CaringCdn Posted November 25, 2024 Report Posted November 25, 2024 I listen to the Five on Fox on the radio. They're funny & very entertaining and think nothing of making jokes about whatever the news is of the day. They also express their opinions & are open about the fact that they are their opinions. I look forward to listening to them every day not only for the news but for their jokes & yes, their opinions. 1 Quote

Your problem is it gives you no wiggle room to try and demand that something that isn't a woman is actually a woman. And you want to do that for propaganda reasons, not for any other reason. Quote Human beings are not cardboard cutouts. There are entire spectrums of biological, emotional, psychological traits in a population. That has nothing to do with the definition of woman. This is extremely easy. That's what a woman is. That doesnt' mean that women don't have other traits as well but that's what a woman is. It's like this: a redhead is a person with red hair. That's the definition. That doesn't change the fact that redheads are not cardboard cutouts they are entire spectrums of biological emotional psychological traits. But the definition is still accurate. Same with 'woman'. Quote To believe that gender is binary is to go against both the biological and medical information we have. To not believe that there is overlap is an ignorant position. And once again I see that you are trying to conflate sex with gender and the two are not synonymous. But lefties with bad arguments try to make them synonymous and then not synonymous at the same time as it suits their argument. "woman" is not a gender. Even 'female' is not a gender, tho we tend to use it a little loosly to address 'feminine' issues which is a gender. However, with regards to gender specifically: The opposite is true. There are two genders, and biologically and medically that is accurate. People tend to be a combination of the two genders, and that may vary for each personality trait. For example someone could be more masculine when it comes to Some elements of their life and more feminine with others. There is what is subjectively considered to be a "window" of "normal" and some people exist on that spectrum outside of 'normal' and there's nothing wrong with that. but there's still just two genders. Lets say i have a bottle of tea, and a bottle of honey. And i mix them together to make a drink. If i put in more honey than tea it'll taste one way, and if i add more tea it'll change the taste quite a bit until it's entirely different. You can make dozens if not hundreds of noticeably different drinks or flavours going from "all honey" to "all tea". BUT at the end of teh day it's still just two ingredients. Tea and honey. Just as there are only two genders. Quote Your reality. Which does mesh with real reality. I won't berate you for the obvious spelling mistake but I will berate you for the stupidity of your statement. There is only one reality. Your choice to delude yourself and Pretend that your false narratives are in fact reality is simply dishonest Quote There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data

Surgical options Gender-affirming care can also involve surgical options. Having surgery is a personal decision, and whether you choose to have some, none or all is entirely up to you. All lower or bottom surgeries are only available for people 18 years of age or older, regardless of gender. This aligns with the World Professional Association for Transgender Health's Standards of care. According to these, a person must be the age of majority to undergo gender reassignment surgery. Quote

I didn't say that "getting puberty blockers = fully transitioned" id10t. I never said that they could get surgery at 8, id10t. The point is that the end result of fully transitioning a child IS sterility, and there's no way that a guidance counsellor gets to even have that discussion about starting down that road with a child without the parents expressed written consent, period. No responsible parent cares how the state or any medical authority on earth officially feels about the use of puberty blockers, and just how "reversible" their effects are: at the end of the day, it is the parents who need to give informed consent or all hell will break loose. And I'll give you an example of just how "reversible" the effects of puberty blockers are... By the age of 13, Shaq was 6'6 and weighed 200 lbs. If he started puberty blockers at 8, do you think that he would have grown to be 6'6 and 200 lbs at 13? Is there even a 1% chance? So how long would these kids be on puberty blockers, and more importantly entrenched in their current mindset, before the parents ever find out? And remember, these guidance counsellors wouldn't just be "helping kids transition", they would almost certainly be misleading them about long-term outcomes, and they would definitely be teaching kids to keep MASSIVE secrets from their parents. Who in the f thinks that they have the right to undermine the parent-child relationship to that extent, in a situation where the parents haven't committed a crime against their child????? It would be one thing for counsellors to talk to kids and then show a video of that entire conversation to the parents that same night. A conversation about that could be started, but not "Let's do this thing, Johnny!". Parents would need to know exactly what kids were told, word-by-word, how well they truly understood the long-term and short-term ramifications of it, and most kids really don't get it. If there's a box of Fruit Loops on the table beside a plate with a couple of eggs and some avocado on toast, almost every 8-yr-old on earth will choose the sugar rush every day if you give them full autonomy. If you want them to eat healthy, then "bowl of stunted growth and obesity" can't be an option. Impressing upon them the long-term benefits of healthy choices is a monumental task, and can't be done with 2 or 3 conversations. Look how many adults choose "alcohol, alcohol, and more alcohol", even when they can tell by looking in the mirror that it's killing them. Ditto for cigs. Ditto for drugs. Ditto for gambling... Health and well-being isn't always the easiest choice. Sometimes it's hard. 8-yr-olds aren't wise and brimming with impulse control. "Long-term risks/rewards" aren't on their radar. Similarly, if you give 8-yr-olds the option of choosing dragon-rider and plumber as a career choice, some will choose dragon-rider. Honest to God, I'm pretty sure that AOC and a lot of other leftists would enroll their kid in that class instead of PE if they could. Reality isn't always the easiest choice. Let's be honest, there are adults who are too stupid to make these kinds of decisions for themselves, like you and myata. Kids at 8 aren't ready.

Your whole belief system and media support system are falling apart. It must suck to finally have had all the Libbie crap exposed. Laid bare for the world to see. No, it's NOT "falling apart." Things like Trump demagoguery have happened in the past. Esp on the right, like when Joe McCarthy gained a TEMPORARY CULT following and exercised the influence of a CULT leader. But soon the fever broke, and the majority came to their senses; many kicking themselves over how they could have been so deluded. I hope you deliver yourself some extra hard kicks, for being such a devoted SUCKER. 1 Quote

It's not simple a matter of - well, if you have breasts, ovaries and a vagina, you are a woman. Because "who you are" is determined by your brain/mind - and transgender women are women in their organ of thought. (Brains are dimorphic, too.) I'm not sure why this is such a difficult concept for some people to understand. Also, I'm not sure why some people are so fixated on a rigid definition and feel threatened if others don't fit into their narrow understanding of the human condition. Conservatives are simple minded by nature and their anti-science understanding demands simple explanations. AKA stuck in the past, before the complexities of the brain/mind development were close to being understood. 1 Quote

Leftists: "8 yr olds are wise and mature enough to unilaterally decide to change their sex and become infertile: they understand the ramifications. Also, 19-yr-old college kids are too stupid to understand how loans work, so they can't be held accountable." Just like Trump was a perpetual child who had to declare bankruptcy 6 times because he didn't know that loans had to be paid bank. LMAO Quote
