The Facebook Forces New Perversions on Normal People -
02-15-2014, 05:18 AM
THIS story made me spit coffee this morning. The Facebook was already a cesspool of atheists, queers and crackpots. Now they are forcing every member to choose what gender they are....AND THERE ARE 50 CHOICES!
Quote:
Facebook Offers FIFTY Gender Options
MENLO PARK, Calif. (AP) — You don't have to be just male or female on Facebook anymore. The social media giant is adding a customizable option with about 50 different terms people can use to identify their gender as well as three preferred pronoun choices: him, her or them.
Facebook said the changes, shared with The Associated Press before the launch on Thursday, initially cover the company's 159 million monthly users in the U.S. and are aimed at giving people more choices in how they describe themselves, such as androgynous, bi-gender, intersex, gender fluid or transsexual.
"There's going to be a lot of people for whom this is going to mean nothing, but for the few it does impact, it means the world," said Facebook software engineer Brielle Harrison, who worked on the project and is herself undergoing gender transformation, from male to female. On Thursday, while watchdogging the software for any problems, she said she was also changing her Facebook identity from Female to TransWoman.
"All too often transgender people like myself and other gender nonconforming people are given this binary option, do you want to be male or female? What is your gender? And it's kind of disheartening because none of those let us tell others who we really are," she said. "This really changes that, and for the first time I get to go to the site and specify to all the people I know what my gender is."
Facebook, which has 1.15 billion active monthly users around the world, also allows them to keep their gender identity private and will continue to do so.
The change to the gender selection option is seen as a major step toward acceptance for people who don't self-identify as male or female, but the high-profile development seemed senseless to those who believe in two genders, no more.
"Of course Facebook is entitled to manage its wildly popular site as it sees fit, but here is the bottom line: It's impossible to deny the biological reality that humanity is divided into two halves - male and female," said Jeff Johnston, an issues analyst for Focus on the Family, an influential national religious organization based in Denver. "Those petitioning for the change insist that there are an infinite number of genders, but just saying it doesn't make it so. That said, we have a great deal of compassion for those who reject their biological sex and believe they are the opposite sex."
Masen Davis, executive director of the San Francisco-based Transgender Law Center, said it may be hard for some people to understand the importance of having the ability to select from multiple genders online. But he said many transgender people will be thrilled with the change.
"We applaud Facebook for making it possible for people to be their authentic selves online," he said.
In the past decade, the transgender movement has become much more organized and outspoken, demanding the kind of civil rights and respect already sought by gay activists. During this time, the transgender umbrella has been growing well beyond transsexuals to encompass a wide variety of gender identities.
The move by Facebook came after years of lobbying from users, some who started Facebook pages to petition for the change. Google+ offers male, female and "other" as choices, but transgender advocates said Facebook's many specific options puts the platform well ahead of any other online community. About 1 percent of Google+ users identify as other.
The idea of expanding gender choices percolated at Facebook for about a year and started to come to fruition during an in-house brainstorming four months ago, project manager Lexi Ross said.
Transgender activist Nori Herras-Castaneda, a spokeswoman for the Billy DeFrank LGBT Community Center in San Jose, said her community has been waiting for this to happen for a long time.
"We always talk about how gender is a spectrum," she said. "I can see a lot of people being extremely happy about this."
At this point, Facebook targets advertising according to male or female genders. For those who change to something neutral, ads will be targeted based on the pronoun they select for themselves. Unlike getting engaged or married, changing gender is not registered as a "life event" on the site and won't post on timelines. Therefore, Facebook said advertisers cannot target ads to those who declare themselves transgender or recently changed their gender.
Users also can separately indicate whether they want to be referred to as he, she or they.
Facebook came up with its range of terms after consulting with leading gay and transgender activists, and the company plans to continue working with them. Facebook started the options in the U.S. and plans to take it global after working with activists abroad to come up with terms appropriate in other countries.
Herras-Castaneda said she did expect some anger.
"Any time the transgender community makes advances, there is backlash, and this is a very big advance, so yes, we'll face some problems, no doubt," she said.
At Facebook, staffers said the expanded options were never questioned, from CEO Mark Zuckerberg on down.
"Really, there was no debate within Facebook about the social implications at all," said Alex Schultz, director of growth. "It was simple: Not allowing people to express something so fundamental is not really cool so we did something. Hopefully a more open and connected world will, by extension, make this a more understanding and tolerant world."

