There is no difference, you can say your gender is a lighthouse if you wish, doesn't make it true.

If you have a willy, you're a man (male). If you have a fanny, you're a woman (female).
A tiny group of what's called intersex people are born with both.

Live your best life, be whomever you want to be but don't insist that everyone else calls an apple an orange.
You're still confusing sex and gender.

Gender is an artificial construct based on norms of behavior of people of male and female sex.
The vast majority of people match and fit with those norms to a very large degree. Some people don't, and some of those people are non-binary, and some have dysphoria from being forced to conform. Not really surprising, given the complexity of biology making it highly unlikely that the sex-related characteristics are simple switches.

I would just like us to pick an official non-binary pronoun set. We have "it" (singular, but can have negative connotations) or "they/them" (can be confused with plural). Then the symbol is either I or T and we're done.

I'd also like to congratulate ChrisW on the wonderful fishing expedition with the use of "all Genders" instead of "everybody".

You're confusing Nikki with someone with a modicum of awareness about anything.

You are aware that UK law only recognises two genders, male and female & although you can legally change your gender, it has to be to one of the following:

Male
Female

You can call yourself whatever you like and use whatever pronouns make you happy but you will be one of the two genders, either male or female.

Fact.

Although since UK law doesn't bar organisations from recognising non-binary genders (and some already do), UK law is irrelevant to this.

More particularly UK law doesn't care much about gender. Birth certificate and passports says sex, not gender. Driving licenses don't have sex or gender on them at all. The law allows transgender people to change the sex on official documentation to match their gender to reduce problems related to being transgender.

Also, it's worth noting that the 2021 UK Census included a question on gender identity, and, if different from sex at birth, the individual could fill in their own gender identity. The government accepts the existence of non-binary genders.

You are correct, the Government allows you to change gender - to male or female. You can go through gender reassignment surgery from male to female or female to male. These are the only two options for a gender change operation.

What you are describing as genders are actually just feelings, ie the 'gender' where you are only attracted to people far away, they have no legal standing.

Like I said before, if you wish to self certify as a lighthouse that's your business but you shouldn't expect the rest of the world to change to suit your mood.

Interesting that the census had the gender question.
I didn't know that. More interesting than how many windows does your house have.

I often identify as a window.

People identified as jedi warriors on the census form although not one of them could do the jedi mind trick and they didn't have working lightsabres or T16s.


The census asked first what sex you were, it then asked if you identify your gender as the same as your sex, this question was voluntary and only for over 16s iirc.

Why does it bother you do much? What difference does it make to you and your life?
Who said it bothers me?

Just stating a fact.
The amount of time you spend talking about this topic suggests it bothers you that's all.

When the generation x was growing up they thought their grandparents were a bit too racist.

The grandkids will no doubt look at some of this generation of 40-50 somethings as a bit genderist.

You are a short fat cunt with a fanny and a pair of tits, so what are you?
