This particular argument isn’t your finest. Of course there are worse issues to worry about. There are always worse issues to worry about. Why, you yourself could be devoting yourself to some of them instead of arguing on the internet about dress codes.

@Sho_Nuff, I have to agree with nothingfuture here.

I am a believer in nature being fluid at battling against natural extinction. Hypothetically speaking, lets say all women and men refused to procreate with each other. I do not think that nature would allow the extinction of humans and we would indeed evolve into a people that based on our own will of want would be able to create life without the need for a partner.
I must confess I am not and probably will never be versed, in binary, non-binary, identity choosing, they, we, pro-nouns…it all confuses me (I am a very simple person, seriously)
I don’t force my views or damn others, everything is about learning and experience for me.

Yeah, that’s not really how natural selection works.
Maybe it’s time to educate yourself before you make insulting comments?

I don’t think that gender identity has much to do with procreation. it’s much more of a cultural and social think, we some biologial underpinnings. [quote=“Sho_Nuff, post:309, topic:97729”]

If only more people had this view and were willing to actually learn, rather than double down. None of us are perfect and can learn from the world around us and other people.

Free like. I disagree with your position on this issue, but I agree this should be a safe place to disagree.

You are conflating biological sex with gender and sex identity. That’s a category error. Dress codes pertain to identity and gender roles, not evolutionary biology. That said, while I don’t want to derail this thread into a discussion of biology, biological sex is not an absolute binary. The sex of organisms is a great deal more complicated than most people are aware. While it’s reasonable for you not to know that, as most people don’t, it’s wise to check facts on scientific topics before unequivocally stating them to be true.

The human will has limits. Time is one of them now, thanks to humans. Maybe you are correct, we will likely find out how quickly we can evolve, I do not see our civiliation surviving it, and there is some chance that larger mammals wont survive it, and we are one of those.
With all sincerity, I hope you learn some genetics and evolutionary biology. It’s fascinatingly complicated, but the one thing biology does not do is respond quickly, in human terms, to sudden environmental change. Life will persist. Life that knows itself may be a while coming back, and won’t look much like us anyhow. We should leave them interesting landfills, is my contribution to the future of earth.

Honestly, I didn’t think I had, nor did I intend to insult you.
Maybe it’s the inclusion of the phrase “probably will never be” that I read as a disinterest in learning about the subject. Since that appears to not be the case, I apologize.

Exactly. This incident is classic HR Culture power-tripping, chickenshit spiced with sexism.

Great post. I so wish this were a part of biology/health/sex education classes in middle school. There are so many zoological examples that could be used to teach people that, in nature, practically nothing, including gender, is binary.

I don’t think anyone here is insulting you or trying to do so. I think some people are seeking to try and give you a greater understanding of something you yourself noted you have little knowledge of experience about.

If we can will evolution into fixing things, surely we can will ourselves into talking out of the end with the lips and not the sphincter end, and surely at least we can cease equating the two.
We’ve determined which end, now it’s just a matter of degree
That’s your assumption to make that someone is disinterested because they admit to not being able to do something.
