  1. Three words: "gender affirming care."

  2. ​ @rpena0899 What are "typically feminine characteristics?" Does preferring combat boots and short hair make you less of a woman than if you wear a pink tutu and feather boa? What nonsense is this?

  3. @rpena0899  If that attire was not considered feminine during that period, then you've just contradicted your point. Attire does not make a human adult a man or a woman. Attire has nothing to do with it.

  4. Remember the video of that swim meet with the biological male beating all the women swimmers, and a woman in the audience said he was a man? Someone asked her if she was a biologist and she replied, "I don't have to be a veterinarian to know what a dog is."

  5.  @rpena0899  "In March 2022, Thomas became the first openly transgender athlete to win an NCAA Division I national championship in any sport after winning the women's 500-yard freestyle with a time of 4: 33. 24;" perhaps it was the video from that event. I have an exceptionally good memory. There are ways to work on that.

  6. ​@jasonmataafa5983 EVERY single developed country found a way to provide all of those things for its people, and for that matter, in 1970, in-state tuition at all the premier public universities was something a kid could earn with a minimum-wage summer job. Then, when you graduated debt-free, all you'd need to do was to team up with a couple of roommates and you could afford an apartment in Brooklyn or Queens, or even Manhattan, not to mention anywhere on the West coast. Health insurance was cheap. There was once a time when none of this was an issue, and now it's insurmountable for most people. You need to take a hard look at what changed. On a side note, when universities were affordable, calculus and Shakespeare and foreign languages were typical college subjects --- as were Nietzsche and Marx, for that matter. Now we're debating identities and pronouns.

  9. ​ @kyle-ri5mz Oh, educating kids makes you broke, but coddling dysfunctional billionaires and allowing them to set the social and political agenda is what? Good for "growth?" The dollar is more and more dependent on military might, and that was predictable. The dollar not being backed by other things, the way it once was.
