  1. Milo Yiannopolous is a good journalist. Luckily he wasn't killed after receiving 10 bomb threats in Miami last weekend.
  2. Men are under-represented basically everywhere. The ratio of female only to male only scholarships doesn't reflect this. Society is sexist. It ignores discrimination against men while blindly continuing with the 'women are oppressed' narrative.
  3. You are so wrong here (unless you have a very narrow definition of transgender). I suggest you go to a website such as asexuality.org and read threads where trans people discuss their identities. But please tell me more about how you know so much about trans people.
  4. Speaking of scholarships, women make up 60% of university students and have a higher graduation rate... But I guess we need all these female only scholarships because women are 'oppressed' or something.
  5. 49% of British youth are not heterosexual.

      Are you sure Canada_First? Maybe you just have repressed gayness.

      is member Canada_First FFF or MMM?

      MMM probably. We are discussing sexual orientation. Gender-sex is different.

  6. So you are for 1 or 0 categories? Everyone is considered human?
  7. Because what happens federally and what happens provincially aren't independent. One of the reasons we are in an economic contraction is due to the insane energy policies of the Ontario government. The idea that we should pretend that the decisions made by a province that contains a third of the country's population have no impact federally is ridiculous. The Ontario government is in massive debt, has insane energy prices and is in massive debt. It's on the path towards default. But if you want to talk about other provincial governments, I can point out their flaws too: BC - opposes HST, opposes nuclear energy, has made it difficult to get pipelines built. Alberta - current government has basically scared all investment out of Alberta. Quebec - a money pit that has insane anti-business laws. It should get rid of its language police.
  8. The great thing about online anonymity is that it allows people to discuss topics that would otherwise be socially taboo.

  9. Waste of money. Ontario is going bankrupt.
  10. Yet governments around the world allow people to change the gender of their birth certificate. If you were born in Ontario, you just need a letter from a psychologist claiming that you have gender disphoria.
  11. But phenotypical sex and genetic sex are different types of biological sex.
  12. I'll give another example. This trigendered pyrofox would be MMX:
  13. They don't. The reason you think this is because you are used to associating in your brain certain traits with caucasian. Most Japanese people think Japanese anime characters look primarily Japanese. It's all about perception. No idea. It's a stupid cliche. I guess it sells in Japan. Not always. But I guess it sells. A better question might be how it makes sense to have giant flying humanoid war machines since they aren't very very aerodynamic. I just ignore that.
  14. @ msj - Okay, I admit I was wrong. Thank you for correcting me.
  15. No idea. I'm not an accountant. This whole nonsense would be a lot simpler if we just had a flat tax. They live together now, but let's say they separate and stop living together. Why should they pay more in tax than a separated married couple? Edit: also, common law marriage is a whole other bag of worms because if two people choose not to get married, why should the state force them to be 'married'. It goes against consent.
  16. So as a greater percentage of the population identifies as non-cisgender and goes through gender/sex reassignment surgery, the question of if only having 2 legal genders/sexes is sufficient. Some countries such as Germany, Australia and New Zealand have a third legal sex, X for indeterminant. The arguably better represents intersex people and non-gender binary people. However, there are some issues with both Canada's traditional system and the system in Australia. For example, the healthcare needs of transmen may be different from the healthcare needs of men, yet if both groups are legally classified as M then this may result in worse healthcare quality for transpeople. Ultimately, I think that the main problem is that usage of the words gender and sex is often interchangeable and as a result things become unnecessarily confusing since sometimes gender and sex mean the same thing and other times they do not. The distinction between Genetic sex, phenotypical sex and gender identity are rarely made. Whether or not you agree with transpeople, surely everyone would benefit from having more clearly defined categories. I suggest that Canada and other countries adopt the following gender-sex classification system: - People are categorized based upon 3 traits: genetic sex, phenotypical sex and gender identity. - There are 3 legal options for genetic sex: female (F), male (M) and intersex (X). - Genetic sex is based on your DNA. Most people with two X chromosomes will be F, most people with an X and a Y will be M. In some rare cases such as Kleinfelter's syndrome, people will be classified as intersex. - There are 3 legal options for phenotypical sex: female (F), male (M) and other (X). - Individuals that externally appear female will be F, individuals that externally appear male will be M, and individuals that are ambiguous will be X. People can change their phenotypical sex, but only after surgery or medical intervention such as a vaginoplasty. - There are 3 legal options for gender identity: female (F), male (M) and other (X). - Gender identity will depend on what the individual identifies as and an individual can change their legal gender identity simply by filling out a form and submitting it to the government. Government issued documents will indicate someone's gender-sex classification with 3 letters corresponding to the person's genetic sex, phenotypical sex and gender identity. Here are some examples: - A person who is genetically female, phenotypically appears to be female and identifies as a female gendered person will be FFF. - A post-op transwoman who identifies as a female gendered person will be MFF. - A pre-op transman who identifies as a male gendered person will be FFM. - An intersex person who phenotypically appears to be female and identifies as a male gendered person will be XFM. - A genetic male who phenotypically appears to be male and identifies as agender will be MMX. - A genetic female who has undergone androgynous surgery and identifies as gender-fluid will be FXX. Thoughts?
  17. No, but due to tax and insurance benefits, there are strong financial incentives to get married. I have an older cousin who lives together with his partner and has two kids. Yet they are not married and don't want to be. Why should my cousin and his partner pay more in taxes than an equivalent married couple because they choose not to get married?
  18. Why would I be? Personally, I don't think that the government should define what is or isn't marriage and shouldn't give people special benefits based upon marital status. People should be treated as individuals and be equal under the law. I also find the idea that your spouse somehow has a monopoly on who you can have sex with bizarre.
  19. If anyone enjoys mech anime, in addition to Aldnoah Zero as I mentioned earlier, I recommend the following mech anime which came out recently: - Cross Ange: This one is very different. I'm not sure how accurate 'feminist mech anime' is. It's almost game-of-thrones-esque in terms of how much psychological abuse some of the characters receive. - Sidonia no Kishi - Valvrave the Liberator
  20. What the west should have done was not intervene at all in Syria. Then we wouldn't waste money funding Islamists. In the worst case, ISIS would spill over into Saudi Arabia and Turkey, in which case Saudi Arabia and Turkey would deal with them. Sunni majority countries could more easily deal with ISIS because then ISIS can't invoke the Quran to proclaim that it's every Muslim's duty to come to their aid and get more recruits. Let the Saudi Islamists and the ISIS Islamists kill each other, then there would be less Islamists to fight us and kick gay people off buildings. Instead we fight a proxy war for the Saudi's, while the Saudis use their oil money to fund Wahabbism and spread the ideology that is the main cause of ISIS, Boko Haram and other groups. The Saudi's are richer than us and have the 4th most powerful military. Let them deal with their own mess.
  21. Ashley Madison has been doing immense social good by weakening gender roles and the institution of marriage. It is a shame that this had to happen.
  22. If only I had my adolescent mind. Instead my mind is damaged from a brain injury.
  23. I hope they find whoever released all this information, and throw them in jail for 10+ years. Releasing all this private information of millions of law abiding citizens is terrible.
  24. Posters like TimG think that those who reject gender roles are mentally ill. If anyone is mentally ill, it is those that think gender roles make any sense in modern society.

      Member TimG's view of the world was frozen in carbonite sometime in the 50's or 60's. He seems to reject change or progress in most areas.
