been an insult for millenia

In common use as an insult since 1979. Prior to that it was used in the psychological field for about a century

you mean she dislikes her father

someone with a developmental disability in which they mentally remain very much a child for their whole life

Adults with down syndrome are not "mentally children". Some people with down syndrome are able to live and function independently, and even among those who don't, they are disabled adults with higher support needs, not children. Being disabled doesn't stop time from passing, disabled people still fucking age.

and you know what else? People with down syndrome are perfectly capable of having consensual sex. Because they're grown fucking adults who can think for themselves. To declare them children does them a disservice and robs them of their autonomy

Segregation in the United States lasted long enough for separate dialects of English to form.

dude, european jews were segregated so long that new languages formed

You don't have to let them in unless they have a judicial warrant

I've actually heard some transphobes say that hysterectomies should be banned because the uterus is a vital organ that women need to survive

Yes it's awesome and sexy. Don't be a weenie.

Does every post you make need to have some random-ass image

The term is "intersex" (which covers a broad range of sex variation including "true hermaphroditism" though the term hermaphrodite is considered offensive when applied to a human). Typically intersex people are assigned either male or female at birth. If they are born with ambiguous genitalia, they are given surgery as infants to make them match their assigned sex (which has many negative side effects such as scarring, sterility, pain during urination/sex, and gender dysphoria). They may also be forced onto hormones to make them go through the "correct" puberty. Conservatives are generally in support of this practice, and laws that have been passed against trans healthcare have contained exceptions to allow for nonconsensual procedures on intersex children

Hentai is just drawn porn. Not all of it is rape stuff, and there's loads of rape/incest/abuse roleplay in live action porn too.

No it isn't. Cats are domesticated. They have no natural habitat because they aren't wild animals.

this is kind of ridiculous. do you realize how broad a term "disability" is? my parents have poor eyesight and need glasses. are they bad people for having kids when they knew we would inherit that?

"Not understanding other people's feelings" is called lacking empathy, which is a common autism symptom. I'm saying this because it seems like you might be confusing "empathy" with caring about people, a misconception which harms people who lack empathy.

I've seen white europeans be like "I've never encountered any racism in europe!" Well that is because you are white

Sex is a lot more complicated than male/female. There's a bunch of different sex characteristics that make up "sex" and people can have all sorts of different combinations of them. If you just use a male/female binary, that doesn't tell people what sex characteristic you're referring to. Maybe something affects people based on chromosones, in which case people who are xy but otherwise "female" (like with cais) would go in the "male" category and vice versa. Or maybe something affects people based on hormones, in which case transgender people taking hrt would have to be categorized based on that. If you say "male/female", no one knows if you're talking about hormones, or genitals, or chromosones, or gonads, or whatever else, so it's best to be specific and use language like "people with [body part]"

And if you are disruptive, they diagnose you with odd and beat you to make you shut up. You can't win

People with vaginas is the right terminology if discussing something that pertains to vaginas. Eg. "People with vaginas should make sure to see a gynecologist regularly." in this case, saying "women" would exclude/misgender many trans and intersex people who have vaginas but are not women, while also including some women who do not have vaginas and would not need to see a gynecologist

Suicide forums are really a symptom of a much bigger issue about how we as a society talk about suicide. Banning them really won't help

I hope the grandfather has his kids and grandkids deported and never gets to see them ever again. He fucking deserves it.

you want innocent children to be punished for something their grandfather did?
