  • You're right: we should be socialists and have governments like the PRC, North Korea, the ex-USSR, Cuba, Hoxhua's Albania, or the Stalinists in Spain during their civil war. Say what you will about the Khmer Rouge and Sendero Luminoso, but they weren't centrists or moderates.

  • Thanks. 🙂

  • TIL that in 2006, a woman named Edith Macefield turned down a reported offer of $1 million to sell her 108-year-old farmhouse to make way for a commercial development in the Ballard neighborhood

  • If a white man says he's a woman, we should accept that thon is a woman.

    If a white man says he's black, he should be pilloried for mocking people of African descent.

  • I don't have a full definition, however, I think my parameters apply to >98% of women and >98% of those with XX chromosomes.

    IIUC, your definition of a woman is a person who self-identifies as one, and currently at least, most of those who identify themselves as women have XX chromosomes, and for that matter, female genitalia, breasts disproportionately larger than men, and naturally talk at slightly higher pitches.

    I also think that this will be the case for at least a few decades, though what do I know?

    If someone with XY chromosomes and male genitalia wants to call thonself a woman, fine, it's (still) a (relatively) free country, but just don't expect me to always play along—and with that, I expect to be banned for transphobia, because not only do I don't completely agree with the so-called progressives, but that I posted such.

  • I've made no claims of a cure for gender dysphoria, I only question if all of those who are deemed to have it actually have it.

    Why do people have bulimia? Is the basis of it psychological or sociological?

    IIUC, Lebanese women take a disproportionate amount of drugs to relieve stress. Is this some quirk among these women?

    I neither fear nor hate the transgender, and most of their detractors are conservative bigots and/or idiots.

  • A woman is a human female.

    If a person has XX chromosomes, quite probably she is a woman.

    Most people who describe themselves as women have XX chromosomes.

  • No.

    I'm presuming that we have sexism in our society and it's affecting girls at least somewhat, but hey, what do I know?

  • I kinda wished English 2nd-person pronouns made distinctions for plurality. We know they exist with 1st-person pronouns, but alas, the so-called progressives are ruining plurality in 3rd-person pronouns.

    I suppose we could take it up a notch and replace all gender-specific 3rd person pronouns with the singular they.
