discusses the possible implications of gender identity pronouns. It argues that, because gender is a social construct, people have the right to self-identify in any way they choose. If the state dictates that a person must identify with a certain gender, that person would have to be consistent in their self-identification or else their self-identification would be invalid. This could lead to people being deluded about their age or identity.

- 00:05:00 argues that gender identity pronouns, like "he" and "she," are social constructions and that there is no one correct way to identify. He also argues that third wave feminism is an extension of third wave feminism's argument that sex is a social construction. He believes that the reason the BBC does not want to hear this perspective is because it would challenge their liberal credentials.
- *00:10:00 Discusses how certain men were excluded from voting in the 19th century, but points out that this is a whole discussion that is beyond the scope of this video. He also discusses how black people in America didn't have voting rights until the 1950s, and how democracy and liberalism are implemented in a flawed way. He then goes on to say that he needs to go and walk around, and that someone else can join him in a video.

0:00:00 they're the same age right so if two 14
0:00:01 year olds in year nine
0:00:03 have sexual intercourse with each other
0:00:04 it's not seen as pedophilia but what if
0:00:06 now you have a year
0:00:07 12 we are 13 like an 18 year old he
0:00:10 wants to identify as a 14 year old
0:00:12 comes into school has a 14 year old
0:00:14 girlfriend 13 year old no
0:00:16 now what but he's identified the
0:00:17 teachers have accepted the
0:00:18 identification
0:00:20 so to what extent now does is there a
0:00:22 tension between
0:00:23 the law of consent and the
0:00:26 self-identification of this person
0:00:28 so are you telling me now because this
0:00:30 is the implication of this
0:00:31 it's very important you're you're saying
0:00:33 because they would say no this is an
0:00:34 exception we're not going to allow him
0:00:36 to identify with a younger age
0:00:37 but if that's the case what you're
0:00:39 saying is that the state knows best how
0:00:40 to identify you
0:00:42 in a legal way but that defies the whole
0:00:45 reason
0:00:46 so what you're saying to me is i would i
0:00:48 would argue that
0:00:49 gender is okay because it doesn't have
0:00:51 any consequences on the economy
0:00:53 on the political or social environment
0:00:55 because it doesn't harm anyone
0:00:57 in sometimes it does
0:01:00 right right no yes yes exactly we talked
0:01:02 about we talked about that yeah
0:01:04 no no 100 but then in the case of but
0:01:06 then in the case of age where you see
0:01:08 okay pedophilia this is that
0:01:09 child's rights disabled can i can i
0:01:12 identify as a disabled person if i'm not
0:01:13 disabled
0:01:14 am i entitled to disability living
0:01:15 allowance yeah exactly
0:01:17 no honestly i mean where does it end
0:01:19 because if i say i'm disabled the doctor
0:01:21 says no you're not disabled
0:01:22 but the doctor has given me a biological
0:01:24 rendering he's given me a scientific
0:01:27 conclusion but i'm a postmodernist i
0:01:29 don't believe in science to this extent
0:01:31 i believe my post-modernistic
0:01:33 identification of myself supersedes your
0:01:35 biological determinism
0:01:37 therefore i want to identify you know
0:01:39 what i'm trying to say as what
0:01:40 as disabled i'm blind give me a give me
0:01:44 a
0:01:44 multiplicity vehicle give me 300 400
0:01:46 pounds a month
0:01:47 please because i'm blind or i'm i'm
0:01:50 you know whatever it may be and so on
0:01:52 right so where does it end because
0:01:54 if the state starts saying no you can't
0:01:55 identify as disabled because you require
0:01:58 biological scientific evidence for that
0:02:01 you can't identify as 14.
