A zigbot is anyone that identifies as a zigbot. You just know you're one.

Are you male or female?

GeordieGenes · 28/03/2019 23:29

"Male" and "female" are subjective social concepts that have no place in a modern society.

It is much better to define humans by their gender.

Zigbot is a gender. I personally think it's the best gender, but then again, I'm biased!

Gender is a subjective feeling which you can't seem to define or convey so that it could be understood by society, it is therefore meaningless.

Zigbot being a subtype of gender is therefore also meaningless.

Therefore you have no meaning.

Nope. Your gender is the most important part of your entire identity! You should base your fashion, name, lifestyle, and so forth on your gender.

It's late @Lees....I know....Grin

BolloxtoGender · 28/03/2019 23:37

Define gender

GeordieGenes · 28/03/2019 23:38

Gender is your innate feeling of who you are, how you should act, what you should wear, and so forth.

What colour clutch bags do zigbots favour?

ErrolTheDragon · 28/03/2019 23:39

Hm, I don't feel strongly that I'm not a zigbot, does that mean I'm a zigbot?

BolloxtoGender · 28/03/2019 23:40

You mean your personality?

GeordieGenes · 28/03/2019 23:41

@cole

Zigbots prefer backpacks. Specifically those see-through inflatable bubble backpacks that were big in the 90s.

So if you say you feel like shit today, then you are a shit?

GeordieGenes · 28/03/2019 23:44

@errol

Maybe. It depends on who you are. Not everyone can be trusted to determine their gender identity.

If you're a five year old, I trust you to know. If you're 15, I trust you. If you're a 23-year old white man with a beard, I trust you.

However, if you're a 40-something housewife, then you are most likely incapable of truly understanding gender and are probably just a c*s-woman.

Describe the characteristics of zigbot gendered 'people' (am I allowed to use the word people or is that literal violence towards zigbotgenders?)?

@werise

Zigbots are people who feel like they are a zigbot. Simples.

OP posts:
BolloxtoGender · 28/03/2019 23:50

I see that your gender expresses itself as ageist, and misogynist.

GeordieGenes · 28/03/2019 23:51

@bollox

If that's the case, then surely that's the case for all genders?

OP posts:
BolloxtoGender · 28/03/2019 23:53

That is clearly the case.

Bit of a leap to extend it to all people.

ToeToToe · 28/03/2019 23:54

Did zigbots have skeletons prior to the Renaissance?

ErrolTheDragon · 28/03/2019 23:54

I was identifying as a 50-something academic in my previous post, does your answer still apply?

GeordieGenes · 28/03/2019 23:55

I should probably add, I am gender critical, middle-aged, and XX...

However, if we do adopt the brave new world of gender identity, then I need to find me a gender!

NoQuestion · 28/03/2019 23:55

It this type of shit thread which loses any real point that may need making.

GeordieGenes · 28/03/2019 23:56

Yes, this has turned out shitter than I planned.

But I do need a gender.

In fact, all I want is a word for people with XX chromosomes. There isn't one currently...
