"There are two things magic cannot do" Dumbledore gently told Harry. "Reverse death, and make someone another gender than what they were born as". Tears welled up in Harry's eyes as he finally accepted he would forever be a man while Dumbledore pulled on a pair of assless chaps for his evening at the club.
@@migueche20 yes, but for a perhaps different reason than one might expect. Gay jokes have become boring. It's really hard to milk the metrosexual hipster thing when it's the same joke every time.
@@projectstart5522 No, she didn't break a world record. She was nearly 10 seconds short of the world record. I feel like maybe you should like, google stuff?
@@ajk3914 I feel like you should maybe see the clear advantage of a literal man's body competing in women's sports. That there is a clear difference between men and women and that you can't simply change your sex willy nilly. The hormone your body naturally produces changes your bone and muscle density as well as many other things. Do you know why boys are so rambunctious and women are so emotional? Hormones. The effects of which are not changeable by swapping them out.
All jokes aside... Gender isn't an "Identity". Gender has always meant biological sex. And there's only 2. Our "gender" roles were determined by which sex is stronger. If women had been stronger, our roles would be "reversed". (it's all relative) If there's an alternative universe and they came here, just because they "identify" with the men here, doesn't mean they gotta change sex. Just like if we went to their universe and identified with the women, we wouldn't have to change sex either. We are who we are inside, not for what's outside. Our personality has nothing to do with our sex. It's all society and culture. Clothing isn't even gendered, but we associate certain types of clothing with either sex. So when a kid wears opposite clothing, there's literally nothing to it. You can't say "oh, i guess they're this gender then" because that's just putting your own rules of what a gender is "supposed" to wear.
OMG, was that a French & Saunders reference?? 👀👀 If so, you just made my millennium. 😍 BTW, bit jealous of ma' knocks, huh? Don't worry, mate - you'll get yours soon 👊👊
After all those years of gay jokes and the episode where Brian Griffin pukes for a solid minute after hooking up with Ida, this is the pot calling the kettle black.
@@arigoodfriend1762 transphobia isn't a thing for most people, tbh transgender a concept is new for almost everyone. You can't expect all people to immediately understand or be fine with it and just act like it's normal. On what OP is saying is kinda true, we and the media made jokes about transgenders all the time but when it became part of the political climate for some weird reason it became a sensitive issue.
@@icemouse9 Well, the only thing that Lockhart did was add a little flair to the stories in his books, because the actual action in them was done by other wizards. So, if you look at it, Lockhart is basically a plagiarist. But yes, his writting is quite decent to be able to sell a lot of books...
Actually, Darth Bane created the Rule of Two a millenia before Sidious, who was the culmination of Bane plans to destroy the Jedi and the Republic. Then again, this is all Legends info, so Disney might have scrapped the idea entirely.
@@gundamheavyarms4879 actually nowadays it's impossible to know what is legends because Disney takes random lore from it makes it canon but don't explain the details so everyone is left confused
This clip feels so much like the writers of the show were aware that J. K. Rowling was being criticized and felt the need to acknowledge it but didn't really have anything funny or insightful to say about it.
Even if you agree with Rowling's politics, can we at least agree that how she handled the houses is bad? Slytherin is literally just "the evil house" with nothing deeper despite how much she tried, and both Ravenclaw & Hufflepuff are ignored for no goddamn reason.
@@DTheAustralian I don’t think that was the case at all. There were plenty of great wizards who came out of Slytherin. I think that it’s a story told from the perspective of three Gryffindors so you hear the most about that house and their rivals with all the bias of a teenager with enemies.
Also, if we are talking about "bathroom bills"...the only example of anyone in the books creeping on anyone in the bathroom is Moaning Myrtle, a woman who was born that way, and creeps on boys in the boys bathroom 🤔
We're not. We're talking about the idea that society needs to conform to what people think they are, rather than what they are. It's interesting, though. I'm told I can't have an opinion about abortion because I'm a man - and as such - can't possibly comprehend a female perspective on the subject. Meanwhile, I'm told that there are thousands and thousands of other men who can understand the female mindset, in its entirety. Logical inconsistency is rampant in discussions about trans identity. That's why it always comes down to trying to shame people for disagreeing. If there was a solid argument to be made, it would have been by now.
