non-gender-based discrimination
fight sex-less-ism!
sieg heil!
Ein Volks, Ein Reich, Ein Fuzz-er!
Sadly this isn’t really that wrong, in Sweden parents are fighting to keep their child’s gender a secret.
http://www.thelocal.se/20232/20090623/
Wow, thanks for the link. Actually, I find it quite interesting…they have some good arguments there, after all.
Except for the guy who committed suicide as a result of a similar experiment…
Err, there’s a difference between being raised gender-neutral and being raised as the opposite sex.
hundred bucks says the kid is a hermafrodite
Hir must have lovely hair.
I think they mean non-gender as in children that are not your gender. Hopefully this clears things up.
100 bucks says that you cant spell hermaphrodite.
lmao!!!
damn you right….. *Takes 100 out off wallet*….
That’s an offensive term, you know.
If “the kid is a hermaFrodite”, does that mean h is atypically gendered AND has an afro?!
They have some bad arguments, too:
“Girls are told they are cute in their dresses, and boys are told they are cool with their car toys. ”
I can see that. However:
“But if you give them no gender they will be seen more as a human or not a stereotype as a boy or girl.”
Just not true – they will be seen as freaks, the parents will be seen as weirdos. Now I’m not arguing that this is right – but it *will* happen.
Not true. I am a stright woman, and I played with mostly boy toys, and had guys for friends. I did not like dolls, never played dress up and was always active – playing street hockey, gaming and the like. I am not seen as a freak nor my parents as weirdos. They let me choose to be what I am – a girl that liked to play rough and eschews girly things. I’m engaged, by the way. I turned out fine.
fighting? so what do they do? put their daughters in jeans and sons in dresses?
Nah, we just try not to dress our children sensibly and avoid dressing girls exclusively in pink and boys exclusively in blue.
You forgot to say *two* parents in (the whole of) Sweden. Hardly the population of Sweden, who presumably don’t need to sacrifice their children to feed their personal fetishes (no mention that the parents chose to live gender neutral, I note).
heh… “As with any family secret, when we try to keep an elemental truth from children, it usually blows up in the parent’s face”
except they’re not hiding anything from the kid, who is quite aware of which equipment he/she has- they’re hiding it from the outside world. One kid, yes will probably have issues, kids are cruel to each other- but if lots of people did this, it would be interesting to see what would come of it.
Less sex or more? Interesting…..
totally.
Hmmm! Let me think ………………………………………. Let’s bash some Marylin Manson children!
Boys have a penis, girls have a vagina, and you, little one, have no entry into this bathroom. Piss off! Oh wait, you can’t. Hahahaha!
Don’t joke like that! Every 3 hours, a genderless child is unable to pee…
I bet they sweat a lot.
What do they do for the rest of the time?
well, i guess they can poop, so…
LOLOLOL
lololollolollolloll hackz
No.
We’re serious. :[
Do not laugh at the sign.
:[
Although… strictly speaking, isn’t it impossible to poke a non-gender pie?
…
Quit laughing. I’m serious. :[
*stifles laughter*
*coughs*
Laughter is not allowed. :[
I’m going to have to ask you to leave, ma’am.
But I didn’t laugh… I coughed.
*said with a straight face*
*coughs again*
Ok, then. As long as you didn’t laugh.
:[
Elowell!
*snaps rubber glove*
Okay turn your head and cough one more time.
XXY?
Suppose X is the unknown variable?
No Non genders are ZZ
Asleep? So you can’t ask them to check?
I think that would be offensive
True, why would you drag sleeping people into the toilet with you?
gender is asking if you’re masculine or feminine
sex is asking if you’re male and female
and making statements like that is asking if you are retarded….
Actually, you’re the dimwit… Gender is a social construct, sex a biological fact. Way to be ignorant.
Only if you’re an ignorant feminist.
Scientifically, and dictionary-wise, gender and sex are synonyms.
Two words. Same meaning.
WOW. reccy, you stupid dated bully. gender, you know-it-all, is no social construct! it’s how you’re born! LOOK IT UP.
Well… uhm no. Gender and sex are not the same. They are almost the same… Almost! Sex is what you have between your legs, gender is what it is in your head. A dude can have a female gender. These peeps mostly end up transsexual and stuff.
I’m sure that’s what the sign was referring to-whether the child FEELS masculine or feminine 9.9 god the people who feel the need to post these days
Sex = what you have between your legs
Gender = what you have between your legs
Gender IDENTITY = what you have in your head
Anyone who uses “gender” to refer to gender identity is either incorrectly using it as a euphemism, or trying to hide the fact that they’re an ignorant jackass. The latter is more common, though that may just be my misanthropy speaking.
That’s what you get for being correct on the internet.
uh. gender didn’t ask me that. She was wondering where sex went. Sex didn’t ask anything though, he just wanted more.
oh, what am I then?
Pretty as a picture?
Moomin says you’re asleep.

