Question Backlash as BBC teaches NINE year olds there is 100 Genders

https://twitter.com/talkRADIO/status...26713293844486

Quote:
The BBC has been criticised for this children's programme which suggests there are 100 different genders.

Why shouldn't the BBC produce programmes for young children that explore sex, gender and identity?
I must have missed this being taught in schools, when did we get to have 100 Genders?

And if we have that many, which is impossible, why are we having the BBC teaching it to kids as young as NINE?

Re: Backlash as BBC teaches NINE year olds there is 100 Genders

I’m curious if anyone could name them all and what’s distinctive about gender 76 vs genders 75 and 77.

Re: Backlash as BBC teaches NINE year olds there is 100 Genders

I am curious as to why stop at 100, why not 1,000, no in fact make it an infinite?

welcome to the world of genders/ pronouns/ wokety wokeness.

It's all total bollocks.

Two genders.

Re: Backlash as BBC teaches NINE year olds there is 100 Genders

Well yes, categorising things becomes pointless if you can’t distinguish them to the degree they have been segregated.

To that end, the number is completely irrelevant.

The "fascists" in control won't allow any sort of true backlash.

Just look at the treatment of JK Rowling and the whole practice of cancel culture that is endemic. Democracy and free speech has well and truly been hijacked.

Re: Backlash as BBC teaches NINE year olds there is 100 Genders

I am not attacking what has become the right to choose to be a different gender these days, I just don't get how it can be said there is 100 genders AND more crucially, how I don't think young minds need to be diluted to this kind of nonsense.

Re: Backlash as BBC teaches NINE year olds there is 100 Genders

Call me bigoted if you want but there are only 3, Male Female and 3rd if you include hermaphrodite


Anything else is just a mind set.

---------- Post added at 19:29 ---------- Previous post was at 19:25 ----------

OK make it 5 if you want to include those that swap sex.

Re: Backlash as BBC teaches NINE year olds there is 100 Genders

Technically the concept behind this is that gender identity and biological sex can be separated which is why they're saying you can have 'x' amount of genders. They're saying gender is essentially an invented construct. Hom3r says 'it's just a mind set' and actually that's probably the closest anyone has come to echoing what they would say.

It's something I have to admit to not really understanding but at the same time it doesn't really impact me nor is it something I have the energy to care greatly about. I do try to remember the world as we were taught it isn't always the world that'll be so....

Yes, invented by nature.
Its clearly just more PC bull.

Humans (like most of nature) were designed with two genders, anything else is invented, or a mutation.

Re: Backlash as BBC teaches NINE year olds there is 100 Genders

I refuse to be berated for not remembering to call someone by their chosen term for their gender especially if there's a hundred of them.It would be more useful to learn another language.

There are some genders capable of engendering (!) ambiguity:

Bigender 

Gender Fluid

Genderqueer
