Most people are "binary" people.
If somebody wants to identify as "X" or whatever, no skin off my back.
I, by default, call a person who looks like a woman "she," and a person who looks like a man "he." I've only been wrong a couple of times.
I would resent it if somebody expresses resentment to me about my lack of knowledge of their gender identity, without them informing me about it. That wouldn't be fair. That's actually happened to me. This transsexual looked male, so I said "thank you, sir." She didn't like that.
If somebody wants me to call them "ze" or whatever, I'll comply. But just tell me. Don't expect me to know, instinctually, that you want to be called "ze." This has never happened to me, though.
Yes, but it makes a very simple thing complicated. Sex and gender being different. It's weird. Like say, a cop gets a call about a man robbing a store, then he has to ask, am I looking for a male or a female? Does this man identify as a female?.
Does the confusion try to rename men and woman? Or are they suggesting that men can be female or male and women can be male or female. It's completely ridiculous!
