Only if followed by a comma, as far as I'm aware.

You should capitalise the first letter of a sentence, and end your sentence with a full-stop (in America, it's also known as a period).

Glass houses, throwing stones, all that.

Says the burner who starts his sentence with a conjunction.

I have a feeling I'm giving your intellect too much credit

Oh, I'm sorry, was I supposed to take that seriously? I stopped when you compared calling out appropriation to "false rape claims".

Too long; didn't read.

It doesn't - it drowns out other voices. Just like everyone acted like Miley made twerking a "thing" when it had been a "thing" for years.

Regardless, I think we can both agree that how that period of is portrayed in modern culture should be a matter for Egyptians to decide, right?

I was curious, since everyone around here thinks they know who is offended and why they should be. Turns out they're mostly dead wrong on that, go figure, huh? Sure some people will be I guess, but not all

Oh, so you "have a black friend". Go on, tell me more. While you're at it, take another sociologically-incorrect swipe at a culture to which you don't belong - you're last one gave me a good chuckle.

Oh noes! White people can't whitewash other cultures anymore! Such a shame white people have no culture themselves to fall back on during these tough times.

Psshhh yeah, pop music is soooo lame-stream, amirite? I only listen to the digestive sounds of Eastern Caucasus mountain elk (transmitted directly into my brain via electrodes because I want to hear it even before my own eardrums do).

Because the Daily Mail basically pre-writes stories like this for maximum click-bait-iness - all a Jez author has to do is paraphrase it and add a new stock photo.

I don't have anything to add - you've put into words everything that disturbed me about this saga, and raised some issues about how I react to trans stories/people/concepts (in terms of trying to relate them to a "binary" that isn't really fair or relevant). I just want to say a big "thank you" for writing this - I
