Thanks for your comment. I admit age-dependent media needs to exist to account for cognitive differences, of course a 5yo cant watch complicated content. I was being hasty with my comment.
For the rest of your comment, you are strawmanning so hard I cant even answer to that. I never said anything about sexual orientation and I dont know why you suddenly brought that up, we were talking about gender. Should I start talking about why you like Hitler? Just because someone has a left-leaning opinion on one topic doesnt mean they support whatever right-wing media are claiming leftism to be about. Noone wants to raise all kids as if they were queer, that is pure propaganda.
Okay look, the word "gender" has been so overused and misused at this point, it's like the words "patriarchy" and "woke" at this point. It means whatever you need it to mean right now to make the other person wrong. I'm pretty sure this notion of gender being anything other than another word for sex was invented on Tumblr some time in the last 8 years or so, it apparently doesn't refer to which kind of crotch you have or what you prefer to do with said crotch so...it refers to something that can't be measured or experienced about a person so it's a useless concept.
These people are no longer worth talking to or about. I leave them to their fate.
I dont know what youre on about. You are trying to make it sound like I am pushing some kind of gender agenda. We werent even talking about non-binary genders and I never brought that into the discussion, it was mainly about the male one.
