I personally think Sam Smith goes out of their way to be different all the time and they’re just so normal and ordinary to me. What “choices” am I reevaluating??? That makes no sense You're the one who makes no sense. You think Sam is "just trying to be different" yet you still call them "they"? Where do you actually stand?

ear condom 964 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Guys... let's do the math : opinion A (if respectful) = opinion B (if respectful) but : claiming someone has to conform to outdated and incohate standards < acknowledging your own lack of education about that particular subject and also , in any manner : respecting someone's decision > rejecting someone's decision Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphaz 7,956 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I feel like non-binary individuals can't make up their mind whether they want to be male or female. However they wanted to be called, people will still call them as what they appear to be. Like Sam Smith, a guy. I guess whatever that makes him happy, I just find it ridiculous.

Or actually they don’t identify as a man or a woman so that’s why they go with a non-binary label? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

witchcocktor 1,438 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Translation: I'm not a conveniently handsome man and I do not fall into the strict gender role of a man that society has placed on me and that makes me really depressed because I don't get the positive attention I need, so I'd rather conform to some weirdo gender identity trend bullsh!t so people will pay attention to me and call me special and because I don't want to deal with the social stigma of not adhering to the strict gender roles , all the while taking a huge dump on the progress that society has tried to make by making gender roles less strict, and therefor also encouraging stereotypes and gender roles with my nonsense.

Y’all love to pretend these people don’t exist. Scientifically, "male" and "female" shouldn't be seen as holistically deterministic as it is done so with society, when in fact it should be seen more multi-dimensionally. Literally a spectrum. Socially, gender norms are a construct and generally based around biological essentialism. There is no one or the other. 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
