What? War?

Nope just saying the rest of responsible world isn't as "woke" as some here and think we are insane and weak by such representation...I  agree

Woke? Do you know the origin of the word?

Some of you guys are a strange lot..its not different its sick

You actually accept someone in a top secret clearance- nuclear- that doesn't know if he is a man or a woman?

Limiting your view to what you think life should be, and what it actually is - is your issue.

7.5 billion examples of humans on the planet, and you can honestly say that in the creation of a human, all the chemistry, and biology involved to fabricate those billions of cells, life cannot create something different from what you think is the "norm"?

I guess no child has ever been born deaf, or without limbs? Needed glasses, or developed dyslexia? Ever hear of Albert Einstein, Helen Keller? How about the wealthiest guy on the planet - Elon Musk, self described having Aspergers (Autism)? Hundreds of thousands of different people, born outside "your norm" successfully contribute to society every day.

Are they sick? Are they less? Do they make our country weak?

So a "person" wears a dress, identifies as Gender Fluid, has a BS in Nuclear Engineering, a dual Masters in Nuclear Engineering, and Tech & Policy from MIT, works and contributes to our country, faces public discrimination, prejudice, and narrow minded people, and they are a threat? They are weak?

Given the choice between somebody that is willing to go out and put in the time to get an education, a career, and stand in the face of prejudice to live their life OR some curmudgeon that continually disparages his country the choice isn't hard whom to accept. Seems to me this person knows exactly who they are.

And since you broached the subject. These "sick" people are here, work and live amongst us. What do you suggest should happen to them? Asking for LGBTQIA friend.

Er not the same but you know that semp

Not sure why some try to make excuses for this crazy

Or enemies are emboldened by it

I mark it down to the closet types.

Tyfoo, thank you for this post. It's so refreshing for me to read an intelligent and thought-out comment on some of the drivel that appears on this board.

if only some people would realize the things that makes us strong is that we are different. and those differences should bring us together. it isn't us vs them. it's me against me now,  what I want, what I wish.

Anyone who thinks that outfit was appropriate is crazy. You can dress as badly as you like in the privacy of your own home. When you represent the US you need some style.

I think the dress is awful. but what exactly is style? for years my wife bought me shorts, didn't like them, think any guy that wears shorts needs his head examined. that along with baseball hats,  what are you 10? don't even get me started on sports t-shirts. last time you played sports was in high-school, if that.

now I wear shorts because it's hard to put on pants, still don't wear a baseball cal, I'm not 10.

on the other hand I could teach them about nicest dresses and what a woman should wear, or if you want to be a woman. I did ask the clothes shopping for my wife and she always looked great.

I should start a second career on how to dress women, probably would get sued if I go into the dressing room.

It's what made you think the dress is awful. It's your personal sense of what is appropriate, attractive, practical, and fun.

or maybe some of us will defend another us citizen because we feel secure in our manhood. how they dress doesn't affect me.  what they do and how they act does.

that's why you won't complain about space lazers but think a dress makes you mentally unstable. is the one who believes in space reptilians really sane? we are being replaced? I could go on and on

who's the nut.

Style. In the case of two men it's better to wear suits. Otherwise it's a self-centered display that competes with the occasion.
