I’ll be honest, i’ve got no idea.
I know that i don’t really care about gender identities, if someone asks me nicely to use “they/them” or something else weird (i’m old fashioned), i’ll do it with the caveat that if i at some point forget or not entirely focussed on that issue, they don’t get furious.
If someone demands something of me “they” can jog right on. It reminds me of one of my favourite sentences of Lethal Weapon I. I’m too old for this shit. If they wanna be weird, be weird. I’ve been weird in my youth, but i didn’t expect the world to change around me. I will accommodate the weirdness (if asked nicely), but if you’re going to be a douchebag about it, nah. They’ll outlive me, so eventually the problem solves itself with the latest generation being “woke af”.
No need for me to bend over backwards for a Tic Toc teen still slimy behind the ears. I know i’ll get some hate for that, but that’s where i stand and that’s how it’s going to go for me.
I’ll not go up to a child and tell him that it’s “gay” to play with dolls or something – i do agree that old fashioned “gender roles” are idiotic. Some of the best mechanics i’ve met in my lifetime were female, and played with cars etc at young age. That’s entirely okay. Since there’s two issues mixed here in this topic (gender roles and gender identity), there really isn’t a simple answer to it.
