Andrew Lynch On April 30, 2016, Buzzfeed published an article about a teenager who "cannot" open a bank account because they are non-binary genderfluid, and do not "identify" as male or female. The article also reports on the struggle to apply to a university when a binary gender is required on the application.
Let's unpack this for a moment. Kaelin, who was born a female and has female biology, can’t apply for a bank account or university because she won't check the box that says "female.” Her family is complaining that she has been discriminated against because of this, and are spoiling for a fight. This is insane. It is literally insanity. A mental delusion. And one people need to stop humoring. According to gender theorists and activists, gender is separate from sex and how one "identifies.” This results in the idea that male and female as we know it are simply social constructs, and any expectations of said genders are also social constructs. Further, they claim that gender itself is a fluid concept, a spectrum range, to which one can be anywhere between male and female and sometimes change depending on the minute. Do you see the contradiction yet? If gender is a social construct and has no basis in biology, gender itself does not exist. If societal expectations of a gender such as dress and fashion are also simply social constructs, then why choose to "transition" or present as another gender at all? If so, they are confirming that social expectations of the gender do matter, and that there is an important part of the biology. If, as they say, a transgendered man can have a female sexual biology and vice versa, then gender loses all meaning. Again, it is rooted merely in feelings and how one chooses to identify. And if that is the basis you have to go on, and social expectations can be removed, then there is only one standard that matters. What is that standard? Sexual biology. Why? Because that is objective, measurable, and you know what parts you have. You could identify as an Apache attack helicopter and still be able to check a box to say what parts you have. Public restrooms? Go in the room that corresponds with your biological sex, since sex is different from gender. Too many in this generation have decided their feelings outweigh such things as science and biology. And people are enabling this under the idea that we cannot tell them they are wrong, that we must support the way they choose to live. Forget that. Gender is a binary. It is inherently rooted in biology. Gender is sex and sex is gender. This is a fact. To teach otherwise is insanity. Gender dysphoria is real and those affected need to be supported and understood. And then they need to seek treatment for it. Enabling the delusion is not healthy to those that suffer, nor healthy to society. Let's stop denying reality.

Agreed, except that gender dysphoria is a result of the brain developing to be somewhat more like the opposite sex of the body. Not a psychological delusion. The only viable treatment we have for gender dysphoria is medical transition and hrt; counselling, behavioral therapy and medication just don't work.

"Gender is a binary. It is inherently rooted in biology. Gender is sex and sex is gender. This is a fact. To teach otherwise is insanity." Wrong. Neuroscientists confirm since almost a decade that the human brain is unisex, means gender is a product of society. "femininity" and "masculinity" are social constructs. Sex is not a feeling.

No, categorically wrong there are only 2 genders male and female, it is dictated by our genome. If tour are born a male and think you are female then unfortunately you are suffering from sever mental problems.. we need to stop complimenting these ideas and forcing a stop to them. Its not healthy for the human race never mind the individual to accept these backwards ideas. We need to treat them

I identify as genderfluid. I have female genitalia, So my Sex is female. However, I believe that gender and sex are two different things. Sex is what you have between your legs, and Gender is what you feel in your heart and brain. I understand your logic, but I am here to tell you my point of view.

This article points out quite well the nonsense that is passing for truth in our dysfunctional society today. The use of the term "transphobia" is particularly telling.

I don't think this post is necessarily anything-phobic. It's just stating an opinion. And no, it's not like fascism or killing babies or anything. I don't either see the logic in separating sex from gender, but arguing that sex must follow gender. I disagree with the author on that gender is binary, but what I would argue is that sex IS binary and in formalities, non-binary gender-identifying people should just use their biological sex, to keep things simple. No one asks what political ideology I identify myself with when I'm applying for a passport, why should they bother about my gender? It seems to be equally malleable.

There is a simpler answer. The term 'gender' should just be abandoned in relation to sexual medicine and sexual politics. People with 'gender dysphoria' have sexual dysphoria or maybe sex-role dysphoria. Other medical terms would be improved by replacing 'gender' with 'sex' in the same way as that would make them clear and unambiguous without any loss of value. There is no such thing as gender except as a grammatical category. The pseudo-scientific concept of gender that is so familiar today was introduced by John Money in the 1950s and the results of applying his theories were so appalling that his clinic at Johns Hopkins was closed down: and now the same madness is being repeated on a massive scale. Of course there are various kinds of intersex and transsexual people, and they deserve sympathy and support, but these people are swamped now by people who are not intersex or transsexual in any biological way, but who have been persuaded that they are part of the 'transgender community'. Girls, straight or gay, who like to dress as boys have been around at least since the 1950s, and nobody minds. What is the point of pretending that they are 'really' men due to their gender which in some way nobody can never quite pin down is claimed to be a kind of magical extra quality that is different from their sex but cannot be observed or measured? When it comes to boys who like to dress as girls then there are two main possibilities. One is that they are transvestites, a perfectly clear and accurate term. The other, sadly the more prevalent one, is that it is all just pretend and they are doing it as adolescent attention-seeking behaviour, reinforced by a student culture in which they gain status at school or college by behaving like this. They know they can just change their minds later. I say 'sadly' because the danger is that they will believe their new secret identity is real, and may be led to life-changing surgery or dangerous drug treatments, the long-term consequences of which are still unknown. (The female-to-male treatments are also dangerous, but probably less so, and also less frequently prescribed.) The disadvantages of adopting the term 'gender' vastly outweigh any alleged advantages. It encourages people to think they can replace biology with ideology. In Sweden today, government policy is that all university policy decisions must be made according to 'gender science'. This is a science that does not exist: it is what is called 'gender studies' in other countries, exactly because even its proponents know they are not scientists. Real scientists who use the term 'gender' should just stop doing so unless they can provide meaningful and non-ideological reasons for continuing with this destructive practice.

Your chromosome is what you are. Binary means two. You cannot undo it. So cut away and mutilate yourself and be a freak. Or just be happy and gay. Don't think for one second that anyone who isn't mental such as yourself thinks you are not some mental idiot or freak for cutting up your man and woman parts.. Just look at your suicide rate. You go full transition. And kill yourself because you destroyed yourself. Foolish. Keep your parts and be you.

People who commit suicide often do so because they have a mental illness. Trans and nonbinary people have high rates of mental illness. No, the rest of the world does not have to go with delusions in order to save them.

Odd that the very same people who argue against "gender norms" are the ones who emulate the "norms" they themselves associate with their "gender identity" and possibly mutilate themselves to achieve the illusion of being the opposite sex. If gender is not exclusive to sex, why emulate the normative of the opposite sex? There's a distinctive lack or rationality to their argument.

Non-binary is not a thing. Genderfluid is not a thing. There is no such thing as 3 or 4 or 100 different genders. There are two: female or male. Period. A lot of great points have been made in this article and the comments below it. You are what you are born as, period. Dressing differently, getting surgery, taking medication, stating you're not does not change that biological fact. And if you're really not male or female, then why do you continue to dress and act and model yourself as male or female? Please show me an actual example of something else. This whole trend is absolutely insane, and to pretend otherwise is detrimental to society as a whole. The uprise in people wanting mental illnesses taken more seriously has had a huge and unfortunate side effect it seems. Suicide rates are high with these people because they have mental disorders that are not being treated, but are instead being embraced as something normal that society should remodel itself to include. It's honestly ridiculous, and I wish I didn't have to raise my children in this bubble of insanity.
