What is nonbinary?

We Never Know

You know intersex conditions exist.
Typically speaking, surgerical intervention (normally at birth, even) is used when a person is born with more than one external sex organ. Does that mean all such folks are both male and female, even after surgery? Neither?

Like medical science uses sex reassignment surgery for more than just trans people seeking it. Which in a free society should be their right

Something I thought about..... At birth the Dr says its a boy or its a girl. Should they stop that?

Well no.
Technically the medical term used is “assigned male/female at birth.”
I think because intersex conditions are not always “obvious” at birth. So the Dr could “get it wrong” so to speak.
Possibly also helps them to avoid potential lawsuits against them later on lol

Because drag queens are talented entertainers, and exposing children to a wider variety of people makes them more understanding and open-minded.


What truth have drag queens forgotten?
They obviously are confused about what they are, so do we want people with mental issues telling our children it's normal.
It's ok to be trans, do your thing, but don't preach that it's anything other then a delusion

I don’t think Barry Humphries (who’s been portraying Dame Edna Everage for the last 50 years) is particularly confused about who he is. Just saying

Why not just say "you have a healthy baby"

It's currently called the "sex assigned at birth" (they use the word 'assigned' just in case it is an intersex baby with chromosomal or internal sex differences they didn't see simply by looking at the baby), and I don't see any reason to get rid of that, to be honest.

But maybe our current habits with performing corrective surgeries on intersex babies should be revised. But that's another issue I'm not well educated on.
