redleg2/9I Self-Identified today and it felt great!
First, let me explain that I am Dyslectic and combined with being an Old Fart, I view numbers in my own personal way. I also have an appointment this week for knee replacement surgery.
During breakfast today, I told my wife that I was just wasting away because our refrigerator stock is somewhat depleted.
Wife: “OK, what are you at now?”
Me: “175 from 182”
Wife: laughs - “You mean 275, you always do this.” - laughs more
Me: as light bulb comes on above head – “Well, I Self-Identify as 175.”
Damn, if feels good to be 175 pounds again.

Elk HunterIs it OK if I self identify as on my 17th birthday? So I can not enlist in the army a week later?

MNSIGActually, each of your "identities" is far more legitimate than the gender BS.
Red: You actually were 175 at one point in your life and could be again.
Elk: You actually have experienced being a 17yo young man ready to enlist.
This gender crap is pure bullshit. Until they find a way to alter every strand of DNA in the body, nothing changes. Plastic surgery, dress up games, whatever.
