Well, tell us what class of people do you associate with the names you chose...? Sounds as if you have some sort of issue |

That's my point also. Are you thankful to some god that you believe exists? Or to fate or random chance? That's a waste of time, neither are real. I'd rather be thankful to the people who came before me, or the president, or the armed forces. Or people who feed the homeless. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

They are the ones who choose to act like freaks. There are TWO GENDERS! You are born one or the other. You cannot change which you are born. That is simple science. Children look at some guy wearing make-up and a dress and ask mommy or daddy what is wrong with that person. It is that obvious. The President is a fink. |

Here's how society works. It tells you what your place in it is, you don't tell society it has to change because you want it different. Be whatever nutjob you want in private, expecting everybody else to accommodate you in public is just plain selfish and self centered. But that's what we have now as a result of no men being in the household. Selfish spoiled adults who are so confused they think they're the center of the universe. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

You might be on to something. In my day if a boy "identified as a girl" his dad would give him a good crack upside the head and be told to stop acting like a fruitcake. Not that most kids would, because the father was there to identify with. These days the man is not there nearly half the time. A good portion of that time the man is not in the picture at all. And another good portion of the time the mother hates men for her own bad choices. So the kid has no man to emulate. The mother at the least subtly saying how awful men are all the time. So the kid is naturally going to try to please his mother. You might indeed have hit the nail on the head. The President is a fink. |

BTW, even if want to go with abnormal, we still afford rights to disabled. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

What is the actual percentage of the world population medically intersex people that are born? What is the actual percentage of the world population that self-identifies as a non-binary gender? |

This is the me me me generation. You have to accommodate ME because that's what mommy did at home. You never saw this crap a few generations ago, before the feminist movement. Strong father figures teach boys how to be men. We now have a rudderless society floundering around, so pitiful they can't even figure out what gender they are. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

To play the devil's advocate on this one, EB could argue that he wasn't making a sweeping generalization, but referring to a group within a group. I'll let this one slide with a warning to play nicely. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

Without looking it up, I don't know. How small does a population have to be for people to discriminate against them? OTOH, we don't build military fighter jets for blind people. I understand the cost constraints and practical applications. But braille on a door to identify something in a public building isn't asking too much. Not harassing someone for being different isn't too much to ask either. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |
