IN the NEWS - Psychology Today Magazine gets in on some Gen.6:5

And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. Genesis 6:5

"Who is in your potential dating pool?
That was the question asked in a recent study, and the choices included a variety of gender “identities,” including cisgender
woman, transgender man, and someone who is non-binary. Unsurprisingly, 87.5% of individuals only chose either cisgender man or cisgender woman (translation: man or woman!). And one of the study’s authors, writing for Psychology Today, is upset about these “societal prejudices.”
.....the tone of the article is clearly an attempt to shame people into dating transgender and nonbinary individuals. She even offers a solution to this lack of desire to date transgender individuals, clearly implying there is a problem to be solved.

God’s Word is clear—we’re created male and female (Genesis 1:27), and marriage is to be between one man and one woman for life (Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:4–5). That’s the only true marriage—within a biblical worldview perspective.

And, no matter what our culture says, a transgender woman is not a womanhe is a man, made in God’s image. And a transgender man is not a manshe is a woman, made in God’s image. This article would call that “dehumanizing”—but stating the truth from our Creator is not dehumanizing. God defines who we are (and the science of genetics confirms it)—we do not."
