      Again, laws are not supposed to be selectively applied. If they can put ‘man’ or ‘woman’ on any form, so can anyone else. Or do you think they need some sort of confirmation by a doctor before they’re allowed to fill out any sort of government forms?

          And so what if they do? Nobody is throwing you in jail for selecting the “wrong” box.

          Oh, so you can be whatever gender you want? We agree.

              Now you’re admitting that gender is a subjective thing based on societal norms. Which is the point.

                  We are talking about gender here. Gender is only identical with sex if the person so chooses to identify that way. If you think that’s “the way it’s done now,” you have been listening to too much conservative media.

                  The fact that you don’t understand all of this does not speak well of you.
