Since the beginning of time there have been men and there have been women. Those two genders were mentioned in the Bible, and if you are a religious sort you've actually read all about how they came to be. Adam and Eve they were called.
Across the entire animal kingdom, there are also just two genders in each species. There are no transgender lions and tigers and bears, no chickens or cats or dogs or horses. Or birds. Or zebras. I could go on, like Noah. But now, suddenly, starting several years ago but more recently expanding at a ridiculous rate, there are supposedly many genders.
They're popping up all over -- people who defy categorization: Men wearing full face makeup and long painted nails and lots of jewelry and dresses showing off their muscular, hairy calves. They have beards and Adam's apples and long hair. There are women with no breasts at all and short cropped crew cuts dressed in flannel plaid shirts and big boots and sporting neck tattoos who are trying their hardest to look like Paul Bunyan.
If we all had X-ray vision and could see through the silly costumes, it would be fairly easy to spot the different genders. There are just two of them. Two. There are men with penises and women without them. Why is it now so fashionable to say otherwise? What has happened to humanity and to sanity, and the sanity of humanity? Has evolution sped up to an incredibly insane pace for some unseen reason? Is it sun spots? Something in the food? Or from a lab?
I wish I knew.
