Transitioning
The act of making physical, social, medical, surgical, interpersonal, or personal changes that help to affirm gender or address gender dysphoria.
Transsexual
Falling under the transgender umbrella, transsexual is a word that was medically and historically used to indicate a difference between one’s gender identity (i.e., the internal experience of gender) and sex assigned at birth (as male, female, or intersex).
Transsexual is often (though not always) used to communicate that one’s experience of gender involves a medical diagnosis or medical changes — such as hormones or surgery — that help alter anatomy and appearance to feel more congruent with gender identity.
Due to a fraught history, the word transsexual can be contentious and shouldn’t be used unless someone specifically asks to be referred to this way.
Trigender
This gender identity describes the experience of having three gender identities, simultaneously or over time.
This term indicates the number of gender identities someone experiences, but doesn’t necessarily indicate which genders are included in a given person’s trigender identity.
Two-spirit
This umbrella term was created by native communities to bring traditional indigenous understandings of gender and sexuality into Western and contemporary native education and literature.
Each First Nation tribe has its own understanding and meaning of what it means to be two-spirit, so this term can have many definitions.
Two-spirit generally refers to a gender role believed to be a common, acknowledged, accepted, and praised gender classification among most First Nation communities, dating back centuries.
I think she wants equity.
Any chances before the Hildebeast got filthy rich by scamming all of us, she would first have had to go to a beauty salon for a makeup / hair estimate?
Congratulations on having the “Response of the Decade”!
Yup, not in this lifetime.
My vote is for the second scenario.
Lots cheaper.
FINALLY. Some good news
Sure you will dear...every onne is equal in HELL.
We’re praying everyday that she’s right!
Garlic. Holy water.
F Joe Biden
Let's Go Brandon!
GOOD
Works for me. It’s a race to the finish for all the Socialist Democrats I want to see pass away before I do. ;)
There isn’t true gender equality in the United States, I agree. The court system is biased against divorced fathers. An overwhelming majority of our college students right now is female. So yeah, things are not equal. Hillary is just angry that America was wise enough at the time not to elect her for President and that the Left underestimated Donald Trump in 2016. They did not make that mistake in 2020.
It’s not society or culture that makes the genders unequal, it’s biology. The party of science, indeed!
And it’s pure joy that every day she wakes up, she was never president!
I still say, regarding this infamous photo, Hillary’s balls aren’t showing:
https://media1.popsugar-assets.com/files/thumbor/nL-pTgTS2YyNbz4mk0au8iAUR5A/fit-in/1024x1024/filters:format_auto-!!-:strip_icc-!!-/2018/04/26/670/n/43222156/5b24d6c965317d50_GettyImages-531886466/i/Hillary-Clinton.jpg
There is no doubt there is gender equality access in the job market and access to education.Yes, there are instances where individual men will have a bias for their own gender as well as women having the same bias. On a social level, the genders may treat each other differently, primarily because they are different Progressives want to legislate the biological and wiring differences away and cancel out reality.
Still amazes me how many sheep were totally fooled by that TOTALLY staged, phoney-baloney lovey-dovey”impromptu” dance-on-the-beach.
You can even see in their faces, they aren’t feeling anything for each other.
