Thread: Gender neutral

Luckily, along with all of his full interviews, there are quite a few of the important bits on YouTube now, which is usually enough to pique people's interest. I always tell people to Google "Yuri Bezmenov Useful Idiots". They can easily find 15min to 30min clips of his famous interview where he discussed the stages of a Communist takeover of a country and the useful idiots who facilitate it - and their eventual fate!

Have to say I felt it was all getting more than just a little crazy when I started to see the term “cis gender”. Had to look it up.

Basically it means someone who identifies with the sex they were assigned at birth.

So basically I am cis gender but not sure how much I am going to use the term!

To translate it for you, anything Cis-gendered is the Loony Left's way of talking about straight people (usually white) and is usually delivered as an insult. Basically, I've never used the term at all except once when defending myself against a couple of idiots I ran into at uni when visiting some friends who still work there (both in the sciences and social sciences).

Twice in the last year I have been called either sexist or a male chauvinist when opening the door for some students on the way either out of, or into a building on campus. My reply was 'I was taught manners when I grew up, and see those people behind you? I held the door for them too'. Blank stares as they turned around and saw some other people behind them (on the first occasion one waved and another gave them the finger). I notice these same dropkicks aren't protesting against sexism in Yemen or Saudi Arabia! Welcome to the brave new world where micro-aggressions are a thing.

It's not about minorities ruling anything - do you have any idea how hard it is to grow up being different? Any idea what it's like to be discriminated against every day because you don't fit into a category that generally middle aged white males made for people in the first place and have demanded the population to abide by for centuries? I'd suggest if you grew up as a white heterosexual male in Australia then you'd have no idea. If you think for a second that anyone from the LGBTIQ community rules anything then you're clearly out of touch with the world - people like you continue to mock their chosen lifestyles and actively discriminate against them. Just because it is different to how you view the world doesn't make it wrong or unacceptable.

Rant over, but 'm personally sick of how intolerant our society continues to be.

It's a brave new world - get on board.

I couldnt care less if someone is gay, It doesn't bother me at all.
I do however deeply care that those of us that are not gay are forced to change the way we use the English language because of the gay peoples lifestyle choices.
"It's a brave new World, Get aboard" What a load of old cobblers.
Freedom of speech is Far more important than ANYONE'S agenda and this "Censorship" being forced upon society by these PC zealots is just the thin edge of the wedge.

Millions of men and women have died defending our rights to free speech So I am buggered if I am going to support the ideologies of this PC brigade that are slowly erroding my, my kids and my grandkids rights to be able to say what they think without censorship.

How on earth can it be a brave new world when people are constantly being told what to think and what to say, I don't know about you But concept is verry Un Australian to Me.

I tried to explain a video i watched where a woman Person said they want to be identified as they or them.
Guess what i found the video.

Enjoy.



Enjoy.

So you call what you say here free speech but deny someone else the same right? Hmmm, interesting....

Australia doesn't have laws guaranteeing free speech. And not thinking and just blurting out anything that comes to mind isn't a sign of "Ozzie values", just crass insensitivity. The old idea of shouting "FIRE" in a crowded theatre comes to mind. Words have consequences and some are best left unsaid.

What I would consider respect for others has been hijacked in today’s day and age to have very narrow meanings, and if you don’t adhere to an ever changing social landscape you are vilified - especially white males.

When I was at uni I dealt with lots of indigenous students and the first thing I knocked out of them was to ‘stay a victim’. That mentality is totally corrosive to a culture. I learnt that from watching Dr Thomas Sowell more than 20 yeats ago. Rather than give someone a fish and feed them for a day, teach them to fish and transform their lives instead.

You are battling against the tide I’m afraid (not that you shouldn’t try of course), as the Uni’s are where a lot of this stupidity originates and then spills out and infests everyday life. When I said, welcome to this new paradigm, I was being entirely facetious! Personally, I haven’t given up but I do try to battle it with humour. Sometimes that doesn’t happen, but at least I’m giving it a red hot go.
