Henry, you have no understanding whatsoever of the concept of gender, which has literally absolutely nothing to do with physical sex, except when cultural forces make it so.

Happy monkey nailed it. all you cunts who refuse to take the time and add one little letter to your pronouns are ONLY doing it to be unpleasant little bitches and get a rise out of me. it tends to work. congrats.

Apparently you have learned it is far easier to preach than practice eh?
One can only assume your not as "tolerant" as you claim.

I am disappoint.

The sheer fact that a homo thread gets more attention than one speaking of sound minds goes to show that the level of sanity and morality on this entire bullitian board is least to say "poor."

That's very commendable JBKlyde, supporting Ibram just like a big brother would. We know you'll watch over Ibram and teach Ibram well.

Rrright, where it's understood by all that when you say "this kind", you are referring to the kind that you personally experience. Obviously, we aren't in this thread talking about any other kind.

And how we "fight" is:

A) We calmly discuss an issue that intelligent people may disagree on, and discover through common respect what we can learn from each other in a two-way process.

B) We call everybody we disagree with a fucking ignorant cunt.

(B-prime) Assume the moral high ground. That way B is permitted and is not poor behavior.

AND BY THE WAY when you talk about gender you are not speaking for all TG people. And I know this because: well, I've known more of them than you have.

From now on, I'd like to be known as Big Dick Blaque.

Because it's a 100% accurate description.

Gotta agree with that. OTOH, I believe my Klingon insult to quirky henry was totally called for. I'm wondering what it's well-thought-out, logical explanation is for it's prejudice against Ibram.

But the cost to me is high if 'I' pretend he's a 'she', 'cause he's not.
Why does physical appearance trump psychological belief? We have enough evidence now to know that there is a different brain chemistry between men and women, and also between any kind of person in between.

Surely what's on the inside is equally important as what's on the outside.

As to the rest of this shit fight, I've started a number of threads in the past after being prompted to thought by something another poster believes or thinks about. Personally, I've never considered it to be attacking the other person, but an exploration of an idea that I don't feel very informed about usually.

I musta missed this one B4, but since it 's been brought to my attention (thanks Ali. ), tell me Mr. Hanky, what exactly is the cost to you? Cuz I see no logical way this can affect your state of being.
