Thank you. We need brief introductions like this when speaking with the well-meaning friends who put pronouns in their bio because HR told them to. When a straight friend calls themselves “cis.” We need to help get back to first principles. Gender identity is a belief, not a sexual orientation, and not subject to birth defects.

Separation of Church and State is there for a reason!!! We can believe whatever we wish but the Government cannot enshrine a belief system in schools or the public square!!

I am highly susceptible to manipulation, and I think that's largely to do with being raised in a religious setting. Growing up accepting things that are impossible to prove in the name of faith really fucked with my head. I can't even imagine what this next generation is going to be like in adulthood pushing all this garbage with such zeal and righteousness.
