Re: Mississipi School Discriminate Transgender Girl

But don’t tell a small boy that he can be a girl if he chooses. It may not be a "choice". Around 2% of people worldwide may have some mix of genetic traits that present in ways that don't fit a strict 100% male/female definition: https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/articles/16324-inters...

Re: Mississipi School Discriminate Transgender Girl

Layne This “there is only one truth” sounds like the sort of thing a religious lunatic would spout. I’m sure that’s not you, nor what you intend, but rhetoric that deals in absolutes isn’t a good way of engaging in conversation. As a scientist, the acknowledgment of fact or truth should never rely ...

Re: Out and About -- In the World at Large

I absolutely love the idea of a dress more and more, but have trouble with the location of the waistline; especially being on the taller side.

Re: Mississipi School Discriminate Transgender Girl

If one can be convinced to believe the opposite of a scientific fact - what else can they be convinced to believe or do? Like too many arguments, on this subject people argue past one another because they are using different definitions of a word. I don't think anyone is believing the opposite of a...

Re: Mississipi School Discriminate Transgender Girl

Going back to Layne's comment: "Present however you want, live as you wish, but don’t expect me to accept who you pretend to be if you couldn’t accept who you are." There's a lot of people out there who are lost in themselves, so they have to find a way to exist. They "pretend". ...

Not true. You'll never find truth when two politicians have a conversation.
Your statement is flawed. There exists but one truth - even if 0/2 parties in a given discussion can or will state it.

Re: Mississipi School Discriminate Transgender Girl

Who said anything about telling lies Layne? Yes, the biology is simple until there is reassignment and irreversible treatment, but the psychology is certainly not! Like it or not - we don’t all get “our own truth”. There is but one truth in every conversation. Present however you want, live as you w...

Re: Mississipi School Discriminate Transgender Girl

I’ve been here a long time (this forum) and very much appreciate one’s ability to dress as one chooses; however, it’s incredibly irresponsible for adults to participate in this madness. This is not a transgender girl - this is a boy. The biology is quite simple.

Lying to our youth is dangerous.

Re: Out and About -- In the World at Large

If women allowed to wear skirts or trousers, then you could have a discrimination lawsuit against the restaurant! Why have we become such a litigious society? If a private business has rules, policies, etc. that you don’t like or agree with, why not simply do business elsewhere? There is a reason w...

Re: Out and About -- In the World at Large

So sorry you had a bad experience. I went on a larger family trip to WDW and wore kilts, exclusively all week. Yes they drew a lot of attention. As a matter of fact, almost every time I went through the park gates, I was “randomly selected for additional screening”. So much so that it became our ins...

Re: Ballet Flats and Mary Janes Back on the Runway

I have both the Mols and the Lolland in a size 46 and can attest to their comfort and quality. Am in the market for a pair of ballet flats in that same size, but so far no luck.
