4 year olds able to change gender in Scotland

Nope. I don't understand the idea that people are confused by their gender at puberty... Unless, of course, they're being told that they should be confused.

Just because someone at puberty wants to wear dresses doesn't make them gender confused. There's a confusion that most people experience. The confusion over rules both acknowledged, and those people just have to figure out for themselves, that exist within society. The boundaries. Pretending the boundaries don't exist, doesn't change that they do exist, and worse yet, encourage the creation of further boundaries/rules.

The idea that a 4 year old would even comprehend "the choice" and the consequences over a gender change are ridiculous. Most adults would have problems understanding all that's concerned with the decision, and that's with years living within their respective societies.

My understanding is that there is Male and female. And then there are transgendered people who have undergone surgery or hormonal treatments to change their bodies/etc. Anyone who hasn't undergone the physical change, is still their biological sex gender. Male/Female. And those who have undergone the physical changes, are trans-male/trans-female. No longer male or female, but they've decided to be another classification, and to be treated as neither. There's the choice.

And just as with the pronouns, just to be nice, I'll call them as they wish.. but it doesn't change the gender I consider them to be. Their biological sex. Their gender. Since I see them as being one and the same.

Common sense gays support science.

Common sense gays support objective reality.

Common sense gays support difference of opinion, without eternal condemnation of the views they hold.

On the trans- question, it is far more divided among the gay community than the media make out.

This abhorrent Scottish law is one of many examples. It's a total and utter disgrace, and an insult to children.

You do realise that many trans activists now argue that you don't even need to undergo surgery? That, even just feeling you are a woman, for example, makes you a woman.

Many trans activists now argue, for example, that if a straight man rejects a trans woman, it's because of transphobia - even if that trans- person contains a penis.

Can you see the problem here?

That the mission creep among the trans- community is extending far beyond its original remit.

And the Scottish law is just one such example of precisely that kind of mission creep.

Why is it necessary to introduce a 4-year old child to concepts such as gender identity and transphobia?
