I agree with you of course. In this case though... this is part of an ongoing "there are now 18345 genders and sexual orientations" conversation and it is pure stupidity and an example of shameless virtue signaling run amok. We have a significant part of our society now that gain currency among peers by either playing the victim or by pretend to care about the victim. Now we have been told for years now is a social construct and have to use indescribably stupid terms like "assigned at birth" as if basic genetics no long exists.
Personally, I could care less what someones sexual habits/proclivities are. I have no opinion at all. But we now live in a world where CA schools are trying to teach pedophilia as a sexual orientation to children or that genders are just imagined by hateful christians and crap like that.
There are only two genders. Plain and simple. Men and women have numerous physiological and neurobiological differences. We are not the same. We are distinctly different in well over 1000 well documented ways. No one is well served when we let a tiny minority of mentally ill people insist that obvious facts are no longer true and that if you agree with basic, fundamental biology and genetics, you are now a bigot... and it's that larger crowd calling others hateful and bigoted for not wanting a man in a skirt to be allowed in a elementary school girls restroom. It's completely insane that we now live in a society where these are discussions and even policy discussions... all because there's social currency for a shameless group in pretending to care .
There has to be balance with "tolerance" as a society. We should not oppress people based on race, religion etc... but we as a society should also not allow lunatics to exploit that tolerance to force everyone to accept everything, no matter how insane or factually wrong the premise is, or be labeled a bigot, either.
