EP 130: Katie Herzog: Unblocked and Recorded 

Recently Tomi Lauren interviewed Blaire - just from the thumbnail, you can see the difference. They wear the same center-part long hair, and the side by side comparison reveals the difference in their head-shape.

Yeah, it's easy to forget relative stature over zoom and social media. Some of the most telling pictures I've seen are trans ID men and trans ID women in group pictures together.

Blaire White did an interview with Buck Angel where they sat in the same room together, and neither of them passed in the presence of each other. Blaire was enormous in comparison to Buck, and it was unmistakable that Blaire was a super effeminate gay man who'd had tons of plastic surgery and that Buck was an elderly lesbian with masculine facial hair.

I once looked up physical stats on E Page who is a man because she's attracted to women.... No red flags there. She's the height and weight of an average 13-yr-old boy. Which means including a bunch of pre-pubescent ones. I'm an average height male which means I'm taller than 98%+ women. I can't remember ever working with a woman my height let alone taller. This year in a new job will be the first time I'm working with a "woman" who towers over me. I saw this "woman" a few times a few months ago aggressively shouting and swearing at children. I genuinely just thought he liked heavy metal music with his straggly thinning hair and thigh high boots and black nail polish. I'm genuinely more feminine than him. I have absolutely no chance of ever "respecting pronouns" all year even if I ignored my actual teaching responsibilities to the children and focused on him. There is simply nothing about him that makes me think "woman" even if he has gotten tits paid for by Spanish healthcare while women are on waiting lists for all kinds of procedures.

Exactly. And even if they did--after you know how Dylan mocked women with his "days of girlhood, how can you say that after his "amazing" surgeries he is now a "she"? It is a religion of Katie Herzog--once you "accept Jesus" i.e. do surgeries and "pass" in highly edited selfies, you become a woman. Yeah, right.

Of course, pronouns are socially negotiated. There are lots of Cissy boys whose friends refer to as she as a sign of recognition and affection for that person. Emily Howard is a prime example of someone desperately trying to impose pronouns as evidence she controls other's perceptions of her (masking?) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-G5ykpBEy95I.htmlsi=D87mGT4YsviPLR2G

It’s interesting that announcing pronouns is a demand to control how you are talked about when you’re not present. Ie ‘my name is X and I want you to speak Y way about me when I walk away’.

100%

I have the same feeling especially as someone fluent I Spanish. Why don't they claim gendered adjectives instead? I spoke to one "non-binary" (written in English because in Spanish you immediately have to gender it) Spanish person who put English pronouns in her profile and was utterly defeated when I asked why she didn't put them in Spanish. She thought it to be ludicrous to use ellos/ellas/"elles". She literally hadn't thought about it other than to announce it to the world as if anyone cared. I think there must be a link to the concept where ppl assume others are talking about them far more than they actually are (Can't remember the name/study). It seems inherently self-centred and to show a lack of empathy to others to dictate pronouns. These are the same ppl who will refuse to budge when someone says I don't like Latinx or Cis. I've also shown that every time someone says "respect pronouns" they're hypocritical. They just have a different line in the sand which usually doesn't extend to neopronouns. But getting them to realize it's not a respect/don't respect binary is impossible. They think in black and white.

as well s the term she used "Respecting Pronouns." I can understand "using" preferred pronouns in public (I wouldn't do it, but I can understand those who want or need to do it), but "respecting?" This is how we got into this hole, by thinking that absolutely everything and everyone "deserves respect." No. Some deserve a good doze of shaming!

Yes, that Mr. Erica Anderson is a ghoul in a wig, and I will correctly sex him as "he" until he stops being delusional that he's entitled to the honorific "she." Pronouns are rohypnol and both Anderson and Herzog are groomers.

They want all the attention on them. They’re narcissists.

No man ever passes as a woman. Not when you see them in person. Not if you're a woman. As a woman, our survival and safety depends on being able to tell men (potentially a physical violence and sexual assault risk) and women apart. It happens completely unconsciously.