There are no mentions of other genders in Bible beside man and woman.
The U.S. Department of Family Values have upgraded Facebook from "procrastination risk" to "harmful for Family Values" as a result, and it is now blocked in default settings by firewalls which comply with the SAFE™ (Security And Family Enhancement) initiative.
SAFE™ is an initiative by the U.S. Department of Family Values to protect youths against harmful content on the Internet, including but not limited to porn, homosexual and intergender propaganda. It do also benefit workplaces by providing a simple method to block websites associated with procrastination.

It is harming us, this act by facebook hurts me more than anything has hurt me in years. By saying there are fifty different genders facebook directly attacks God and the Bible, implying the Bible is either not an exhaustive or a correct guide to life. Why would they do that, unless it is to attack us and hurt us? It doesn't do anyone any good...
The Bible tells us of men (Genesis 1:26), women (Genesis 2:22) and eunuchs (Matthew 19:12). Nothing else. Anyone saying there is something else is saying the Bible is wrong. Someone who says the Bible is wrong is an infidel in the service of Satan, and deserving death.
Leviticus 26:15-16
And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but that ye break my covenant: I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.

There are 2 billion Christians on earth, why should all of us change when only Facebook is at fault? Your "solution" is quite unreasonable.

Indeed Sister. And do we address, erm, it as "Madam" or "Sir"?
PS: is "guppy" a gender too?

I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt:
open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

They seem to be adding as time goes on - there are now 56 ways to spit in the face of Jesus and His Glorious Creation. Notice there are no longer any terms like "Man" or "Woman", or simply "Male" and "Female".

Where is Male and Female on that list? They don't exist. So we now have to choose 'CIS Male' or 'CIS Female'? 'CIS' is of course an invention of the queer transsexuals to make it seem that normal people are in fact, queer. So they are forcing their lifestyle on us. That is what everyone (True Christian ™, heathen or even atheist) should object to.
'Two spirit'. What does that mean. There is only spirit; and that is the Holy Spirit. Unless they're referring to alcoholics mixing their gin and rum.

What on earth is "neither" going to be? Is that another word for eunuch?
Quote:
Matthew 19:12 For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.

I'm so confused. So now I'm a cis female? What does that even mean? My Husband won't take very kindly to somebody calling him a cis male!
Since when is normal an "orientation"?

Amen, sister. They should ask one thing: Are you oriented towards Sin, or are you oriented towards Christ? That's the only question anyone is interested in anyway, ultimately.
Hello, my name is Mary. I hope to fellowship with you! That is, unless you don't listen to church authority (Deuteronomy 17:12); are a witch (Exodus 22:17); are a homosexual (Leviticus 20:13; Romans 1:24-32); or fortuneteller (Leviticus 20:27) or a snotty kid who hits their dad (Exodus 21:15); or curses their parents (Proverbs 20:20; Leviticus 20:9); an adulterer (Leviticus 20:10); a non-Christian (Exodus 22:19; Deuteronomy 13:7-12; Deuteronomy 17:2-5;Romans 1:24-32); an atheist (2 Chronicles 15:12-13); or false prophet (Zechariah 13:3); from the town of one who worships another, false god (Deuteronomy 13:13-19); were a non-virgin bride (Deuteronomy 22:20-21); or blasphemer (Leviticus 24:10-16), as God calls for your execution and will no doubt send you to Hell, and I have no interest developing a friendship with the Spiritually Walking Dead.

I spent some time studying this list yesterday while waiting at a very manly barber shop.
What in the wide wide world of sports is 'gender fluid'? None of the other men knew and I'm not sure I want to ask a live one.
"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven." (Matthew 5:16)
"But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery." (Matthew 5:32)
