I’ve heard the argument that a lot of the issues with Paul comes down to translation issues:

UGH NO. I HAVE REALLY ENJOYED SHERMAN ALEXIE AS A WRITER. WHY. WHY IS EVERY MAN TRASH.

A chromosomal check. I wonder which bathroom the people with Turner Syndrome, Klinefelter Syndrome, XYY Syndrome, Triple X Syndrome, Perrault Syndrome, de la Chapelle Syndrome, Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, and all other various permutations of mosaicism, intersexuality, or gonadal dysgenesis that can result in…
