It's a "flap doodle" bait and switch conjuring trick, playing on the ambiguity of a word like gender which can have different meanings in different contexts. In one context it has been used interchangeably to refer to sex, in another context it's used to describe social roles deemed appropriate for a human being according to which sex a person may be. Gender ideology arguments switch the context in the background argument whilst retaining the same word in the foreground argument so suddenly a person with the body of a man can claim that his real "sex" is that of a woman, simply because he feels more comfortable with or more attracted to having the gender role society normally ascribes to women. Leading to absurdities, confusion and outlandishly impossible psuedo metaphysical ideas such as it being possible for a human being to be "born in the wrong body".
Gender ideologues insist that we should all take care not to conflate sex and gender - ironically because they are ones who doing so more than anyone.
"Gender ideologues insist that we should all take care not to conflate sex and gender - ironically because they are ones who doing so more than anyone." Yes this exactly this!
I know two people who love trains, since childhood, they have learned all about them. They each have model trains, but love the actual locomotives, the history and lore of trains. One is a man, one is a woman. Just think, if they decided to be transgender, they could keep their love of trains and still have their identities intact. They could swap each other’s identities if they choose. (They don’t know each other though).
The idea presented in this article shines a whole new light on the situation.