If you point out that at age 6 months babies differentiate males and females by face alone (minus hair) you get called a transphobe. It's an innate ability in tons of animals because it keeps us alive as males are more dangerous. (it's actually really interesting that babies can differentiate between other faces of other species and hear sounds that adults can't and then specialize but because we can't get past basic biology of two sexes this whole world is closed off to them) It seems incredibly destructive to me that some ppl feel guilt about their ability to do something. It feels a bit like when ppl overcompensate about noticing someone's race. If you tell me that you are entirely colourblind to race then I'm more suspicious of you than saying yeah I notice it but I don't judge ppl on it. I get the same kind of white saviour noble savage vibes about some of the "allies" when they talk about trans and "cis".

I say it. If you are reading this and have not said it, please start. We need to rip off the gag.

Yes, most people do not pass! I am bisexual and I simply tell the truth- I like people for who they are, not their sex…and yet I do not find delusion or rubbing away from who you are attractive in the slightest. It’s nothing to do with gender and everything to do with most of these folks being in the middle of a very disruptive process that does not leave space in their lives for reciprocal relationships

Running ❤️

Exactly right. Men in dresses often behave disgustingly in women’s spaces just to upset and intimidate young girls and women. These men’s sexual fetishes are similar to a peeping tom’s. Before men and boys were suddenly allowed to walk around nude in front of little children and women in our private spaces, I used to think the majority of men actually cared about our privacy and safety. I was very mistaken. Most men now are more worried about hurting the feelings of a guy in a dress than the danger and discomfort that guy poses to his wife, daughter or mother. Women now recognize that we cannot rely on men for our protection because women’s rights have been stripped from us in broad daylight.

That seems like a wise approach as a parent. I'm sure your child will appreciate your respectful guidance later on. 🙂

I don't think "they" is middle of the road. It's as incorrect as using "he" instead of she. How does it help your daughter see the reality of her being female? Sorry, I don't mean to be harsh. We all do the best we can but I think "they" is a dangerous lie.

@@CCL-ew7plI’m British by birth, born in London’s East End and lived in Surrey until I migrated to Australia. I use ‘they’ as a singular pronoun. Always have done. It was common usage when I was a kid in the 1950s, still was when I left England in my 30s and is still used by many people - including me, at age 76 - here in Australia.

@kyoglesage The author says she is using "nonbinary/they /them to be middle of the road". It's not the same as referring to a random person you don't know as "they" because you have no information about their sex.

@@CCL-ew7pl Exactly - the poster has totally missed your point. To me, there is no difference between using he or they pronouns as both are illogical and incorrect. Parents should be speaking biological truth, reality to their children. Using wrong sex pronouns or 'they' is not a neutral act.

Yes, the guest was talking a lot of bs, but the hosts seemes grounded as always, just very polite. And as you say, politeness got us into this shit.

Yeah Katie is always disappointing unfortunately.

Katie wants to play both sides but definitely isn’t as cringe as Jesse…

I stopped listening to Katie a while ago and decided to give her one more try because of my admiration for Stella & Sasha. Unfortunately I was as disappointed this time as in the past. Does anyone else find Katie quite condescending?

@@msaveourgirls9068 Ugh!

I think this is a HUGE factor that rarely gets addressed. My generation (millennials) and younger seem to have a huge case of Peter Pan syndrome where they can't accept the human condition and find any amount of responsibility burdensome. A lot of the trans stuff seems like a coping mechanism to delay or pause having to take an adult role in society.

Check out Episode 42 where we talk about this exact issue! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0nQ2e2km7xE.htmlsi=7IvdYlvYJSX-Q6wL

@@lorblauh not surprizing considering gen z were the first where a majority of them as children spent much of their playtime in online or video gaming where one can play as any sex, any character, can regenerate at the touch of a button, etc. The player is disconnected from reality. Specifically, but not exclusively from their own and others bodies. Another difference is that gaming is a type of play that continues on, well into adulthood now, and in online gaming platforms, children and adults play and talk to each other. The infantalizing of adults has also been increasingly promoted and supported by popular culture.

I added my five cents here on the use of the word "queer." It is unacceptable to use "queer" as a synonym or substitute for "gay."

