For the sake of repeating myself, I'm not concerned about the words on a piece of paper, or contained in an Email, from the government, being gender neutral, or for that mater gender positive. I don't care if the government address people as Mr, Mrs, Miss, Ms of Hairy Arse Wombat. What is of far greater concern to me is when a bigoted, racists from the extreme uses hate speak to racially vilify a minority, such as Asians. The consequences of such leads a predisposed gun toting nutter like Robert Long to murder eight people in Atlanta USA.

Malcolm Roberts, should be less concerned about what he reads on a letter from the government as he seems to be, and more concerned about the consequences of his and others hate speak towards minorities and where that leads. As I said earlier, Roberts may not fire the gun, but his type sure load the bullets.

Paul, NAH! Sorry, your last posting has no traction, because what some "nutter" does, goes far deeper than anything you, I or anyone can define or understand.
Do you know why?
Because if you're not a gun wielding "nutter" having experienced what he did that led him to that act, and even then, because you are nothing like him, you cannot begin to relate to him or his reasoning.
And for the record and all the anti gun, "nutters" out there, I can think of a much more effective way of killing many more people than with a gun that emits a projectile the width of a biro, thereby reducing the chances of hitting anyone, other than random shots hitting their intended targets.
You see Paul, if I were to be so pissed off with some one or some group, even though I have guns, the last thing I would use is a gun or guns.
You can cause so much more damage and carnage with a Molotov cocktail than even YOU would not fathom, nor be able to have an answer too.
So instead of being a sheeple and standing in both cue's of virtuosity AND condemnation of someone who has obviously been pushed beyond his limits, why don't you do the unthinkable and ask, "what led him to do what he did"?
I hear people say, "We don't care, just string him up".
Well Paul, until people like yourself learn about what makes people and the world tick, we will keep getting these kinds of anti-social acts, and like yourself and your ilk, will keep getting it wrong, as you continually demonstrate here on OLO.

I grew up knowing about two main genders, male and female.
In today's world we have people who are transgender.
Are we to deny them their rights?

Are you concerned about people being gaoled for failing to agree that someone with a vagina is a bloke?

If a woman wants to call herself a bloke or a person with a cock wants to pretend they're a sheila, I don't care. But I don't want to be forced to agree with their psychosis. But that's the aim of the LGBTQWERTY crowd.

Are we to deny them their rights?
Foxy,
We shouldn't just as they should accept that they're not more deserving than others & stop being in our faces !

Foxy, on cue.
What rights are they Foxy?
I can think of no rights that their "kind" have not enjoyed, equal to anyone else out there.
In fact, it is they who are demanding more rights than the general population.
So please in your oh so eloquent and fairytale way please enlighten us on what are these many rights we have deprived these individuals of.
Before you do, firstly understand one thing.
Some of these people are a product of nature, and we classify (name) them accordingly.
EG; Albino's, Dwarfs', Slow learners, and the list goes on.
So why is it that we MUST cow-tow to certain minorities and not ALL minorities.(rhetorical)
Because they were born that way and the medical and scientific community named them as what we call them today.
They can call themselves whatever they like.
I will call them out, each time, and I will call them whatever "I" like or choose!
And believe me, my description will ALWAYS be true and correct, and devoid of lies, twisted interpretations, wonderland references, fairytales, and of course that age old chestnut, the liars and deceivers language: POLITICAL CORRECTNESS.
