Society has only its own self to blame. When society, especially the media, yielded to the transgender group and began referring to male DNA people as "she", and female DNA people as "he", the avalanche of stupidity was unleashed to destroy all before it.

Only if you allow the gutter press to sensationalise it.

The *person* on the train who complained is, of course, taking the piss. But the punters love it.

Re: Non-inclusive greeting offends

I want to know...how all this load of twaddle was allowed to creep into our society and no one tried to stop it? It’s ended up that no one dares say anything anymore in case they offend.
If you do speak in what you think is in an innocent way, it will be taken, regurgitated until you may even be accused of some heinous crime for offending some group.

Soon, we are going to be a country with people so screwed up because they now have to fit into a category.
They won’t have Christian names anymore, just a label with what category they come under.

You could well be right. After all, Elon Musk named his son "X Æ A-12." Perhaps just naming your kids with a few random numbers and letters, there is no offense to be taken. Depressing, isn't it.

Re: Non-inclusive greeting offends

When everyone on the planet is finally androgynous, how will the species procreate? I mean, how will those with female genitalia know whether they're making eyes at someone with male genitalia or not? Or won't it matter? Will all babies be the result of artificial insemination anyway, thereby doing away with the need for sex to be anything other than a recreational pastime?

The mind boggles

It must be very disappointing to be hoping for a specific genitalia, only to find non binary genitalia. I'm the sort of person who likes to get what he is expecting, especially when it comes to genitalia.
