The white women comment that others also responded negatively too. We can talk about traditionally marginalized groups in a way that doesnt continue to marginalize other groups. White women obviously dont face discrimination bc of their race, but pretending they dont face marginalization and are only just now becoming…

I would agree that there is no need or an asterisk as you say if we were talking about one marginalized group speaking to a group that is wholly privileged when that is not the case. I have very little sympathy for outraged white women who are just shocked that black people dont fall over themselves with thank yous…

If the normal sentence for a crime like robbery was say 5 years. And then you robbed someone and got sentenced to 35 years, in large part because someone famous had just gotten off scot free for robbery, wouldnt you think it was unfair? Most people are arguing for reasonable sentencing and respecting human rights.…

We generally frown on violating constitutional rights.

The problem is that Europe can sell to us based on what they approve of just as anyone else can. Death with dignity has some traction in Europe, so you could find a supplier maybe (although theres shortages there too). The same is not true of the death penalty and we wouldnt be able to lie or something like that for…

Not appeals, although that would buy him some time. The bigger issue is supply. Europe no longer will supply us the drugs needed. We cant make them at home because pharmacist organizations do not support their members dispensing and compounding those drugs, not to mention that it would be a fairly dangerous job even…

If the nominee has a soul (so this is all hypothetical of course), we could shame them into resigning or shame their boss into pressuring them into resigning. Cant do anything else.

My opinion is less “find a gentler way to say that” and more “make sure you’re not doing the same thing the group you criticize is”. Maybe its unfair, but i feel that we have more of a responsibility not to step on the toes of other marginalized groups.

I think its a divide between expectations. On one hand, you have people who basically think we should put out the most obvious fires first (something widereaching and nearly every woman will expereience like the issues surrounding womens health, while on the other you have people saying “this doesnt affect as many…

Many of the women attending this march have been doing this for awhile if theyre alright with publicly protesting. Also, theyre largely Hillary supporters i assume, so im not sure whats to be gained by criticizing politically concious women who did everything they could to prevent Trump (until they do something worthy…

“Its the belief that you can put them in their place.” THIS.

The best part is complaining about how a gay woman handles homophobia she encounters. Somehow, I think shes got this one.

Jusr reading the name “follow me” got that song stuck in my head. You seem nice and all, so im sorry about this, but we have to be mortal enemies now.

YES. I loved Will! He was my favorite.

Agreed. Everytime someone replies to him i think my eyes will roll out of my head. Remember what George Carlin said about arguing with idiots, people!

My understanding is as long as its intended to inspire terror, it counts. So if theres some sick fuck out there who targets schools, popular clubs, churches, a state legislature etc with the intent to scare people, theyd count because theyre specufically acting to make people afraid no matter where they are.

What he said is true of Christianity as well, isnt it? At least in my church we were taught that people are the church, not the building itself, the idea being that people would rally around a church member who got into a car accident or who was taking care of a sick relative the same way you would show up if the…

Absolutely. i belong to a lgbt group at my medical university and we talk about everything from safe sex to avoiding misgendering to getting out info about safe providers to provider bias to trying to balance how important their lgbt status is to the problem at hand (balance the need to screen for cervical cancer for…

Lol, sorry. I’m bad at words. Phone typing isnt my atrong suit.

Currently doctors receive about 5 hours of educatiOn on LGBT patients (which is a joke because most of it revolves around HIV training because only gay people get HIV amirite), nine of which focuses on trans patients as far as i know. Other Health professional programs get less (my program has 2 and this is the…
