What is a female??

[SomeRandom]

Apogize for what? It's not your fault others have too limited narrow a scope for what counts as healthcare and advise, anr this does very much include psychiatry and psychology services as well as primary care physicians and the specialists who deal with physiological ailments.

I mean, okay. I guess?
There was a miscommunication based on my usage of an agreed upon term.
I just feel it impolite not to apologise, honestly

 

[Shadow Wolf]

Then why didn't you mention them along with the Wiccans, Buddhists, and all the other religions you mentioned?

Because I didn't. Boohoo. Get over it.

Does the law allow this? Or are these people acting outside the law. If it is a group of people acting outside the law, how is this different than a gang? If these acts are done inside the law, give an example of a town where this is legally allowed.

The cops often do nothing and are known for sometimes even supporting it.
And you might be surprised to learn all the things you can do that are within the law, like intimidating people.

My response was concerning concerning Christian views; not your views.

Oh, I know. I was commenting on that. The Bible is so deplorable it just can't rightly be considered a book of morality. And what scant few good messages it has they're absolutely nothing new, and stop short of where others went. Like how the Janes go above and beyond all the rest of us when it comes to doing no harm to others.

I didn't mean anything mean by it. But people apologize for too much. The worst I've seen was when I worked at library, read the schedule wrong, and had to suddenly and unexpectedly shoo people away, people who were apologizing to me even though I was the one at fault.
Instead of MAGA I'll make MAAG (Make Apologies Apoligies Again) stuff, with Buddy Christ as George Carlin is the one who installed this bug into me, lol.

Haha, you’re probably right
Years of working in retail has instilled an extra big “be polite” feature in me, I guess lol

I saw an awful lot of hate in media, directed at doctors, teachers, politicians, and some even directed towards autistic kids themselves.

Can you provide a link of this actually happening? I've never heard of a case where an autistic child was blamed for his affliction.

I hate that about customer service. All it achieved was putting images of extreme violence in my head because I can't do anything about it and keep my job.
Getting away from those bungholes made it tons easier to quit smoking, lol.

There is no Boohoo, I was just pointing out how your biases are so obvious

Then you should have no problem listing a town where this has actually happened!

Notice, it says "euthanize him" at the bottom.

Says you in confident built on ignorance.

Elwood, Alexandria, Huntington, Lawrenceburg, Martinsville and many other cities thoughout Indiana, with scores more being brazenly open about their racism.

No; I was kinda hoping you could provide some type of evidence that the police support such activities.

Actually intimidating people can be a civil or criminal offense.

One of only two possible choices for those who can only imagine black and white, yes and no, short and tall, stupid or smart. For such people, none of these things can possibly exist on a spectrum -- there's no gray, no maybe, no "average height," no "moderate intelligence." You get two choice and two choices only -- pick one.

In that case, a female would be the ovum producer. (By the way, your other definitions leaves out female animals. Birds and reptiles don't have periods, menopause, vaginas and such.)

This assumes that what makes a person uniquely themselves (the mind/brain) plays no part in their sexuality -- that it doesn't count in the least.

And yet, as Descartes said, I know I exist because I can think about me existing. So what do we call a person who thinks she is a female but does not produce ova? Does such a person have no right even to their own identity? Are you the identity that other people assign to you, or are you your own person?

Do you have a nose, are you a blonde or brunette, are you bow legged or pigeon toed, Caucasian, Mongolian or Semitic?
What in the world are you talking about when you say '...Are you the identity that other people assign to you, or are you your own person?'?
Since when does societal conventions define a person's gender? It is solely one's anatomy that makes a person male or female. An effeminate male does not make them female, nor does being a tom-boy make them a male. Nor does cross dressing or surgical operations change one's gender - you just become a bastardization of what your biology already dictated.

Your argument is a non-sequitur.

With all the transgender threads on the forum, can we clear up what a female is? What makes someone a female?

To me a female in general is a person that can bear offspring, has ovaries, has periods, experiences menopause, has a vagina, etc etc.

What is a female in your words or by a definition of your choice?

Male and female are defined solely by their anatomy. Outside of very rare exceptions, as in hermaphrodites or other physical aberrations, we categorize one's gender by their biology.
If you are a male but have an effeminate demeanor, then you are a male with effeminate characteristics - you are not a woman.

And yours is blind ignorance -- IMO.

So your entire case is built on a single letter written by a horrible person in another country about their neighbors autistic child? This doesn’t sound like a wide spread problem to me.

That's just one example of many.