WAKE UP, ABSTRACT!

Refresh fail! And I like that answer better!^^
lol *squeeze* no, sorry, i’m going back to sleep…zzzzzzzzzz
XXY-not?
ask not what your gender can do for you,
but why the non-gendered cannot do number one or two
To stand or to sit, that is the dilemma.
We’re not thinking about this issue open-mindedly enough.
Perhaps they can switch their body parts depending on what they need to do. Perhaps we misunderstand the implied meaning of “changing room.”
Ahhh! So assign the gender in the changing room, prior to bathroom selection. Those lazy non-genders need to do it at home first.
with a turn dial?
Unless the ladies room line is too long. I’d do it then too…
Hermes and Aphrodite can take their child into either bathroom.
Y not XX?

Also, it has been proven that its not the 24th chromosome that states if one is a boy or a girl. There even are girls with XY.
http://intersexnews.blogspot.com/2009/04/cbx2-age-of-chromosomes-is-over.html
So dump those biology books and do some real research!
Yes, ONE scientist OUT OF THE ENTIRE WORLD COMMUNITY thinks the Y chromosome doesn’t determine maleness — IT HAS TO BE TRUE!!! A SCIENTIST SAID IT!! And news source like “Intersex News”, who employs such neutral epithets as “Chromosexuals”, CAN’T POSSIBLY BE BIASED!1!
Word of advice: don’t believe shit you unquestioningly read off the Internet. Also, lrn2science.
Y not XXX?
‘Cause you need a still to brew it, not a rest room!
… and Vin Diesel has nothing to do with this.
Ahh, good point.
*disassembles still in bathroom moves to back yard*
YYZ?
WIN! FOR GUITAR HERO! =D
ZZ Top?
Up your Ying Yang.
Actually, XXY will create a male, so they’re not gender-less.
what they meant was “Gonadal Dysgenesis”, like Turner syndrome or Klinerfelter syndrome; sex chromosome disorders
No… fool. There are only 2 strings in the 24th chromosome… XXY would be a mutation. :3
Yes, but it will be a male mutant. XXX would be a female mutant.
FFFFFF loved this movie. Now I feel sad. Intersexuals are serious, this fail was probably made by an idiot who has no idea that there are hermaphrodites around.

What about Non-Gender parents?
I would say more… what about Non-German grandparents?
this is non-germane
You mean Nein-German, I think.
You mean die unspezifische Geschlechtsspezifische, to be specific.
Now that’s being too specific.

Aha I see, that is the point, no confused kids!

non-gender children hold balloons
That’s how you can spot them from afar.
So they can float to that non-gender bathroom in the sky?
“They all float down here.”
‘It’ reference FTW.
Stop clowning around, Shadow’s being serious.
This fail fails. Yes the sign is funny and worded awkwardly. But all it really means is, if you’re a woman and have to change your son’s diaper, you can’t take the boy into the womans restroom to do it. “Non-gender” means “wrong/opposite gender” as it’s used here. Let the flames begin.
*toasts marshmallow on flames*
Oh god no! What have I done?

You’ve under-toasted it, that’s what you’ve done. Give it another minute and a half. I’ll set up the table with the graham crackers and the Hershey’s bars.
Yeaa…I love Smurfs, especially when cooked just right!
Careful. You better watch your language, or we might have chestnuts roasting on an open fire.

