Why is it so difficult to be charitable? Women who have been - in my own circumstances -

1) casually groped on a Parisian metro

2) propositioned to be a sex worker because my boobs developed early

3) jerked off in front of me on a 2-seat bus seat

4) knifed in the lung in an attempt to force me off the road for rape

5) cleansed my San Francisco street from the negative vibes of a violent near-death rape of a young women

Do you not understand? You believe your trans identity is the Most Important Thing Ever - well, to women living life every day you are suspect. It takes more than a proclamation to gain our trust. Men like Steve QJ get it - they know what we feel.

Maybe practice a little humility, a little grace. Ask. Don’t demand. The posturing is getting a little too much.

I heard from a friend in the USA about a coworker who monopolized every gathering of two or more people, including meetings, with endless meandering about her "gender identity" and management was too cowed to do anything about it. Yeah, Most Important Thing Ever.

The trans movement is the most narcissistic, ever. I mean that literally.

Yeah it's not like there are male and female in the animal and plant kingdoms or anything. /s

Well the only "sexual dimorphism" I can think in the plant kingdom is cannabis, although maybe there are a few others. ;) But no gender-changing for mammals!

Angiosperms have both pistillate, stamenate, and combined flowers.

Gymnosperms have cones or not.

I was a champion marijuana grower; one of the problems is that since we take out the stamenate ("male") plants, sometimes the pistillates grow a few stamenates and the buds end up with seeds if we aren't vigilant. Plants have sexes, but it's not the same as higher animals.

Some amphibians can change sex, and there are hermaphroditic snakes.

Gender advocates insist that developmental defects prove that "gender is a social construct."

Yeah, cannabis is the only one I've ever heard of referred to as 'male' and 'female'. You defnitely don't want male plans to splooge all over your female plants unless you need more seeds.

I tell the gendernutzis that 100% sexually dimorphic mammals prove that for *all* mammals it's not.

Usually dimorphism reflects differing care of the young. Big exception in cats; males take no part in raising kittens yet the two sexes are all but indistinguishable.
