Let’s examine how much of a joke Merriam Webster has become. Remember when a respectable dictionary wouldn’t dream of using a circular definition?
Well let’s look at these definitions. Female. “Having a gender identity the opposite of male.” 1/
So what is male? Why it’s having a gender identity that is the opposite of female, silly.
So the word male means having a gender identity which is the opposite of female which is the opposite of male which is the opposite of female ….
But wait. There is more. 2/
A gender identity is a person’s internal sense of being male (which is the opposite of female which is the oppose of male which is the opposite of female…), female (which is the opposite of male which is the opposite of female…), or some combination or neither. 3/
Now they haven’t defined what neither male or female is defined as, and I think we can all thank our lucky stars for that. Because we are already on one never ending feedback loop and one is quite enough. 4/
A girl is defined as a person whose gender identity is female. (Which remember means a gender identity that is not male.) 5/
But they did change the definition of woman back to an adult female person so they can pretend that they aren’t pushing the gender nonsense. (Except they snuck it in with the definition of female now.)
6/
Sex and gender are different. Except when they aren’t. Because one means the other but neither means anything?
This is what gender ideology does to you. It makes you look utterly ridiculous.
But wait. There is one more. 7/
Under the definition of s*x they explain it means males and females. They further explain that there is a clear delineation between sex and gender.
Which they seem to have forgotten when they defined the terms male and female. 8/
Imagine making yourself look like THIS bad.
The thing is. I don’t think they know how to think any more. They don’t know why a circular definition is bad. They don’t know they have contradicted themselves. Nor do they know what a female or male is.
9/
This ideology warps the ability to think. They must take such ridiculous stances that they paint themselves into a corner of garbled nonsense. Because none of it makes any sense. When you look closely, these gender ideology words mean nothing. Literally. 10/

The conversation of the day on X. It’s very interesting. I am Never Leaving this App. A thread.
It starts here. This seems like a very sensible, middle of the road, what should be obvious position. Very neutral.

Suddenly this person jumps in. I don’t think that looks have anything to do with this argument, but let me just say that profile picture is incredibly heavily edited. JK is not playing around here. 2/
He comes back and tries to manipulate the conversation. Then lays a down a heavy layer of guilt. JK swings it right back around to the issue. She won’t be tricked. 3/
Why is reach down so much for everyone? What is going on?????
I did some deep dives with grok and here is what I found out.
New algorithm rules per Grok:
Likes can penalize your reach. 1/
Replying to people too often can penalize your reach. 2/
Saying Thank You as a reply can penalize your reach. The algorithm sees it as having no value to say that to a person and let them know you appreciate them. 3/
A new study is out and it shows that after medical intervention things get worse, not better. Which is what we’ve been saying all along. This “gender affirming care” is worse than snake oil. It’s damaging.