Interestingly the "pink blue binary" as it has recently been used, culturally in the west to denote sex, was the opposite historically.

The non binary label is silly, though, as an identifier. “Woman” and “man” and “boy” and “girl” are important categories for us and are directly related to sex but removed of gender expression. A man can be however feminine or masculine as he feels is truly himself and woman can be however masculine or feminine as she wishes. You can only be “non-binary” if you accept the co-opted redefinitions of man and woman. Even then, however, I’d argue that the new definition which is propagated largely by Judith Butler and her acolytes does not make sense

Spoken like a truly unhappy person

A lesbian attracted to a masc woman is easy to understand..it’s because the woman still retains the essential quality that inspires attraction…being a woman … Not all lesbians are attracted strictly to femininity as a construct, but to women…who are all feminine by definition, though they perform femininity (the social behaviors women are socialized into) to different degrees

I weighed in on "queer" and asked that they not use it as a synonym or substitute for "gay." I am a man who happens to be gay. It's deeply offensive to call me "queer." Not because it's formerly an insult word, but because the "queer" ideology is so toxic and people who call themselves queer are generally disagreeable wankers.

I think there's an argument for saying that the issue you're raising is already happening with affirmative care. "Children know who they are" "Child-led" "Children can give informed consent" Combine that with creeps like Jeffrey Marsh or "sex ed" where children are taught it's normal to speak to adults about masturbation or sexual themes plus letting males into female spaces and we are creating the breeding grounds not only for sexual predators but for their defence and blaming the victims.

100%. I'm a beautiful, slender 25 year old woman trapped in the body of a short, plump 49 year old woman. When I was in my 30's and just starting to visibly age, several of the women I worked with who were around 50 said to me that the worst thing about getting older was the jarring experience they had every time they looked in the mirror and saw an ageing/middle aged face looking back at them. Now I've got there, I agree 100%

@chrisullman7285 - that's a good point. I think that as we age physically our sense of who we are doesn't always catch up. This means that some of us will indeed feel like a 17 year old trapped in a 70 year old body. I used to look after a woman who was 104 years old and she told me she felt about 35. As I age I know what she meant; perhaps we stick at an age we were comfortable with.

I'm a gay male. I can see how women can be beautiful, but never attractive. And I can't really see how any mutilated person can be beautiful or attractive.

Yet KH says as a lesbian she is, or can see herself be, attracted to female impersonator Janet Mock more than to a woman impersonating a man. There is just something f-ing twisted about KH publicly proclaiming this.

I briefly dated a guy who I worked with (yes, I know. Big mistake) who later "came out as a trans woman." As he began dressing as a woman and taking hormones, his body began to feminize just enough that I as a heterosexual woman lost my previous attraction to him. He was just womanly enough to not be attractive to me, but there was no way in hell that any of the lesbians at work would have found him attractive or considered him as a partner. He had made himself unattractive to everyone except possibly bisexual women(????)

It's probably because black people won't stand for white people colonizing and erasing their identity, and (at least within the black community) black people have both the power to resist and the complete disinterest in being accepting. Meanwhile women (at least white women) can easily be bullied into accepting their colonization and erasure by men, because they're raised to want men to like them.

That book was a scam

it is obvious - but the empathy is their favorite weapon....it is a 99% regret rate... sex lobotomies for kids - end times. Atheists better figure things out, quickly.

Absolutely. I got the impression Katie bought in a whole lot in the gender nonsense. Why should anybody alter their body or interfere with his/her hormonal make up to match some "personality traits"?! It's just cazy.

You’re not totally alone! Found this episode extremely difficult to finish due to the guest.

@@msaveourgirls9068 It is not even her opinions, as I'm totally okay with different opinions and discourse, but I can't believe this woman is 40! She sounds straight out of uni narcissist. Why is everyone fawning over her, including Sasha and Stella (from the UK, errr Ireland)? Is she considered to be a "higher tier?" Dear Stella and Sasha--she is not. You two are quality. KH nothing compared to you. Don't fall for the woke ideology.