@@TheCharleseye what argument is there to not lets people used the bathroom of their gender? There is no problem you go in a stall come out wash your hands and leave, any gendered person is capable of that.
@@TheCharleseye yk back in the day some people from caucuses had to conform with people with more melanin than them that they were actually people and you know NOT PROPERTY. Yk they started giving them ALMOST basic human rights and it all ended well. Still have a long way to go but I hops you know what I mean
@@TheCharleseye If I can try to provide the differing perspective - There are solid arguments without logical inconsistencies, but since this is now a culture war issue where absolutely everyone has an opinion, not everyone is educated on the topic or knows how to construct arguments like that. In my experience talking with people or reading the literature from the leading scholars in the field, the only time someone is ridiculed for disagreeing is when all scientific evidence is divulged and yet that person still disagrees. At that point, it's not about the facts. That person has some unresolved dislike of trans people that does not come from an objective perspective. As for the example in your first paragraph, there isn't an inconsistency. It's a common misunderstanding of the difference between biological sex and gender. No, it's not just snowflakes giving in to their feelings and disregarding facts. There have been quite a few studies (the most prominent from 2018, and a meta-analysis of all of them in the works) showing that the brain structures of trans individuals' is more aligned with their gender identity than what you typically see in cis individuals. Basically, biological men and women have different brain structures, but a trans person born as a biological man and identifying as a woman has a brain matching that of a cis woman. So it's more than just feelings, it has scientific evidence to support non-cis gender identity not being a decision. I don't agree that you can't have an opinion on abortion (or most subjects for that matter) because you're a man, but it's not an inconsistency to suggest a trans woman shares a closer perspective to a cis woman than a cis man.
@@TheCharleseye So what opinion would you have if an all women judicial system decided men should get snipped in order to keep from having unwanted kids? Would it be better if men suggested it? Because I highly doubt anyone would agree to enforce a law that affects them personally, especially when it comes to body mutilation.
Reminds me of that one post that went something like "imagine what name JK could have given Dumbledore if the idea of him being gay was something she set in the books instead of after them"
Actually in later seasons seth is more respectful to trans people such as in season 17 in the episode trans fat it explores Ida's past and also ida helps peter be a better man
@@d-logan5280 its called growing and learning. Stoo projecting your ignorance. Just because you are a bitter transphone does not mean other people can change for the better.
@@d-logan5280 There's a difference between poking jokes and actual transphobia. The episode you're talking about wasn't well-received due to some of the jokes being a little too mean-spirited but it definitely wasn't trying to be transphobic.
There have only ever been two genders. The ideology of "gendered souls" is a purely religious belief which has nothing at all to do with science or fact.
@@henrynelson9301 Never have I ever, imagined that the world would come down to "Citations?!" when saying there's men and women. In the last 10 years, my IQ has dropped from room temp to turnip. I'm sad.
Hasn't the sorting hat been in Family Guy before or am I thinking of a different show? I seem to remember the hat allocating someone to "housing for registered s...".
I know what they were trying to make fun of but that delivery wasn’t even clever They didn’t even properly set it up this is why family guy is getting stale
I thought “the next boy or girl, there are only those two” was a little funny lol. But yeah I don’t think it’s a secret family guy ain’t what it used to be
@@DeepFriedFrenz112 you’re missing the point it was a terrible set up, delivery, and punchline on family guy’s part I KNOW what they were trying to make fun of but it was utterly terrible the way they tried to make a joke
Yeah, it did! Oddly enough, he was originally intended to be cast as one of the ghosts at Hogwarts, but it never made it past early editing... but I think his scenes were filmed tho.
It's strange how many people had said for years that everything that JK Rowling did was great and her lessons were an inspiration to an entire generation. Then she said something that they disagree with and suddenly she's the one who's wrong to those same people.
