Our local school board just voted to include the term "gender identification" in its non-discrimination policy.
"The Board is committed to a policy of nondiscrimination in relation to race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, disability, marital status, pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other............"
I had suggested that instead of adding gender identity they should remove sexual orientation and add " neurological disorders, sinful behavior, or.........." which would include everything else they'll ultimately need to add at a later date to keep everyone happy.

It's always the closet cases that cry the loudest about this sort of stuff, isn't it?
Homosexuality is not a neurological disorder. Having an alternate gender identity is not a sin. Neither of them lead to death and destruction, unlike your stupid beliefs.
Actually neurological disorders should not be discriminated against unless it impacts their ability to work.
Your made up 'sin' is simply a set of 2000+ year old laws that have no relevence to our society.

Oh, Tall Timbers, now you're just making this too easy!
As someone who has OCD,
Screw you,
Screw you,
Screw you.
A neurological disorder is not the same thing as homosexuality. Though I suppose if I told you that some people had both conditions, your head would explode.
And why does this matter? Seriously.
Just admit your bigotry, and FEAR, and be done with it.
Fundies are a hateful cowardly lot.
On one hand, homosexuality is a choice, so it can be punished by an indignant God. But it's simultaneously a neurological disorder, so they can make jeering comments, like they probably did to the downes syndrome children growing up. I think it has to do with the parallel universes that make it possible for the bible to have no contradictions.
Im sure they calmly and kindly listened to you, and then still voted to be kind and understanding.
Perhaps you and your fellow Cretins should take a lesson in kindness as well.
A grown man with imaginary friends who regularly gets boners for armageddon is claiming other people have neurological disorders?
PS: anyone notice how bigots will call everyone they hate psycho, disturbed, mentally ill, etc. but can never find a doctor outside of some hate site who agrees with them? and when shown reliable sources, say, the AMA or APA saying theirs nothing wrong with them they ignore it or blather about "those studies being proved wrong". one guy was so used to the later he called a simple statemment from the APA with no studies or figures cited saying that gays have no more psychological problems then straights a "biased discredited study". Didnt even fucking open the link.
Yes, the poor buggers on the school board must get regular correspondence from you. Tall Timbers wants to ban prom night because it promotes dancing, Tall timbers wants the word "sex" removed from sex education classes, Tall Timbers has a stack of Hovind videos and Chick tracts which he wants disseminated in all classes, etc, etc, etc.
I know there are some people who have "gender identity" changes because they think they should be a different gender.
What about people who are mixed gender. We have "genders" such as XXY and XYY. What do you class them as? Oh right you like your issues black and white.
I had suggested that instead of adding gender identity they should remove sexual orientation and add " neurological disorders, sinful behavior, or.........." which would include everything else they'll ultimately need to add at a later date to keep everyone happy.
- You would have suggested that, wouldn't you, to keep you and your closed-mind cronies happy, and fuck everyone else. How transparent can you get!
Which part of "neurological disorders" aren't covered by "disabilities"? How do you quantify "sinful behaviour"? Is it part of the "religion"?
Besides, it'd be fun to see what comes after the words "or any other". A free hint: usually it continues along the lines of "or any other physical or mental trait". Yes, folks, the listed ones are just a free preview!
<sarcasm>And I don't know if this particular country where Rapture Ready lies has adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a legislative guideline yet,</sarcasm> but at least here, this sort of anti-discrimination rule is part of the frigging *Constitution*; feel free to remove any part of them from your corporate anti-discrimination policy, but if anyone finds themselves discriminated they can still sue, *hard*.
"neurological disorders"
Which homosexuality is not.
"sinful behavior"
Tell that to all those 16 year old pregnant girls.
"would include everything else they'll ultimately need to add at a later date to keep everyone happy. "
Just cause it makes you happy doesn't mean it will make everyone happy.
Neurological disorders should not be discriminated against, generally.
Sin doesn't exist for nonbelievers, so...
Calling it "neurological disorders, sinful behavior, or", IS to discriminate against them, you doddering old fool.
We could remove "religion" and add the "neurological disorders", that you're so partial to...
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
