It doesn't matter what you or I or "liberals" believe about the validity of gender constructs - and again, you're the one calling them invalid.  They exist. If a person wishes to conform to one of them, then they should go do that, and other people should stop looking for problems where there aren't any.  Wink

I could accurately sum up your entire position thusly-

"If wishes were horses, ergo liberals hold contradictory positions"

You know, I don't really think you're understanding my argument. But appreciate that you took the time to discuss this with me, so thanks.

By the way, I'm not trying to say 'liberals hold contradictory positions' at all. I don't mean for this to be a political thing, it's more of an academic thing.
