I love meat too but at the same time it’s possible to buy Humane Certified (not perfect, but hardly as cruel as fur cages) and what we put in our bodies for vital nutrition is personal and medically individual. You just can’t say the same about fur.

We’ve been talking about it, Alessandro [Michele] and I, for a few months.

I agree with this 100 percent. While I agree with the author on her point, there was probably a better way to point this out. The nurse was just as mistreated whether or not comparisons to other cases can be made. A better approach would be a new article on past police brutality against black nurses, as a comparison…

Awful lot of people here who can’t read.

Looks great, I found mine, Radical Monarchs. My memory is crap LOL http://radicalmonarchs.org/about-us/

Radical Monarchs! I found it. http://radicalmonarchs.org/about-us/

It’s Radical Monarchs. Sorry, my brain is clearly mush. 🙂🙂 http://radicalmonarchs.org/about-us/

Thank you for the civil response. I do not think you’re a chauvinist, I do think this issue is complex physiology wise. I agree with that. My main point though is, it’s not the fault of trans girls that they’re born into a gender crisis. In their crucial years, I believe allowing them to be part of a team where they…

You’re acting as though this is all about individual sports, when in fact the article makes it clear this is also about teams. I never said they would lose every time, those are your words. And why would you underestimate young women so much that you’re insisting a girl could not **possibly win against those big,…

They “do”, but my point is, DID they? I’m talking 1970s here.

If you affirm trans people’s identities, you may be condemning ciswomen to just compete for second place if they’re competing against a transwoman.

Thanks for the info, it’s been a while since I was involved.

Thanks for the answer, I already know that group. The name is one that really stands out as poetic (and it’s one word).

Thank you, that’s what I thought. I’m a wee bit surprised that wasn’t clarified on Jezebel, since right before is the story about allowing girls into Boy Scout groups. Obviously trans children need to go where they feel correctly identified. End of story.

I support Roem a thousand percent. I have a severe sinus headache so forgive my confusion, but are we talking about allowing trans kids on those teams or simply making them co-ed? I do think co-ed teams make sense for adults but for some girls it is good to allow them to have separate teams and changing rooms (that…

Not only different activities but a completely different vibe. It’s not exactly girly-girly. But the GS sash in my closet has a sewing badge, a theater and fire-making badge. I bet boys didn’t have sewing and theater.

Some commenter recently told me the name of an absolutely beautiful alternative scouting organization, that is about inclusivity and racial diversity, social justice. The name sounded like it may have been from a pretty African word but isn’t necessarily. I would greatly appreciate if anyone knows. I do think this…

Sorry about this (now edited) comment. Kinda commenting is severely effed up and I wonder when anyone is going to do anything about it.

As the authority you claim to be (and I believe you); I think you should be ashamed of your apathy towards what is clearly a devastating environmental problem.

By “farmers” do you mean barely-paid farm workers who could be trained to do almost anything else, or do you mean the 8 year-old children taken from their families and given sickles to work 12 hour days with no water or food.
