    The Trump administration is considering narrowly defining gender as a biological, immutable condition determined by genitalia at birth, the most drastic move yet in a governmentwide effort to roll back recognition and protections of transgender people. http://bos.gl/JiVqPlF pic.twitter.com/R3Kx0R3IIB

        This is sickening. But not unexpected from an administration that is bigoted, small minded and cruel. #VoteBlue

        That is an accurate definition of gender. With no disrespect to those who dress and identify with another gender, doing so doesn't actually make you the other gender.

        Narrowly defining gender by using the literal definition of gender?

        Did you wanna just go and read the Wikipedia page for “gender” and come back to the conversation?

        This is a cagey (& cynical) political play designed to elicit 'made for tv' over the top protests that will play to base & possibly sour independents. Will opposition groups have discipline to reign in at least the style of the response & debate merits soberly?

        It's biological science. Until Obama changed it, the definition for hundreds and hundreds of years was that there are two genders.

        Like the earth revolving around the sun, it's proven science. Show me anything that disproves it. I'll wait.

        Genetics are proven science, you ignorant! Harvard, MIT, BU, etc. are really close by. Please stop by and do some research. You'll learn nothing from Cheeto President!

        What's truly ignorant is believing that any serious scientific study regarding gender dysphoria reaches a conclusion. There are theories, but the sample size is far too small & considerably more study is required. In the meantime, I'll do the intelligent thing & wait.

        Empathy is a strength, not a weakness. The intelligent thing to do is to care for others.

        That answer is classic feelings over facts.

        But you just admitted there were some facts, albeit of a "small sample size." You don't get to have it both ways. Please wake up, and understand that not all people have the same perspective as you.
