If the person talking to her is white, it'll just be another talking to from The Man, which she'll ignore.

If it's a brother, he'll say he understands but to cut that poo poo out while in uniform.

If it's a LGBTQIA, then she first gets the talk from above, depending on race, then a rant about how it's not boys and girls that are allowed to get married anymore and it's inappropriate to assume the gender of the one being shot and who will be the surviving parent.

I'm guessing stern talking to and possibly minor paperwork.

I believe it's because it's a lack of any sexual identity or preference, therefore it wouldn't fall into any category of the LGBTQIA BBQ/TIA acronym.

Same except 'genderqueer' and 'intersex'. I don't know what they are but they both sound like "What I consider my gender to be and the genders of people whom I gently caress differ from the conventional way it's done". :toot: Go for it, do your thing. I'm just picturing a parent screaming at a sobbing teenager "NO you can't date her, you KNOW we're intersexual and they're genderqueer AND THAT'S FINAL"

If someone knows the difference and wants to explain it to a goddamn caveman then :allears: otherwise please more military people doing really dumb poo poo.

Intersex is not a preference thing, it's literally someone born with ambiguous genitals/are some combination of chromosomes other than XX/XY. Genderqueer is a catchall for the various flavors of non-binary identity, including stuff like the various third-genders in Native American tradition.

"Genderqueer" is a term for someone who doesn't really feel male or female, like a trans person who feels equally apart from both of the established genders.

An intersex person is actually a medical thing, what a lot of people call a hermaphrodite. They end up with genitalia and reproductive systems that don't firmly fall under male or female. They suffer a lot of problems in society, one of which is surgeons and/or parents deciding that the baby that came out with ambiguous genitals needs some surgical work to "fix" them.

In the list I found, A was for ally, where you're not one of them but you support them. In the ally training we had to go through, the instructor listed whatever list of letters was the most common at that time but she also said that it's always changing and different groups might not include some people. Like you can have some gay rights groups that are completely loving against bisexuals because you have to either be a lesbian or a gay guy.

When I was working at a college, I was working on a scholarship application and our director wanted me to find every single gender that anyone could ever self-identify with. Once I had my list up to a few dozen, and still being able to find more, I was able to talk her into just doing male/female/decline to answer. We didn't have any scholarships that asked for anything other than male/female, so I figure we could add in more if we had any new ones that started asking for other stuff.

She also wanted the application to be tested in every version of every browser in existence. I wasn't sad when she finally retired.

There's not a lot of conversation about it. For the longest time, babies born with ambiguous or strange genitals would have surgery done on them as a matter of course to make them more normal. Sometimes this surgery didn't work right and they ended up mutilated.

We're in a pretty radical time in terms of gender theory, since we've only just hit the time when first-world countries are starting to question the old theories on gender and sexuality and (more importantly) stop viewing everything other than straight and cisgender as an abomination unto God. Bisexuals (which I kinda am?) get shat on a lot even by gay people for "not picking a side" or being a "traitor" for having a heterosexual relationship, and some even think bisexuals don't exist at all and they just haven't decided on their sexuality yet.

Yeah, I only tangentially get involved in this sort of thing (and try to tread softly when I do), but there does seem to be a lot of back-biting about who's legitimate or what.

Not ashamed to admit I didn't know about much about intersex, as a concept past "it's gots both doodads!", until that article on Cracked.

That's basically my go to behaviour when people begin to try and force whatever brand of their bullshit is on me. Ignore them, get up and walk away when they are in the middle of a diatribe, play with my phone, read a book.

Don't give them what they want, which is attention.

It must really suck for LGBT people when random other groups try hitching their trailer to their cause. I've seen all sorts of internet randos try to legitimize their cause by hopping on, furries are the worst, but asexuals are pretty bad about it too. Most asexuals are just dorks that can't get women to touch their dicks so they decide it's because they CHOOSE not to have women touch their dicks, and then there are the actual people with legitimately no sexual drive for various medical reasons just kind of lost in a sea of obnoxious nerds complaining about Those Sexuals having sex with each other all the time like the real world is like some National Lampoon direct to DVD movie.
