It seems the self-serving 'gender identity freedom movement' have now made things so complicated that they are starting to squabble amongst themselves. Let's get some things straight - there are men and women and in very rare circumstances - hermaphrodites. Anything other than that is a human-made-up mess. Pure and simple. Let's be clear here - there are men who prefer men & women who prefer women. I have no problem with that at all. Good luck to them if they find happiness with a person of the same gender. Not my cup of tea but each to their own. But when humans can't accept the fact that they are either male or female anatomically, then they have a very different problem indeed. History shows that whenever humans screw with nature they basically create a new problem where one did not exist before. The chicken always comes home to roost.

And what is even more interesting is the fact that this has all come about since the introduction of social media sites. The 'freedom of speech' movement are very quick to shut someone down when that person's views are diametrically opposed to their own. Then 'freedom of speech' does not seem to apply equally to all. But everyone forgets - with freedom comes greater responsibility - always!      

Confusion reigns supreme...

Sad that a seasoned academic has to be forced out of her profession by a bunch of clowns who have not even matured yet. Simply because it's the latest fashion trend. It's a disgrace.
