The Word Queer.

Some people just cringe when I say that word. “Queer”.

When I was growing up in the late 60’s and 70” it had a whole different connotation than it does now. Queer was often followed by “fag” or “faggot”. Then it was the fight or flight instinct that took over. I wasn’t much for fighting. I have several times in my life, just wasn’t much for it.

I’m surprised how the word has morphed over the decades, to where it stands for what its original intended use was. Queer simply means different. Odd, different… queer.

Gender vs Sex

Only two sexes. A Presidential Executive Order.

In some ways I agree with that, scientifically speaking, just taking the physical aspect as the criteria.

We are all born with a set chromosomal genetic base of YY or XY. That genetic code is in every cell of our body, and at this date impossible to change or dictate.

So in some sense the fool is correct…but. You know there’s always a but.

Gender revolution

I‘m starting a new movement, complete with buttons and t-shirts, one-size fits all ball caps, and little cocktail flags, A code of conduct, a secret hand-shake and annual conventions.

Okay, no convention. But I’d really like the handshake.

The Anti-Gender Establishment. AGE for short.

“Wait a sec, aren’t you the trans person searching for enlightenment?” your tempted to ask I can tell. But I’ll keep preaching on this until the cows come home (Kansas is big on cows).

Gender: a meaningless word.

Why?

Simply look up the definition in the OED, that’s the Oxford English Dictionary. And even there it’s wrong…

“The male sex or the female sex, especially when considered with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones, or one of a range of other identities that do not correspond to established ideas of male and female.”

Simply put:

Sex (male or female) X social norms.
