If you want. You now know what the etymology of that word is.

I was joking.

It's much easier to use than the "person whose birth certificate aligns with their preferred gender."
Just like transgender is so much easier to use than "person whose birth certificate does not align with their preferred gender."
But I think we're all (except Ivor, who admits he's not) sufficiently aware to use either terminology.
Normal doesn't apply to people because I'd hazard a guess that almost everyone has some sort of "not normalness" or abnormality.

Trying to be "normal" causes us to tell lies about ourselves, how much alcohol we drink, how much TV we watch, how many times we have sex. and what sort, how much we smoke, or whether we do at all, our height, our weight, what car we drive, where we live, etc, etc.
The desire to be normal overrides our moral values.
So now we've gone full circle - the vast majority of trans people want to be normal they want to fit into society, they don't want to make a fuss, they don't behave illegally.
Criminals take advantage of "normality" to pass as "normal" to commit crimes. They act as "normal" shoppers to shoplift, they act as "normal" in the crowd to pickpocket, they act as "normal" when scamming people, they act as "normal" passengers to travel without paying, etc.
Normality can be and is faked.

I am a man, an adult human male. As a male I have one X chromosome and one Y chromosome, and it is biologically impossible to change this. If I wanted I could identify as a women, but I'd still have the same chromosomes.

Ah - scientific talk, how old-fashioned.

It's probably some sort of prejudice to mention chromosomes these days.

It's just biological sex and gender.
A man choosing to become a woman is absolutely no different from a Arsenal supporter choosing to become a West Ham supporter.

You should be a public speaker . You'd be the biggest thing since the pied piper.

Do you want me speaking or using musical instruments to lure children to their doom? That's quite a difference! I guess i could do the kidnapping at weekends.

That's because gender is a made up social construct. The man can identify as a women if he wants, but he'll still be a male human.

Thats what I said to a teacher in the staff room the other day when talking about a young girl whom I thought was her twin brother.

 

[Ivor Windybottom]

Gender is (almost always) either male or female, and is (or was) a synonym for sex, i.e. male or female, i.e. what chromosomes you have.

The word has been hijacked by a campaigners, who have attempted to redefine it as being a social construct that may differ from sex.

This isn't language evolution, it's misuse of language for political reasons.

THIS IS STILL NOT TRUE

I have disproved every scrap of evidence that you produced to support your false assertion

Which is, er.....

Nothing.

Which bit exactly are you claiming is not true?

The law doesn't only bar "bilogical" men/transwomen from using women only spaces, it also demands that "biological" women/trans men use those same women only spaces.

And where is this supposed proof of disproving my evidence to support my assertion?
If you're going to be vague about what you are referring to, and making false claims of disproving evidence, how can we hope to have a sensible discussion?

 

[King Billy]

Weight lifting and boxing. But of course any sport where a male would have a distinct advantage over a female.

That's not entirely true. Many women are naturally stronger, faster, better, etc than many men.
So it's very simplistic to claim that men have an advantage over women.
