Almost half of millennials believe using the incorrect pronouns for a transgender person should be considered a criminal offense.
A survey, conducted by Redfield & Wilton Strategies for Newsweek suggested that among those aged between 25-34, 44 percent were in favor of the idea while just 31 percent disagreed.
The remaining 25 percent of those responding to the survey either expressed no clear opinion or simply stated that they didn't know.
Similar sentiments were found among those aged 35-44. In that group, 38 percent appeared to be in favor of criminalizing misgendering someone while 35 percent were against.
About one quarter - 26 percent - were either unsure or did not express an opinion.
Millennials are defined as those having been born between 1981 and 1996, making them between 27 and 42 years old today.
Generation Z includes those born between 1997 and 2012, who would now be aged between 11 and 26 years old.
The idea of criminalizing misgendering pronouns comes a several Republican-controlled states have passed laws banning certain medical procedures and treatments for minors.
Kentucky and Tennessee are among the 20 states, all with Republican-controlled legislatures, that have passed laws banning use of puberty blockers and hormones as part of gender transition for patients under 18.
Such treatments, known as gender-affirming care, are supported by major U.S. medical associations. Proponents of the bans say they are experimental and endanger children.
Families say the laws discriminate against transgender people and take away parents' right to make medical decisions for their children.
Federal courts in Arkansas, Alabama, Florida and Indiana have blocked similar bans on transgender healthcare for minors.
The issue has also come to the fore through the likes of 26-year-old trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney who has been at the center of a scandal this year...

Well, ya little shits (no misgendering there), denying me my civil right of free speech IS a criminal offense.
Time for another war?
Only generation worse than the moronials are gen zzzzzzzzz
Yeah. Start it. We will all follow.
idiocracy.
President Trump threw down tonight. Called them what they are: Marxists, Communists and Facists. The gloves are off. No more Javanka this time. They pissed him off, and it is great.
As long as they don’t use this ridiculous crap to harm me or those I care about most then I won’t go “full Bronson”.
Perhaps active measures should be taken to prevent such a loss of freedom?
In English the gender of a pronoun matches the person’s sex. Those who refer to someone of the male sex as “she/her” or of the female sex as “he/him” are the ones who are misgendering.
America is finished, barring unforeseeable events.
they should be required to wear a sign.
they should be required to wear a sign.
Millennials are America's Worst Generation. How did a nation as great as the USA spawn a generation of such fools and moral imbeciles?
I’m watching a little delayed.
Trump is doing a great job tonight. As you say, the gloves are off! He has the bit between his teeth. He will bring back our Country, our Freedoms, our morality, our economy and opportunity for all Americans.
Good Men Make Good Times
Good Times Make Weak Men
Weak Men Make Hard Times
I was just watching the scene in Wyatt Earp about calling down the Thunder.
Half of millennials should be exterminated.
Hard Times Make Good Men!
Yes. Very slanted, sensationalized reporting.
When they finally get around to reporting the actual details for the entire survey - at the very end of the article - here’s what they wrote:
“Among the general population, the survey which was conducted along 1,500 people, only 19 percent support misgendering being criminalized while 65 percent are against such laws being created.
A remaining 12 percent have no opinion either way, while 4 percent ‘dont know.
Among Generation Z Americans aged 18-24, there appears to be less enthusiasm to make misgendering a criminal charge.
In that group, 33 percent believe that calling someone by the wrong pronoun should be a criminal offense, while 48 percent disagree.
In terms of people’s behavior, 37 percent said they would respect the wishes of the transgender person and use the pronouns as requested to do so. 17 percent said they would ignore such requests.
A further 28 percent said their response would depend on the individual involved while another 17 percent were unsure.”
The Daily Mail article linked above and the Newsweek article it is based on share a lot of text with the primary difference being paragraph ordering. However, the “journalists” at the Daily Mail added additional images and text boxes to amp up the pro-LGBTQ+ angle.
So even a relatively conservative news service like the Daily Mail has its pro-tranny Fifth Column.
I feel terrible about the soon to be $35,000,000,000,000 in federal debt we’ll see shortly, however the bill will go instead straight to these deserving retards.
Use a pronoun? You’ve got to be kidding.
