Gender Neutral language

Wank thread.

Pervert.

OK. So can someone please comprehensively explain to me what it means to, "Identify with the female gender"?

Do you 'feel' like you're a woman trapped in a man's body?

Better yet, how would you feel if you woke up tomorrow in the body of a woman but still possessing your own mind? Granted you'd mostly be confused, but would you be accepting of your body or would you 'feel' like you were in the wrong body? If you're accepting, you're cis-gendered. If you aren't you are transgender.

At the risk of setting fire to the thread, which gender do you identify with?

I’m male but have used the term love to many people, don’t have an issue if any of the ones I quoted are used when I’m being addressed, sometimes the Mrs gets pissed off though if I’m called darling!!

He's a hairy arsed farmer, probably the strongest bloke I've ever met, so does he.

A mate of mine at his place of work who’s been charged with breaching the equalities policy.His crime? During a meeting he asked a male colleague for his thoughts and a female one for her feelings. Some twonk in HR has decided he should be disciplined for not using gender neutral language.

It’s really got me thinking about how I use language.

What organisation is it - Wernham Hogg? Taking your comments at face value, I can't think of any serious business where this sort of time-wasting nonsense would be tolerated. The "HR twonk" would simply be binned.
