That and other dictionary definitions reflect the common use of the word, as many tend to conflate sex and gender, but also show the primary definition as being a different phenomenon to sex.

They were actually never synonyms. Gender used to be a grammatical term, and was broadened in the 1950s to be a separate term from sex, usually referring to a person’s own internal sense of being male, female, both, none etc.

I judge by how people treat each other and not what the person they decide to fuck or marry looks like.

Actually, ‘sexual racism’ appears to pretty closely associated with holding more general racist attitudes. So it does make a difference.

You’re obviously just biased because you’re mad about caramel and work for Cadbury, KaramelloKoala.

It is a distinct possibility that he may be punking you in order to get you to try it.

Yeah, I also want to try it but at the same time I don’t want to be stuck with a whole block of that stuff.

It’s still a far, far better idea than the Cadbury Vegemite caramel chocolate that is a real thing that exists now.

I think it means you get two mini squeeze packs of tomato sauce included with the pizza.

Ugh, that guy is the worst. He's so obsessive and persistent about it too. I've seen him on both io9 and Kotaku, on different posts which I'm pretty sure were at least a year apart.

I have actually never been there either! But I know of its reputation as one of the more diverse cities in the world (yay, legacy of colonialism), which is why I was surprised that you thought being a WOC might make you stand out.

Haha you know London is incredibly diverse, right? I think it actually became more POC than white people proportionally recently. I guess it will depend what area you go to but from what I know of London I doubt you'll stand out.

As long as you manage to avoid the horrible bogans/yobbos. Those guys suck and are super embarrassing to run into overseas.

Musn't have heard a Chav/cockney accent then.

Dont worry, psychopath and sociopath are two different words for the exact same thing.

Look, it's not a massive deal, but I really think it's worth the minor effort to look into what the best way to put these things are, considering how the misgendering and erasure of trans folks is still so common.

You said

Just FYI, calling someone 'a transgender' is weird in the same way that calling someone 'a gay' would be. Usually the terminology is 'a trans/transgender person'.

Well low fat stuff does tend to be shitty in that there is usually a whole lot of extra sugar and salt to make up for the missing fat, so no argument there.

Yes you can, the difference isn't even noticable most of the time.
