Well, the law is the law, so if any aspiring PharmD candidate is interested in passing their boards in AZ, moving to Scottsdale, getting a job at the Walgreen’s closest to a ritzy gated retirement community (the kind with a 1:1 Lexus-to-golf cart ratio), refuse to fill heart/pain/diabetes/boner scripts for uppity Baby…

Right? Transfer that to any other situation. Bookstore employee who sells law books goes to the court and starts dictating what laws should be invoked. Imagine a vegetarian cashier at a grocery store refusing to sell meat because they think the meat industry is immoral and the customer should eat more vegetables…

Eagerly awaiting the outpouring of conservative and legislative support for a vegan supermarket checkout clerk refusing to ring up a customer’s purchase of hamburger meat, or for a devout Muslim taxi driver refusing to transport a customer carrying a bottle of alcohol.  After all, if “ethical or moral reasons” are a…

This pharmacist should be fucking fired. I’m so sick of this “conscience clause” bullshit.

1. That pharmacist is an asshole. 2. He’s not a doctor, he has no business deciding what medications people take or don’t take. 3. Why become a pharmacist if you have objections to certain prescriptions? If I claimed I wouldn’t do some part of my job because I didn’t feel like it, my boss would rightly tell me to stop…

Fuck him and his unwillingness to follow the law. Refer it to another pharmacist on site in a timely manner or do your damn job. I’d love to be morally opposed to my actual job duties and be able to still get paid for not doing them.

I would really like to stress that in 1997 this movie was completely groundbreaking in how it dealt with Brandon’s death and story. Hillary Swank was known, but not well known. For the time, this was a huge risk for any actor. To judge how people handled it back then by today’s standards isn’t really fair, and it does…

So I guess TERF is just a meaningless slur now. Since apparently it encompasses both radical feminists on the left who have a problem with the underlying extreme misogyny driving young women, girls really, to reject femaleness as a reaction to realizing the nature of our patriarchal society; and conservatives who…

Well in fairness, Kelly and Miller can’t really go out in the sunlight safely, on account of them being vampires who feast on the blood of young children.....speaking of which, that’s probably why they’re taking the children away. They require lots of blood sacrifices

The irony of her dining at a “Mexican” restaurant is mind-blowing.

I find it interesting you are getting friction from others for your point of view. It seems pretty common sense. If a journalist reached out to me and started a conversation with something similar (for example, “Why do you have these dumbass beliefs?”), I would likely not respond. And then if they did that a bunch…

We’re going to have to agree to disagree on this one.

I think the piece is good because while it’s ostensibly about trans people, it’s really about gender, period. Our medical, cultural, social, etc understanding of that concept is evolving, and sometimes it’s the people who don’t fit neatly into one category all their life (trans, cis) whose stories can be most…

I can tell you that these comments are helpful. I’m an onlooker who is interested in the public discussion about trans people in as much as it raises a lot of questions about social categories in general, especially since I grew up very much as a tomboy, and don’t fit so many typical feminine roles (and feel more and…

I don’t accept that someone who has not yet reached puberty can know with any certainty whether they are or are not trans. And because of that, I think erring on the side of caution is warranted. While I am sure it’s frustrating for that 6' trans woman who will never pass, I can’t help but think it would be…

TLDR: “I’m trans and I am threatened by the existence of de-transitioned people because my identity is so fragile it cannot withstand any scrutiny”.

My useless .02 would be they are a bunch of children who are figuring out who and what they are in the world, and without bullshit fundamentalism getting in the way of questioning gender/sexuality they have been freed to figure their shit out without having to hide feelings.

That didn’t happen because they didn’t want to know Singal’s deal, they wanted to write an outrage piece.

Adults should be free to make whatever modifications to their bodies they desire.

Did you really expect Singal or their reps to speak with you given the way you approached the matter?
