    dunno, I had the opportunity to get nosy not to long ago, I enjoy taking the train through the mountains, and Ive met some incredibly interesting people on trains. Id guess he turned out to be about 5'9 ish, the one thing that did stand out as noticeable to me was that his voice was raspy sounding but who knows what caused that. Personally I dont really pay much attention to that sort of thing and dont look at people that closely outside a glance, well except for some super hot 20-30 yo pam anderson style babe with knockout looks n bod, but in his case the only way I could tell was that he told me when the conversation drifted to rights and got political.

    lol. he is grown now, and he can set his own goals, I think people who criticize punctuation and capitalization have weak points in their argument, how about asking him if he could rephrase his question

    we have 2 sides of the same objectionable coin in power making all the decisions for you.

    Unsecure voting what more could anyone ask for!

    Politically based courts

    Rule of Law converted to Rule of Politics

    Scared? People today welcome the chains.

    Everything they dont want you to see filed under national security.

    The national institute of standards and techology refusing to release the actual data on why wtc 7 fell because it might jeopardize public safety, whats to be scared of?

    I seen a good one on qoura the other day



    What's something you believe wholeheartedly but defies any kind of logic?

    Human perversity—that is, our ability to make lemons out of lemonade,

    to make bad situations infinitely worse, and to destroy ourselves for no

    reason, except sheer malignancy. In the endless war between eros and

    thanatos, thanatos wins every time. Dostoievski called this “self-torture”

    (nedrayev). William James diagnosed it as “the sick soul.” Freud feared

    it would hasten the end of the human race. He was right. Abortion is a

    red herring; life begins with misconception, which gestates into mischief

    and misery. Mass extermination is what lies in store, be it a quick death

    (nuclear weapons) or a slow one (ecocide). Name your poison. There is

    only one antidote to self-annihilation: like Molly Bloom, say yes to life, or

    else death will soon wave hello and goodbye, before we can even say no.

    This is where my expertise comes in I'm attracted to men so I look at men and the ones that are trans except for only people I've ever seen in photographs so I don't know if the real or not don't look very masculine.

    It's okay I don't judge a person on that it's just I can tell they're not a man or not a biological man.

    He can set his own goals. Maybe using gibberish achieves some goal in a Thread OP that an adult might contemplate. Maybe you could suggest what that might be.

    Yes. We've always had people who appear androgynous.

    So, how did we manage to deal with that?

    You expressed concern about not being able to tell the full biology of a human by looking at the person.

    I pointed out that we have faced that forever.

    Maybe you can describe what problem you are facing.

    No. Nobody has ever expressed concern about such nonsense in the entirety of human history.

    So why are you making this straw man that's what I'm trying to figure out.
    I have no idea what this is in reference to.
    No idea what you're talking about.

    You said, "It's okay I don't judge a person on that it's just I can tell they're not a man or not a biological man."

    Please explain this concern of yours.

    In a heterosexual species, a homosexual individual is abnormal. Thats basic biology.

    What is normal for biology is to have a pretty broad range of just about everything.

    And, that certainly includes sexuality.

    Arguing with biology doesn't accomplish anything that could remotely be considered helpful to our society.

    Wrong.

    By definition, homosexuality in a heterosexual species is abnormal.

    But to someone that says "Arguing with biology doesn't accomplish anything that could remotely be considered helpful to our society" using science to make a point is above their head.

    What happened to you were the party of science? LOL

    I'm not a big fan of people trying to guess other people's sexuality.

    Obviously, it makes a difference in one's personal intimate relationships.

    But, in our public domain we need to learn to treat each other as humans.

    We have enough problem with that just in trying to treat those we see as female in an equal manner. Plus, there is the problem of white supremacy, etc.

    I don't agree with that being called "abnormal". That word clearly has negative connotations.

    Also, biology shows that same sex orientation exists in pretty much all animal species.

    Besides, biology shows that sexuality comes in more than 2 or 3 patterns. It's more like a range.

    Yes, biology is a science and I tend to follow science - what other source of information is more reliable than that?

