I remember when Bill Nye was The Science Guy.

And it sounds like they changed the policy.  And did this woman ever do that to anyone as far as you know?  Anger much?

Another excellent effort, Drew!  How the hell am I in the grays again?  I even bought and read The Hike :)

When I help friends and acquaintances with personal finance and get them to start tracking their spending (generally using Mint), one thing I have them do (and which I do myself) specific to eating is to differentiate when they are eating out because they wanted to go to a certain place (“Restaurants” category) versus…

I think this is really great information. Some friendships can fade as our lives change, and so I do believe (if friendships are important to a person) that there is a need to keep one’s mind open to new ones, including fostering them as mentioned in this article. Some of my closest friends I met at my local coffee…

Why is almost all this drama driven by trans-women and not by trans-men?  Thoughts?

Why do people think that “having the right policies” (read: “free stuff”) matters if they are policies that will never be passed through Congress? I guess for me, President has always been more about our face to the world (which improved GREATLY with Obama), while also having enough charisma to be able to move…

Saying “I just feel this way” with no corresponding evidence as to WHY does not in any way help someone else to understand your position.

It’s not a matter of having slight advantages; it is a matter of having advantages that no XX biological female can come close to matching no matter how hard they try.

Welcome! I actually do free personal finance “classes” (I mean, I DO give them “assignments”) for friends and acquaintances and often use links from this column to illuminate various things. I look forward to seeing what you have to say.

I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic.

Actually, no. Did you know that the NBA, NFL, NHL and MLB are not “men’s leagues”? They are OPEN, and any woman good enough can play.  And yet none have yet.  Hmmm.

Yes, but not the best athletes in the world, which in the 800, are all men.  What part of this is a mystery to you?

Please take some time to look up ranges of testosterone in men and women; you seem to think that the curves overlap in some way, when they are separated by an order of magnitude.

Define “gender” in your context.  Do you mean biological sex, gender identity, gender expression, or some combination or something completely different?

I’m glad someone else noticed that.  What a sad pivot.

Well, “myopic” is certainly spot on.

Because the effect of testosterone is so large and affects the entire body, unlike a swimmer just having longer arms than another swimmer. Otherwise, why not just not have male and female divisions at all and let everyone compete together? That would not go well :(

Lifelong Bruins fan who grew up in New England, and I would fine with a suspension.  Be competitive, yes, but don’t constantly be a dick.

You know it’s vote pandering when even Don Lemons and Jake Tapper go “WTF?” about having felons still incarcerated be able to vote.
