I find it genuinely funny how off you are in how many different ways. How should I start? https://twitter.com/theessem/status/1381601865029275657">https://twitter.com/theessem/...
First of all, yes, Oxford and Google too have altered their definitions just to please this, rather vocal minority of people what like to identify as something out of the “ordinary” two genders.
Second, by your phrase “many years old” I assume you think that society is constantly changing and pretty much everything and their definitions have all changed by now. I don’t necessarily disagree with that point. Society DOES change and it’s not a bad thing.
But, not everything in the world HAS to change for the sake of change and some stuff just downright cannot change. They remain the gold standard. Gender/sex is one of them. I’m sorry but gender is not a social construct.
I’ll repeat, biology has always said that gender/sex are related to reproduction and there are only two sides to reproduction, the male sperm, and the female egg. Not only that, but the two very different genitalia and distinct looks of the two genders support that statement.
Now, if you consider that to be “outdated”, then let’s use common sense and logic shall we? Since those never get outdated.
First of all, looks, just how distinct is an AMAB NB from a cis man? Not much.

From what I’ve seen (IRL and Google images alike) that NBs and a cis man/woman are very similar and not distinct enough to entirely classify as a new “gender.”
I’m sorry but just wearing partially feminine clothing and partially male clothing, and having long hair while doesn’t make a new gender.
Am I generalizing a lot? Yes I am. And I apologize for generalization but it’s just from what I’ve seen what people define NB as.

It also doesn’t make sense from minor angles, like different medical treatment for “multiple” different genders, which doesn’t exist. It’s only limited to male/man and female/woman only.
And lastly, there will be an argument that “gender is what is in your head not in your pants nor DNA”
That’s a very flawed way of defining gender.

It is a very common joke which the LGBT community has heard and has gotten frustrated over, and I apologize for repeating it, but if I identify as a heli, Is that my gender? I mean, you all did not leave any exceptions nor rules so a heli is my gender, right??
I’m sorry but that’s not how the world works. It’s not as simple as that. Dreams are also in your head but that doesn’t make them real.
This TRANS person mind you has created a video explaining how there’s only two genders and gender is not a social constructs. Don’t wanna take my words? Understandable. Take hers then. https://youtu.be/rnQbgShb6r8 ">https://youtu.be/rnQbgShb6...
The fact that dictionaries try to change definitions just for this group of people is them using it as an euphemism, sugarcoating the fact that yes, people who do identify by something other than the two genders are mentally deranged. And I’m sorry for that.
With all that said, I don’t hate you for Identifying as something other than a man or a woman, not for being mentally deranged. Autistic people are also mentally deranged but that doesn’t mean I hate them nor do I condone hating them. Mental illness doesn’t make you a bad person.
In conclusion, anything that you identify with is personal identification and i respect that. Just do not try to foreshadow the biological truths, is what I want from you. Is it really too much to ask?
