  • Sea lioning is when you relentlessly pursue someone for evidence. I am not asking for evidence, I am asking what you are talking about in the first place. How am I supposed to understand what you are talking about if you aren’t willing to explain?

    I gave a quick look into it and it seems it has nothing to do with lesbians or women in general, but is a law effecting everyone that some facilities and police officers have abused in potentially illegal ways. If what I am reading is correct this is a serious problem, but has not much in particular to do with what you are talking about. From what I can see it’s an issue to do with ableism, not homophobia or sexism. So you must clearly know something I don’t, or are just trying to waste both of our time.

    Who do you think “my type” is exactly? Why do you think I have to be your enemy? You talk about engaging in good faith, while doing the exact opposite. All I asked is for an explanation, which would be simple and easy to do, and I may well even agree with whatever it is you are referring to. Instead you play mind games and try to be insulting. If you actually want to get people on your side this isn’t how you do it.


  • I mean yeah, your being deliberately obtuse and rude for no reason, even though what you are talking about only applies to a certain geopolitical area. You’re literally expecting me and everyone else to have knowledge of something even though there is not reason anyone outside the USA or California should know about it. You’re also relying on implications, which isn’t great when half the people on this site are autistic including yours truly. It’s like if I expected you to know what a Pacer train is and what it implies about the state of rail transportation in northern england. Like what you don’t live in England and have an interest in trains?

    These are all good points but they also apply to alcohol which is a hard drug and a teratogen (causes birth defects). I suspect that people would throw a hissy fit if this was suggested, yet it actually makes perfect logical sense. If meth comes with birth control then all known teratogenic recreational drugs should come with birth control, as no one should be consuming them while pregnant.









  • This is a rather bizarre response to come up with. First I am not an incel, that’s a right wing ideology I don’t subscribe to. I mean some of the concepts they use don’t even make sense statistically - like they are logically impossible. I digress.

    Women make up more than half the population. Sexism wouldn’t have been as big of a problem and still wouldn’t be as big of a problem if women didn’t perpetuate it too. Just look at the trad wife movement or modern women who despise feminism, or like any women’s beauty standards, or the whole thing about matching outfits, etc. All of these are forms of sexism that men just don’t engage in to nearly the extent women do. Purity tests for butch lesbians and trans girls is another one. At least you can argue that men also do that, but they aren’t the ones kicking women out of bathrooms.

    Absolutely toxic masculinity is a problem largeley caused by men, but that’s not the fault of the individual. Like I didn’t decide that boys don’t cry. Plenty of women too help perpetuate and reinforce these ideas by doing things like breaking up with men who show any vulnerability. There is a reason why gay men are better at this.

    As for the whole thing of slipping further away from feminine qualities - you do know not all past societies were more feminine, right? Have you heard of ancient Greece? You do realize feminism has made large strides at addressing much of these issues? Like this all used to be much worse, things have been progressively changing for the better and still are in most places. It’s only the USA that seems to have taken a nosedive recently. Even that is a push back against broader change.
