The notion that kids who act like neither Barbie nor Ken aren't their biological sex. Instead of expanding the boundaries of male & female, these kids are "boy-girls," referred to as "they/them," & fretted over by parents. We were more "progressive" about this stuff 50 years ago!

They kept a tally of whether he was more “boy-like” or “girl-like.” WTF? Ultra-conservative about gender roles, hung up about him not fitting them, and pretending they’re so hip and woke.pic.twitter.com/vopyEPBCIP
