That means that sometimes they are a man, and sometimes they are a man in a dress, with a wig, and socks stuffed down his top 😄 who believes they are now a woman. Absolutely, perfectly normal, we used to call them transvestites, but someone got offended by that. Glad we got that sorted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westward Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 You've got children!!! Does that mean you're heterosexual and have associated with other heterosexuals of the opposite gender? Whatever next! It's time you woke up and smelled the coffee because in the 21st century it's just not acceptable to have normal hormones. You don't refer to yourself as the breadwinner do you? If so you are truly doomed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIOLOGY is the reality we live in. I hope they know that. To say that gender is a social construct implies that it is not determined by your birth sex, your biology, if you will. Chromosomal and birth defect issues aside, generally speaking, girls grow up to be women, and boys grow up (for the most part) to be men. Their sexuality is a side issue. What I find disturbing is the willingness by todays society, medical and educational, to give people the option to change into something they were not born to be. This has become extremely prevalent, and does not bode well for the future. 12 minutes ago, AVB said: Sex is your private parts and your chromosomes, by gender is an expression of identity, and is brain based rather than genital based. So why do transgenders often eventually become transexuals ? I understand the differences between them. I also understand that sexuality is supposedly nothing to do with either, however. Why is it a lot of gay men (not all by any stretch) act extremely effeminately ? Like wise many lesbians (not all) act extremely masculine? You know the ones I mean ,cropped hair, butch, dungarees To say that all 3 things, gender, biology and sexuality are not interconnected is, to my mind inaccurate.

Does the BBC care what licence payers think..or want ? They have their agenda and thats pretty much that. My point is , does anyone seriously believe that LGBTQ issues are under represented on TV ?

It`s even worse in Midsomer. They have at least three murders per episode. Can`t be many people left in that village. Certainly wouldn`t wish to live there.

Yep and everybody is blackmailing everybody else because everybody has a guilty secret that could ruin them if it comes out. But viewers lap it up, the soaps get big viewing figures and earn big money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
