Six ‘Gender Identity’ choices? Wow! When I was a kid there were only two. Mine is documented and settled science.
Henry, though, may be a little confused from what I read.
Someone needs to flood UC with the accusation “I Am the Seventh Sex. I Will NOT Be Ignored?!
That should drive them crazy!
College Insurrection is brilliant!! I read it every day, as I do Legal Insurrection.
I must say…..I do have problems with commenting on CI. It seems to allow me to use the LI login, yet sometimes when I go there, I am not allowed to comment or log in……
I share and spread the love. Hope you’re having great success with it – nothing else online is like it, relating to college and Conservativism.
Thanks!
