You mean biological sex might be a non-functional feature by which to identify and categorize adult humans based on brief visual inspection and we shouldn't base massive social systems on the worst dinguses' ability to do this accurately?? 🀯

Image and text on my Windows start screen today. The image is of George Washington. The first line of text reads: "George Washington quiz". The second reads "Who was the first President of the United States?". The third is a link reading "Take the quiz".

Easy! It's Haydn, isn't it?

I hope that Vance learns that this is the art of a gay man, & that it includes Michelangelo’s painting of his lover, Tommaso dei Cavalieri [pic].

Fascists do not understand art. How can they, when their ideology is to destroy freedom of expression? A Queer masterpiece dwarfs a bigot.

This is an example of the violence that anti-transgender thugs post, while claiming it's "to protect women."

Then they try to deny the teenagers who murdered Brianna Ghey were influenced by such rhetoric.

I mean that words derive their meanings from their usages, and the word woman is now regularly used in reference to trans women.

The objective reality is that the word woman is used additionally in reference to trans women.

True. That’s not the argument being made, though.

And yet they still don’t β€œenforce the rules,” which makes rather a myth of the β€œfemale-only” space.

Nor were there natal females filming themselves masturbating in public toilets before the rise of the camera phone…

What β€œfemale-only” spaces? There are practically no spaces in public life that bother enforcing entry based on a meaningful assessment of sex. When the only requirement is appearing female, of course trans women walk right in.

The so-called β€œsex essentialism” of TERFs, folks! β€œSex-based” spaces is such a howler. Gets me every time.

Once again James condemns supposedly revisionist history books (left intentionally vague) written after the advent of social media that he has not read and could not name when challenged.

As ever, James fails to even possess an argument. Instead, he falls back on the word β€œcult,” such a favoured crutch of his kind, i.e. the intellectually outmatched.

You have pressed β€˜Show’ β€” this means you confirmed you have little man syndrome and are entirely wrong in your established position re: trans people.

If you’re so linguistically educated, James, please explain what I initially asked you to before you made that weird non sequitur about a third sex.

Meaningless? No, you’re confusing my retort with all those side roles you scraped together while watching others take the lead.

β€œAugustus.” Just like you to reference a juvenile comic relief role! You’ve made a career out of playing the punchline, James. No surprise you’re still clinging to one.

Make sure it’s close to the stage, though, so I can actually see you, given your diminutive stature.

Perfect for growth spurts. If only you had known. Maybe then it would’ve been you kissing Julia Roberts.

The Gosling-as-Ken gif was an inspired choice, Jamesβ€”truly. A global leading man effortlessly parodying his own allure, while you’re here reliving your supporting-role glory days.

β€œGrown-ups talking.” Please, you’re a very little man who struggles to speak in anything but TERF clichΓ©s. There’s nothing grown up about you.

Our conversation today has left me fairly certain that the dim-witted Constable Kevin Goody was the most autobiographical role of his fading career.

And yet you just got intellectually trounced by a β€œ12-year-old.” Well done, James. Now come join us on the swings and sob about how your equally diminutive stature kept you from landing all those leading-man roles you wanted. Boo hoo. 😭

You made a claim: that I’ve absorbed revisionist history. I’ve askedβ€”repeatedlyβ€”for a single example, a single source, a single anything to back that up. You’ve offered nothing but flailing generalities and lazy insults. If you can’t name the revisionist works I’ve supposedly absorbed, then drop the
