How about the day when you can say "I'm poor" and get Medicaid, SNAP, subsidized rent and pay no (or negative) federal income tax?
Because either you're spamming this nonsense across multiple platforms or you're stealing someone else's (really stupid) posting and passing it off as your own.
Either amuses me.
While correct on age, gender is not determined at birth, but assumed. Sex is determined at birth, unless intersexed, and even then can be objectively determined by genetics.
Who should get to determine who you are if not you?
Trump identifies as a trillionaire.
Honestly, I have no idea what it's like to be transgender. I have never wanted to be a woman, or felt like I really was a woman. It's not part of my truth.
But why should I or you or the government get to determine what somebody else is?
Hes a pretty heavy dude Im not sure you can really take him very far. Unless his word is Leviosa.Yep, and as an extremely stable genius - must we take him at his word?
Well, yeah...the possibilities are endless...what is truth? There is no truth anymore...what's true is false and what's false is true...
I think you have a lot to learn on the issue. "Vague" is the word for someone who doesn't understand it, not that it actually is that vague. But a basic concept is the difference between 'biological gender' and 'gender identity', which usually match, but not always.

What specific issues to you see for gender identification?
The only one I really see is sports.
Yep, wouldn't simply having to take someone's word for stuff be a better system? If one has (or simply claims to have) six personalities then shouldn't they have six identities?

Gender has been tied to physical sex for millennia, and not without good reason. But as our knowledge grows and we learn more and as people become more open as to their true selves, we learn that what we thought is not always correct.
Gender is as objective as one's own emotions are. While emotions are subjectively applied to any given thing/situation/etc, one objectively experiences them. It is an objectivity that only the possessor of the emotion can have. So too with one's gender.
Gender expectations and roles are indeed social constructs and have changed countless times over the centuries and cultures. What makes you a given gender has nothing to do with how emotional you are, or protective, or strong or anything. You can fulfill all of the traits of a currently stereotypical female and still know you are male, regardless of what you were born with between you legs.

Good point and also pay taxes for those 6 identities...
Nope, claim that they each make only 1/6th of their combined income.
Even better...
It seems the idea of gender is vague. And that there is inherent contradiction within progressive thought on this issue.
On the one hand, gender stereotypes are frowned upon and equality is emphasized, on the other hand, the very idea of claiming to be a gender infers some kind of stereotype.
So what does it mean to be a male, or female gender?
It seems any description one would give, could be seen as an insulting stereotype to someone else claiming that gender, but lacks that quality just claimed.
For instance if someone claims they are female in gender, becasue they feel strong e emotions, or like the touch of a strong man, it seems to deminish someone else who claims female gender yet isn’t emotional and doesn’t like men.
It seems the logical conclusion is gender is purely construct, and subjective.
but if it’s subjective, why make a big deal about it when others disagree?

* Side note - The speaker implies, and the listener infers.
Better get back into your dictionary or English 1 course book. Within the context of the OP’s opening comment he improperly used infer when imply was the correct word.Turns out, that while the primary use of infer is to receive, to imply is also a valid definition of the word. It's not only people who don't know the definition. The inconsistent English language.

If you going to continue to try ****ing with me, I suggest you work harder at being correct when you try to correct me. So far your just making an ass of yourself.
Oh nooo!.... we will not be interacting again.
Well, why would you determine what an Apple is? Or a toaster?
Are you saying Thst gender doesn’t really mean anything?
If it means something, then what?
We should<get to> determine what things are because it’s we live in a free country.

Thus the (legal?) requirement that age and gender are currently determined at birth. If one is free to self-assign some other "determination" based on their personal feelings (opinion?) then those traits become indeterminate and rather fluid. Income/asset value is also left to outside (government?) definition and determination and cannot simply be self-designated based on personal preference (some laws refer to that as fraud).
