What’s a gender?

Agender (one word) uses the “a” prefix to mean without.

A gender (two words) is generally a collection of common traits, ideas, or actions attributed to a group. Almost like a genre of music, or tv. Often, but not always, a person gender and sex match.

Who even fucking knows - that’s why this debate is so ridiculous. Just let people be who they are - it’s insane to try and legislate identity.

As written by a man who wears skirts because they look good.

That depends “when” and “where” you ask. What is considered to be masculine in the 1400’s in the Netherlands will likely differ than what is considered masculine in Korea in the 1800’s.

Just like Pop music from the 1920’s sounds different from pop music from the 2020’s, or pop music from India sounds different from pop music from China.

I’m surprised by this.

Not that the group poses a threat, but that CSIS both bothered to investigate and published this finding.

I lost a lot of faith in them based on their actions during the convoy, and through the grapevine I’ve heard their culture may be sympathetic to that type of cause, but that last part is hearsay I can’t back up at all.

Regardless of your cynical speculation, CSIS job is to collect information, not to make arrests.

5’8" is small? I think that’s pretty average. Looked it up, the average for Canadian males is 178cm. Just saying.

Oh, sounds like a terrorist group. Arrest and charge them as terrorists.

A former University of Waterloo student accused of attacking a gender-studies class with a knife last summer — sending an associate professor and two students to hospital — now faces 11 terrorism charges.

11 terrorism charges sounds like multiple life sentences to me.

Or approx. 6 months in the Canadian “justice” system. /s 😒

Why do I have a feeling he’s going to get 20 years, and you will still pretend he’s only getting a couple months.

Really? A group with fascist tendencies that’s being whipped up by money-grubbing grifters is prone to acts of violence against a marginalized group?

Why, I’m shocked. That has never happened before.
