Just sharing this nonsense from an Anglican cleric.

Man doing 'women's jobs' is transgender.

Must go and tell my DH who's now doing the washing up.

Reminds me of Jesus Was An Androgyne by Dory Previn:
Love her songs, but this is not one of her best.

I didn’t listen to it but maybe Jesus was doing something that broke with tradition regarding who usually washes feet. I don’t know about it?
If you take the accounts to be accurate then he allowed woman to learn in the same manner as the men. He empowered a woman to be the first evangelist (the woman in the well) and these were clearly breaking traditional roles of the day.

My take on it was that he was showing God is both masculine and feminine - and traditional convention is not the same as what defines a man or a woman.

However, Jesus has been claimed to be most things to a lot of people to justify almost anything.

It may seem like a detail but he is not an Anglican priest.

Not unreasonable for OP to see a clip of someone talking a load of bollocks which clearly isn't compatible with Christianity and assume he's Anglican.

I was surprised when I realised he was Baptist, of all things- the only ones I know are evangelical and biblical literalists. I've emailed them this clip just to annoy them :-)

Reminds me of the pro-trans woman on the Doctor Phil episode the other day who said something like "Sex and gender are different. Just because someone is born with certain chromosomes and anatomy doesn't mean they will like... you know... vacuuming."

Like what the HELL sort of backward gender stereotypes are these people operating with?

It may seem like a detail but he is not an Anglican priest.

He's a Baptist minister at Bloomsbury Central Baptist Church as it clearly says on the Twitter clip. Nothing to do with the CofE or any other Anglican church.

I think he's a bit confused too.

Do we need a list of every possible activity and its gender now? Who gets to decide this, and what if I steal their pen?

BruceAndNosh · 22/01/2022 22:16

I used an electric drill today and called someone "Love"
Am I a bloke now?

Wtf?
Women’s jobs??
I’m sure even in the 14th century it wasn’t defined- and as for making someone transgender if they were to do a different “gender role”, it’s an insult to people who do consider their gender to be other than it is (whatever that means in relation to their sex, as opposed to gender).
