One thing that baffles me is that on the days she identifies as male, do they/them develop a lifetime of the male perspective and experience, which of course then disappears when they revert to identifying as female? What does it even mean to identify as a male if you are a biological woman? They/them has as much of an idea about what being male is as I (male/him/dude/guy) of being female which is zero.

You don't seem to understand that laws and the media don't dictate morality or beliefs. Nothing has changed. Most people don't believe gay relationships are moral nor do they believe transgenderism is moral. Don't believe those silly survey numbers. You act naive to believe that people were unaware of gays. Most countries have laws prohibiting the behavior so they obviously are aware of it.
They prohibit it because they don't view it as valid. Obviously they know it happens but they don't view the actual attraction felt between gay couples as a valid expression of sexuality. They deny by saying it's a trend or mental illness.
The key to keeping a dancing monkey from having a chance to remove it's leash is to constantly change the tune slightly and keep it off balance.
If she identifies as female on race day, and runs in the women’s race, why isn’t she inclined to wear a wig and a woman’s track outfit.
If she identifies as female on certain days, why did she always refuse to wear the women’s lifeguard outfit.
Ironic that someone keeps calling us transphobic when Nikki ain’t even transgender. Ha ha. Idiot!!!!
She basically your garden variety lesbian but for some reason wants some extra attention, like she more special that just a regular old lesbian.
No. It is like lying or cheating or gambling or drug use. Humans have temptations that are immoral.
F that! I’m not calling anyone they/them! So the proper sentence is; Niki ran a great race, they really kicked at the end? That’s not correct grammatical.
I’m sure she wouldn’t be happy if Centro decided he was a she and knocked her off the Olympic Team.
*grammatically
If she passes Jenny for the win in the final, it will be "they is passing Jenny." Or is it "they are passing Jenny?" Either way, the 80 year old guys watching the broadcast will think the announcer is blind and dumb.
They has been used as a singular pronoun for centuries.
"The delivery driver dropped your package off at my door. They must have read the address wrong."
How is this news. Someone makes a mistake, they apologize, nobody is upset EXCEPT the culture war conservatives watching on TV.
You all need to get a serious life lmao.

Gender and sex are the same thing. Females can be gay but not male.
It wasn't that long ago people denied the existence of gay people. People refused to acknowledge gay partnerships because they didn't want to be "forced" to valid it, they said it was lifestyle choice, they said they were corrupting children, attacking people in restrooms, abusing their bodies, mentally ill. You name it, everything they said about trans people today was said about gays 40 years ago.
Some of us don't like living in a society with bigots. Sometimes life is disappointing.
You need to apologize because she apologized, they didn't. Kara is female.

While I'm sure you're not rich you do sound like an insecure male afraid of losing your place in the world. It's going to be okay. Black people can vote. Non-binary people can be referred to as they. You and I will still get up and have coffee in the morning. The world isn't coming to an end.
Do you really think this is why folks oppose this p.c. nonsense, or are you just repeating talking points? I don’t think people feel like their status is being threatened by this new language tyranny, but lots of people sense that it’s a kind of wolf in sheep’s clothing.
By the way, plenty of women and POC don’t support all these new woke norms.
I'm old enough to have heard your concerns about "new language tyranny" word for word about gay rights, women's rights and civil rights. The subjects that threatens the bigots change but never their arguments.

Moreover, "please refer to me as I want" is hardly language tyranny. You can always choose to be rude!

The Bible is very clear that God made TWO genders: a man, and a rib. If you claim to be anything other than one of these, you are defying God.
Ha... a book of fairy tales is what you're making an argument with? My wife spent 10 years teaching vacation Bible school. She loves putting you fake Christians over the coals.
I assume you are only wearing cotton running clothes? Don't have a tattoo? No wearing gold, eating shell fish? All that is in the bible too.
You’re laughing Christians and calling the Bible fairy tales and you can keep a straight face calling her them and pushing her insane fairy tale? That’s rich! Wow.
Crazy liberal progressives have rammed this nonsense down our throat and they have done it in a well thought out manner. Control the language and meaning of words, indoctrinate youth with this insanity and control the media. What do you get? A mentally incapacitated man in the White House that is a puppet and Kamala. Not a good future for our country unless the pendulum swings back to some level of normalcy.

Are you actually unable to tell that the post you’re responding to was sarcastic?
I feel as though Nikki will accept the apology, as they probably understand that not everyone can immediately change the habit that comes from decades of assuming gender and not using nonbinary pronouns when referring to a person. It will take time. Not everyone gets cancelled. Only people who think that are people who just want to stir the pot
