Check Out

Why do I have to swipe my own debit card? You're a freaking cashier. Don't try and tell me your job is too prestigious, stressfull, and/or difficult to swipe it for me. You swipe it. I'm already busy bagging my own groceries since you don't know how to do that either.

Pants

Hey you, kid in my Philosophy class! If the holes outnumber your pockets, it's time to throw away those pants.

The Gender of Sex

Sex refers to the physical and biological makeup of a person. Gender refers to the socially constructed norms associated with each sex. So in essance, sex is hard to dispute but gender is flexible.

The U.S. law has set up a dichotomy in which only two possibilities exist: male or female. But what about the 6% of the U.S. population born with Gender Dysphoria? They had their sex arbitrarily decided for them by a doctor because they obviously didn't fit in the dichotomy.

As a christian, I'm supposed to believe in this dichotomy, but clearly some people don't fit. Where do they belong? Do they belong at all? I guess my problem is...sex doesn't seem to be so rigid as we think.
