I'm just curious what y'all think about that aspect of your identity. What's it based on? What are its limits?

Woosh. You went on some rant that wasn’t relevant to the point.

The point is things are always imposed on people. To act otherwise is just ignoring how the world works.

I'd already responded to that point -- nobody is forced to play school sports.

I think our usage of "imposing one's will" is different - like if you go to a birthday party, the host is not "imposing their will" on you to eat chocolate cake, but by your usage they are.

But I'm out, feel free to destroy me, I don't want to waste time arguing with someone who thinks gatekeeping who gets to wear a dress is important.

Oddly I never stated my opinion one way or the other on the trans issue. I just used it as an example of having someone else’s will imposed on someone.

No by my usage, you can decide not to eat the chocolate cake. Cake isn’t a view.
