But I do understand the concern, and I do also think the change in law (if it is as extensive as this) is ridiculous.
Where my issue lies, for clarification, is that the posts on this topic are NOT always so well reasoned and the arguments not always so well set out, and they descend into mocking / "crying laughing face type" / posts that scream "dick dick dick cock cock" over and over pointedly.
There have also been threads where genuine transsexuals have been repeatedly refered to as he / him / man / boy.
AND the fact that you've stated quite clearly that you don't really believe in the concept of biological gender beyond the physical and have posted skeptically about "souls" etc.
And these sentiments get a lot of support from others, too.
Basically, there's quite a lot of "evidence" that suggests to me that this is not at all "just about the issue of self-id". That clearly is a big PART of what the issue is here, but it doesn't seem to be the whole issue, and that seems to be being tip-toed around and that frustrates me.

Oh so the mocking, laughing, rolling eyes smileys are annoying you? Welcome to my world.
So can we have an example of one of these posts? quote them... If it's not myself or Vicky that you have taken exception to that narrows it down a little.
I don't know how souls relate to the physical body but in all fairness I haven't seen any support for that theory either, that was as far as I see a very personal view.
As you've shown in relation to the proposed law changes you haven't the scope of information to have an opinion, therefore I fail to see how that elevates you to a position to criticise anyone that has and does take this proposal very seriously.
I would go as far as to say it says something about your own sense of self importance that you feel you can challenge the views of those concerned while you yourself plead ignorance.
