I knew someone who totaled his truck when he swerved at a cat on the freeway. He forgot that he was towing a race car and ended up flipping it in the median. He wasn't the brightest of people. :rolleyes:

And identifying as a man/woman will definitely override your biology when it comes to sex, and it's your wife's fault if she doesn't tapdance around that sufficiently carefully, right?

Dancing around 147 genders with associated nouns will get you a hip fracture. Though to me fractures are not really that hip.

*It's hip to be square.

Physiological sex, gender identity and orientation are all different things.
And there's no need to copulate to have a baby these days.
In fact, there's no need to even gestate to have a baby these days.
Heck, it's not even necessary to be female to gestate a baby. :wideeyed:
