Nowadays, you can do anything that you want; anal, oral, fisting, but you need to be wearing gloves, condoms, protection.
gender is a fluid idea and the false-dichotomy should be destroyed and replaced with something i haven't though of yet but my sociology professor will probably guide me

A personal choice to lay a bedrock of objectivity relating to my personal experience rather than allow an endless fractal expansion of meaningless relativism, a grounding effect which is objective to the self and is acknowledged as a necessary component of social cohesion. You can identify as X, Y, and Z all day long but we need people to stand by the sidelines, roll their eyes and agree that there's a point where you need to guffaw and groan 'Shut up dude.'

The singular genderless they is super old. Shakespeare and Chaucer both used they as a singular genderless pronoun. People started using he for a singular genderless in like the 19th century but even then there were still people using "they."