0:02:03 because you require biological side then
0:02:04 there's a contradiction because you
0:02:05 can't say that
0:02:06 but then you can say you can identify
0:02:08 with a man because we disregard the
0:02:09 biology there
0:02:11 so if it's x yeah if it's x y
0:02:14 it's x y that's science right
0:02:17 if it's x y it's x y if it's x y it's
0:02:20 gonna invite us now
0:02:21 no no tell me what he already did
0:02:25 right if it's x y it's x y if it's x x
0:02:29 it's x x
0:02:30 that's that's a chromosome you can't
0:02:32 change that's biologically determined
0:02:34 but but how comes that can be changed
0:02:36 and manipulated and
0:02:37 identification of the self can be
0:02:40 superseded in that kind of instance but
0:02:41 when it comes to age and disability and
0:02:43 race in some cases some would argue
0:02:44 that's not the case that's why the left
0:02:46 wing
0:02:47 postmodernist has to really reassess
0:02:49 their on
0:02:50 ontology really well some people say
0:02:52 that they are doing it
0:02:53 with an end thing to actually try and
0:02:56 help promote
0:02:57 like you said pedosexuals they call
0:02:59 themselves pedosexuals they're trying
0:03:01 again
0:03:01 they're trying to yeah they're trying to
0:03:03 latch themselves on to the lgbt movement
0:03:06 so they can be the p
0:03:07 on the end and they've got themselves
0:03:10 an attractive person or something you're
0:03:14 trying to make it a normal thing
0:03:16 yes
0:03:21 and the problem is that the state itself
0:03:23 doesn't have any rigid biological way of
0:03:26 deter
0:03:26 of defining a child it doesn't have that
0:03:28 and different states have different
0:03:30 uh identifications it's true but the
0:03:33 point is
0:03:33 if it has set something in this case
0:03:35 it's the age of 16 yeah
0:03:37 if that's the arbitrary subjective but
0:03:39 it's a social
0:03:40 legalistic thing but they've put it 16
0:03:42 is the age of consent
0:03:44 then it has to be consistent and now if
0:03:46 you also say you have a free right to
0:03:48 identify yourself
0:03:49 then surely that could not mean that
0:03:51 there are any exceptions whatsoever
0:03:52 because that will
0:03:53 that will actually uh it defeats the
0:03:56 purpose of self-identification with
0:03:58 whatever you want
0:03:59 so if i'm a 16 year old that wants to
0:04:00 identify with 15 14 13 12.
0:04:04 yeah then i can do i should be able to
0:04:05 do that i agree
0:04:08 with that transphobe now probably no no
0:04:11 no
0:04:11 but you know i agree with
0:04:15 what you're saying where is it going to
0:04:16 end where where can it
0:04:18 it's just it would just like beat itself
0:04:21 up this
0:04:22 little oh 100 i absolutely agree with
0:04:24 that phrase because
0:04:25 it will eat itself up the reason why
0:04:27 itself up is because human beings
0:04:29 require certainty
0:04:30 that's one of the the things that human
0:04:32 being and language provides a kind of
0:04:34 communicative or it fulfills of
0:04:36 communicative functionality right
0:04:38 and if you take that communicative
0:04:40 functionality out of language then
0:04:42 language becomes
0:04:42 worthless so if you can have i mean
0:04:46 these people are literally
0:04:47 living a life of delusion a lot of them
0:04:50 are
0:04:50 deluded because what is deluding a
0:04:52 delusion what is illusion
0:04:54 if someone says i'm i'm 55 years old but
0:04:56 actually i'm
0:04:57 17. or i'm actually i'm 15.
