Forget the ridiculous toilet issue that is stealing the crown of utter inanity from the “Christian pizzerias refuse to cater gay weddings” fiasco and note how terrified these students are of any confrontation. If they find it impossible to say “You are wrong” to somebody who is obviously wrong, how do you think they react when I tell them “it’s la ciudad, not el ciudad” in class? And how often do you think they roll out a “But that’s my opinion!” in an earnest belief that this should immediately put an end to any questioning or discussion?
Fear of Confrontation

That is insane, though I would like to know how many kids they asked.
Someone on that campus must have answered “wrooong!!!” to the journalist.
Hopefully..

It is sweet that this generation wants people to be able to be whatever they believe they are. But there are times when facts are facts. Saying and believing you are 6’5″, for instance, doesn’t make it true.
In cases of gender identity, though, there is more fluidity — at least, I am persuaded that that is true based on studying gender identity and in my experience of other people. Not all things in life are completely fluid, though. If I hold up an apple and say, “Is this a banana?” the answer is obviously “no.” I worry that people are so afraid of confrontation that they can’t even say the obvious in a given situation.
