Mostly because the best Teen Titans show—yep, Young Justice—has already been made. And then canceled.

That and maybe the circulatory system if that turned out necessary in some weird way. Gotta keep that bloodflow pumping, else you get braindeath and it's all a wash!

I'd drop everything but my brain in a heartbeat.

I am a huge Star Trek fan. Seen every episode of every series. The TNG timeline was basically the most robustly built alternate TV/Movie universe of all time. It was mismanaged from Voyager on, but it still remains some of the best TV of all time. Watch DS9 today, it is much more relevant now than in the 90s. Amazing

How I addressed that same disparity in my own mind (besides just dismissing the prequels as garbage) was that the prequels were set mainly in the "downtown" part of the galaxy and in peacetime, while the real movies were in the outskirts and front lines during wartime. In the heart of a vast galactic empire/republic

Their claws are very sharp, and their teeth are vicious.

heal the rift that was likely caused by her gender identity.

Cary Grant, who's first wife claims that he hit her?

Oh, FFS, it a damned courtship film. That's exactly the same BS the Duggars and fundamentalist Christians are buying into. No kissing, often no physical contact at all (the Duggars allowed side hugs; a lot of these courtship believers don't even allow that), parents have the final decision, etc.

I don't think the things we are each describing are mutually exclusive. Either way, I'm with the OP and her declaration of "NOPE."

I think that's code for "she's not interested but eventually gives in after he relentlessly pesters her."

chivalry makes a comeback

Whenever I read this kind of story, I think of all those folks that say "We don't need feminism, women have equality."

Calling it: Frustrated Housewife is actually a PUA believer who wrote in hoping for validation of his belief that women who want equality in relationships are actually pushing against thier natural urges, that what they all really want deep down is the kind of in-charge macho man that he tries so unsuccessfully to

I know a girl who uses those terms. She always describes herself as an alpha and how she can't get along with other alphas and how alphas don't like it when other alphas are in their territory and I'm just sitting there like, are you human beings or fucking tigers? What is all this nonsense?

Some people just need a boundary to chaffe against, or they can't tell the difference between content and annoyed. This time it's showing up as a feminist thing, but she sounds like her life is a Goldilocks situation.

Yes, definitely, those surgeries have devastating impacts on many people, though this case is particularly extreme. I know it's in vogue to demonize John Money, and he certainly deserves a lot of it, but John Colapinto (probably through Milton Diamond, whom I find obnoxious at best) uses him and the case of David