    Why would I care what sticks in your craw?
    I think women are pretty pleased with their position. They don't want to be treated equally if the did they'd sign up for the draft and never consider abortion.

    There isn't a problem with white supremacy that's a conspiracy theory.

    Article — https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20170315-the-invention-of-heterosexuality


    The 1901 Dorland’s Medical Dictionary defined heterosexuality as an “abnormal or perverted appetite toward the opposite sex.” More than two decades later, in 1923, Merriam Webster’s dictionary similarly defined it as “morbid sexual passion for one of the opposite sex.” It wasn’t until 1934 that heterosexuality was graced with the meaning we’re familiar with today: “manifestation of sexual passion for one of the opposite sex; normal sexuality.”

    Whenever I tell this to people, they respond with dramatic incredulity. That can’t be right! Well, it certainly doesn’t feel right. It feels as if heterosexuality has always “just been there.”

    Oh dear, nothing human is black or white, what is normal is to allow for a spectrum of behaviour rather than just dissing the outliers.

    White supremacy is based on hate for all who aren't white - that is just plain DISGUSTING and has NO place in our society. We need to eliminate that wherever it shows up in public life, as America stands for equal opportunity.

    No, women would like to be paid the same for equal work - which is not the case today. Also, they DO join the military, even with the rate of sexual assault in our armed service. Sexual assault raised from 2016 to 2018 by nearly 40%, and there is every indication that the rate of reporting is way low, because of the ramifications for reporting.

    As for abortion, why would women prefer that a government full of old white men make their healthcare decisions for them??? That just doesn't make any sense at all.

    yeah I like the ku Klux Klan or the neo-nazis they don't really have any cultural significance in this country. Anymore
    it really isn't a significant component of our society.
    so go down to the trailer parks in Alabama and tell those people to stop it.

    If you want me to say yeah I get him out of here I'm not going to.

    That's giving them too much credit.
    the pay gap is a very very thoroughly debunked myth.

    It is an earnings Gap and if women want to earn as much as men they need to man up. Part of that is not whining about it all the time.


    that's not what I said if they want to be treated equally they should be lobbying to force 18-year-olds to sign up for the selective services no choice. Then they will be equal to men in that regard. They don't want to do that because it's not better it's worse.
    you know what would happen if a man tried to sexually assault another man and get his ass kicked if they need to kick his ass that's part of Manning up if you want to be equal you can't be a victim.
    Because that's equality once a woman is pregnant and it's the man that slept with her the man doesn't get a choice equality is the same.

    It sounds like what you're arguing for is higher pay without as much work and special recognition for being a woman.

    You couldn't be more against equality if you tried.

    to mean that it's not usual sure. In a species where the average age is 75 and someone lives to 90 that's abnormal.
    as far as we can gather homosexuality is biological. And it's most people that are homosexual find out when they're in their adolescents when they desperately don't want to be different and if they could just switch they probably would.
    There's no such thing as a party of science. There can't be science has to be unbiased. That means scientific support for things like sexual orientation being immutable. Or that the climate isn't really changing at that alarming of a rate.

    Seeing in the party of science or even the party of God is trying to say that you're always right.

    And that's not what either one of those things is about.

    Requiring women to join the military because they are female is monumental BS.
    OK, at least you know that it is the woman who is pregnant!!
    Now you need to go back and read what I said.

    Because I was VERY explicit and I don't like your misrepresentations.

    There is a spectrum of behaviour, that does not mean all behaviour is normal or acceptable. Human beings are a heterosexual species, homosexuality is abnormal.

    Some people are just F'ed up and think they are a cat, or multiple personalities, or sociopathic, or the gender they are not.

    Its that simple.

    that's because you hate equality. You want your special little women put on a pedestal and that's why they can never be equal not until you change your way of thinking.

    You are the problem.
    yeah I'd prefer not to muddy this up with trans nonsense.
    why did you change it?
    Am I supposed to care? I read your claptrap one before you ever said it that's how I know how to debunk it so easily.