Well said, and many LGBs agree w/ you and esp. about indoctrinating kids w/ the 'gender identity' nonsense and promoting 'transitioning.' I have been saying for a long time that the heterosexual male cross-dressers, autogynephiles/transvestic fetishists, men w/ paraphilias, have been the main ones pushing the 'trans' agenda.

Thanks for your comment!

While some blocking out of traumatic memories may very well be a natural response, the repressed memory scandal referred to in this episode was very extreme and of a much different scale. It had to do with impressionable people getting convinced that things happened to them that were later proven to be impossible. Highly recommend Episode 4 of Things Fell Apart by Jon Ronson.

I don't think that anybody who has significant experience working with adult survivors of sexual abuse trauma would disagree with you. It is absolutely real. I had a client who had no memories at all until the age of 8, when her mother came home early and found her father in her bed raping her. He was convicted and went to prison for raping her. There was DNA evidence. She has no memory of it. I could give a lot of examples. That said, it is not difficult to create memories in children through suggestion, and people have absolutely been convicted of crimes that provably never happened because of that.

I do the same thing, for exactly the same reason, because to me it's not over clarifying, it's clarifying :)

@sarah_gene - perhaps it depends on how well you know someone, but my brother has about 8 friends with the same name as him. They differentiate by adding characteristics (not all of them exactly pc) such as angry, musical, big, small etc. As for how you differentiate casual acquaintances I'm not sure but I don't see the need for pronouns - in fact that feels rude to me - don't call me she/her please - call me the mad, short fat one instead - lol.

a good therapist should never suggest anything - just asking questions about your relationship with your Dad is not the same as suggesting he did something bad to you. Unfortunately, there are bad therapists who do make suggestions and push clients towards stuff because they have an obsession. It's called post hoc rationalisation and it's how conspiracy theories operate; you begin with your answer and then work backwards. If you believe that all neuroses are caused by X then you will find X in all of your clients' memory banks. However, I know that human beings constantly forget and then remember things - it's how our memories work - so it is absolutely possible to bury bad memories and then have them resurface later on.

We have a variety of playlists that might be helpful depending on what aspect of this you want to share with friends. But having a "start here" playlist is a great idea so we'll work on that!

Western culture is very narcissistic. It is a protective and flawed personality trait stemming from the decline of society.

Excellent point! Some of these psychology channels also host weird video titles like "how to manipulate your manipulative narcissist abuser, parent, boss, child etc" which also seems really unhealthy.

Domestic violence expert Lundy Bancroft has a great piece about Narcissists vs. Abusers on his blog. I think it's just outstanding.

@@Gingerblaze yes, yes, yes. I noticed that, and talking to people in the comments section I kept getting the feeling that they were the narcissist: I mean why would you want to torture someone even if they are a narcissist - they cannot help who/what they are after all. However, that doesn't mean there aren't narcissists out there or that victims need help to identify them and learn how to protect themselves. But when you hear people talking about controlling a narcissist the red flag should defo go up.

