    Didn’t they always? “Asshole”, “dirtbag”, “perp”, “fucker” are all gender neutral…

      Racial slurs are gender neutral.

    This type of policy should be approached carefully so that the sensitive BP men don’t start crying.

    Border Patrol agents are notoriously conservative. It is a certainty they will ignore this order at every opportunity.

      Thats what happen when these lawless thugs face zero consequences after decades of shitting on the Constitution and people’s rights.

      How is the left any better in this case? Real people and real suffering and they are like “we should think about pronouns”

    Luckily, I’ve never had trouble at the northern border. Actually, sometimes they want to have smalltalk about our queer relationship (we live in different countries) or what a furry is, and I’m sweating as an impatient line is forming behind me, lol. Generally, they’ve either been sweet or indifferent.

    If I wasn’t sure what gender it was, I called it an “it”.

      Oof.

      Only a conservative would soapbox InDiViDuAl FrEeDuMB but simultaneously care so much about what other people call themselves, lmao.

      Like, if someone says their name is John and you dislike the name John, do you rage and refuse to call them that? lol

          Being conservative is a bad thing. It’s an antiquated ideology that shows a lack of adaptation to progress. Quite literally stuck in old ways. What’s next, is the Earth still the center of the universe!? Lmao. These buffoons can’t even accept climate change or comprehend the science behind vaccinations. Too busy worrying about what people wish to identify as.

          The conservative ideology is flatly useless and is incorrect on universally every policy position.

          Gender isn’t biology it’s sociology, sex is biology.

          You can’t change your sex on a scientific level but science don’t give a shit how you refer to yourself or whats under the hood, that’s all society.

              No you didn’t.

              Only in America can your feelings push biology to the back burner. 🤦🏻‍♂️

              But, since you can now identify as neither sex on your passport, we are literally putting your feelings ahead of fact.

              No that’s what “presents as” is for, these are solved issues culture war dipshits are the only ones in tears about it. Sex is fact, gender is not. Stop with the culture war horseshit.

      Ah yes, we all know that the english language emerged to describe biology and always conforms to exacting scientific definitions that conform to DNA

              I’ve read plenty, including biology textbooks that explain sex is more than just XX or XY.

              Did you know conservatives are statistically less-educated than the left? I guarantee the average lefty reads more. In fact I bet every other person in this thread is more well-read than you.

                  this comment comes off as something a petulant child would say

                  Truest thing you’ve said so far, just not in the way you intended.
