Woman and Sex, means biological sex.

[Koolpc]

I know these things are wrong because I am intelligent and civilised.

 

[MNW67]

When a baby's sex is recorded, that is being assigned. What do you think the word means?

And that fact is that a binary classification is flawed.

You are deliberately conflating two different things. A small percentage of people, about 0.2%., are born with a Disorder of Sexual Development. You are trying to argue this is proof that biological sex is a spectrum, rather than being binary. It is a common ploy.

But perfectly willing to post up a generic Vet's pin, perfectly willing to tell the forum when you left the Army, your supposed tenure (that remarkably broke down into two stints when queried), perfectly willing to state that you did a three year stint (minimum is four years for the Army) then a six year stint, perfectly willing to tell the forum you have done two tours of Afghanistan and one of Iraq (somehow did these in your first three years in the Army ).

Perfectly willing to talk a lot about your past EXCEPT when someone questions you about the veracity. Righto boyo.

And for a bloke that doesn't do photos (when asked to verify something, surprise surprise) you certainly ain't shy when it suits.

Actually you are wrong. yet again, 3 years was the minimum service before 1999 4 years introduced after this date . But who cares about dates.

No it isn't.

Allocated, Designated, Assigned, Consigned, Recorded.
What is the differences in these words?

For me, assigned gives the appearance of a choice, like assigning someone a task. Recorded is better.

 

[denso13]

It is more like "Is that a birthmark, or just a temporary discolouring of the skin?"

Or something else.

It's still a choice, a choice of this or that.

I disagree, you aren't choosing one or the other, per say, simply recording a fact. There is a difference.

The whole meaning of assigning does not give a choice

 

[denso13]

I disagree, it implies an element of choice in my mind. Someone can be assigned to a particular task, that is completely someone's choice to do it or not.

 

[denso13]

If you are in a room, with two exits, you choose which exit to use.

You could choose either, it is a 50/50 choice based on luck. That's a bad analogy.

If you are assigned a task then you have no choice in the matter as that task has been assigned to you

The assigner has a choice.
