OAKLAND, Calif. — The weekly meetings of Mouthing Off!, a group for students at Mills College in Oakland, Calif., who identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender, always start the same way. Members take turns going around the room saying their names and the personal pronouns they want others to use when referring to them — she, he or something else.
It’s an exercise that might seem superfluous given that Mills, a small and leafy liberal arts school historically referred to as the Vassar of the West, only admits women as undergraduates. Yet increasingly, the “shes” and “hers” that dominate the introductions are keeping third-person company with “they,” ”ze” and other neutral alternatives meant to convey a more generous notion of gender.
“Because I go to an all-women’s college, a lot of people are like, ‘If you don’t identify as a woman, how did you get in?’” said sophomore Skylar Crownover, 19, who is president of Mouthing Off! and prefers to be mentioned as a singular they, but also answers to he. “I just tell them the application asks you to mark your sex and I did. It didn’t ask me for my gender.”

So much for the “born that way” meme. They are indoctrinated by perverts who seek new flesh.
They’re just making crap up now.
Well, I suppose “they” would be an appropriate pronoun when addressing a true hermaphrodite.
Those people who are unable or unwilling to participate in reality will make up their own.
These kids have entirely too much time on their hands.
LOOK AT ME! I’M IMPORTANT BECAUSE I WON’T LIVE A NORMAL LIFE!
These students must have really screwed up parents.
That’s exactly what its about.

Don't expect other people to play along with your odd little delusions. You can't reassign your chromosomes. You can't "transition" to the opposite sex. You can mutilate your body, sure, but that doesn't change your sex. First of all humans do not have gender, grammar has gender. Humans have a sex, male OR female, and it is defined biologically. Cutting off your penis does not make you a woman. Would cutting off your limbs make you a snake? How much are we going to tolerate here? Should we start catering to the hallucinations of the paranoid schizophrenics? You are not "transgender" or "genderqueer." What you are is mentally ill.
A kid like this has to be the product of a self hating feminazi who has resented her son ever since the sonogram revealed his evil little penis.
I wouldn’t put it past one of these freaks to take their birth control pills on purpose while the boy is developing in the womb to expose him to more female hormones.
There are a couple true believers trying to stem the tide, but the vast majority of comments are similar to the one you posted.
Yeah,... they are all Obamacrats
“identify as”
as a pig?
do they identify as a dog? a dinosaur? a transformer?
will colleges welcome that too?
...if someone doesn’t identify their gender, how do we know who to give the affirmative action too????????????
