The left has evolved so quickly on gender denial that it's militantly condemning and regulating and fining people over concepts that it can't even understand. Or define.
Individuals living in New York City can choose from a minimum of 31 different gender identities, many of which allow them to fluctuate between some version or combination of male or female identities.
Businesses that don’t respect and accommodate an individual’s chosen gender identity risk incurring six-figure fines under rules implemented by the city’s Commission on Human Rights.
The list of protected gender identities is available online and includes options such as “gender bender,” “two spirit,” “third sex,” “androgynous,” “gender gifted,” and “pangender.” A city official speaking on background confirmed to The Daily Caller that all of the listed identities are protected by the city’s anti-discrimination laws, but said that the list was not exhaustive.
The city does not provide definitions of the various gender identities,
Of course it doesn't. And the list also makes no sense.
BI-GENDERED • CROSS-DRESSER • DRAG KING • DRAG QUEEN FEMME QUEEN • FEMALE-TO-MALE • FTM • GENDER BENDER GENDERQUEER • MALE-TO-FEMALE • MTF • NON-OP • HIJRA PANGENDER • TRANSEXUAL/TRANSSEXUAL • TRANS PERSON WOMAN • MAN • BUTCH • TWO-SPIRIT • TRANS • AGENDER THIRD SEX • GENDER FLUID • NON-BINARY TRANSGENDER ANDROGYNE • GENDER GIFTED • GENDER BLENDER • FEMME PERSON OF TRANSGENDER EXPERIENCE • ANDROGYNOUS
These appear on the handout we have. I'm going to skip by the obvious absurdity to note how incompetent this is. MTF is an abbreviation meaning Male to Female. Ditto for FTM. Whoever assembled this "pride" list thought that FTM was yet another gender and listed it separately. Which means that New York City has no idea of the meaning of the gender identities it's trying to enforce.
About 70 percent of this list means the same basic thing. Non-op is also redundant because the official doctrine now is that a man can claim to be a woman without undergoing any surgery.
Then there's Two Spirit which is a supposed Native American term. How many transgender Indians are there in New York? Ditto for Hijra, which is yet another culture's term for transgender. Are we going to have a list of gender identities in which every single culture's term for the concept will create another gender.
Gender gifted is yet another euphemism for gender bender, pangender and a bunch of the other terms. There are no actual definable differences here. This is a list of gender identities that no one, including the bureaucrats trying to enforce them, can define.
