Lol. I always come to grief with tinypic. Rarely get it right. Still don't.

Why is it a "gender reveal" party when I am being told that "gender" is not determined at birth ?

Peehaps they've not finished changing the definition of the word quite yet. Only the converted use the new version.

Interesting you mention the Gender section on AB profile, quite a few members don't choose.

[SparklyKid]

I was looking just out of interest to see how the question was broached.
It seems the majority are not quite ready to accept that gender means more than boy/girl.

Gender and sex are very often confused, sparkly. That seems to be most of the problem.

[SparklyKid]

Doesn't confuse me. Gender to me will always mean male or female. All this nonsense about choosing what you want to be is, quite frankly, barmy. It is only a short step from wanting to be a Jack Russell.

It's not even remotely related to wanting to be a Jack Russell. Hard to take anyone seriously who thinks that is a valid comparative situation.

[kvalidir]

Yeah Jim, but what if I wanted to be a male Jack Russell. eh, eh? You didn't think of that did you?

[pixie374]

Sparkly, Sex is male or female. It is binary.
Gender is whatever is stereotypically masculine or feminine. It is changeable in everyone.

[SparklyKid]

Just being light hearted about a ridiculously stupid notion about gender preference.

[pixie374]

Jim, it isn't that invalid when people claim biology is whatever they want it to be.

[jim360]

kval, it would just give me even more reason to start shouting at you.

Oh great, now you're going to be all for it :P

Seriously interesting though that AOG seems to identify being a Bulldog, possibly a lady Bulldog and Webbo has made himself look awfully like a Fox. The 'Lady' doth protest too much...Thin end of the wedge methinks...

When I was young I always felt like a male trapped in a female's body. Then I was born.
