"What's a woman?"
What's a man?
What is love?
Baby don't hurt me
Don't hurt me
No more
A miserable pile of secrets.
But enough talk, have at you!
I think the best response that's always worked for me is:
"Who cares!" Person riled up about this inclined to agree with me because they think I'm on the two genders "side of the debate". "Just try your best to call people what they want to be called and move on. If someone's name is x, try call them x, if they say 'I am a y', try calling them a y. If you get it wrong accidentally, oh well, just say sorry and try again. Why are we even still talking about this? It's such a non-issue"
Highly effective on those who aren't super conservative and just been swept up in the (in my opinion) astroturfed outrage.
That's why I like names, that's why we have em. When I first meet you, tell me your name and that's what I'll call you. The rest we can learn as we go
"FUCK!"
Wait no go back, you're getting a lecture filled with maximum toxicity!
a genetic experiment.
Everyone is an X until a weird little Y comes along.
I like the premise of the joke but it's confusing sex with gender. 😅
