender is a term from linguistics, not biology.

The correct biological term is sex. Every mammal is divided into either the male or female sex

Gender is biological, not social.

Wrong. Sex is biological. Gender is linguistic.

Nature selected Sex (the genetic exchange between Male and Female) because Sex increases the fitness of species.

What "Gender Revolutionaries" have selected isn't Sex - but the delusional notion that they can choose their gender.

What's yours -- XX, XY, or Other?

>>Wrong. Sex is biological. Gender is linguistic.

Please quantify the reproductive fitness of linguistic semantic bullshyte?

All you need to do is document the number of reproductively viable offspring produced by the “linquistic” culture over multiple generations.

We’ll wait.

“Gender” applies to languages. Humans have sexual properties.

Huh? What are you talking about? How would words be able to reproduce? They're inanimate constructions. What "linguistic" culture are you talking about? What does that have to do with offspring?

Maybe it’s the same way Useful Idiots, who think they can change their gender, reproduce.
