  1. UN: LGBTQ Equality In America "Not Within Reach"

    This does nothing to establish that gender is an invalid term. Our point of contention is whether or not sex and gender are different. Therefore the existence of the word sex does nothing to refute the term gender. Sex refers to the biological and gender refers to the sociocultural. The...

    Haha he would annoy me in other ways. OH did he ever. But, nah, it was all in fun. Haha fair enough. I think this past week I had 3 or 4 failed attempts at coffee making. Mostly boil the jug, forget I boiled it until hours later. Then wonder where my coffee is.

    Hahaha he surprisingly never did. This was about a decade or so ago now. Still friends with him, although we talk less since he moved to Australia. You are so very welcome! :hug: Bahaha, I didn't even think of that as a possibility before reading your reply. To be so focused. You have the mind...

    My work has been quite inconsistent with offering shifts. They seem to go through phases when they will or won't allow it. I was declined the first time I requested it. Which might have been Karma, since when a friend was pressured into doing ten hour shifts I was giving him updates on his first...

  5. UN: LGBTQ Equality In America "Not Within Reach"

    You have yet to establish why it is an invalid term. Gender is a term which is widely used within popular and academic culture. As I have mentioned numerous times it is used during cross cultural and historical analysis. Most ethnographies and social research makes at least some mention of...

    There were the few exceptions. Funnily enough one of my favourite members on DGEmu was one that I clashed with the most in debates. But he developed and explained the reasoning behind his stances so well. So even if I didn't agree with him. I respected him a lot. He was really hard to debate...

    I have never been a member on a forum where they pay you directly for posting. The closest I have been has been on forums where they indirectly do it, by using their own forum currency. I have also been a staff member on two of them, Roliana and DGEmu. Roliana was a forum inspired by Gaiaonline...

    Capitalism is all about the pursuit and expansion of capital. Agreed that profit maximization is greatly valued under capitalism. Regardless of the social, environmental and cultural devastation that it leaves in its wake. As much as possible these costs will be externalized so that those who...

  11. UN: LGBTQ Equality In America "Not Within Reach"

    The sociocultural is by definition socially and culturally constructed. This applies too all of the sociocultural, not just gender. I am glad you agree that gender is socially and culturally constructed. We have one point of agreement now. Are you seriously arguing that we can not change our...

    Yep! It is a distribution center. So shifts can be like this. I at least get the three days off. Due to our staffing levels some do these hours, through OT, and still work 5 days. I was talking to a pharmacist online and they can do 20 hour shifts. She said she worked weekends but had Monday...

    It is because I am rostered for four days a week and one of them is only and 8 hour shift. This way I can get my 40 hours still while also having 3 consecutive days off. It is how I can study part-time while working. Although these past two weeks the wheels have fallen off the wagon. So need to...

    I am at work. 2 hours down and 9 to go. 😅😅 How about yourself?

    No, I am thinking of capitalism. It is a system which prioritizes the logics of capital and the pursuit of ever increasing profits over everything else. It is the framework through which it gives value and meaning to everything. Communism is very critical of this approach to life. It is a human...

  16. UN: LGBTQ Equality In America "Not Within Reach"

    Within the same post you got my stance apparently and then lost it moments later. I haven't exactly been hiding it. My stance is simply that the sociocultural and biological are not the same thing. That gender refers to the sociocultural dimensions of it and sex refers to the biological. You...

    You are confusing communism for capitalism. Capitalism is the one that holds a person's worth is tied to the value they produce for capital.

  18. First game u remember playing?

    I think it was Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle. Only played it really briefly at my cousins' house when I was little.

  19. Is being funny a natural ability?

    No, it is a supernatural ability.

    A lot of Native Americans had different understandings and interpretations of gender. I wouldn't be surprised if some are/were near him as well.
