bender

A shelter widely used by British hippies travelling in caravans, formed by cutting springy young tree branches or root suckers and bending them into a bowed shape, securing them to the ground at both ends, until a curved space is formed. Covered by a tarp, it serves as a sort of tent.

"We'll make a bender for you for the night." "I don't feel the need for a homosexual bloke nor a short jail term, so I'm hoping you mean a temporary shelter."

Gender Ideology

The ideology which holds, contrary to all existing biological, medical and psychological science, that there are "only two genders", that "sex and gender are synonymous".
This ideology was created by transphobic and transmiscic people who believe that transgender persons are delusional, that transgender persons can be turned into cisgender persons through conversion therapy, that conversion therapy is not quackery unsupported by medical evidence, that conversion therapy is not torture. Many gender ideologues also believe that there is a secret "transgender conspiracy" among greedy physicians and mentally ill teachers acting as "groomers", "grooming" cisgender children with a goal of "transing" them.

Proponents of gender ideology believe, as Dr. John Money did, that it is possible to groom cisgender children into becoming transgender. This is a belief not supported by science.
