Default Gender identity, are you male, female or a space ship?

http://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/rel...3581cc71279d6b

This is getting out of hand, I've got nothing against the LGBTQ community but I want to put this to our community to discuss, what are your opinions?

Identity is a huge social issue. Generations exposed to bigotry and structural oppression is the reason why we see so much backlash now especially around LGBTQ - the most common forms of gender issues; but also other forms of identity too including cultural; as we now take on a more post-modernist way of critical thinking. Identity is socially constructed based around white European biases.

I see this a positive step forwards. Although the ability of choosing from 33 options A) it removes true choice; and B) it offers those who uphold oppression (overtly) to choose answers through idiocracy on a census which attempts to form an accurate picture of a nation. If the move was to be more inclusive/accepting, why not leave the question open for a persons true account of identity through their own narrative?

We are either born male or female, it's generally pretty easy to tell the difference in most cases.

What are these people hoping to achieve??

It really makes me sad to see that society is going this way, and apparently it's all done in the name of tolerance

This way of thinking is what it is meant as a social construction.
Tell me a little about yourself i.e. gender, age, identity, culture you identify with, values...

Hate to disappoint you but it is well known in the medical world that people can be born with both genitals of male & female, it is called Ambiguous Genitalia.

Might explain why some people have trouble identifying with their own sexuality.

Gender = Male or female

Not I'm some goddamn particulate matter floating in an ocean of nothingness but if that option isn't there I'll jump up and down like a flipping moron.

There's some misunderstanding out there about the terms sex, gender etc but it's recognised that there are clear differences. My wife works at the Royal Children's Hospital, which has a Gender Dysphoria unit. This is what they say about the definitions of gender, sex, transgender:

http://blogs.rch.org.au/news/2014/06...der-dysphoria/


Quote:
Originally Posted by Royal Children's Hospital
With an increase in awareness of Gender Dysphoria (GD), Dr Michelle Telfer, Clinical Leader at the RCH Centre for Adolescent Health, explains the finer points of GD and the benefits of treatment for gender variant young people.

One of the first patients I looked after when I began working in the RCH Gender Clinic was Henry, an 11-year-old. Henry told me that on every birthday since he’d turned four, he’d blown out the candles on his cake and wished that his body became that of a girl. He had become sad and withdrawn at school, and ceased joining activities that he used to enjoy with his friends. Henry told me that he didn’t want anyone to call him Henry or use “he” anymore. He’d decided that the name Holly fitted better. Just using the name Holly brought the biggest smile to her face and, as we talked about how our team at RCH could help her to be who she really was, I realised how lucky I am to have such a wonderful job.

Henry’s story helps to illustrate the difference between ‘sex’ and ‘gender’, words that are often used interchangeably.

‘Sex’ refers to a person’s physical appearance, determined by their chromosomes and hormones. In contrast, ‘gender’ refers to a person’s inner sense of whether they are male, female or somewhere in between. A person is ‘transgender’ when their sex and gender do not match; when this mismatch causes severe distress, it is referred to as Gender Dysphoria (GD).

It is common for children to display gender variant behaviour. For example, some girls like to play with trucks rather than dolls, and some boys like playing dress-ups with typically female clothing. This is not always a sign of GD; only 20% will continue to display gender variant behaviour after the onset of puberty, identifying as transgender during adolescence. Over 99% of transgender adolescents continue to identify as being transgender throughout adulthood.

The health risks associated with inadequate care and support of transgender adolescents are well known. For example, Australia’s third national survey about the health and wellbeing of transgender young people (2010) found that almost half of gender questioning young people had self-harmed. 28% had attempted suicide. There are also increased rates of bullying and physical assaults perpetrated against transgender young people, with discrimination experienced in accessing medical care, educational and employment opportunities.

Throughout the Western world, the number of people coming forward for medical intervention for Gender Dysphoria is increasing. This is likely due to increasing social acceptance of gender variance and public awareness of the treatment options through positive media coverage and the internet. At RCH we have seen an increase from one new referral in 2003 to 40 new referrals during 2013, and we expect that the numbers of young people coming forward for support and assistance will continue to increase over time.

When medical treatment commences at the optimal time (during early puberty), physical and mental health outcomes are better for transgender individuals. International treatment guidelines for children and adolescents with gender dysphoria recommend a series of medical interventions that are initially fully reversible (Stage 1 treatment using medication to suspend puberty), through to partially reversible interventions (Stage 2 treatment using oestrogen or testosterone hormones) and finally irreversible surgical interventions in adulthood (after the age of 18 years).

At RCH, the Gender Dysphoria Service consists of a team of Child and Adolescent Psychiatrists, Adolescent Physicians, Endocrinologists and Gynaecologists. We work together to ensure that all young people presenting to RCH with gender concerns receive a comprehensive assessment and ongoing support.

Psychological support may include education and counselling for the child or adolescent, their family members and involvement of the school community. For those young people who decide to commence hormonal treatment, this ongoing support is considered a necessary component of their care.
People through history will have always lived with these things, now we are starting to be able to better recognise and help where needed. In recognising that they are human beings, children and adults, with struggles and hopes, let's please try our best to be kind and decent and try to understand, not to make life harder for them, even if the whole thing is very confusing for us.

Seems confusing with all the options. They should ask the question more simply for us Australians to understand.

Do you have both nuts, like only one left... but also one right?

Or a single nut? Wouldn't it no longer be a left nut but now be a centre nut? Or does it still hang to the left?

Which reminded me of poor Harry.....

The doctor said, 'Harry, the good news is I can cure your headaches. The bad news is that it will require castration.

You have a very rare condition, which causes your testicles to press on your spine and the pressure creates one hell of a headache. The only way to relieve the pressure is to remove the testicles.'

I was shocked and depressed. I wondered if I had anything to live for. I had no choice but to go under the knife. When I left the hospital, I was without a headache for the first time in 20 years, but I felt like I was missing an important part of Myself. As I walked down the street, I realized that I felt like a different person. I could make a new beginning and live a new life.

I saw a men's clothing store and thought, 'That's what I need... A new suit...'

I entered the shop and told the salesman, 'I'd like a new suit..'

The elderly tailor eyed me briefly and said, 'Let's see... Size 44 long.'

I laughed, 'That's right, how did you know?'

'Been in the business 60 years!' the tailor said.

I tried on the suit it fit perfectly.

As I, admired myself in the mirror, the salesman asked, 'How about a new shirt?'

I thought for a moment and then said, 'Sure.'

The salesman eyed me and said, 'Let's see, 34 sleeves and 16-1/2 neck.'

I was surprised, 'That's right, how did you know?'

'Been in the business 60 years.'

I tried on the shirt and it fit perfectly.

I walked comfortably around the shop and the salesman asked, 'How about some new underwear?'

I thought for a moment and said, 'Sure.'

The salesman said, 'Let's see... Size 36.

I laughed, 'Ah ha! I got you! I've worn a size 34 since I was 18 years old.'

The salesman shook his head, 'You can't wear a size 34. A size 34 would press your testicles up against the base of your spine and give you one hell of a headache.'

I thought everyone only had one left nut? I've only got one left nut, I've also only got one right nut

If you had two left nuts you'd probably need special under pants