0:05:01 isn't that delusion yeah well i can't so
0:05:03 often say i'm 50 going on 17 but that's
0:05:05 just because i feel like i'm young
0:05:16 anyways i hope that's clear i mean we
0:05:19 don't want to
0:05:20 but we agree on this one yeah
0:05:27 and doctors they're able to manipulate
0:05:30 much more within you know i don't know
0:05:32 the human anatomy so who knows where
0:05:34 we're going to be what we're going to be
0:05:36 medically what we're going to medically
0:05:37 become genetically
0:05:39 in the future so maybe a new pronoun
0:05:41 that are going to need to be developed
0:05:42 you know for people for what we're going
0:05:44 to become you know maybe people will be
0:05:46 absolutely androgynous this is where
0:05:49 they're looking to go
0:05:50 as well i think this is uh do you know
0:05:51 what is the sympnomatic of
0:05:53 this whole gender thing is an extension
0:05:55 of third wave feminism
0:05:57 okay now third wave feminism differs in
0:05:59 complexion
0:06:01 and intellectual argumentation from
0:06:03 second wave feminism
0:06:04 and so much as a lot of third wave
0:06:06 feminists argued that
0:06:08 sex is a social construction now
0:06:11 secondly feminists like
0:06:12 de bavar etc argued that gender was a
0:06:15 social construction which is much easier
0:06:17 argumentation to make
0:06:18 but to argue that sex is dif once again
0:06:21 it defeats the purpose because
0:06:23 as many of i think judas butler is one
0:06:25 of them but many of other
0:06:26 third wave feminists say that the penis
0:06:28 is a social construction right
0:06:29 the vaginas so if that's the case if you
0:06:31 believe that sex is a social
0:06:33 construction
0:06:34 then where do we stop in our
0:06:36 understanding of things that social
0:06:37 constructions
0:06:38 are you going to say that sex is a
0:06:39 cultural race is a social construction
0:06:41 ethnicity and social construction
0:06:42 nationality is a social construction
0:06:45 social construction no
0:06:46 don't tell me that you can't do that
0:06:48 this is cherry
0:06:51 but you know you know the argument of
0:06:52 social construction is problematic on
0:06:53 two levels
0:06:55 number one let us agree for the sake of
0:06:57 argument that sex is a social
0:06:58 construction
0:07:00 or let's agree that masculinity is a
0:07:02 social construction right
0:07:04 now it's a genetic fallacy to say just
0:07:05 because something is a social
0:07:07 construction it means it's false
0:07:08 there are many social constructions
0:07:10 which are true right it doesn't mean
0:07:12 that because something is socially
0:07:13 constructed that's where the origin
0:07:15 of the idea is that must mean that the
0:07:17 idea is false that's a genetic fallacy
0:07:19 right
0:07:20 because just because something is social
0:07:22 it doesn't mean number one is completely
0:07:24 disparate with intuitive
0:07:25 intuitionism something could be a social
0:07:27 construction as a result of
0:07:29 a combined intuitive experience of
0:07:31 collective peoples in a given place
0:07:33 so in other words people feel something
0:07:35 naturally and then that natural
0:07:37 collection of
0:07:38 feelings subjective experiences combines
0:07:41 into what is then referred to as social
0:07:42 construction but even so you can say
0:07:45 that some things which are intuitive
0:07:47 might be problematic so someone might
0:07:50 have
0:07:50 uh aggressive aggressive urges which
0:07:53 might lead them to murder
0:07:54 now that's not a social construction but
0:07:56 according to society something which is
0:07:58 wrong
0:07:58 it could be in the way that they kill
0:08:00 people it could be an element of social
0:08:02 construction based around culture
0:08:03 yes in some sexuality uh you know a
0:08:05 woman dresses up in laundry where you
0:08:07 might find it attractive
0:08:08 another culture a man might find that
0:08:09 well that's disgusting why not
0:08:12 right so look the idea just because
0:08:13 something is a social construction
0:08:14 doesn't mean it's wrong number one
0:08:15 number two even
0:08:16 you can't prove that what that person is
0:08:17 saying is not social construction
0:08:19 so with a third word feminist what i
0:08:21 would ask is how do you know what you're
0:08:23 saying
0:08:24 is not a social construction how can you
0:08:27 prove that what you're saying is not a
