And if your son comes to you and says, I identify as a pirate, with peg leg, and eye patch, do you accommodate them by chopping off their leg, and putting out their eye?

Of course not!

And for another view of hypocracy, what about those men putting on "woman-face"?

Much love!
Would you take that same child, imprison him in the basement and physically and mentally abuse him for days or weeks or more until he agree to be what you demand and to never bring it up again?

Substitute in any businesses in you would like then and answer the question.
It has to be something that has a creative element so that expressing it could be equated with speech. Creating a same sex marriage website implies that you approve of same sex marriage

Exactly. Since race is being equated with sexual orientation and gender identity how is it not the same as blackface when a man puts on makeup and pretends to be a woman?
It's tempting to draw parallels between the two types of performance: they both rely on exaggerated stereotypes, they're both one group impersonating another group, and they both come from a long historical tradition that goes back to Shakespeare (and beyond). But that is where the similarities end.
blackface is inherently racist. You can't take the racism out of it. Drag, on the other hand, you can easily separate from misogyny.

Blackface is a lie about a minority group, and intended to ridicule and dehumanize blacks while promoting racism. Blackface is used agasint the person where drag if focused on the stereotypes and cultural expectations. Drag is an expression of yourself, whereas blackface is an attack on someone else; blackface reinforces an imbalance of power, whereas drag disassembles an imbalance of power

I believe God says to be in the world. But not of the world.

We are to love all people. But not participate in their sin. It’s not discrimination when you decide you will not participate in their sin.
I don't love pedophiles. I don't love rapists or terrorists.
If I love family and friends I don't share that respect with pedophiles, rapists nor terrorists.
God doesn't love everyone.
As all those people he killed throughout the OT demonstrate.

And contrary to the opinion in a Romans 2:11, God does show partiality. "God's Elect".
Just one example.

Discrimination
  1. The act of discriminating.
  2. The ability or power to see or make fine distinctions; discernment...

John 7:24
"Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment.”

Galatians 3:27-29

why would them selling me bread violate their religion?
Isn't it enough that they say so? It's their belief, who are you to question the validity or the depth of another persons religion?
The whole LGBTQ+ community, and socialist liberals discriminate me as a white, conservative Christian.
How exactly are you discriminated against. Give us some concrete real world examples of the discrimination you are experiencing.

A female is defined as much more than that. And if a female can not produce ovum or have children it is because they have a medical condition.

A male can not have children or produce ovum because they are males. Not because they have a medical condition.
Medical condition or not the definition fails to include all women.

Lol. So because of this we should allow doctors to castrate young men, and surgically remove the breast tissue of young women?

Dude you are treading on thin ice here
No one ever said anything like this and is not part of the conversation. Brining this in here is just gross dishonesty on your part.

You must not have watched Dylan Mulvany’s videos, If he’s not mocking women he sure fooled me

So I should cater to their disease or false perception of themselves and let them do what they want, no matter what damage it will cause, just because they may be upset and kill themselves?

if your child wanted to jump off a cliff. Would you let them, even if they try to kill themselves if you stop them?

get real man!
Not inflicting violence on a child is catering to a disease?

If LGBTQ young people are more likely to commit suicide maybe it’s not the best choice to make and those risks should be taught when discussing gender identity and sexuality with young people
When did you choose to be a heterosexual?
