In the book of Exodus, those who wrote their pronouns on their doors were spared when the Gender God came for the firstborn of every household.

And that’s why we celebrate Trans Day of Visibility.

Reality check: Just remember that no one had heard of this nonsense just 10 years ago.

I was teaching at colleges until 2009, and I never heard anyone mention special pronouns. Nothing. Nada. Not a word. I sometimes had as many as 120 students per semester and never had a single student who identified themselves as trans. The whole issue of gender identity might as well not have existed.

Can you think of any phenomenon that's taken this seriously by so many people that basically came out of nowhere to become such a contentious issue in such a short span of time???

Unfortunately people have short memories and their genuine memories are easily overwritten by false ones. Malcolm Michael’s was always a transwoman of colour who started the Stonewall riots and gave LGB people their rights. Always. Since about 5 years ago always.

Can you think of any phenomenon

Not one that doesn't have massive, institutional backing somehow. Which definitely fits this one.

It's definitely a form of mass hysteria being pushed by a small group to get rich (https://thefederalist.com/2018/02/20/rich-white-men-institutionalizing-transgender-ideology/) while also becoming immensely popular with the large swaths of alienated, downtrodden, and pornsick Millennials and Gen-Zers for whom it is simultaneously a large embracing community but also the epitome of disadvantage and oppression, which for wokesters is absolutely critical for social clout. It's a modern secular religion who's appeal is like that of any other trendy phenomenon ("the goths are now the trans kids") and also has social and parasocial benefits for those involved. A perfect storm of profit motive, late capitalist hellscape, and (para)social factors coming together to produce society-wide madness.

I take solace in that, like all such fads, it will die out eventually. But not before destroying thousands of lives.

I graduated college in the mid-2010s. A pronoun was just a grammatical term when I was there. I was never asked my pronouns. The LGBT organization had like one trans person and actual gay/bi people. I didn’t even know the concept or know anyone who identified as such until the early 2010s. In fact, I remember seeing a guy wearing a skirt on campus and everyone thought that was progressive. We were this close to a movement abolishing gender roles…

Pokemon, perhaps. Which was equally possessed of meaningful substance.

Also I'm glad you got out before the gender cult showed up on campus. Yikes.

I went to a small university in the early 2010s. There were two trans people on a campus of 5,000. Both were lesbians. There wasn’t a single non-binary person.

I was 26 before I even met a trans person. As far as I can remember, the topic was never even mentioned during my entire college education.

Its jarring seeing how crazy they are, that could of been us, if we would have drank the kool aid. Luckily we have common sense. As a gay guy I never understand the gender pronoun insanity, its such a big turn off when they put there pronouns in there bio.

It hardly means anything anyway to announce them, since they've also decided they can change them on a whim.

So "Ellie" there is the kid's father, and after fathering a child, like only a MAN can do, at some point he started playing unicorn fairy rainbow dress up, and now is sooooooooooo happy for all of his son's (daughter's? Words don't mean anything any more, so for all I know he's talking about his dog in obedience classes and the names on the doors are for kennels) -- schoolmates to be equally insane sexual fetishists.

I'd like to see a new comedy about a young person at college who goes armed with a cross and holy water as the blue-haired genderspecials come after him. But in reality I expect a whole franchise of "Terf-hunters" to become a thing. It will be as big budget and full of unattractive actors as the X-Men, but it will be about TWAW and Gaydens making the world safe for the gender-marginalized. "Don't give them any ideas" -- I'm sure such a thing is already in pre-production. And maybe a new version of "Glee," but all trans. You know, stuff today's youth can relate to. "Terf Hunters Go to College" -- I'd almost bet money this title already exists in porn.

"Terf-hunters"

The University of Cambridge's student union recently released a 'terf spotting guide' which one academic at the university called 'how to spot a witch'.

I regret reading that flaming trainwreck of a text. Can someone pass the eye bleach?

I think I read that once and it infuriated me. I know it's off topic but I told someone recently about that comic you guys used to post on reddit of the happy black woman vs the unhappy white SJW. She Agreed with us on how nuts it all is.

I’m honestly convinced that people who major in gender studies do so because they couldn’t possibly hack it in a real major like chemistry or economics.

It makes me sad seeing the "before and after transition" pictures people are posting. I went to this particular person's Twitter page and there was a side-by-side of him and his wife before and after the transition and, honestly, I don't know how they can't see this, but both of them, and especially OP, looked much happier before the transition. In the before picture they're both genuinely smiling big smiles and seem to be so happy, and in the after picture, the wife looks like she's straining to force a big smile while Ellie here is basically just doing a closed-mouth smirk.

Are we really supposed to believe the couple on the right is the happier couple?

There was another one I saw where it was one of those, "Same place, two years apart," or whatever, and the pictures where he was a guy he seemed generally happy and healthy, and the pictures where he was a woman seemed like forced happiness. Also telling that he was drinking beer as a man but wine as a woman, which is a subtle hint that this is a person that has always been haunted by expected gender roles and thought that diving head-first into the trans world was the solution to their problems (men can't drink wine, you see).

Maybe it's just me reading too much into it; after all, I don't know these people or their lives or their minds, but... a picture is worth a thousand words and all that, and it just makes me really sad to see what these people are doing to themselves.

Same and it also turns my stomach. I think the couple you spoke about just needed to sit down with a decent non trans obsessed therapist and have it out with their confusion and a better set of friends. Friends that would said yes Michael men drink wine sometimes doesn't make you any less masculine. Or to the woman yes it's ok to wear a shirt you saw at the big and tall store. I'm just speculating but I think that what was needed not you're trans.

Doubt actual transsexuals fought for the right for..... having pronouns listed?

A dorm full of trans college kids ? Yikes on bikes, the insane drama that must go on. I was an RA in college, I cannot even begin to imagine what it is like to babysit these loons. "They deadnamed me !" "I was misgendered twice today !!" "My pronouns aren't respected !!!" sobbed the 6 foot tall beer bellied human in a frilly dress(2 sizes too small of course), furiously scratching its neckbeard as it wailed about the oppression of it all.