Speaking of eating nuts. Judy did you ever give my ♂ back? I kinda miss it. Being non-gendered makes it hard to use public restrooms.
We don’t nom fail friends, We don’t nom fail friends, We don’t nom fail friends, We don’t nom fail friends, We don’t nom fail friends, We don’t nom fail friends, We don’t nom fail friends, We don’t nom fail friends
Did you just toast yourself or one of your rellies?
I don’t know anymore
Waaah.
Ogle Ogley’s reply for why “all this really means” is this a fail. v
The sign isn’t worded awkwardly, it’s a diabolical mangling of the English language.
oh, I had no idea, I was trying to figure out why it was worded that way. So it just means, don’t take little boys in the women’s room and don’ take little girls in the boy’s room? I understand now, but why is that a big deal, and where is this?
My question is, what about children out of diapers, but too young to not be supervised? Would you send a three year old into a big public restroom by themselves?
I try not to let my three-year-old wander into a big public restroom by himself, but there have been a few times that he bolted for the men’s room and I just have to wait outside…not fun.
Eeep! Not fun indeed! I bet he just loooooves the conversation that follows these bathroom breaks!
it clearly says they will arrange a changing room if that’s the case.
why is this so hard for you people to understand?
‘You people’? What do you mean, ‘you people’?
It’s not hard to UNDERSTAND, christine, despite the convoluted, mangled English. It’s hard to fathom why it’s necessary in the first place. What’s so repugnant about bringing a 3-year-old boy into a woman’s bathroom?
That is an appalling misuse of the English language. Why on earth can they not say “children of the opposite sex”? (until a child has opted for a sex change, sex = gender.)
because non-mexican had a bad ring to it
Right on. People should be required to get a language license before they’re allowed to write anything for public consumption. I’m serious: It’s like having safety training before you can drive or own a handgun.
Japan hates you, J.
why would you want to drive a handgun?
Because, apparently, “sex” is an eeeeevil word.
Opposite gender then, gender isn’t the problematic word in the sentence.
gender-phobic children
This is so wrong. My YXXY child has a disability and they are discriminating against…it. Lets go to DC!!! Million Genderless March!
They already live in the capitol
G*d wouldn’t make non-gender children.
Therefore Satan made them and a bathroom is ideal for drowning them.
“See the on-duty manager to arrange for a non-sex changing area.”
first we take the penis and invert it into the body….
The “body?” Are we onto necrophilia then?
hahahaha! 10000 points!
Can the Manager help assign a gender so my kid can use the bathroom.
So then is there a changing area for people who want sex?
that’s racicism!

That is funny and very disturbing at the same time.
Is this an anti-Baileys campaign? yucko
drinking Baileys ca give you a severe case of the mangina
hmmm what if you are a girl drinking Baileys?
Then you get a severe case of maninya.
wah! not available in my country
….Kind of like ‘freedom’.
i actually get it. it means don’t bring children into the bathroom that aren’t the same gender. like don’t bring a little boy into the womens bathroom or don’t bring a little girl into the mens bathroom, etc.
Much better that they should soil onto the floor, I agree.
that’s why its called a on-doody manager
*squeeze!*
Clean up on Aisle 3! (that’s for you, Moomin)

non-gender kids make such a mess in toilet
Bring a plunger next time; I have a collapsible travel model.
plungers excite me, am I an innie or an outie?
You men are lucky – you’re both. So versatile, like a reversible jacket.
I prefer the term “double adapter” or “the meat in the sandwich”
*pukes*
That’s the last time I sodomize you on a full stomach, young man. Now I have two messes to clean.
I should have never had that second cup
This sign does not engender trust of the management system at all!
the manager made the sign???
The management said I could put the sign.
You no romove it or I tell on you.
who you gonna call?

I always thought my Ken doll was non-gender.
*snork*
Ken’s lack of ability to remove bodily waste should not prevent him from using the bathroom. Fight for his non-gender @ss!
What about pregnant women who don’t know their future children’s gender? Can they enter the bathrooms?
That only applies up to the 4th month. Once she knows, she uses the proper bathroom. I used the men’s room with no problem for the sake of my son.
Non-gender children cannot pee themselves
Kinda related my toddler son was watching me change my baby girl’s daughter and he kept asking me “Poop only, poop only?”
I finally figured out that he thinks she can’t pee cause she don’t have a hose.
*snork!*
Child logic at it’s finest.
LMAO. The boys tend to get confused. What do girls say when they notice the difference?
Hey look he has a vacuum cleaner attachment!
Well, in my experience, they tend to say, “Lucky bastard, doesn’t have to pee sitting down, grumble
“
Hey Shadow, what is the tag for the font reduction? I cannot for the life of me get < font size = to work. Tks

