According the Connecticut Department of Children and Families (DCF), which published an LGBT glossary of more than 250 terms, the belief that there are only two genders — male and female — should be treated as "genderism."
The guide, which was published as part of the DCF’s Safe Harbors Project and was last updated July 7, defines "genderism" as: "The system of belief that there are only two genders (men and women) and that gender is inherently tied to one’s sex assigned at birth. It holds cisgender people as superior to transgender people, and punishes or excludes those who don’t conform to society’s expectations of gender."
"Gender oppression," according to the heavily-Democratic state, is "The societal, institutional, and individual beliefs and practices that privilege cisgender (gender-typical people) and subordinate and disparage transgender or gender variant people. Also known as 'genderism.'"
The Safe Harbor Project was originally created in 2001 to "educate against homophobia, gender bias and racism while working to create a world where youth, adults and families of all sexual orientations and gender identities are valued and affirmed, and to implement affirming and unbiased, culturally competent, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning & Intersex (LGBTQI) service trainings for foster and adoptive parents, social workers, child care and community providers surrounding the issues and problems specific to youth and families with inherent sexuality issues."
The guide explains what the DCF considers to be a family: "Two or more persons who share resources, share responsibility for decisions, share values and goals, and have commitments to one another over a period of time. The family is that climate that one comes home to; and it is that network of sharing and commitments that most accurately describes the family unit, regardless of blood, legalities or adoption or marriage."
The state also offers a definition of "Gayby," which is defined as the "child or children of a gay couple or individual. Used when talking about for both Lesbian/Gay couples and individuals."
"In keeping with Connecticut’s laws, regulations and ethics, DCF actively recruits LGBT foster and adoptive parents and mentors," the SHP website states. A spokesperson for the DCF did not return an email seeking comment.
The guide contains hundreds of other terms.
"Homophobic propaganda" is defined as "propaganda based on homo-negativity and homophobia towards homosexual and sometimes other non-heterosexual people."
The term "gender gifted," meanwhile, "refers to a person whose capacity for gender expression exceeds the binary."
"It is a positive term and can be applied to anyone who enjoys to challenge cis gendered normatives, whether it be in frame of mind, in presentation, or as an ally to loved ones who challenge the binary gender divide," the guide states.
The guide explains that a "Diva" is a "gay man, drag queen or woman that presents themselves as a strong-willed, confident and sometimes arrogant person. A diva is considered an icon to be admired for their beauty and pose."
The guide also contains the term "Ephebophiles" which "refers to a sexual preference for individuals from mid- to late-adolescence usually 15-20’s."
The term "D&D Free," the guide explains, is an "abbreviation for drug and disease free."
The state includes multiple examples of gender neutral pronouns in the guide.
The word "ze" is defined as an "Alternate pronoun that is gender neutral and preferred by some gender variant persons. Replaces 'he’/’she'." Similarly, the guide explains that the word "zir" "can be used instead of his/her." The guide also states that the word "Hir" is a "gender-neutral objective and possessive third-person pronoun used largely by the transgender community."
The guide also contains examples of "problematic terms," "defamatory terms" and "offensive terms."
The term "sex change," for example, is considered "problematic" and shouldn't be used. "Referring to a sex change operation, or using terms such as pre- or post-operative, inaccurately suggests that one must have surgery in order to transition," the government explains." One of the "offensive terms” listed is the word "homosexual," which should be replaced with "gay," "gay man" or "lesbian."
“"Bathroom bill," meanwhile, is listed as a "defamatory term" that was "created and used by far-right extremists to oppose non-discrimination laws that protect transgender people."

Clarification: The belief that gender is a personal choice is a mental disorder.
So, gender-wise, we have a neuter term (gay), a masculine term (gay man), and a feminine term (lesbian).
I'm trying to figure out what derogatory label to use for this intolerable crime of grammar. Sexist? Genderist? Germanicist? Heteromorphologist?
Shout out to the freeloading Connecticut public servants. I don’t do drugs. Is “genderism” a crime or what? Felony or misdemeanor?
The natural order of creation is perfect. Mankind has fiddled around with nature and screwed up causing cancers, malformations and all kinds of out of the ordinary. But one thing has not changed is that at the time of conception you are male or female - one or the other!
There are only TWO human genders: Male and Female.
I erred grievously. I should have said same genders. Mea Culpa, My Bad....and so sad and all that....
Is there a link to this insanity? Thanks.
I figured the insane left would brainwash the kids with creating a new made-up “phobia”, but they settled with another “ism”.
Heh, good point!
I noticed that the surviving gender-marked nouns have to do with social ranks - Duke/Duchess, etc. - that don’t even exist in the United States. There’s probably some sociolinguistic significance to that. It would be interesting to know if this phenomenon is found in other languages as they evolve.
Well then I guess we are all a bunch of genderists.
this is about the effete elites using words to destroy the family unit.
Destroy the family
Destroy virtue
The useful idiots who agree with this manure are just willing fools.
The American bar association has already abdicated their role as protector of laws.
Oh, I don’t know. What “gender” do you think Huma Abedin even *is*? And Valerie Jarrett clearly isn’t even human; what’s our linguistic convention for describing aliens?
There are two sexes. Gender relates to language.
Anyone who cannot accept the reality of what they see in their underwear is mentally ill.
We should not be reordering society to accomodate mental illness.
Can’t happen soon enough.
There are only two SEXES, gender relates to language.
Males have two distinct sex chromosomes (XY), and are called the heterogametic sex.
No twisted liberal thinking can change that.
The people at the Connecticut Department of Children and Family need remedial biology classes.

Total removal from Reality (The Natural Family) so adults can destroy Common Sense, erase Reality for an artificial group-think one of vice/addiction in children and destroy sexual identity formation-—make them irrational, stupid, drugged addicts for life, who will NEVER be able to “think critically” or reproduce naturally. (Satanists are Malthusians).
It is for the Marxist Utopia—total irrationality embedded into our children by indoctrination centers (skools/Common Core) (artificial warped ideas are embedded so artificial Reality is the ONLY memories embedded, created by the psychopathic pederastic elites who normalize perversions and hyper-sexualize the children to warp concept of daddy and mommy, a throw back to Ba’al worship Rites, where orgies with children are the norm (skull and bones/Freemason mindset where boys were routinely raped and parents allowed it like in the 3rd World countries).
Daddy Bush/CIA ran the Franklin Cover-Up-—the Boy-sex ring at the White House. It is ALL about Mind Control (total control of all ideas and information and domination (homosexuality is about emasculating and domination/narcissism/fixation in latency from abuse and neglect).
Repeat these Marxists ideas of ‘gender” OVER and OVER as Hitler stated, and it will become the Truth-—like the oxymoronic “homosexual” marriage—as if two males can unite sexually LOL). Now the SCOTUS is filled with the Lucifereans who want the little boys to be groomed with Pride for their Rites (religion).