--- """It would be nice to see people actually start speaking up since "pronouns" are all around abusive to all parties.""" --- """ The demanded pronouns thing is abusive to/by both parties; the demand is controlling, and appeasement is not inherently good, its a form of manipulation or fallacy. Pronouns are a referential linguistic construct, not an inherent part of someone... just be who you are, and people will have their references naturally. The "preferred" and demanding pronouns has only had me seen people feel jaded and deceived and not only changed their minds back, but since the social/cultural "sex/gender split" was made taboo for entwining it completely with sex and exploiting the polite word use and corporate stereotypes they've gone with that as confirmation and hard-set to biological sex only and strictly. (And this is where you get the word games and changing definitions arbitrarily and not explaining or more precise.) """ """ A "pronouns" comment commented around elsewhere, but it's related so this is a copy/paste. ------- "Pronouns" are abusive -- "faux-kindness" in appeasing the demands of someone and they their demands should be appeased for the sake of not caring, but having authority approved, the look of, or rhetoric of "kindness." This does not help their own internal struggle, internalizing of others words, or their projection of perception. They will continue to ruminate subconsciously, then when not appeased they have an emotional 'melt-down' as their internal rumination will avalanche with it. You can see this "faux-kindness" with lots of things; people will willfully back abusers and exploiters of guidelines and "codes of conduct" (which encourage exploitation by providing unquestionable protection rather than reason and investigation), and "trust the experts/"science"." This particular exploit, I expect is fairly reliant on English... And their "was" a natural shift towards using "they" singular and dropping the reference, along with heavy usage of it as the possessive, "their/theirs." This however, is not tied to the Cathedral's intersectional/marxist theories to co-op and misrepresent things for their exploitation. ( --[redacted]-- , and the whole thing is a corporatized bureaucratic fraud making use of abusers, exploiters, and frauds to facilitate for them. Assigning such to "represent" manufactured and co-oped demographics, silencing and enslaving them.) It was not really part of, but fit better with the taboo/verboten "sex/gender split" they've stolen concepts from twist into structurally requiring its own opposition of the prior cultural marketing stereotypes and basic objective concepts. As hinted, the dropping aligned with a degree of lazyiness and spoken language, the references not being needed/useful, and the occasion want for obfuscation/neutral (particularly in literature -- "he/she" is odd and suspicious, nor good as dialog, and no one likes "it" despite being also technically correct -- having a perception of an object. ) While masculine pronouns double and neutral in English, it is quite obvious this has an issue when it is likely to be assumed the reference is conveying information as usual. Pronouns are a gendered referential linguistic construct. The common usage for this has been to reference the sex of the subject being referenced. However; anything could reasonable be referenced from sex, gender, a quality, name, aura, actions, personality, occupation, what they are, etc... A reference is not and cannot be an inherent quality of someone/something (abstract models are not "things"). Thus, no one has pronouns. (There's a interesting thing to be said of the silly "neo-pronoun" thing, but I'll leave that.) Ex. Occupation/What they are has been a thing; that is, the reference is the gender of the occupation or word to define what they are. For a forced English example, as if things like chef, teacher, painter were gendered still as other languages. Something interesting is the personification of other animals and things. It's not uncommon for people to name and refer to animals and pets without care for what sex they are -- what they look like, feel like, or just have they feel themselves. When most personify objects, you have people assigning a sex along with the personification and then referring to that. Possibly where such an object would fit their relationship structure and how they think about it. And yhea, I'm going "blah blah blah," about academic nonsense... This is the kind of thing twisted and misrepresented, which would otherwise benefit the 'normal' understanding (like the "sex/gender split") -- How to keep things and fix or remove old corporate cultural marketing or odd/weird circumstances. Also is specifically against the abusive "affirming tolerance," such is specifically understanding and has no more tolerance than inherent per the principle of "freedom of speech." Which aids in not attaching words of others to oneself. """ On the topic of "rights" and linguistic games: 1. Semantics, "[blank] rights are human rights" is the wrong order. This order implies that human rights is a collection of different rights and where they do and don't over lap (think stereotypical venn-diagram), rather than rights being universal from our humanity and how they bare differently in context. This therefore implies a right to imposition where they don't overlap. The proper and correct order would be "'human' rights are [blank] rights" validating that rights are universal from our humanity, and despite differences in how they bare they originate from a shared universal right. (think one circle encompasses all others) This semantic ploy can be taken as a tell phrase, like the word "equity" can be taken as a tell that you're dealing with. 2. A quote of that restated/explained in words rather than semantic correction. "[W]hen distinct from," There are no 'distinct from' rights, not women's or otherwise. """ There is only natural universal "human" rights, not segregated privileges. I am not particularly interested, regardless of how good or meaningful anyone is or from where or fighting from what, if they're going to continue the use of that divisive rhetoric and semantics to position it as segregated privileges. "Oh, but things of different..." No, nothing is different, any variance is still founded from the exact same right, for the same reason, and means. And the focus on solely identity of interest itself promulgates this segregation into privileges, not rights, as such they are treated and envisioned as a unique privilege for identity/group and not understanding of the right for why and universal protection. """ On Identity : """ But identification is external; a mode of observation for categorization. An identity would be ones entire collection of perceived identities; those a collection of perceived and measurable qualities. Characteristics which are not perceptible to others, but could be self categorized are not sufficient for an identity as they cannot be identified, only asserted. Similarly, asserting against perception or choice of perception for sake of speech, as most speech is referential. Hence; a complete tyrant over others. It's not that weird that it would be "subjective" but boxed into an inherent characteristic; subjective encourages to be a tyrant, but within the tyrannical authority of the "group" or owner of the group.

