Be consistent. Embrace the dark side.
To be fair, I asked if you thought a "biological male" exists.

Rob "disagrees" with me that I'm not a "biologically male" woman; I can acknowledge his scraps of kindness without picking them up off the floor

I hope they take his award away and then he can go away for a bit and come back ready to make amends and be a champion once again ! He can even play himself in the movie about his life.

*Ricky Gervais voice.... "No I shouldn't"*
a man is someone who is happy that his identity is "man", regardless of the sex he was assigned at birth
Nobody except maybe Burt has said that though. People, mostly rob, are just asking you to discuss the second part with us and help us understand. I certainly was mostly just reading the entire time. But if you come into every situation has “oh that’s typical male shit” then we’re always behind the 8 ball and can’t win with you.Ms Harmless wrote:as for my "history of equating disagreement with unkindness", that's kind of an obvious straw biological male
that doesn't happen with most issues, it repeatedly happens with a few
if I say "here is my identity and here is how you and society can embrace and be kind towards it", and you say yes to the first part but no to the second? it's not kindness, it's just niceness to soothe your own ego
