I'm certainly fine with it. I've never had respect for the concept of law, in itself. Law is really just a collective opinion backed by weapons. Don't ever be fooled by thinking that law is anything beyond "might makes right." Just because something is legal, doesn't make it right. And just because something is illegal, doesn't make it wrong. I subscribe to a standard that is completely outside the standards of the state. Where that standard and the state's laws agree, I'm happy to cooperate. Where that standard and the state's laws disagree, then the state becomes irrelevant. "When injustice becomes law, rebellion becomes duty." That's why the state should never be granted a monopoly on violence by creating a disarmed population, and its power should be curtailed as much as possible. -

Sorry to press this point @CairennTairisiu, but *is* there any evidence for your claims about the San Diego hospital? -

@kat2 Sounds like an awful experience! I've never had something like that happen to me, but then I also haven't dated much. My GF was my first relationship ever...I had zero experience for the first 25 years of my life. I was pretty careful with dating her, and I made her take it slower than she would have liked. I know I couldn't endure a breakup or relationship loss, so I insisted that if she wanted me, she had to commit to keeping me forever. I was very fortunate because through her, I found my forever family with GF, husband, and 3 other female partners. But yeah, sometimes girls can be aggressive. I'm a bonus step-parent to our family's kids.... it is amazing at times how snide and catty young girls can be. I doubt it improves with age. GF especially can have a really bad attitude at times, and say things that I wish she wouldn't. And sometimes she just assumes she can do something with me, when she ought to ask. We've argued about clothing. She'll buy something and just try to put it on me, especially female underwear. She's actually tried to wrestle it onto me before, but without success because I squirm and nip a bit. -

This past Saturday was a girl's day out for me and in addition to being out and about, it gave me the opportunity to try another new foundation. This time it was Revlon Colorstay Full Cover Creme. This would be my second attempt to replace my old go to L'Oreal foundation. Bottom line up front, I like this new foundation a lot. There's virtually no smell and it goes on and blends really nicely. The other positive is that it covers really well. It took only two very light applications to achieve full cover which in my case meant it had to cover a light to moderate beard shadow. Since this was a creme foundation, I set it first with translucent powder. The powder step really prepares my face for powder blush, which doesn't go on very well applied directly to a creme foundation. After my blush and eye shadow was done, I set everything with setting spray. I wore the makeup all-day, about 11-hours in all, and it looked as good late in the day as it did just after applying it. I didn't notice any creasing or breakdowns anywhere on my face. The product isn't cakey or heavy feeling. Needless to say, I think I've found my replacement foundation. I'll buy several tubes just in case this foundation goes the way of so many others - discontinued. I hope not, but always better to plan ahead. -

I've kinda been on the edge of it most of my life. But I've mostly managed to stay out of jail… barely. I've heard it's hard on trans women. -

Ivy, I'm okay with that. I have always wanted to be a pirate and I think an "outlaw" and a pirate have lots of similarities. -

As AllieJ notes, this neural network was trained to look at entire brains, not at individual specific structures in the brain which have been linked to sexual orientation and gender identity. This sort of analysis has been attempted before to discredit the neurological hypothesis about trans people and it shares the same failing. Yet, as repeated instances of the original Zhou et al., studies have shown, the BSTc is reliably different in most gay and transgender people (and different in different ways so that, for example, gay men are not the same as trans women). All that this study does is confirm that there's no differences on the macro level between, say, trans women's brains and cisgender men's brains. But the devil is in the details. -

@kat2 I can respect exactly where you are coming from with your feelings towards women, I’m sorry you endured so much trauma and had so many bad experiences with them as well. It just goes to show you that all circumstances and experiences are different for everyone. As well as how an individual handles and manages traumatic situations. I am so sorry again about your experiences and I pray that on day a genuine and nutritious woman may come into your life and change you outlook a little bit. I’m happy that you have done what it takes to keep yourself safe and happy after all the trauma you’ve experienced. Blessings and Hugs, Silas -

I suppose i should put my hand up and say i have had very bad experiences around women, I have had several boyfriends date wise, but women just assume and grab. Ist bad experience, i bought a white lycra dress and silver G string, i was trying my dress on and Debra looked at me and said, your not wearing that! you will be flat on your back in less than five minutes, a gang of us went out for the night in one club i went to the toilet and a girl pulled me to the ground and bit my butt really hard she tried to rip my top too, Joyce came running in and decked her, Debra didnt help when she said I would have to go to hospital for a tetanus jab,I said if you think i am going to A and E with teeth marks in my butt! Another bad experience was when i took an overdose i was taken to hospital by ambulance and my eyes came across a bull dog -lesbian-, she looked at me and said at the top of her voice, did you intend to kill yourself? I said no, she let me know she was in charge blood samples taken I was then hooked up to a machine when the machine finished, my body went into shock and neck swollen up i saw everyone rush towards me, next minute when i came round the bull dog was back again, she said bet you wont do that again, i thought callous bxxxxd I was then put in an observation room with you know who at her desk in front of me I got up and started to go toward the toilet, when I was told get back in your bed, i was then escorted to the toilet and had to use it with the door open. A few years later my best friend Debra had a son and I used to babysit, i loved him to bits, Debra came home at three in the morning with her boyfriend went upstairs and i drifted off to sleep, next minute Debra was stood right in front of me naked, i was shocked she said would you like to join us, i felt physically sick, grabbed my coat and never spoke to her again, all my boyfriends have never just grabbed at me yet i suffered nothing but from women, I wouldnt mind but Debra knew i had had several boyfriends, she even tried to pinch Joe off me women are very bitchy too -

Dress codes are probably on the way next. I've realized that we are going to be essentially outlaws pretty soon.
