The tenor sax sound is definitely masculine.
Phil Woods could soften up the sound to alto, make is more cozy than honking.

To trivialise is to be sarcastic

To categorize by gender is to trivialize science.

In other words when you human beings had evolved enough to be able to 'read between the lives', then, and only then, you will begin to see, and understand, the True and whole picture of all-there-is, too.

This is wonderful news.

By evolved, do you mean those who manifest the latent tendencies inherent in everyone, or do you mean those who will possess characteristics beyond the current capacity of humans, because those characteristics have not been developed into form ... much like birds are said to have evolved into the wings unknown to reptiles?

That was not the intention. Perhaps I'm a trivial person, however the reasoning goes: Phil Woods is sublime, a performance artist whose act is to blend Shiva and Shakti into the sublime expression of humanness with the alto tones of a brass woodwind (brasswind?) that goes honk honk if not sublime, and no sublime is a crying shame of short shrift in the mechanical age of AI.

Poms are all nuts. Awful people.

You’ve always known that, congratulations. Can’t keep away from them though can you. Misery loves company or else why do you keep reading Pom nuts shit. poo poo head.

So.












Does NE1 actually want to question an actual Christian?

What is a so-called actual "christian", exactly?

Masculine sex certainly is. It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that schwing to share.

But I did not insinuate God has a penis.

For Christians, God (aka Jesus) did have a penis.

So, if for so-called "christians" the just another human being named "jesus christ' is God, Itself, then obviously all of the other things attributed to God that "jesus christ" could not and did not do are just False, and untrue, claims.

Leda and the Swan by W.B. Yeats

A sudden blow: the great wings beating still
Above the staggering girl, her thighs caressed
By the dark webs, her nape caught in his bill,
He holds her helpless breast upon his breast.

How can those terrified vague fingers push
The feathered glory from her loosening thighs?
And how can body, laid in that white rush,
But feel the strange heart beating where it lies?

A shudder in the loins engenders there
The broken wall, the burning roof and tower
And Agamemnon dead.
Being so caught up,
So mastered by the brute blood of the air,
Did she put on his knowledge with his power
Before the indifferent beak could let her drop?

I accept what you say; I forgot about Jesus Christ. Trinitarian God and Zeus both have penises.

However my main point , despite Yeats's amazing sophistry, remains , that gender is a cultural matter.

There's no such thing as 'gender'. The word is SEX.

Why does this one believe, absolutely, that what it only views and believes is true is absolutely true.

She may be right though. Nobody knows for certain what human behaviours are sex-linked,and the controversy is further confused by the existence of trans people.

What a ridiculous statement. You think it's 'controversial' to say that rape is 'sex linked'? And there is no such thing as 'transpeople'. Humans are so bloody thick and easy to brainwash. The worst thing about this cult is the inclusion of children in the global con, feeding them the evil lie that they can be 'born in the wrong body'. We aren't 'born into our bodies'. We ARE our bodies. You can't have a 'wrong' body. Children are brainwashing sponges, but adults have no excuse. At least try to make an effort to think critically. You really aren't obliged to be 'nice' to creepy predatory misogynistic male perverts and cheats. Men have always been crossdressing, predatory perverts. The difference now is that it's become something to be lauded and applauded. They are treated as heroes. A 'vulnerable minority' group. The only genuinely and universally 'vulnerable group' is children, and after them women.

Here's a 'vulnerable oppressed' 'transperson'. It's not a fetish at all. I'm sure this school teacher (the photo on the left is how he looks at school) doesn't get any kind of a sexual kick out of this at all...

So.....A person can flip from being part of a 'vulnerable minority' to the LEAST vulnerable class of human, simply by changing his clothes. FOR FUCK SAKE!

But, this was not the point.

Hey coach, here’s a tidy explanation which has been known before the word "gender" was appropriated by social engineers fifty years or so years ago.

On the left he displays an infant's perspective linked to hunger, and if that's the same guy on the right he has appetite issues.

It was appropriated by idiot puritanical Americans who were too coy to use the word SEX. Just look at the mess it has caused. Now it apparently means some kind of 'sexed soul' that floats around and sometimes lands in the 'wrong bodies'. For Fuck Sake.
