Gender stereotypes are often flawed historically, evolving into opposing definitions
A recommendation from Poch is never something I'd pass up on, so I'll definitely check it out.

The only damn thing men are better at than women is having a penis and Y chromosome and identity-wise even that is in question.
Also vice-versa vis-a-vis vaginas. That may be the first time in my life I started that many consecutive words with 'v'.

Honestly, I think we should avoid definitions of gender that rely on possessing certain genitalia.

That's not to say don't mention them, just don't get too hurt by it.
Ah, people make mistakes sometimes when they get glib. Especially old folks who aren't used to the idea of transexuality being a thing--as that, while gender dysphoria was, it was kinda like being gay in the 20s, no one talked about it, until a couple years ago.
I'm sure Shiney didn't mean anything by it and is likely sorry. Don't take his missteps to heart.

I won't take it to heart. Probably could have responded better too, for which I apologize.

I'm just going to name drop here. Since some people seem exempt from burden of proof here due to, "I don't feel like it because you won't read it anyway and you'll just "move the goalposts".
-Karen Straughan (GirlWritesWhat on YT.) -Erin Pizzey (Woman who started women's shelters. When she wanted to make a men's shelter, she got threats to her family, her dog was killed and she was kicked out of her organization by feminists.) -(Not a name but: ) Honey Badger Brigade: Here's just one of their well written articles aside from their podcasts which you should definitely listen to. They post their Podcasts under the name of HoneyBadgerRadio on YouTube. Youtube names: - Sargon of Akkad - Doctor Randomercam - Internet Aristocrat Go ahead and look 'em up folks. I'll be delighted to hear whatever your responses might be... and yes, one the latest Nerdcasts from HBR featured talking about GG with Sargon and Doctor Randomercam. |

Is Sargon the guy who talked with Pixie and then shouted her down because he decided it wasn't a debate and she was outdebating him or is Sargon the guy who talked with Liana K and drove her to tears because he and his pals didn't like her criticizing Nero.
Like, that's not just me trying to be a prick I literally forget which he is, but I think??? he's the first one? EDIT: Double-checked and yeah Sargon was the guy who shouted PixieJenni down and the dude who was shitty to Liana K in a stream was KingofPol I think EDIT2: The funniest part was how Liana K ending up in tears was proof that she was too emotional but Sargon shouting a woman down apparently wasn't proof he was too emotional. Strange that.

I did a lot of posting on here as a teenager, and I was pretty awful.

On the off chance that someone is taking a trip down memory lane looking through those old threads, I wanted to devote my signature to say directly to you, I'm sorry. Thank you for letting me be better, NPF. |
