Yes, they're so aware of their privacy they're posting nude pictures of themselves online, posting where they're going for vacation, posting how drunk/stoned they are, posting pictures, in general, of themselves at all kinds of locations and notifying everyone and everything about their daily lives.
Yes, they're much more aware of their privacy by showing the world everything about their lives.
I think you're referring to the parents, not the kids.
And yet you were foolish enough to make an absolute statement with no evidence to back it up, and you say it's super uncommon, when in fact it's very common. The stats on M2F trans: 18% are lesbian, 32% are bi, 50% are straight. 16% of Latino, 17% of white, and 56% of black M2F are also HIV positive (source: CDC), so it's far more than super uncommon. There's also the trans-fans. Guys who specifically seek out transwomen because that's what they want.
Those numbers are absolutely insane, and yet there they are. Makes me wonder what the hell people are trying to prove - that the more people who f*ck you the more of a woman you are? We say it has nothing to do with sex, and yet so many go on sex shopping sprees after. And if you go on Failbook, you can find many of them bragging about how many dicks they've had after surgery.
I guess they feel that they have to make up for lost time or something... but with those HIV stats, they're doing it wrong, and 82% are doing it with men (50% straight and 32% bi), and most don't stop at one, so that puts the lie to your "super rare" claim.
Johns Hopkins got caught suppressing the fact that John Money had faked all his research into the plasticity of gender identity in the David Reimer case to promote his mistaken belief that gender is learned, not innate. They did their best to hush things up, to the point that Money was never disciplined, even though Money's fakery resulted in Reimer's suicide.
So now Johns Hopkins is gun-shy. They were lucky to have dodged one lawsuit, and now won't do anything that might remotely risk one in that field.
And doc stanley was referring to the person's physical reproductive capacity after a sex change, which of course results in the person being neutered. Some of us are more than what's between the legs; otherwise srs wouldn't even be a thought.
Simple Definition of inalienable - impossible to take away or give up. And full definition - "incapable of being alienated, surrendered, or transferred"
Nobody's talking about the US constitution here, which in fact did violate human rights in many ways (women, slaves, non-landowners).
However, now that you brought it up, the government regularly infringes on the right of free speech. Chelsea Manning, search warrants with gag orders, etc.
The problem with your math is competition. Other companies will also automate, and pass on some of the savings to customers, eating into the profits of the first business. So you have more people out of work, which means fewer people with money to buy the product just as the product is dropping in price. Given the slack demand because there are fewer people with money, the businesses will cut profit to make it up in market share, or just to have cash flow to keep the lights on.
Eventually the businesses don't have any extra money either. Welcome to the new ouroborus.
So what? The local population is greater than Arizona, all roadwork is unionized, and the only tolls we have are on a few government/private industry partnerships. We're building a new $4.2 billion bridge with no tolls. Unionization doesn't mean toll roads.
Unemployment is NOT lower. The US has a population of 319 million, and only 151 million are employed. That's less than half the work force - and worse than japan, which is 50/50.
It's funny - the same people who say that the poor should just work harder and longer and they won't be poor are also the ones who want the biggest tax breaks for the rich, instead of telling them to also work harder and longer.
Raising the tax rate on the rich would encourage them to work harder to make up the lost income, by being more innovative and creating jobs that will have workers put money into everyone's pocket up and down the line.
Sorry, but I don't buy into any Richard Dawkin crap. He says he's an atheist, and yet he also says he's "almost" certain god doesn't exist. He's an agnostic. Real atheists can't stand his pseudo-intellectual posturing on the subject.
So no, no theory of memes either, and no memetic engineering. Prove the theory is valid, then we'll talk.
You've never seen municipal politics at work, have you? Do you think union member WANT to repave some politician's buddy's driveway and have it come out of their taxes?
If you need more than a 3x5 index card with a few reminders, you don't know your sh*t well enough to give a speech. Exhibit A - Powerpoint presentations and the dummies who use them.
They wouldn't dare put a "hate" or "don't like" or "are you shitting me?" option. And yet, a "disagree" button would make sense if you're trying to be even a bit statistically honest.
"Oh, you got 1,000 likes?" Big deal. That means that the other 999,999,000 either don't like you, wish you would drop dead, or are just plain ignoring you.
Right about now, given the choice, many Republicans would wish she were the candidate instead of Trump. Trump has exposed the GOP as the party of choice for old angry white men with little education. Jenner would have made the party look what - more inclusive? Less antagonistic? A vote for real change? At the very least, she would have blocked hillary from playing the woman card without hillary seeming intolerant to her base.
If you abuse a right, you risk having it taken away from you
No, you don't. Rights aren't privileges. The right to free speech is inalienable.
Wow, so nobody has ever been put into a concentration camp? Or been enslaved? Or forced into prostitution? And all those school girls kidnapped by Boko Haram was just another lie?
I've yet to meet any straight guys who have said they would date a transgender person.
Because I've run into many who would, maybe because you can't tell just by looking. We're everywhere, and unless you're gay, you've almost definitely gotten turned on by at least one of us without even knowing.
ISTR it was Danny Dallas who said "If you weren't a transsexual before surgery, you are after." A good warning for non-transsexuals, but those are the ones who won't heed it.
Actually, you're wrong. Anyone getting their bone marrow wiped out and new marrow from a donor of the opposite sex will show up as the donor's sex on a blood test.
The problem with your theory is that genes don't express themselves in a vacuum - hence epigenetics
epigenetics is the study of cellular and physiological phenotypic trait variations that result from external or environmental factors that switch genes on and off and affect how cells express genes
From the time the sperm and egg meet, epigenetics are part and parcel of development.
Also, you obviously are one of those mouth breathers who lumps in trans people with pedophiles, since you just did, so why should anyone take you seriously?
You don't get to dictate what is morally wrong for others. If it does no harm, it's simply none of your damn business, and there can be no moral argument made against it.
Your body, your choices. My body, my choices. That's part of what personal autonomy means.
So what part of the country are you proposing that has land and water and the ability to farm crops year-round so they don't have to store food, spend money on pest control, farm equipment, veterinary bills for cattle, and everything else involved in producing food?
Wanna bet that it's already in use, either for farming or for a housing development? I don't think the current occupants are going to just voluntarily up and leave.

Hmm, maybe it's time to write a browser that doesn't show images. It would be as fast as a wildcat. Maybe we could call it Lynx?

Well, if I had a social media website I wouldn't really care about alliterate content from write-only morons
"Alliterate" - I don't think that word means what you think it does.
The crap directed at Caitlyn every day on Failbook far surpasses anything I've ever seen on slashdot. It's doubtful they filter anything.
If you need more than a 3x5 index card with a few reminders, you don't know your sh*t well enough to give a speech. Exhibit A - Powerpoint presentations and the dummies who use them.
There are still prisoners in Gitmo. Doesn't matter whether it's Obama or obstructionists on the other side, it's still shameful.

And Caitlyn Jenner is, dipshit?
Use your fucking brain before you post.
Right about now, given the choice, many Republicans would wish she were the candidate instead of Trump. Trump has exposed the GOP as the party of choice for old angry white men with little education. Jenner would have made the party look what - more inclusive? Less antagonistic? A vote for real change?

Rights are taken away from people all the time.
Remember, the consciousness is in your brain, not in your dick.
I'm not sure that is the case here - this guy is obviously thinking with his dick. (I know, so what else is new?)
Are you sure?
I've yet to meet any straight guys who have said they would date a transgender person.
Because I've run into many who would, maybe because you can't tell just by looking. We're everywhere, and unless you're gay, you've almost definitely gotten turned on by at least one of us without even knowing.
