Students studying midwifery at a prominent University in the United Kingdom were taught that biological males can get pregnant and give birth through their penis before instructors hastily edited a workbook they were given.

Shouldn't be a problem if they engage in sounding with an IUD.

Biology teacher says it’s more 'inclusive' to say that eggs come from ovaries rather than women

"It's not women that produce eggs. It’s ovaries that produce eggs."

Some women are biologically male.

Biological sex doesn't determine the social category woman.

From these premises what she is saying is true.

[Lightspeed]

It's pretty crack up the idea of the patriarchy sitting down and hatching this op.

What it looks like to me is feminism is a victim of its own success. It was the thin edge of the wedge that opened a way for the vulnerable in our communities to have a voice.

But it's not the woe it's made out to be. In fact, it's great. Instead of women being erased, women will thrive. When you meet a woman in all of her feminine glory, it will be because that's the woman she wants to be.

It's only awkward for our rapey friends who want to keep the status quo as it is.

This is a good point.
If it's OK to adjust your body to fit the sex you 'feel' that you are; why does this not apply to other features such as regional/ethnic features.

For example surgery to get eyes widened/narrowed, nose flattened/unflattened, etc etc.

Ethnicity affirmation party anyone?

PAGING LIGHTSPEED. PAGING LIGHTSPEED.

Mental health issues. We're just too polite to say so.

[fixed_truth]

Gender dysphoria is a mental health issue. But having gender dysphoria isn't essential to being transgender.


Some food for thought on transracial vs transgender identity.

Let us make one methodological comment at the start. When considering whether to revise rules for gender or race classification, we think that there are important considerations at both the population level and the individual level. While it is important and good to value a person’s autonomy and respect their identifications, we also think this good must be weighed against the population-level effects of revising our classifications. In cases where revising a classification would have a negative sociopolitical impact that outweighs the good of respecting how an individual identifies, we think that the classification should not be revised. And we think that revising the rules of race classification to accommodate transracial identification into Blackness is a case like this.

Doesn't matter; according to the affirmation model, what the patient feels is reality.

No. You're not even allowed to think about it, because holding those thoughts in your head means you are participating in thoughtcrime.

Yeah, we get disingenuous people would be indifferent to the inaccuracies in this framing.

However the consequences these people are able to generate are minimal, right? Sure, some consideration needs to be giving to agendas that would try to promote such cognitively bankrupt perspectives. But ultimately energy is better spent elsewhere. And it is.

A Disney executive in charge of content vowed to up the ante on gender politics during an all-hands meeting, promising that at least half of the characters in its productions will be LGBTQIA or from racial minorities by the end of the year.

General entertainment president Karey Burke choked up during Monday, saying the issue hit close to home because of her children.

'I'm here as the mother of two queer children, actually, one transgender child and one pansexual child, and also as a leader,' she said.

During the same all-hands meeting, television animation executive producer Latoya Raveneau gushed about Disney's inclusivity and boasted about 'adding queerness' to shows and productions.

It's not worse than the status quo... unless you're one of the few benefiting from it of course.

The wider context is this whole toxic mess.

And this is just the simmering. At some point this all comes to a head and explodes, with devastating consequence. And I mean devastating relative to the current circumstances.

When I hear "I'm gluten intolerant" I hear "I'm special, give me attention". When I hear "I identify as nonbinary and these are my neopronouns" I hear "I'm special, give me attention". When I hear "I suffer from verbal tics and I have multiple personalities" I hear "I'm special, give me attention". When I hear "I'm the parent of two queer children, actually, one transgender child and one pansexual child" I hear "I am so narcissistic I might actually die if I you don't all tell me how brave I am right fucking now, and give me all your attention until I tell you when to stop".

What's gone wrong with the world that getting attention is that important? That you'd sell out your own child's identity just to get some cred with your in-group?

[Lightspeed]

Desperate inequality. That's it's. The competition for resources is bitter.

Yep. The thought that the abortion debate is going to get tied up in this scares the shit out of me. The US is one bad day away from A Handmaid's Tale in real time.

Tesla has been dropped from the Standards & Poor's Environmental, Social and Governance (S&P ESG) 500 Index. Even though Tesla's entire business is about transitioning the world to sustainable energy, it was dropped because of the company's "codes of business conduct" and "two separate events centered around claims of racial discrimination and poor working conditions".

Gas and oil multinational Exxon Mobil was included in the index.