Wait, let me make sure I understand. I already know I can raise my IQ be eating gifted children. But if I eat non-gender children, will it hurt my sex life?
^by^ *bukkit*
*takes bukkit awae*
Get ahold of eourself, man, it was an honest mistake.
only if you have sex with them
They steal your gender or their own use.
All your genders are belong to us.
non-gender children = viagra’s nemesis
wtf
*dons a monocle, fancy suit, and British accent*
A genuinely profound statement, my good sir, truly inspiring. You have a gift for this sort of thing, you know.
Quite right, my good man. Quite right.
Pip pip cheerio and all that other rot. Pop down to the pub for a pint then? Tally ho!
Or perhaps you would like to stay in and have a good cuppa? Earl Grey? Shall I pour? Righto then …
No hermaphrodites allowed?
No, they’re allowed. They have both, not none!
Oh, so it’s just the asexuals that are being discriminated against.
Namekians? xD
There is the slightest chance that they do really mean that if your child has not decided on a gender yet they can’t use any bathrooms. But we do have former Miss California to tell us that the correct way to phrase it would be your “opposite sex” child.
What is this arrangement deal? Do they lend out “genders” or does some creepy person take your child into the same sex bathroom? If there is a non-gendered changing area then why the hell doesn’t everyone just use it in the first place?
One day in Sunday school, the teacher was talking about Jesus is to the kids, “Bobby, where is Jesus?” asked the teacher. “Jesus is in heaven.” replied Bobby. “Very good!”, said the teacher. The teacher then asked a little girl,” Where is Jesus, Emily?”. Emily said innocently, “Jesus is in my heart!”. The teacher beamed at little Emily and said, “How very sweet!!!”. The teacher now asked Timmy, “Timmy, where is Jesus?”. “Jesus is in my bathroom.” he said assuredly. “Please elaborate, Timmy.”, the teacher said. Timmy then replied, “Well, every morning my dad gets up, bangs on the bathroom door and yells. Jesus Christ, are you still in there!!!”
*snorkroffle*
*squeeze*
are there really enough non gender children to need a spot in the budget to create signs like this?
Its a growing population.
The high mercury content in freshwater fish is to blame.
Wow, the comments section here has done a pretty good job at revealing the transphobics commenters here on failblog.
Yes, we’re all acting like real dicktwats.
Ah yes, I forgot the hermaphobics. Don’t want to exclude them either.
YAY TRANSPHOBIA?
:/
No. I hope that answers your question.
dont make fun of non-gender children……:( i know several of them………………….lolololololol hackz jk
Remember this next time you decide to remove your children’s genitals… you may run into problems when bringing your child to a public restroom.
Lol, I’m pretty sure this is just an awkward way of saying don’t bring children of the opposite sex into the bathroom, aka, male children into the women’s restroom. Not doing a good job of saying it though…
I just spit out my water.
I know what the sign is supposed to mean. It’s for a female bringing her son into the woman’s bathroom or vice versa. It’s very poorly worded though
wait, wut? you mean you haven’t seen a non-gender child?
Now that’s just weird…. isn’t it weird? xD
Gender is for a big part a social construct. “Non-gender children” are children whose parents are of the view that childrens gender should be ignored, so that they don’t get treated differently.
This may or may not be crazy, but we won’t know that until they have grown up. So…. let’s replay this fail in 20 years.
I am fairly certain that it is referring to something like if you are a male and have a female child or vice versa. It’s pervert prevention. They probably have a family bathroom that you can use.
Are there really enough people out there who insist on raising their kids gender-neutral to merit a sign? While I agree with the sentiment that gender is socially constructed and can be a hindrance, isn’t it an even bigger hindrance for a growing child to have to navigate a mostly gender-binary world?
It’s like a complete reversal of the usual genderqueer narrative. “I’m a GIRL, damn it!” “No, honey, you’re a fluid androgyne.”
Tha really sad thing is….this statement is becoming more and more relevant in the USA!!
Why is it sad that people don’t force children into gender roles? It is far less traumatizing to the child to let them be themselves right off the bat, as opposed to having to wait until adulthood to come to terms with having gender identity disorder.
end woman’s suffrage!!
where u supposed to take them then
Are they talking about transvestites?
you’re all stupid.
they just mean do not bring a child of a different gender into a bathroom.
for example. You’re a dad, they dont want you to bring your daughter into a male change room.
This isn’t funny, nor weird.
Surely it is very weird that you can’t bring your opposite-gender child into the bathroom with you?
I can’t see who it’s harming.
I used to get changed in the ladies’ changing room with my little brother when we went with our mum, and in the men’s when we went with my dad.
That’s too stupid…
That sign is just a disgrace! Oh dear.
*fails to resist her pedantic side*
This sign could be a translated restroom sign in Thailand… maybe. They have non-gendered washrooms for kids in some places there. Just sayin’.
