A genderless society?

Maybe this is a prelude of future trends. Sounds crazy but 40 years ago people would've said the same of gay marriage.

Pop’s parents [see footnote], both 24, made a decision when their baby was born to keep Pop’s sex a secret. Aside from a select few – those who have changed the child’s diaper – nobody knows Pop’s gender; if anyone enquires, Pop’s parents simply say they don’t disclose this information.

In an interview with newspaper Svenska Dagbladet in March, the parents were quoted saying their decision was rooted in the feminist philosophy that gender is a social construction.

“We want Pop to grow up more freely and avoid being forced into a specific gender mould from the outset,” Pop’s mother said. “It's cruel to bring a child into the world with a blue or pink stamp on their forehead.”

The child's parents said so long as they keep Pop’s gender a secret, he or she will be able to avoid preconceived notions of how people should be treated if male or female.

This is like child abuse to me. Feminism taken to a pathological extreme.

Yes, instead they will be treated like a FREAK which is so much better than being male or female.

These people are imbeciles and should not be allowed to have kids.

This is what happens when an AFC mates with a goddamn lunatic. Pay attention guys, you do not want to be this fvcking loser. In moments of weakness, think to these mentally challenged nutjobs and say, "dear God I will not be like them." Then bang the hottest girl you can seduce.

Dear God...this world is falling apart.

while it's sad that those two nutters would treat thier kid like that, it's also easy enough for any hungry reporter to find any abnormal behavior and try create readership by painting it as a trend in society.

Looked how it riled you enough to post a link to the story in an internet forum.

by promoting the discussion and reading of this story, you are playing right in to the reports scheme. Battle for your attention, and all that.

A better alternative might be to ignore sh!t like this and focus on improving and enjoying your own life to the point of all else.

If this carries on, if the kid is female, she's going to have some serious BPD. And if it's male, it's going to have one crushed sexuality and probably BPD as well. (I'm of the opinion homosexuality is of genetic origin but it brought to light by events in your life)

It's going to be pretty obvious soon enough. Those parents are stupid if they think they can hide that information once the kid gets out of its diapers.

There's nothing to get worked up about anyway. Sweden is the stronghold of feminism and white knight afcs. We should take their example of how not to raise our kids.

 

[Captain Harlock]

The kid's probably queer as hell. There's no point in buying him GI Joes if he wants little ponies. Contrary to what his mother would want, he'll never marry a woman and become some castrated afc. Instead he'll be getting laid with men all day.

Instead he'll be getting laid with men all day.

He'll probably be a cop and take out his frustrations on other people.

I think this will be a good test, even though the parents are raising him this way, his biology will win out and he will be a horny/act like any other guy. He might be confused in his childhood but by the time of puberty he will understand he is male. Plus he will have natural attraction for females unless he was born ghey.

Men are men

Women are women

I don't see why people think gender roles are so "Bad" or "negative". it keeps society going

sure kids should be able to live life they way they want, but these people are taking it to the extreme

best just to ignore it. there are crazies in everything

 

[Captain Harlock]

what are the parents going to say when other people are going to make assumptions about its gender?

"oh what a cute boy"
"it's not a boy"
"oh what a cute girl then"
"it's not a girl either"
"...?"

 

[Rollo Tomassi]

the parents were quoted saying their decision was rooted in the feminist philosophy that gender is a social construction.

This is the feminist paradox; if gender is not a genetic trait and in fact a social construct, then it follows that homosexuals are conditioned into their sexual preference and not the result of a genetic difference. If gender has genetic origins, then we cannot help but be men and women and they are deliberately corrupting that balance.

Wow people using their child for what is essentially a socialogical experiment. That's just plain horrible, I really can't put it any other way than that. The child will not be able to fit in with anyone because the can't even identify with themselves. Being labled as a man or a woman is in no way wrong. We all have certian equipment that we're built with, that's nature. Denying an inoccent of the chance to do so certainly is wrong, and is definately boarderline child abuse depening on how far they go with it.

I read a really fvcking twisted story a few years ago about how a boy was raised to be a girl. The fvcking doctor cut his penis off during circumcision, and advised the family to raise him as a girl. He wore dresses, played with dolls, but he never actually "felt" like a girl.

5hit got complicated when he started to grow facial hair and his voice changed. Needless to say, he ended up in therapy and had numerous suicide attempts.

This kid is going to end up the same way.

I saw the same story or a similar one on TV where the guy who the doctor mutilated eventually tracked the doctor down and had a gun pointed at that negligent SOB's head with the full intention of taking the doc and himself out of this world.

I guess the doctor's pathetic crying and screaming that he was oh so sorry was enough to get the guy to back down.

Anyway the guy didn't go to prison for that as I guess the doc didn't call the cops or press charges and eventually the guy got some sort of penis surgically built for himself and now has about as normal of a life as he is going to be able to get with his girlfriend.

Poor bastard.

I'd be all for publically ending that doctor by firing squad or hanging or better yet have the doctor's c0ck transplanted to his victim.

Any of these and I'd consider justice served but I guess justice was served in a way since the victim was apparently satisfied with just making the doc piss his pants in fear of his life.
