    Let's skip gender identity altogether. Ignoring what people decide to identify themselves as, how many genders are there?

    I respect an individual's personal gender identity, whether female or male.

    I do not feel that can be imposed by authoritarians, no more that right- or left-handedness.

    Yours is a disparate matter from females opposed to authoritarian politicians abrogating their reproductive freedom.

    Perhaps you misunderstood my post. I asked, if you ignore what people identify what their gender is, how many genders are there?

    Of him saying that what he wished they had in common was sex, but since she's his daughter, he has to say golf instead? You are seriously going to play like you don't remember that?

    As I noted, I respect a person's right to gender identity. Do you?

    Based on those numbers you better hope you don't get 4 more years of Biden.

    If you do, then women, hispanics and blacks will be majority Republican.

    Individuals recognize their own sexual identities. In some cases, gender identity does not coincide with their physical characteristics.

    Medical science recognizes and respects this reality.

    Authoritarians want to dictate to everyone.

    Well then women could easily solve their problems by just identifying as men.

    How can you even do that? Today we have many many genders. At least according to those of you left of center.

    There is nothing "tricky" about respecting how individuals acknowledge themselves, nor medical science.

    People rather respect who they know themselves to be, and be respected accordingly.

    Medical Science knows the identity that is assigned at birth. You just want to force others to play your mental gymnastics. You can mutilate and reassign all you want and "science" can always reveal the true gender. It is authoritarian the way you want to force others to think through the power of government!

    You prefer your ideological dogma to scientific reality. Authoritarians refuse to respect a person's gender identity.

    The American Medical Association (AMA) today urged governors to oppose state legislation that would prohibit medically necessary gender transition-related care for minor patients, calling such efforts “a dangerous intrusion into the practice of medicine.” In a letter to the National Governors Association (NGA), the AMA cited evidence that trans and non-binary gender identities are normal variations of human identity and expression, and that forgoing gender-affirming care can have tragic health consequences, both mental and physical.

    “Decisions about medical care belong within the sanctity of the patient-physician relationship,” the AMA wrote in its letter. “As with all medical interventions, physicians are guided by their ethical duty to act in the best interest of their patients and must tailor recommendations about specific interventions and the timing of those interventions to each patient’s unique circumstances. Such decisions must be sensitive to the child’s clinical situation, nurture the child’s short and long-term development, and balance the need to preserve the child’s opportunity to make important life choices autonomously in the future. We believe it is inappropriate and harmful for any state to legislatively dictate that certain transition-related services are never appropriate and limit the range of options physicians and families may consider when making decisions for pediatric patients.”

    Ideological dogmatists are in denial of several matters of knowledge-based science, including epidemiology, virology, and climatology.

    This is still ridiculous but trending in the right direction.

    We already know where Trump stands.

    Are these the same scientists that gave us COVID and lied to conceal it?

    If wallowing in ignorance and paranoia serves your ideological agenda, science denial is a good place to start.

    I am unfamiliar with your "Frazier Crane" but merely note that I respect science.

    If that offends your ideological dogma, so be it.

    Frazier Crane is America's favorite pompous ass. Look him up, he's fun to watch. He is a master of 10 cent words!