Even better they don’t listen to what she has to say, just attack her for saying something different. Diversity isn’t really the lefts strong point tbh.
She is still an inspiration to people who aren't indoctrinated in to a cult. I don't even agree with her politically but JK Rowling fostered my love for reading and fantasy. Also her position is not even as radical as the Woke make it out to be and is the same as their attacks on Chapelle. They woefully misunderstand the position and ironically radicalize people more.
There were people who disagreed with her politics the whole time , and there’s also people who still support her to this day. You are expecting millions of people to have the same opinion about one person , that’s why you think there’s contradictions… when in reality it’s good that different people have different opinions , even if they’re all left wing, only cults have no disagreements .
@@TheFireFox36 I think it’s your side that “woefully misunderstands the position” of the people they praise. For example she said that anyone who has a penis and has committed sexual violence against a women is a man. But what your side took it to mean is people with penises who have committed sexual violence against a women should not be in women’s prisons. I agree that someone who has sexually assaulted any one should not be in a place with there favorite type of victim. But a person can be a piece of shit and still be trans.
@@giannipiccioni8411 honestly if I ever woke up as a woman I'm just going to act like myself. Mostly because I'm not mentally challenged and I'm actually comfortable with who I am.
As a man if I woke up as a woman I'd be horrified, but I wouldn't change who I am, I'd still be attracted to females and likely still act as a man, I guess I'd be a lesbian. But honestly it would probably cause me great confusion and mental unstablitiy to know I was born a man who against my will, without any understanding of how it happened woke up a woman.
@@giannipiccioni8411no you don't. You know what we call those kinds of women ? Tomboys. They may act like "males" but they are still women and they know that.
Fairly funny. Is there one where Peter Griffin mentions _American Dad_ ‘s Stan Smith getting roped into an Americanized _Monster Musume_ ‘s MON Squad; a Spec Ops/SWAT team training course consisting of monsters who’re as sentient as human beings (same species, just not Homo sapiens sapiens).

@@Aryan_homophobe exactly my point just beacuse some people incorrectly don't believe I trans people it doesn't change the realility they exist and are valided by science.
@@lemonlime8949 idk man, the qualified professionals that study these things say otherwise. And last I checked, their studies were peer-reviewed. Or do you think the American Medical Association, American Psychiatric Association, American academy of pediatrics, Endocrine society, American college of obstetricians and gynecologists, World Health Organisation, NHS, national association of Nurse practicioners, Mayo clinic, and thousands of individual doctors, hospitals, and universities all kinda just... made it up?
@@own4801 the definition of transgender is simply saying they don't identify with the sex/gender they were born as, that doesn't change the fact that what JK says is wrong considering they are still biologically the same gender with all the benefits of male hormones gives (like increase bone density / muscle mass) plus if they were really the other gender why would they need the prefix in the first place.
@@riotguards That's like saying if a short woman was really a woman, they wouldn't need the prefix in the first place. You appear to have not consulted the meaning of the word "transgender."
@@own4801 I literally just defined it, so why not define it yourself without resorting to "well it doesn't fit MY definition therefore i don't have to engage the rest of your argument" Also your example doesn't work as a heigh has no play in ones gender however by your logic a 4 foot person could identify as 6'11
@@riotguards Yeah, height has no play in ones gender. No, not by my logic a person could identify as 6'11. I don't know what you're talking about. The term "trans" is an adjective that can be used to provide an additional description on a particular woman. Same as "short" for some women. I am not referring to my own particular definition of transgender. I just mean what the word means.
@@anawilliams1332 I can call myself a woman and come into any space deemed woman only. Despite never doing anything to be a woman, or portray myself as one. I can go into your bathrooms. I can go into any space at all by just claiming, "I am female." And literally any man on Earth has the power to do so under the system these lunatics are trying to implement. Even sex offenders, and literal previously prosecuted rapists. If you seriously can't see any issue with this, then I wholly hope you suffer the consequences.
pretty sure it's the transphobes who target trans people :P last time i checked trans people just want equal rights and the ability to go about their day without people trying to invalidate them all the time
