• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Sexuality is complicated across the animal kingdom. In humans, there are predominantly two genetic sexes, with a very small percentage of chromosomal divergence (e.g. XXY, X, XYY, XXX). There are predominantly two anatomical sex configurations, with a small percentage of anatomically different presentations. These non-binary variations are generally called 'intersex' for want of a better word.

When it comes to physiological sex, there is a broad spectrum with two broad peaks corresponding to normative male and female. The spectrum is broad because it involves both genetic and developmental influences.

A peaked distribution also applies to sexual preference and gender identity, which are also the result of genetic and developmental influences (gender identity is the personal sense of one's own gender). The peaks roughly correspond to normative physiological male & female (reversed for sexual preference).

For those outside the normative peaks of those distributions, problems arise, not just from general ignorance and cultural inertia, but for the many who are between those normative peaks and either extreme of the spectrum, there are conflicting social and psychological pressures, and the physiological and psychologically pressures of puberty just serve to complicate things.

Categorising the world and dividing continua into arbitrary blocks helps us understand and organise the world by simplifying it, particularly socially and culturally, but they're often crude approximations that don't always mesh with individual experience.
Gender identity is a deception.
