Otherworldly View

In a world constantly shifting between ideas of individual freedom and societal expectations, the concept of gender identity stands out as one of the most fluid and, arguably, meaningless constructs of modern times. While some may argue that it empowers people to express themselves freely, the lack of any definition leaves the term in a constant state of ambiguity.

For those of us who value clarity and substance, gender identity doesn't provide much of either. Without a concrete framework to anchor it, the term becomes nothing more than a personal label, more rooted in subjective feeling than anything grounded in objective reality.

This happens becausewhen gender identity throws away every previous definition of gender up to this point in time. In its context, you cannot use them as reference. We're left wondering to what identity they're referring to, since no parameters are given.

There's no gender and no identity in the "gender identity" narrative

Gender - noun - a group of people in a society who share particular qualities or ways of behaving which that society associates with being male, female, or another identity

What does it mean to be a "woman" or a "man" in the context of gender identity? Who gets to define it? Is it based on biological reality, personal feelings, or societal norms? The answer, it seems, is always changing and never fully grounded in anything consistent, because it is self-defined. It can mean anything, it has no structure. Without a framework to give it meaning, gender identity risks becoming an empty construct - a set of terms people attach to themselves without any real validity.

A "woman" or a "man" in gender identity terms is often reduced to feeling - but if feeling alone is what defines the label, then the word itself loses value. There is no standard, no universally agreed-upon set of characteristics that determine what it means to be a man or a woman. How can they offer any real foundation for self-identification? They can't. It's as open-ended as it gets.

If both “woman” and “man” have no solid identity, how can anyone truly choose to identify with either? The very absence of definition undermines the core idea of choosing an identity.

Start making sense or choose more wisely

The gender identity narrative needs to come up with a solution for this loop of defining yourself as something that has no actual definition, which, as philosophical as it sounds, has nothing to do with gender. Otherwise, it's just a joke that causes societal problems.
