I'm sorry - but this is RIDICULOUS. I'm all for identifying any way you choose to identify but isn't this taking it a little far? Can't you just refer to a person by their name or the pronoun that fits them at the time?

Gender 101: A New Video Series, Episode One
Gender.
You're born either a boy or a girl, right?
It can seem so cut and dry to many of us... But if we look closer, at others (and sometimes even at ourselves), gender can be much more complicated. Much more interesting. Much more.
But Gender is something that is rarely spoken of in our culture.
With the help of a new friend, we're going to change that, one short webisode (or if you prefer, vlog) at a time.
So please, meet Lucy. I mean, meet Benji. I mean both. And hang out with us while we talk - and you can learn right along with me.

Namaste,
Lee