0:08:28 social concern why does the bbc not want
0:08:30 to hear
0:08:30 like for example that they want to hear
0:08:32 maybe the third way feminist their
0:08:33 social construction but not other
0:08:34 people's
0:08:35 uh perspective of what a social
0:08:38 construction like yours you know
0:08:39 i think that the question the bbc is a
0:08:41 little bit more i mean
0:08:42 i don't know i can't comment on the bbc
0:08:44 because i haven't done a data analysis
0:08:46 right but i think that the the issue is
0:08:49 that there is a lot of mainstream
0:08:52 organizations want to prove their
0:08:54 liberal
0:08:55 credentials they want to prove that
0:08:57 they're as inclusive as possible as
0:08:58 tolerant as possible and so on
0:09:00 and that they are open to new ideas and
0:09:02 openness and these things
0:09:04 but what the argument we're making today
0:09:06 is that that has to have
0:09:08 parameters all right and if those
0:09:10 parameters are not
0:09:11 clearly defined then you're going to
0:09:13 find yourself in circular arguments
0:09:15 and you're never going to get to the
0:09:16 bottom of anything especially with
0:09:18 children they need
0:09:19 their children need like they need to
0:09:21 know like boundaries and different
0:09:23 things otherwise they're just going to
0:09:24 get
0:09:24 of course they're going to be confused
0:09:26 it's just oh god
0:09:27 can i give you an example they won't get
0:09:29 confused with them what they do
0:09:30 yeah when they show a certain
0:09:32 perspective like the bbc they'll promote
0:09:34 you know
0:09:34 feminism they promote this feminism they
0:09:35 say women got the right to vote in 1918
0:09:37 yes but actually at the same time women
0:09:39 got the right to vote a large percentage
0:09:41 of men did too
0:09:42 because many men who didn't own land
0:09:43 yeah black people also couldn't black
0:09:45 people
0:09:45 don't yeah but they don't even men just
0:09:47 white men in their own societies
0:09:49 yeah i think that the workers work as
0:09:50 something a voting act or something like
0:09:52 that that was in the mid 18th century
0:09:54 19th century 1800's this was definitely
0:09:56 1918. have a look into it
0:09:58 the men i think you had different things
0:10:02 so for example 1918 women over the age
0:10:04 of 30 could vote
0:10:05 it was it was i think in 1930 something
0:10:08 that women
0:10:09 over the age of 18 could vote so there
0:10:11 was and men white men like you said
0:10:12 there were certain men that were
0:10:13 excluded from voting in the 19th century
0:10:15 but that's a whole discussion but and
0:10:17 black people in america couldn't vote
0:10:18 and there was all these these things
0:10:20 going on bbc they do
0:10:22 they do push
0:10:25 in the 50s they still had to sit but
0:10:27 let's be honest what is voting now is
0:10:29 first past the post system
0:10:30 you have two choices frankly i mean what
0:10:32 kind of a choice is that anyways
0:10:34 they want to stop you kidding yeah
0:10:36 anyway
0:10:38 now honestly you've got two choices for
0:10:40 the most part
0:10:41 the best you can do is probably get a
0:10:43 local mp to of the party you like in one
0:10:46 area but you know you're not going to
0:10:46 get them in government
0:10:48 and that's it shows you the restrictive
0:10:49 nature of so-called democracy you've got
0:10:51 two choices
0:10:52 and they're both and david cameron's
0:10:54 word fighting for middle ground so i
0:10:56 mean
0:10:56 the center uh you know british politics
0:10:59 is
0:10:59 focused on center ground they're all
0:11:01 fighting for it and you've got two
0:11:02 choices between blue and red
0:11:04 come in let's these these jargons don't
0:11:07 phase me because i know that democracy
0:11:08 and liberalism
0:11:09 in implementation when you actually look
0:11:12 at them with a you know with an eye
0:11:14 with a critical eye you start realizing
0:11:16 these flaws and these problems
0:11:17 i need to go can i yeah yes can i do it
0:11:21 what's that no no no can i can we can't
0:11:23 anyways guys i'm gonna go and walk
0:11:24 around as well but thank you okay i'm
0:11:26 getting
0:11:28 can we can we quickly do can i just
0:11:30 borrow you free
0:11:33 yeah you as well are you free and you
0:11:34 and you and you yeah i'm going to do a
0:11:36 video here you're not going to stand in
0:11:37 my head or something no
0:11:38 no no
