Movement for Third Gender Option 'Exploding' in U.S.
nbcnews.com ^ | 12/15/16 | Mary Emily O'Hara

Posted on 12/18/2016 9:36:23 AM PST by ColdOne

When Oregon resident Jamie Shupe quietly walked into a Portland, Oregon, courthouse this June and received permission to change their gender from female to "non-binary," they did so without the assistance of any nonprofit or national transgender advocacy group.

Shupe's successful legal change to a third gender stunned the national LGBTQ community; many intersex and gender nonconforming people had dreamed of someday being able to opt out of "male" and "female" gender designations, but no one thought it could be done so easily.

In the six months since Shupe became the first legally non-binary U.S. citizen, the amount of people petitioning courts for third gender designations has increased exponentially. Some were born intersex (with female and male sex characteristics), while others identify on a spectrum of gender that doesn't fit neatly into either of the categories currently available on identity documents.

nbc is confusing sex act with genetics.

remember judges are notoriously stupid when it comes to real science. (stupid as in ignorant or idiots or fools or moronic)

You could find a judge to legally proclaim pi is the number four.

There’s been a non specific pronoun forever:

It

As in, “it ain’t normal.”

notice NBC is taking ONE anecdote and creating a trend.

One point does not make a line.

the are mingling mating behavior with DNA from birth.

Does this mean police can’t give speeding tickets because people were “born to drive fast”?

I think it is a good thing that they are willingly segregating themselves. They will be easier to identify when the time comes for it, if you know what I mean.

Societies, come and go. When they fall, there is always a great cleaning out of the rubbish. I say, let the rubbish mark themselves.

I guess because NBC says there’s a movement there must be a movement. /s

I am so sick of the media elite driving the national dialogue, aka telling people what to think.

that was a name dispute. He was in a legal fight with sony so he changed his name to that to mess with Sony.

Note, this guy was 48 years old before he “discovered he was intersex”, whatever that is. These freaks spend decades developing their perversions and then want to turn around and force them into the minds of innocent five year olds.

“What happened to settled science?”

I have seen gender defying advocates on TV explain that. It is easy; they claim it exists only as Christian religious bigotry.

Who is "their" and "they"? Her mammary glands?

“And we’re supposed to oppose the movement for secession of our Left Coast states because . . . ???? “

Not me. I’m all in favor of it. Get out of our country, and take as many insane leftists with you as will go.

So they are rejoicing over the word written down in a civil record book?
That doesn’t change the fact that no one can change his/her sex. You can chop your schmeckel and try to make a kitty out of it, but you’re still a male. A f*ucked-up male, but a male.
