My idea is that stories that we then hear and see and interneralize—and wear hats from and come to conventions about...

“Homosexual” is not preferred nomenclature these days. I suspect it was added to the algorithm for locking/deleting posts.

Hey Mark I’m posting the same picture on Gawker and for some reason it is blurring it out. Is this because Gawker automatically censors posts about gay people?

She’s smiling because she thinks he’s bullshitting her. Watch the last 20 seconds of the video. He goes from full on bawling to ‘ahem what charges...’ really quick.

This could be an epiphany moment for him.

This is risk-benefit analysis not a scientific thesis. The burden of proof is different. We know that placing MTF individuals in men’s prison is highly likely to result in sexual assault.

Cue a chorus of “I fully support her BUT....” Maybe because she sounds like less of a victim and more of a stalker/emotional abuser?

Do you think people with Aspergers are intellectually disabled? The clients I work with are considered to be legally responsible for themselves (they regularly get convicted of shoplifting, vandalism, etc, just thesame as anyone else). Some of them get charged with disorderly conduct or simple assault for violating…
