Dude. Homophobic propoganda has literally been saying that for generations at this point.
Bet they said the same thing when interracial couples were becoming a thing too (about mixing races.)
True.
I’m very ashamed that I once bought into instead the strawman argument against that.
I guess I can blame my poor understanding of how (in America in particular) social science is discussed on a large scale, as it were.
Also I was in a very bad headspace at the time. Still in hindsight I...
To be fair. You could argue that’s because the pro choice side has seen what happens when you do compromise. And it’s not always great.
RvW was repealed, was it not?
Give an inch, they take a mile.
Not saying that decision was backed by every pro life person, obviously. But it happened all the...
Yes!
I got a paper cut underneath my nail!! Ow!!!
No but seriously.
I can’t remember the title (damn alcoholic memory) but in Grade 6, which for us is around 10-11 years old, my teacher gave me a book to read. It was about two friends and their trials and tribulations. (One was white and the...
Well, all cultures throughout history had their own ideas about what constitutes masculinity and femininity. They varied and indeed there was some criss crossing happening. So you’re probably right.
Acceptance is a strong word though.
That said, it is interesting that there are some ancient...
As much as I love Monty Python.
Trans-ness is found in all sorts of ancient mythology.
Hell it’s literally part of some of the traditional religious stories I grew up with (Hindu)
You may be right there.
I can only comment on what I’ve witnessed.
I do try my best to give the benefit of the doubt to folks. Because maybe that’s just what they believe.
Admittedly, when it comes to famous folks or those with a following (relatively speaking) that becomes harder to do lol
I...
Oh wow. I knew it was an insult of sorts, didn’t know the full extent.
Don't get me wrong here, I absolutely agree with you that thinking a person votes for Dems or whoever just because they are part of a minority is quite offensive. Or that they have to even.
I think that kind of thinking is...
To be fair, this “sort of thing” has happened in all minority groups going back decades.
What I’m referring to is someone within a minority group apparently slamming another for a perceived slight against the majority. If that makes sense?
I’ve seen trans women say what Miss Jenner has said over...
Whilst I can certainly agree with you. Politeness is a two way street, certainly
I haven’t seen much in the way of folks asking for more than preferred pronouns.
All I can see is people complaining that they have to use a few extra pronouns for people. As if it’s the end of the world and that...
My fellow geeks/nerds!!!
Have you or anyone you know ever been to one of these things?
Any that you would consider going to?
Any that you like? Just because.
I’d go to a Star Wars or Lord of the Rings convention. Honestly
Come on guys!!
Geek out with me
Lol
Are we more advanced than you guys?
I’d certainly be worried if that were the case. Like damn, how far down the well are you guys?
Well, yeah.
I have eyes, don’t you know?
It’s also not a big deal if someone wants you to call them she, he, her, Xi etc.
Like honestly tell me. What skin off your...
A lot of actors, especially very successful ones, are often known by the general public for one specific role. Maybe a couple. They may even be typecast in their career.
But have you ever been “introduced” to an actor known for a specific role or two due to a completely unrelated property?
For...
Ahh they’re not that bad.
Actually most of my fathers family is from Perth.
So maybe since I know them only as drunk family I’m more inclined to be lenient ;)
