Why must degenerative and weak behavior be celebrated?

Facebook today announced that users in the US now have the ability to select a custom gender for their Timeline profile pages. Aside from Male or Female, Facebook now offers "Other," a new setting that lets users choose between ten gender options such as "cisgender," "transgender," and "intersex," and define which pronoun they'd like to be referred to as — he / his, she / her, or they / their. Moreover, Facebook also now lets you define exactly who can see the Gender section on your profile. Facebook says it worked closely with LGBT activist groups to choose the new profile options.

Facebook's Diversity Page announcing it

haha the comments on the official photo are hilarious, can't make this shit up

"There is still no option to identify my relationship with my queer/genderqueer child without selecting Son or Daughter, even after they changed their profile to neutral pronouns"


"There are several gender options missing. It would be better to just be able to fill in our OWN gender identities. Also BTW Male and Female are actually NOT genders, they are sexes."

"Please allow us to select femme, butch, masculine-of-center, stud, and feminine-of-center as genders. Even now I cannot express my gender on Facebook, as femme is the only gender I identify as."


"This is a really great start. Thank you, Facebook; this meant a lot more to me as a binary trans person than I had expected it would."


I'm disapointed Facebook doesn't allow me to chose velociraptor

I should be able to select Martian as my race then. Only fair.

I just had to google what "male-of-center" means and came across this blog: http://dmabs.tumblr.com/

None of these dudes look even remotely female

This doesn't seem like a big deal to me really. I mean, it's not like you can't already set your gender to female or male arbitrarily anyway. It's just another piece of personal information for facebook to use.

Its just giving mentally ill people another platform to promote and validate their own "uniqueness".

people like this want to stand out so bad because they offer nothing to the world and to themselves.

even the language that they use is a deliberate creation to appear intellectual to confuse and belittle normal folk for not understanding them.

You know what's interesting? The black dude in that link for example says "so happy to be doing feminine things now". But for them what is "feminine". Aren't they themselves adhering to the binary there and essentially acknowledging their deviance? What he's doing [int their culture] shouldn't be defined as him being "feminine", but just..."being".

fuck all

If Facebook is going to allow this nonsense, then they should allow you to post your cock size with an avatar pic of it.

Quote:When you come to Facebook to connect with the people, causes, and organizations you care about, we want you to feel comfortable being your true, authentic self. An important part of this is the expression of gender, especially when it extends beyond the definitions of just “male” or "female.”

As if it's not enough that you can already leave the gender section in your profile blank, facebook now wants everyone to reveal their "true selves" by opting for artificial folderol such as "cisgender" or "intersex". How empty, alienated and sordid must your existence be that you feel better that a multibillion dollar corporation eventually acknowledges your eccentric gender identity and can now even better utilize your personal data and make it to more money.

These people are delusional. They probably call themselves "liberal" or "anti-capitalist" yet act like a corporation they voluntarily submit themselves to owes them anything.

Fuck it, I'm out of here. Theodor W. Adorno was right: "In many people it is already an impertinence to say 'I'."

First thought: Honestly, what the fuck is this?

Second thought: This will allow corporations to avoid marketing to these people. Considering the woman suing for being referred to as a woman, companies would rather avoid selling or marketing their goods and services to these people if it means avoiding stupid lawsuits.

Especially since people are complaining that the ten new gender options are not enough, there is little doubt that these people can be reasoned with. "Delusional" is the correct word:

Merriam-Webster Wrote:1 : the act of deluding : the state of being deluded
2 a : something that is falsely or delusively believed or propagated
2 b : a persistent false psychotic belief regarding the self or persons or objects outside the self that is maintained despite indisputable evidence to the contrary; also : the abnormal state marked by such beliefs

These mentally ill people will eventually breed themselves out of existence as they want secretly want to hit the self destruct button.

They are proud nihilists.

We as normal human males have to hold strong as it will be a really bumpy ride calling out this organized insanity.

I'm going to change mine right now: "OTHER: ALPHA MALE"

Red pill-aware men aren't exactly breeding like rabbits either, though, unfortunately.

Easy money for therapists and pharmaceutical companies who want to advertise to Facebook.

Just target the ads to anyone who is not labeled "Male" or "Female". 100% chance the person is mentally ill. Now that's targeted advertising!

Why the fuck can't I choose alligator?

Post: #21

but as men we could effectively have children on our death bed so we potentially have 40+ years or so to stand firm.

if we ride it out and keep on gaining knowledge and improving ourselves we will win.

Nearly all of these alternative gender people are hideous. It seems likely that they're drawn to this idiocy because its easier than admitting to their low SMV. Their inflated self esteem can't accept the obvious fact that they're repulse. So they rationalize like "I'm not a fucking ugly woman/loser male, I'm some other gender" (for which there's no standard by which I can be judged...since it's made up.)

Yea, maybe their options should be: Male, Female, Ugly

Same story as ever, productive people create useful stuff and some losers (socialists, etc) whine about it. Can't make their own stuff?

Also, This will be trolled to oblivion. Every time someone leaves their FB open, you need to get straight on and fuck with their gender settings.

Post: #24

The three options should be; Male, Female, Mentally unstable (and therefore should be put away in a home somewhere)

Post: #25

this is hilarious because even though it has the best intentions in mind, it's still gonna offend some group of thin-skinned pansies. Example: i once had a tranny tell me that white people aren't allowed to identify as "two-spirit" because it appropriates from native american culture. "you can't use this special snowflake label, you were born with too much privilege!"

A lot of us are relatively young (teens, 20s) and need to focus on finding our niche in this world before we do something as significant and irreversible as bringing children into the world

The girls who are ripe for reproduction like older guys anyways. Let's face it, when you were 18 you were probably just another blue-pill beta clown. Hardly father material.
