    Wrong. One of the Wachowski's is a woman, and her name is Linda.

    No. They are both men,regardless of what he calls himself. Gender is not in the mind.

    Some keywords for your Google searches: Gender Identity Disorder,

    A mental disorder which is believed to be cureable.

    Klinefelter's Syndrome,

    A slight biological mutation which may make a man less of a hunk but does not make him a woman (except perhaps a blond since there is a risk he'll be less intelligent than a 'normal' man)

    Intersexed

    If taken to mean hermaphrodite that's a very rare (Leonard Sax, 2002 estimates the incidence of true intersexual conditions at approximately 0.018% of births) mutation.

    If its the "gee i wish i was the other sex" we are back to the mental disorder.

    Who has a dick perhaps?

    Orwell was a contradictory tard as are both you and the grandparent who refered to him as a "libertarian Marxist." The only fiction writer who imbuse their work with philosophy/political advocacy that is work reading is Ayn Rand.

    Still, Orwell was a better writer than one of his equally popularized contemporaries, Steinback.

    "> No. They are both men,regardless of what he calls himself. Gender is not in the mind."

    No. You are who you present.


    Lol. So if you call yourself the president you are the president? Nonsense. You do not become a women by pretending to be one.

    You may be biologically correct (Linda has a reasonably normal X & Y chromosome pair) and surely her evident secondary sex characterstics (her phenotype) are artificial,



    Ie, I am right. ...but for the sake of tolerance, wisdom, and simply getting along with the six or so billion people on this planet, you must take someone's presentation as granted.

    Nonsense. It has nothing to do with tolerance or getting along, you may be able to tolerate a guy pretending to be a woman (if he has a good sense of humor and a passing fashion sense), but that doesn't make him a women. Simple as that.

    Just STFU and accept people for what they're doing, not what you think they "are."

    Why dont you shut the fuck up and show some of
    that tolerance you don't have - hypocrite.
