It gets even murkier than that. Nowadays you can choose your gender, sexual orientation and even a relationship type preference. Young people are particularly affected. Children aren't experienced enough to choose their genders. They haven't lived enough. But we'll certainly all allow them to make whatever personal decisions they like. It's the politically correct thing to do you see.
Imagine the cat managed to inform us it now identifies as a squid. I'd be puzzled myself, though because of moral imperative, we'd have to seem supportive, if only to avoid seeming like offensive assholes. This is why Rome burned.
Precisely. I'm glad you understand the title of the meme. Remarkably, there are a lot of people who want the cat to be allowed to decide it's gender regardless of biological fact. Feelings seem to be more important than truth these days