In many elementary schools, only mtf trans identifying children are allowed to use the girls lavatory and changerooms. Ftm students are given access to change in either the girls or a seperate staff washroom.

If women have to accept that there are butch lesbians in our bathrooms, and that womanhood is a broad tent, don't you think that men are required to do the same? And IDT that men have the evolutionary fight/flight/freeze response when they see a woman in their single-sex space. They might be annoyed, or have another reaction, but their inborn, inescapable sense of being in extreme personal danger would not be triggered in the same way as, say, if a huge guy walked in. Plus, men are genereally standing up and fully clothed, whereas women are often sitting down and partially disrobed and not in a position to even run, let alone defend ourselves against an evolutionarily perceived threat. So the comparison isn't the same.

@@Gingerblaze Yes, because of the real reality of sexual assault/rape. Not because the boys would be upset.

@@BelissaCohen Exactly.

I agree. I am very let down by her half-assed analysis and breezy acceptance of total nonsense. So many issues with this interview.

Where is the evidence that Kinsey was a child molestor?

@@BelissaCohen I was appalled as well. I have a very long list of issues. It was unbearable that Sasha and Stella were just letting this happen.

I couldn't believe she was still using the term, and not once, but twice in the interview, as some kind of a badge of honour. At 40 you might expect someone to outgrow labels, ESPECIALLY when they are attached to something so vile and evil.

I couldn't believe she used the term, knowing about Kinsey and his "data." If she knows, shame on her. If she doesn't know, shame on her. "Very dubious" is an understatemen!

This journalist doesn't seem to fact check.

@@badgerravens408 - maybe she just misspoke? Since we don't generally take a puppy away from its mother until 8 or 10 weeks the decision wouldn't need to be made would it?

Well, that cafe owner was wrong to put up that sign. Men who dress as women are still men. Women do not want men in their toilets. For such obvious reasons I am not going to go into. Those men need to use the men’s toilets. It is not up to women to accommodate cross-dressing men.

Yes, that part of the discussion was really interesting--that sexual orientation is a male paradigm. Twin studies have shown that sexual orientation isn't in the DNA--twins with identical DNA don't always have the same sexual orientation. That doesn't mean people don't EXPERIENCE their orientation as innate. I was hoping that it would be discovered how sexual orientation is developed in my lifetime, but in the current climate I don't think it will be.

No it is, people have studied the brains of hetero, gay and bi people, and found differences in all of them, as well as even cognitive function and differences in reaction to hormones in sweats, it is definitely a born this way / brain thing. Gender dysphoria is a mental disorder. People just don't want to say it isn't. There are inherent differences between genders as well.

​@@BelissaCohenit's not that's just how it's always been, studies on women's different sexual orientation show us clear differences between if they are straight, gay or bi just like men. Identical twins don't mean 100% the same including if they have the same orientation or not.

It is definitely a born this way or Brain thing, studies have found differences between hetero, gay or bi people brain, as well as even cognitive function or in reaction to hormones in sweat. Studies on female sexuality with more advancements techniques instead of traditional ones have found differences just like with men. People know men are inherently more likely to commit crimes and are more aggressive that's always been known that's never been a debate.

Actual trans or gender dysphoria occurs because something is going on with the brain, go check out the person Buck Angel for more information.

It isn't easy to please everyone

It was infuriating, painful to listen to. Captured language througout.