While this the meaning of this sign (as stated several times before) is most likely that you cannot bring kids into a changing room of the opposite sex, it is worded awkwardly, and thus is the point of the fail. However- non-gender kids do exist. Non-gender children are chimaeras.
Do you build them in your basement or something? You should make me a manticore. My other manticore is lonely.
What is a non-gender child?
they are trying to say that if you are a mom and in the women’s restroom don’t bring your little boy in there…maybe it is offensive to some people or something…stupid to me but whatever…there aren’t signs like that around here.
Does this mean gender or sex? Cos sex is between your legs and gender is between your ears.
Either way, since I can’t piss in the toilets, me and my 92XX/XY self are gonna go piss on the manager’s desk…
that counts me out then :S
Total fail. Why should parents of intersex children have to announce that to anyone?
if you mean me, i was being sarcastic
and plus, if i had a kid, i would be embarrased, i’m not even 16 yet lol
So, I just made an account because you people make the funniest comments on this site and i always come here to laugh and waste time at work..so i figured i would sign up, and maybe someday I will be as funny as all of you
no chance mate, it takes a dang long time to become a failontologist, u first need a degree in failanthropy and then comes the sexual favours OMFG!!1
What does this even mean? Seriously. WTF?
I think that it means women aren’t allowed to bring their little boys in the women’s restroom and men aren’t allowed to bring their little girls in men’s room.
not a fail the fail is the person reading it non-gender would be the matching of gender like a guy bringing his daughter to the store and she needs to go to the bathroom where do you take her? cannot take a girl tothe guys bathroom ….. people are retarded FAIL
Most of the time it’s obvious what a FAIL is supposed to mean or trying to say, the FAIL comes mostly from the way that it’s worded that makes it sound retarded or mean something silly/impossible/improbable.
For the record, this sign was found on the door of the ladies’ rest room at a pool club in New Jersey..
HOW is this a fail?! this is simple!
it means do not take a child that isnt your gender into the bathroom with you, simple enough, i understood it!
failblog fail.
There’s a lot of non-gender children in adverts recently. What’s up with that
The sign may as well read “PLEASE…DO NOT BRING NON-WHITE CHILDREN INTO BATHROOMS. SEE THE ON DUTY MANAGER TO ARRANGE FOR A CHANGING AREA FOR PARENTS WITH NON-WHITE CHILDREN.”
so, i have to find the manager before i go change my little boy’s shitty diaper? and what “arrangement” will be made? gonna clear a space in the stock room? and when I have to pee? are you going to hold my baby? don’t f-ing think so, you people can get over yourselves. Also, it says a “changing area” will be arranged. what about a toilet? how often must this manager be running around making “arrangements”?
first, you have to acknowledge that sex and gender are two different things. i know lots of people whose biological sex is not the same as the gendered label they choose for themselves.
furthermore, some societies accept more than two genders. this is not some kind of backward thinking that only exists in remote locations. in fact, i would argue that moving away from our dangerous dichotomy between the genders is quite progressive.
try to look at gender as a continuum rather than as polar opposites.
it would look like this:
man—————————————————-woman
and everyone falls somewhere in between.
Nope.
“Sex” = male/female/both/neither
“Gender” = euphemism for sex
“Gender IDENTITY” = chosen label
And I’m well aware that some societies accept third genders — apparently, they do something like that in India or something… How the f-ck does that work? On what criteria are they classified? The problem with using gender identity as a classification system for official things (like bathrooms) is that since a person chooses their own gender identity (usually), there is no definite rules that can be used to determine a person’s gender identity. We can’t have “People Who Choose To Be Called ‘Female’” restrooms, for example, cause then a pervy dude could just walk in and say he chooses to be a lesbian with a dick.
*my previous comment is not about the sign itself but about the above conversation regarding the sign
Neutrois kids need to pee as well!
does Castor Semenya sit down to pee? naaa she aims that sucka from 6 yards out!!! balancing on an elbow, upside down, singing ‘Here comes the sun’ by the Beatles…while winning gold medals.
This is for the Dads who go to the rest room and have a daughter and vise versa.. It just means do not bring your little girl in the mens room or your little boy in the girls room…
That’s a really, really stupid way to say that women shouldn’t bring their little boys into the women’s room with them.
That’s also totally stupid. There’s nothing wrong with kids going to the wrong bathroom with their parent until they’re old enough to go into the right bathroom by themselves.
I don’t think this is funny at all. From what I can tell it is talking about children who don’t have a specific gender, like intersex children.
WHAT THE FCUK????? What the hell is this world coming to? No wonder society is so screwed up!!
the world is coming to a place with no swearing
lickeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer meee
that is freakin greatttt.. haha
Yay non-sexism!!!!!
Translation: Please… do not bring alien children into bathrooms
Oh yeah that’s totally normal………In Canada
