I am a big fan of V is for Vendetta, and a movie with Hugo Weaving and Natalie Portman could have been great. From what I understand though, they have cut out really the heart of the story, and basically made it into a sci-fi/thriller without any of the context. So it would be kind of like the Matrix with all of the special effects, but none of the plot, philosophy and whatnot. This is what I've heard, and I am going to skip the movie since Hollywood seems to have ruined it. This is how it's going to be unless I hear from existing V is for Vendetta fans hat I have somehow been mistaken. But I don't think I am. Perhaps in a few years someone can do this script the right way. It's too bad someone like Alex Cox (Sid and Nancy, Repo Man) didn't direct this years ago.
I would really really like to see Apple and Quicktime vanish forever.
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?

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."
...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.
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.
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.
