Bigender

[ExtraPlinky]

So what happens if someone identifies as male and female at different times?
What happens with the equality act?
What happens if this person works in an intimate care setting?
In a school?

Maybe ask Pip Bunce?

Well exact-fucking-ly.

"Bigender" always makes me think of the Big Enders and Little Enders of Gulliver's Travels.

Gender identity ideology as a Swiftian satire does make more sense than as a new reality with which to re-order society.

As a police officer?

They get to keep the cake and eat it.

(Or perhaps it should be: they get to eat the eggs from both ends.)

Must admit I thought it was Big Ender when I first read it. And then Shirley Bassey started to sing "Hey Big Ender" in my head.

How and why are women expected to accept that someone who Izzards back and forth is a) sane, b) has rights that can trump all safeguarding and sense?

If you're bigender Eddie Izzard, you get to play male roles one moment, then female the next:

Win-win.

In some ways ExtraPlinky, these people do the work of feminists for us. The fact that even the police didn't just say no to the officer who demands to be a man one day and a woman the next (with all the hazards that poses to vulnerable women and children) highlights how captured institutions are the the advocates of an ideology.
If you work in a role with vulnerable people then you need to be responsible. Demanding to intimately trip search people as a woman one day and a man the next is far from responsible.

So many typos

Responsible adults know this.

ExtraPinky I do like your new verb 'to izzard' meaning to go back and forth. I shall use it if I may.

Yep, see eddie izzard.

Eddie Izzard used to call themself a cross dresser. Does he think cross dressers don't exist now?

Moving the goalposts to suit his agenda isn’t it

@Nauticant don't you WISH Jonathan Swift were still with us to parody it all?

According to my local rape crisis centre it's having a clear trans and non-binary inclusion policy that is flexible and allows for changes in identity.

Translation: Say the magic words that you're under the trans umbrella and you can do whatever you please.

Why should the police say no to this person? Flippning between gender identities makes as much sense as claiming that you have a girldick or are a man who menstruates. If you adopt the trans ideology and accept any of those beliefs then you best accept them all, otherwise you're being transphobic or discriminatory or summat.
