Just don't make the mistake of misgendering that person in the workplace, lest you get fired...

Any women who was not 100% accepting would be considered a bigot. Even if "Angela" had a raging ********

I have no problem with some living a delusion , dressing as they will act as whatever , but not having society at large accepting delusions as factual, that can not be healthy

Angela the "guy who says she's a woman" isn't asking me to give her anything. She's just asking me to call her a woman and refer to her as a she/her. It costs me nothing to do that. It is no more energy spent than referring to her as a him and calling him a man. It doesn't take money from my pocket, it takes no food from my refrigerator, it doesn't trespass on my property, it doesn't infringe on my rights to think of her as a guy.

I get it. Guys who say they're women is a weird thing, and hard to wrap your mind around. I don't understand it either. I can't imagine feeling, or believing, or thinking I'm anything other than how I was born. But apparently some people do, and demanding that they reject how they feel, is just as weird to me as someone demanding that I reject how I feel.

If you meet me on the street and I tell you my name is Orange Blossom Baby, and you call me George, and absolutely refuse to call me by MY preferred name, then it's you, being disrespectful to me. I'm not asking you to take me out to lunch. I'm asking you to call me by a particular name, and refer to me as such.

So are you OK using the restroom with this "she"?

Odd, but harmless.

What are you so concerned about? Do you think.this will.make little boys want to wear dresses? Do you think it will make little girls want to grow moustaches? Or do you worry it will make your grandchildren accepting of others and embarrass you when they call you out for your intolerance?

Do you generally expose yourself to others in the restroom? If so, please stay away from me!

I assume there are no urinals in the women's restroom and most women don't peek through the door to check out the other women in there.

I was asking a woman for an answer.
Obviously, you are OK with it.

Wonder what people would do with various individuals who are sometimes hard at projecting a masculine or a feminine image? Like Saturday Night Live's "It's Pat". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZdV3VomzKdI

And there are a few rather new shows with characters you are hard pressed to identify gender like on Quantum Leap. Mason Alexander Park - IMDb Mason is a they.

I do! Just picked some up at Aldi. So if any delusional person shows up thinking they are a horse I can offer them a treat.

I see your point. So from now on, please refer to me as Intellectually Superior. If you do not, then I assume you are disrespectful.
