The only person for who this course is truly useful is Dreadlocks McGee up there who is teaching it.

So you’re saying that 46% of the population who doesn’t suffer from “this” refers to the claim that 46% of the population is not trans or LGBTQ?

I think they already answered this somewhere in this thread.

The person stated that “46% of the country doesn’t suffer from this mental illness”. That’s not referring to being trans, since the entire LGBTQ community is 10-15% of the population at most. That does match the ranges I have seen for the incidence of mental illness in LGBTQ communities.

I doubt they’d be still supporting their bathroom bans if trans people were to start relieving themselves in public where there are no bathrooms.

The one thing this course isn’t is liberal arts.

It’s not hateful to point out that the LGBTQ community has significantly higher rates of mental illness than the general population. This is a well known fact in the medical community, and it’s important to recognize it so that people receive appropriate care.

Dude, I literally linked to a video of Cecile Richards doing expressly what the IRS says she’s not supposed to be doing and you’re calling me illiterate? Cecile Richards is not a separate entity from PP when she’s speaking for the organization at an event specifically designed to interview her on this subject.

Cecile Richards is the CEO of PP, not of the PP PAC.

As CEO, she endorsed Hillary Clinton (and had her daughter work for Hillary’s campaign, to boot but let’s leave that aside).

Here she is expressly endorsing Hillary, speaking not as a private citizen but as CEO of PP saying that Hillary is a better candidate than…

Couldn’t they have compromised by mandating that every establishment that is legally required to have a public bathroom needs to build a unisex one? That makes everyone satisfied, especially bathroom construction fitters.

I think he’s saying that Obama is sick with Kenyan disease and a sprinkle of Muslim flu.

Allegedly he went to Tufts and did his residency at Lenox Hill. So remember that when you want to take a jab at Tufts.

Wisconsin is a fantastic school and I often relied on public course info from their profs back in the day whe MIT open courses were just getting started. I am surprised their deans allowed this course to stand.

Blackness does not refer to systematic oppression of other people? Really? You might want to talk to some Africans about that, and what Africa was like before parts of Africa were colonized by the Europeans, or what India was like before the British came along.

So Rachel Dolezal’s problem was that she didn’t go to Harvard or Northwestern and didn’t produce rap? Had she just done those things, you’d be okay with her?

Step 4: Smoke weed with Rachel Dolezal and then go back to Step 1.

Aww, the angy lady card. How very cute and not all sexist.

Maybe if you spent less time drinking and not getting D+ in your classes, you’d be able to engage in rational discussions instead of saying outrageously dumb things and then walking away when you’re called out on them.

This is not about the recipients of structural favoritism at all, but nice straw man, I guess. I guess it’s comforting for you to have such a facile world view where every failure is attributed solely to structural favoritism from whitey.

It’s not referring to an immutable physical trait, and neither are those either titles.

Are you really trying to say that the “problem of blackness” or “the problem of Islam” is not a legitimate way to examine what’s the matter with black people or Muslims? Before you scream at me, yes there is something the matter…
