    That sounds like a lot of work. This must be that government efficiency we’re told to expect.

      For real though. This amount of bike shedding is ridiculous. Like maybe work on those grocery prices you promised. At least that would be useful.

    All of gender? It would be funny if we inadvertently got a discussion about the difference between sex and gender out of this with people acknowledging that discussing gender at all is patiently different from discussing sex.

    The US can’t stop being extremist.

    I have high criticism of the “gender spectrum” philosophy for trying to turn exact science into fuzziness. Non-binary being the best example of that, since it just means gender-confused or some form of transgender (x-to-agender) rather than being a fifth gender of some sorts.

    But LGBT, gender and transgender are accurate terms (if used correctly) and banning them will only add to more confusion.

      have high criticism of the “gender spectrum” philosophy for trying to turn exact science into fuzziness.

      I will direct anyone thinking this to the gender accelerationist manifesto. Gender has never been an exact science and a strict binary has historically been imposed to create more reliable subjects for capitalism.
