V,

There's a context to my (and every one else's) posts.

If you dis-embed one post, one line, from the others then you can make it seem that I mean 'this' instead of 'that'.

Yes, I "*certainly posted about it in this thread", but within the context of the 'source' of maleness, the source of femaleness.

As I say in post 164...

'XY imparts certain characteristics to the flesh (as a whole). You possess these characteristics because you are XY (male, 'he'). How you choose to accentuate or diminish those characteristics is up to you. Your reasons or reasoning for accentuating or diminishing these characteristics is yours to suss out and is wholly irrelevant to me (or this thread). The source of those characteristics, however, remains the same (regardless of 'where' or 'when' you happen to be, or, what you want, or perceive yourself, to be).'

"Ibby's genitals being her business, not yours"

Agreed. What is my business, however, is the demand to ignore what is real (Ibby being male) in favor of making him 'feel' better about himself.

##

Sun,

"HQ is referring to Calpernia as "he"."

Because he's a guy.

##

Dana,

"...a turd when it's floating in a sewer"

Of all the folks disagreeing with me, you, Dana are the most puzzling.


(1) As you are an academic, I thought you'd appreciate 'fact' over 'feeling'.

I offer 'fact' and you weigh in with 'feeling'.


(2) As liberal or progressive or whatever, I thought you'd appreciate 'tolerance'.

I make no threats and levy no insults against Ibby or any other transgendered person. I tell him (over and over) he SHOULD DO EXACTLY AS HE LIKES WITH HIS FLESH and this isn't enough for you. As I will not submit to the current 'correct' view, my tolerance (indifference, really) is dismissed and I'm called 'bully' and 'cunt'.

Fundamentally: Ibby wants to be called 'she' when in fact he is 'he' and I'm the bad guy because I won't walk the proscribed line dictated by Ibby and his supporters.

*shrug*











*and, if that had been my only post in this thread, you might have a platform to call me out, but it wasn't my only post.
