Just before I thought I had heard it all I see a new "cause".

I will call it "genderitis.

Apparently I am a CIS gender male of a certain age who obviously doesn't "get it" because I think that over kill has become the new normal.

The True Meaning of the Word 'Cisgender'

Somehow, we have found ourselves holding the wrong end of the bat. So to speak.

What used to be considered "normal" is now out of whack.

Let's start at the beginning.

This all starts with the transgender thing.

Look, I understand. I grew up with one of the first successful "sex change" stories. Christine Jorgensen. A nice gay guy who went to Scandinavia and had an operation, not the first guy to do it, and caused a shit storm.

Yeh, I know. I don't get it.

Fuck you.

I grew up with the idea that homosexuals were really women in hiding. All kinds of wrong thinking.

So this is nothing new. Yes. There are gender stereotypes. And there is nothing wrong in that. I like a good butch man with a bit of scruff and a bad attitude. I also like the fem slim and trim effete. It is all good for me.

But there is some screw loose with a lot of people. They want to categorize. To name.

It is fundamental I suppose. Primates who decided that they wanted to have a moniker and to have a name for everything else.

So now it is all about gender. Forget sexual preference. No. Sorry. Too complex.

Sometimes I figure that I will be going out at just the right time. I will not have to live through another wave of "liberation" and redo my biases and fucked up societally imprinted beliefs.
