all of are kids are now gender confused all of our females are now feminists (lesibans) and vegans we our not allowed to eat meet or call are selves men without offending everyone the world has gone insane i wish everyone WOULD STOP GETTING SO ANGRY stop telling us how to live are lives and stop being vegan and femisist and gender confused you should not be aloud to tell others how to live there lives so stop being vegan
--------------------------------
Notwithstanding the atrocious spelling and grammar I'll try and give my thoughts on this.
The gender issue is a difficult one but I agree that letting children decide which gender they want to be is especially dangerous as children don't have the mental capacity to understand this and those who insist on having irreversible physical changes to their bodies (only a small percentage I know) cannot fully appreciate the magnitude of this. There's also an undisputed correlation between mental issues / autism and gender dysfunction but pointing this out in today's society makes you a bigot or someone who apparently lacks any compassion, which is nonsense.
Feminism in principle is a nobel cause but today's modern third wave feminism has become rotten and toxic beyond belief. This constant insistence that women are paid less than men for the same job (they aren't) is at best a terrible misinterpretation of statistics and at worst a pernicious lie. The feminists' accusations of manliness an being 'toxic' and insistence that we live in a tyrannical patriarchy are not only untrue but dangerous. It's a terrible notion to force on men and to try to indoctrinate young girls with. The latest example of this manifesting in that reprehensible Gillette advert.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
As much as I wholeheartedly agree with some well articulated points there,
their forcing are kids to be gender confused santa is not black santa is a man doctor who a women we are not aloud it the other way around there would never be a man playing a womans part in a play or tv or film because it would offend to many people not aloud to do anything heard their going to ban the army cos the poppy is now offensive???
'Undisputed' may be a slight exaggeration on my part. I don't have any specific links I can attach though I'm sure there are some studies if you search the web. However there are a significant number of people who have gender issues who also suffer from mental health issues. The problem is that is you allege this you are accused of lacking compassion and empathy.
I don't think gender reassignment surgery is necessarily the answer either. For example the suicide rate for transgender people barely falls after reassignment surgery, which suggests there are mental issues at play.

People who shout 'snowflake' are complaining they can't get away with saying what they could before, and without exception those things are always punching-down on a minority of some description, be it gender, ethnicity, class etc.
As said by previous responses, it's lightning-rod for the present culture war being co-opted by grifters and opportunists.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes I agree to an extend. In some respects political correctness is clearly a good thing, racism laws etc.
However there is definitely an element of this that has gone too far; from trivial yet ridiculous exmples such as google removing the egg from their salad emoji for fear of offending vegans, to the white washing of Kipling's work on university campus, to the massive failures in the teen grooming scandal.
We have failed miserably as a society in defining what's offensive and where the line is drawn.
Anyway this is heavy stuff so I'm off to lunch

I think it's more the internet broadcasts people's views to a wider audience at a time where people are much more accepting of those who were at one time seen to be different.
I do think some just love a moan though on both sides of the political spectrum. Like for every person who says you can't joke about that, you get another boycotting Gillette over an advert.

We have free speech. (Not to be confused with hate speech)
We are not free of the consequences for what we say.

You were already on the top of my list along with Rosso (United lad). I had about 37 on my list so was still whittling it down.
Insert and Kneerash are two more Mr. Congeniality nominees I would have posted. You've got some sound lads on your board.
