This is how Post-Structuralism (Deconstructionism) works. War is peace, right is wrong ...

Now I met some of the “I think I’m an alien” people years ago.

I have met one or two of those people too.

It all started by changing a term denoting physical traits; i.e., sex, with a grammatical term, denoting linguistic differences; i.e., gender. One of the best illustrations of deconstructionism available.

Sorry, John; but gender is a social construct.

Sex, however, is not.

We are already killing babies, that are called non-babies, for profit.

Now, we are being indoctrinated by those we elected, that there is no difference between male and female. That means that there can be no founded explanation for childbirth of the human race.

This is not the queer agenda, it is the toe in the doorway of population control through the acceptance of NO childbirth, because it would be illegal to be either a male or a female.

That we are even having this insane discussion now makes me think it might simply be inevitable. This reminds me of 15-20 years before ‘gay marriage’ was finally just imposed like it really wasn’t a big deal or whatever. What, are we going to have state referendums on if we dig men using women’s sex exclusive areas or not? That sounds familiar.

In the fifties we were taught in grade school that gender was a term that applied to words, not people. Now it appears that advanced degree holders don’t understand that.

Of course neither is race but we keep pretending that doesn't exist either.

actually “gender” is a construct.

sex is biology and corrct term.

Gender is a construct and is whatever people want to believe about it.

Like the tooth-fairy, another construct.

Sorry, Liberals, But Gender Sex Is Not a “Social Construct”.

The word gender has to do with grammar, not the sex of humans unless you are obsessed with political correctness.

I teach a college level Introduction to Sociology course. And the textbook (Macionis’ “Introduction to Sociology” a standard textbook)) states clearly that Gender is mainly a “social construct.”
Students are being indoctrinated with this.

Sex is the word used to describe the distinction between male and female. There are only two sexes.
Gender refers to Spanish nouns. It has nothing to do with humans.
The Gender movement exists because the left hates the words “male and female he created them.”

I don’t recall hearing the word “Gender” 10 years ago.

Think sex is a superfluity? Three words: national football league. When a female goes to the super bowl as a starting O lineman, women will have proved equality

Bingo. Denying what you were created to be is the ultimate rebellion against the Creator.

Liberal logic: we have to segregate based on race for the comfort and safety of ethnic minorities, but we don’t have to segregate for the safety and comfort of the female sex

Your BC tells your gender. It is never wrong.

So . . . libs believe that "gender" is a "social construct" . . . but that their G-dless concepts of "morality," "ethics," and "social justice" are not???
