Gender Identity Nonsense 4, Distracting From Your Best Self

Hands down, the most insidious effect of “gender identities” is its tendency to pull people away from self improvement. Destructive energy flows from people who rush to define themselves through a few words. An outside observer sees such people as angry and defensive. These traits are rarely correlated with personal success.

Success can be defined in many ways; however a core component is always happiness. Even happiness is incredibly subjective. One thing is certain though, anger, bitterness, and paranoia are not traits that lead to happiness.

The attempt to adopt a series of feel good words to define oneself is an exercise in futility. There are too many pieces involved in describing a person. Summing someone up with made up words, is intentionally limiting a person’s understanding of them. Worse yet, it leads to misunderstandings with right thinking people.

Who you decide to fuck is only one part of who you are. Whether you are a man or a woman is only a footnote in someone’s story. If a person is asked; “Tell me about yourself?” and the answer is “I’m a Flibbertigibbet,” the question has not been answered. In fact, the person who uses such a trite and meaningless answer is reaching for something by demanding more from the questioner.

This same argument goes for any of the strange and meaningless terms embraced by Facebook. Engaging in a conversation with a self described <insert ridiculous gender term here> tends to be a circular discussion that always comes back to those words. Words, words, words…

Not on your life!

Asking the world to develop an entirely new set of pronouns to describe a person, when that person has accomplished nothing beyond existence, is inherently selfish. As a simple thought exercise, think of a historical figure and search Wikipedia for them. In this case, it doesn’t matter what sex they are, or what they accomplished. The only requirement is that they existed over 80 years ago.

Now read the first paragraph or three. No matter who is searched, at no point in those first paragraphs does any writer discuss who the person was fucking. Any mention of relationships is secondary information, and eclipsed by whatever made them famous or notorious. These people made themselves who they were without the need for specialized terms.

Nobody makes it through life without challenges. Introducing challenges voluntarily into one’s life by angrily adopting some idiot’s terms is pointless. That is, unless the point is to claim a permanent victim status. Unfortunately, those who view themselves as victims are never successful people.

Self professed victim-hood status is a failure of the mind. Successful people do not allow themselves to be seen as such. People for whom success is the only option allow nothing to get in their way. Victims allow life to happen to them, Real MEN happen to life.

Anything that distracts even the weakest of people from the simple goal of bettering themselves should not be tolerated. Mythical “Gender Identities” do just that. One cannot concentrate on developing their skills and strength by demanding others refer to them using specialized language.

Such demands require a singular focus on trivial matters. The world only cares about what it can get from you (this link is a MUST READ). If the only thing you are capable of producing is anger at not being called some bullshit word the acceptance movement came up with, you are worse than useless. You are a drain on the people around you. Few people have the combined empathy and tolerance to put up with such toxic people for long.

If you are genuinely confused, get un-confused. The only way to do that is to accomplish something. It doesn’t matter what you accomplish. Build something, learn something, or give something of yourself to those in need. Do anything other than whining and demanding.

Now get creating!

Two guarantees in life are that there will be obstacles, and that nobody really gives a shit. Sensible people will eject someone from their lives when they start being a drain. Centering one’s existence on adjectives rather than accomplishments will bring nothing but pain. True esteem, both internal and external comes from what one DOES, not from what someone says.

Strong, successful, free-thinking and independent people do not use gender identity words to define themselves. They instead become the best they can be; despite the words others use to describe them.
