I find it INCREDIBLE that people think this ideology is "freeing" people from stereotypes and that those of us who think it's bollocks somehow believe that everyone should fit in gender boxes. If you think this, you've no clue as to what we actually believe. Exact opposite.
You have a personality (you, with an infinite variety of traits regardless of what sex you are and all that makes you you) and you have a body. Your body. Unfortunately, our societies which are various degrees of patriarchal, tell us that one type body 'should' be and behave
in some ways, and the other should be and behave in others and that it's 'secondary' to the other. That men should be 'manly' and 'in charge' and women 'womanly' and subservient. This is "sex stereotypes" and the more patriarchal the society,
the more rigidily those will be enforced and, especially, punished if you step outside those. WE are fighting against patriarchy and those stupid, sexist boxes. WE believe in being ourselves regardless of what 'society' says, and do not assign labels of 'male' and 'female' to
personalities, just factually to our bodies. "Woman" and "Man" are NOT personality traits, people. Gender ideologists, on the other hand are with the patriarchy all the way and saying 'yes, those are true' and yes, those personalities are what makes you men or women, AND
you should medicalise your body to match.' They do nothing in reality, I'm afraid, to stop misogynists treating one set of sexed people as superior to the other.
Why on earth are people labelling personalities as 'male' and 'female' as in "gender identity". If you do this, you are feebly supporting patriarchy, not opposing it in any way. I cannot understand why this is so hard to comprehend.
It's like there's a complete inability to compute that not everybody uses the "gender id" framework at all and that there are others. Better, more freeing ones, imo. The brainwashing into the ideology as the only way to think is just astonishing.
