There are no words. What a plonker.

Perhaps it tracks if you change gender. I’ll happily change to a man for a week every 28 days.

imablackstarnotapopstar · 20/01/2018 20:44

Last night I wore a dress, lady boots, dangly jewellery and make up but today I wore jeans, a shit baggy hoodie & Doc Martins with no make up. I think I'd better just identify as hungover

Thermostatpolice · 20/01/2018 20:52

That's what I was wondering simon. It does sound like 'state switching' is related to gender. Or maybe it's a MH term (in which case I can see why the app would be v useful)?

Or electronics, which is all Google throws up.

trainsgender Grin Nice one.

Chin chin, irretating ! Lad bonding time, mate.

Cynara, vulvas are neither here nor there in this Brave New World. The question is: might you in fact be a good boy? Hmm? Do you feel like a good boy? What even is a boy?

I can quite imagine that Benezia has many, many emotions and moods that they wish to track. ALL the emotions. Bigly.

SophoclesTheFox · 20/01/2018 20:57

Simon, do you think it might help if you changed to a more feminine name? I mean, no wonder you're confused, love Grin

SimonBridges · 20/01/2018 21:00

I find that having a male name means I get paid more.
And people listen to me I meetings.

SophoclesTheFox · 20/01/2018 21:03

Sorry, what was that, Si? I was looking at my phone.

Poor DS3. He’s busy breastfeeding from me right now. He’ll be terribly upset to discover that I’m not a woman because I haven’t worn a dress or heels or makeup in years. Maybe I should put a dress and some makeup on quick before my milk dries up?

On a serious note though, DS2 (4) came home from school the other day, and announced that he was a girl. Because now his favourite colour is pink, and “pink is a girl colour, so I have to be a girl if I like pink”. (he still wants to be a train driver when he grows up though).
The thought that there’s people out there who’d say to him “yes, you might really be a girl instead of a boy” instead of “it’s okay for boys to like pink” is quite chilling.

I'm wearing a onesie:I am a leopard. I don't know what sex of leopard as it's cold and I don't want to undo the zip.

titchy · 20/01/2018 21:12

Wonder if Benezia knows she's transphobic. How dare she say transwomen are male Shock

I was about to say that if you don’t have dangly bits, its safe to assume you are a girl leopard but with all this new gender-bending, I’m not so sure.

MrsDoylesTeaBags · 20/01/2018 21:22

Titchy that last statement makes no sense. I am bi racial and I know loads of mixed race people from all backgrounds.

How can gender be fluid but race be fixed?

MarigoldGloveHotel · 20/01/2018 21:23

Nope, not a girl leopard, I just looked in the mirror and I've got no makeup on, no shoes at all.

I thought a onesie would make my life easier, not stylish, but easier. I'm disappointed.

TallulahWaitingInTheRain · 20/01/2018 21:29

If gender is fluid, doesn't that just prove that it's too unreliable to be designated as a protected category?

NotAgainYoda · 20/01/2018 21:33

theresnonamesleft

If you started out as a girl and are now a man, you must have transitioned. Did you notice it happening? Are you a frog perhaps?

c75kp0r · 20/01/2018 21:34

I’m wearing an old shell suit my husband once owned but I’ll change if it means I get curry. As Emily Howard would say, a small laydee’s curry of course...

Extraordinary! DS1 used to take his Brio trains for a walk in his toy buggy.

Trainsgender?

thebewilderness · 20/01/2018 21:44

I suppose gender and race can both be fluid while biological sex cannot because it only has Xs and Ys on offer..

HairyBallTheorem · 20/01/2018 22:53

DS used to hold tea parties in the dolls house for his toy cars. The lorries wouldn't fit, so the cars (very nurturing stereotype coming up, so they must have all been women...) decided to move things outside and have a BBQ on the bedroom carpet so the lorries didn't get left out.

(Loving trainsgender, btw).

TortiousTortoise · 20/01/2018 23:58

Pansexual and trainsgender, best things I've heard all day!

LanaKanesLeftNippleTassle · 21/01/2018 00:00

I think Trainsgender might have won the internet.

DP is clearly thinking I have lost it because I keep repeating it and laughing madly to myself. Grin

DP is with me on this btw.

When we had a conversation about it he was horrified (Dad of adult daughters) that his lovely, accepting daughters might be at risk in a womans toilet.
He's more amused by the gender stereotyping.

He finds it hilarious that the woman he is having great sex with would be considered male under these definitions.

Like another PP......he is the flower arranger/clothes shopper/present buyer in/better at housework person in our relationship....I am the motorbike mechanic/rugby playing/shaven headed/messy one.p

BUT.... Just to confuse these gender definitions....
I am the female SAHM....he is a boiler engineer.

WTF are we then??

badbadhusky · 21/01/2018 00:05

If you eschew gender identity’s tiresome artificial stereotyping and recognise people as individuals with their own unique interests and preferences, this is totally normal. People are just people.

I really, really, at one point, possibly definitely naively, thought we might have reached this point.

"People are just people" is what I fucking thought we were gearing/moving/working towards.
Race/religion/sex/dress etc etc. No matter what you wear/worship/fuck/look like....

I stupidly thought we were getting there....

Now I find my "gender critical" stance (didn't know at 18, make up less, wearing the baggiest of baggy shorts, dreads, xxl t shirts and riding my bmx that it was a "stance" Hmm) is actually transgender, and for the decades I've worn mens clothes and had "typically" "male" persuits that actuall I should have bedn male....rather than, ya know, a fucking woman with interests outside the dictated acceptable role.

thebewilderness · 21/01/2018 01:36

This current backlash against women's progress seems a particularly nasty one.

AngryAttackKittens · 21/01/2018 08:01

So I'm a woman on days when I'm going out somewhere I feel like dressing up for, and a man the rest of the time. Nice of this person to let me know. I'm genderfluid, the specialist snowflake of all!
