Tucker Carlson: What is a woman?

[F1fan]

So? She was still born with breasts I assume?

Do you think all humans are born with perfect biological properties and functions? Do you acknowledge that there are deviations in the biological norms that affect some people? If so, do you think these people have a right to be in a category that they feel most comfortable? If not, why not?

As are my parody posts.

Aha, good tk know

Tucker Carlson is a great comedian, isn't he?

Whenever I watch the guy talk I can never stop laughing.

That's a great thing...laughing, very healthy

The painful "funny" part was that a woman was too confused to describe what a woman is, and needed help of some scientist

False. The confusion was the attempt by a republican to ask a loaded question that was really a trap. It makes the republican look foolish in two ways, 1. that he thought the trick would work, and 2. that he had such disrespect for the nominee that he believed she would fall into this trap. He's the one who ended up trapping himself. It was a vague question and we all could see what he was trying to do. Not very smart. But it surely has given many conservatives some red meat to feast on.

No, it isn't. You know it's funny when you castrate a bull he doesn't become a heifer. We need to quit playing to make believe, and just call people by what they are.

Did you know what's also funny, is I'm pretty sure fixed male dogs produce more oestrogen and smell like females to other dogs.

All of our life is "make believe" (see my fiction OP if you'd like), get with the program.

My Master said "God is Male, all humans are female"

But I rather stick to the obvious, along the lines @Wildswanderer explained.

God IS.

Whatever you feel.

Objectively it is no more or less moral than harvesting cows, pigs, chickens, etc. for food.

What is your epistemological basis for believing that harvesting a dog for food is no more or less moral than harvesting a pig for food?

I am a Hindu who believes that killing cows for food is actually murder. My source for this is the Scriptures of my religion, which ultimately come from Brahman. Although I cannot prove that these are objective truths like mathematical truths due to the nature of them, I am content with knowing they are categorized as subjective truths.

I admit that I am offended by cats and dogs being used as food, and that is due to my experiences with cats and dogs as pets.

In my case, I dislike the idea of dogs and cats as food because they are creatures who feel pain, and there is no actual need for a human being to kill them for food.

There are people who form emotional attachment to their dairy cows

I rejoice in knowing that!

Would you think twice about killing those dogs if they attacked your children? Would you feel bad about leaving the carcasses out to be scavenged?

I probably would not think twice even if a rabid poodle were to attack my children. Dharmically, it would be my duty to protect my children. If I would have to kill the dog in order to stop it, so be it.

So do you follow what I'm saying here about the cultural values that we inherit and haven't personally thought through for ourselves? This relates to the prejudice and bias that it taught and learned by many cultures in the West. There is a lot of prejudice against gays and trans people among conservatives in the USA, and it is a cultural dispute. That arguments conservatives make against trans and gay people are cultural threats and bogus threats against children, as if the left is trying to teach the children of America to be gay.

I understand your point.

If you don't mind me asking, what do you get out of seeing issues as culturally relative matters, if that is indeed how you see them?

Context would be nice.

It's a discussion about a woman cheating on a man. The audio is in the link if you scroll to the section quoted below.

TUCKER CARLSON: By the way, women hate you when they do you wrong and you put up with it.

CO-HOST: Exactly.

CARLSON: Because they hate weakness. They're like dogs that way. They can smell it on you, and they have contempt for it; they’ll bite you.

...

CARLSON: I mean, I love women, but they're extremely primitive, they're basic, they're not that hard to understand. And one of the things they hate more than anything is weakness in a man. [Bubba the Love Sponge

In unearthed audio, Tucker Carlson makes numerous misogynistic and perverted comments

Sounds like common sense.

 

[Guitar's Cry]

Sounds like common sense.

How so?

 

[Yazata]

I like Tucker Carlson here.

I like Tucker Carlson too. I won't write him a blank check, but I do find myself agreeing with him most of the time.

As for me, I use biological sex (yes, such a thing does exist) to distinguish between men and women. A biological male is a man, a biological female is a woman. Simple as that.

It has nothing to do with "gender" (whatever that is) or how somebody feels on a particular day.

 

[Wildswanderer]

How so?

He's probably right that most women react that way to weakness in men.

 

[Yazata]

Just because some guy cuts his testicles off and says he's a woman doesn't make him one.

He's simply a self-mutilated man.

I suppose that he has a right to do it to himself if he wants to, but I feel no obligation to pretend that he's something that he's not.

What upsets me is that adults are doing these things to children. Prescribing them "puberty blockers" or whatever it is. That's irreversable and will render the person sterile for life.

In my opinion that's the worst kind of child abuse and medical malpractice.

 

[9-10ths_Penguin]

I like Tucker Carlson here. Americans are getting brainwashed (by Big Tech like Twitter etc) and are not even aware of it. At least Tucker sees right through it. And is brave enough to put it in the open

He might be spot on at around 10:00, explaining why American government brainwashes the Americans into man=woman and other non-sense in recent years

A woman in a high position could not even answer the question "What is a woman?". Oh my God.

Tucker Carlson: What is a woman?

You think Tucker "M&Ms aren't sexy enough any more" Carlson is a reasonable person to look to on issues of gender?

[Guitar's Cry]

He's probably right that most women react that way to weakness in men.

I would suggest some humans react that way to weakness in humans. Characterizing women as primitive and basic because of this is dismissive of women as complex individuals; it is a caricature of a woman based on misogynistic stereotypes from men whose egos need justification for their deepseated fears of being "weak."

And (while I've been unable to watch the video of Tucker) this simplistic caricature may be the model from which Tucker is still drawing from for his definition. It isn't that far removed from @F1fan's parody in post #9.

Scientists separate sex and gender, too.
It is not, in fact, accurate to say 'cool only refers to temperature' when temperature is only one part of a definition of 'cool.'

She wasn't confused. She acknowledged the very real consideration of 'woman' as more than just physiology. Whether or not conservatives participate in that discussion is of no consequence to me. They don't participate in a lot of things against their beliefs.

Have a source for this? Here's what I found:

"The effects of puberty blockers are physically reversible.

Puberty blockers only pause the production of testosterone and estrogen hormones. Once a person stops using this medication, their body begins production once more, leading to the development of breasts and facial hair."

I'm glad that Carlson never became a journalist, he provides so much more value with his political comedy.

If Tucker Carlson's lips are moving, then you know he is lying through his teeth.

Lol, you take one sentence and go off the deep end with it.
Women in general are very very different than men. Ask anyone who is married to one.