Thanks, Hanna. Katie Herzog is treading that knife edge of "being kind" while not being realistic about the harms the sex modification ideology causes to all of the rest of society. The most recent demonstration of this is the discussion between Norwegian detransitioner, Alexander L and British detransitioner Ritchie Herron on Alexander L RU-vid channel. They discuss how it does not work to take testosterone to replace what castration did to their bodies. Why? Because the penile material, now inserted as a tube internally in the groin area (so called vaginoplasty) will react the way the penis did, which is to stiffen as for an erection. Except it's now internal. They both have problems walking, hiking, urinating and they will deal with this for the rest of their lives, which might be shortened because of the iatrogenic harm. Katie Herzog needs new glasses, and perhaps, hearing aids. But then, she's a captured journalist, just like Jesse Singal, claiming to be "objective." Never reporting on the suicides of trans widows, the attempted suicides of the children of men who now say they are 'mother" also, or recognizing the huge lost time to actual academics in schools from early childhood through high school. Get real. Really.@@badgerravens408

Agreed. I really like Katie and enjoy her Blocked and Reported podcast, but the one thing that really irks me is her and her co-host Jesse Singal are pretty married to the usage of preferred pronouns, especially the "they/them" one when they're uncertain of the preferred pronoun but they do know the sex.

Raw but calm honesty is the best path. Think about the woman, so overweight she didn't know she was at the end of a pregnancy, taking the T because she thinks that stuff, and the hospitcal staff obeyed "pronouns" so they lost the baby. A baby died. It might have already had a damaged heart from the T in utero. Think, everyone. @@arryospeedwagon

Isle of Lewis, 2003. A lot of people charged, one committed suicide while waiting for trial, case completely dropped later, and as it turns out it all happened because Child Services workers went to a SRA presentation by an American fundamentalist preacher.

Don't dig too deep--you disagree, because she is catering to the woke ideology and thus engages in doublethink. Enjoy the outside!

@@badgerravens408 That would also be my intuitive response. However, having read Jonathan Haidt's 'The Righteous Mind', I am more inclined to do the digging anyway. It's also good exercise, if one employs good technique.

@@juvenalsdad4175 I haven't read this book yet, it is on my list. I do agree--digging can be fun.

oh really? GREAT! I listened to the audio while driving and I couldn't believe Stella was taking this BS! It was painful to listen to. I felt very slightly vindicated when Stella corrected her about Ireland. I wish she said something about "cis", but I wonder if both Sasha and Stella were taken aback. Katie Herzog at 40 sounds like a narcissistic 20 year old compared to Stella, who is so wise and insightful.

her using the term "respect" with pronouns was infuriating. Use preferred pronouns, if you want or have to, but when she says she "respects" them, it is jus another level of woke indoctrination.

Men never mature!!!!😂

Covid drugs weren’t experimental. They were part of a technology that had been worked on for some years and needed little alteration to be used as an effective prophylactic against a disease that killed some people quickly and has left thousands with chronic disease. All medical treatments carry risk. Aspirin, for example, used frequently by millions of people can cause havoc with the lining of the stomach. The risk from Covid significantly outweighs the risk of vaccination. The data showed - and continue to show - this unequivocally.

If you raise rescues you ought to be aware of the importance of neutering - slowing down the number of dogs needing rescue! Not once, as a menopausal woman, was I disturbed by a dog’s intact junk except to think how lax and irresponsible its owner was. I assume your post was a joke; it certainly read like one.

I don't think it's about misandry (which is a nonsense concept anyway). I think it's about sensitivities due to it being a Jewish cultural practice (if you don't get a Moyal to circumcise your child, then they're not really Jewish. It's religious lore), and people not wanting to do anything that infringes on Jewish people's ability to practice their religion because of the holocaust. It should also be said that female circumcision is very very much objectively worse then male circumcision. And the people who practice female circumcision are African and Muslim, and western society is racist and Islamophobic and has no problem criticizing and legislating against their cultural practices. So, to me it looks a lot like Islamophobia, racism, and sensitivites around Judaism due to the holocaust then "misandry". Also, misogyny = women being raped, murdered, deprived of education, paid less, passed over for promotion, and discriminated against due to their sex. Misandry = men's fee fee's being hurt by women objecting to all the above, so excuse me if I don't give a rat's a** about your misandry problem.
