That's just it: it's not a revelation. All women know it, and you know it.

If you believe that, get help. But the point is much simpler: there's no exclusive relationship between maleness and violence. Women are quite capable of all kinds of violence...physical, reputational, psychological, financial, social...
As I said, than you for your stunning revelations. And try to work on your reading comprehension.
I think you meant "thank you." "Than" isn't an English word, last time I checked. :lol:
Sticky k. Thank you so much, although 'than' is definitely an English word, but not the one I intended :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

An 18-year-old Muslim woman has been elected to a council seat in Lancashire on a platform of banning free mixing between the sexes, under any circumstances.

This, obviously, is going too far in the opposite direction, and it never ceases to astonish me how the pro-trans lobby and their fellow travellers can make common cause with those who push for this sort of thing.

There is surely a happy median, a compromise, and this is the one that we've been perfectly content to abide by for the best part of a century or more.

The English are nuts. Why on earth would anyone vote for her? It's not even a high muslim constituencey. I think it's the extreme apathy of normal voters that these people depend on. It wouldn't be hard if one group votes en masse while everyone else can't be bothered. This is why it's important to vote.

I'd be surprised if any English people voted for her, to be honest, except perhaps a few pro-Hamas types. Interestingly, Reform came a pretty good second.

I see your govt. is trying to weasel its way out of complying with the Supreme Court ruling. I had a strong feeling that would happen. Facts, science and basic common sense prevailing has become like an impossible dream. So-called 'gender identity' has driven the human race insane. It's an impossible burden for society to carry when it's written into law.

It's no surprise that Reform are doing so well, with both major parties pushing this sort of thing. I would definitely have voted for them, despite recent missteps on their part, if we had had any elections where I live.

Twitter is all abuzz at the moment with a show you have over there called 'I kissed a boy' because they've included a woman with short hair and a moustache. It's all so wrong on so many levels. I can't even get my head around that and don't particularly want to because it will give me a headache. It's tragic, sad, offensive, illogical, anti-gay, anti-biology, anti-sexuality, incoherent...all at the same time. It's setting her up for ridicule. As if any gay man is ever going to be interested sexually in a straight woman (which is what she is).

This is in no-way at all supposed to be loaded or insinuative or anything liek this - is the general vibe here a bit right-of-center(or, classically liberal?)
Not quite the usual among philosophers (though, i take it most are amateurs).

Is that supposed to mean something? Perhaps try proofreading first.
