In Japan, most names are specific as to male or female, with 男 "o" (meaning "man") at the end of male names, and 子 "ko" (meaning "child," but with the historical implication of "princess") at the end of female names. For example, Mitsuo 光男 is the male name, while Mitsuko 光子 is the female name.
There are exceptions. One is the name Mitsuyo: when written as 光世 it is a male name, but when written as 美鶴代 it is a female name. Ayako Miura, the 20th century Japanese Christian novelist, wrote in her autobiography that one of the reasons she was able to build a relationship with her future husband was that his name was Mitsuyo Miura, and that if his name had been the more common Mitsuo, her parents would have thought it unseemly for an unmarried woman in the 1950s to become friends with a man.

Kind of like how the muzzards treat their little girls.

Shirley actually used to be a boy’s name. Along with Evelyn and Beverly. Once people started giving those names to girls, they lost favor as boys’ names. Back when nobody wanted their boy to have a “sissy” name.

I grew up with a guy named Richard Long. Boy could he fight.
I lived in Flint, Michigan for five years. Attended a lot of minor-league hockey games (cause frankly there's nothing else to do in that town).
Their big rivalry was with a team from Kalamazoo. They had a goaltender on their roster named Larry Dick. You just had to be there with 5000 drunken minor-league hockey fans when their team's chief rival skated onto the ice, led by a guy with "#1 DICK" on the back of his jersey.

A friend of mine has a friend in Colorado, I think, named Dick Head. He introduces himself that way, not Richard Head.
In Santa Fe a guy named Peter Handler had a liquor store with his name in huge letters above it. Always made me snicker.
Then there was always Doctor Seymour Butts, but I am not sure he was as real as the others I mentioned.

Thus the Follywood airheads come up with names for children such as “Blue” and “Apple.” This destroys the concept of male, female and family and is a rebellion against how God made the world.

Yes, we're dealing with bad people... I agree with you on that... Maybe the best tactic is to mock them - like they do with us. Or take what they say and make it sound even MORE extreme - another thing they do with us.
My feeling was when you're dealing with people who want attention they'll have to keep ‘upping the ante’ to get our attention. That could be dangerous. Our side needs to hire a bunch of social psychologist and start fighting these people back on the turf they're using.
Our moral indignation with their cruel antics just goads them on to more offensive antics. And yeah, I hate them too and I sense how dangerous they are...

If you name a boy “Marion” he may later change it to

Rebellion against Natural Law is direct rebellion against the Author of Natural Law.
It’s disgusting and destructive.
I’ve noticed this for a long time. Girls name “McKenzie” etc. Boys named “Sky”. And of course the made up random syllables that aren’t even real words.

I used to work with a man named Richard Head. But enough of that.

Marion is a traditional male name, just out of use.

That’s a sad story. Yes, something wrong with the mother. Very sad that the boy paid the price.
To: GOPJ
Ignoring their fiendish fixation wtih sexual perversion and rebellion against readon and Natural Law has gotten us where we are.
They DEMAND submission, just like Islam.
Fighting back is the only solution, just like with Islam.
