Oh, it’s twue. It’s twue. It’s twue, it’s twue!

Jessica Jones is pretty strong. But you didn’t like Stranger Things so I don’t know what to think about you.

Yeah, it’s weak now. And the crazy climate change denying gizmodo crowd doesn’t help.

I live on io9. I just pop over here everyone once in a while for the smutty articles.

You’re awfully polite to be a randian nutjob. So perhaps you actually are ingenuous. HB really is beloved by people who think that any sort of regulation is the slippery slope to communism. You know: OSHA,the EPA,the IRS, the ADA. I expect that sort of thing over at gizmodo, but it could be you are innocents here at

Exactly. But you keep saying she clearly is one.

People with PCOS usually have hyperandrogenism. But not all people with hyperandrogenism have PCOS. Some, for instance them have testes.

So now I know you lack the ability to read.

It’s not an analog though. Harrison Bergeron is a favorite story of all sorts of Randian nutjobs because they think it proves their viewpoint correct. Bringing it up is the Libertarian equivalent to Godwin’s Law.

This is entirely ridiculous. So if I live my life and claim I weigh 120 lbs, I can box featherweight? It’s one thing to let people choose their bathroom. It’s quite another to let people decide what rules they’ll follow in a competition. No one is saying Caster cannot live as a woman. But she shouldn’t compete as one.

I’m entirely serious. You keep saying she’s not a man. You keep saying we can’t prove she isn’t a woman. Can you prove she is?

They drew a line. You happen to disagree with that line. Do you have a better one?

The IOC suspended that rule because they lost a court case. They are appealing. Does that sound like they agree?

How does one confirm one is a woman?

I think you need to rephrase that. The IAAF doesn’t do surgery. Those women chose to have the procedures done in the hope of meeting the new standard. But no one forced them.

You’re almost getting it. The other women are tested - they look for testosterone as part of PED testing. If you have high levels as a woman, you go in for further testing.

As I have now repeatedly quoted:

From an article written well before the olympics:

Yup. Just like the advantage most men have.
