Well then you should be concerned that trans people are bullying other trans people. And if you haven't, you should read Julia Serano.

Additionally, this past year the organization "Queers for Economic Justice" shut it's doors because it couldn't support itself. The organization was anti-capitalist, and was also (in my opinion) anti-Semitic as it supported "Israeli Apartheid" bullshit. So essentially, this organization created its own demies. Why…
Who just focuses on marriage equality? Maybe you are the one who needs to pull your head out of your ass and start looking beyond mainstream media headlines. I say this as someone who works with "trans people of color who are trying to pass" that have been bullied by people with your attitude because they aspire to…
you don't get it.
That was sooooo long. I just posted w/o editing. Can't go back to this convo again. —Peace
Okay...men in America who are accused of rape constantly try to use "I didn't know it was rape" as a defense. Does this make them any less complicit, if they actually engaged in the act of raping a woman? Does this give Americans as a society any less of a responsibility to educate our children in sexual…
You are being condescending. Do you really think men are dumb enough to not realize that rape is wrong? Rape being wrong is not culturally relative. If it was, women would not be stoned after they were raped. Do you really believe that people in "third world" countries are that stupid? It is not that men do not…

How do you feel about Ayaan Hirsi Ali? I believe that she does make vast generalizations about Islam, which may or may not be considered offensive, but I also believe that anyone who tries to call her Islamophobic—being that Hirsi Ali was raised Muslim, suffered from FGM, is under a Fatwa for making a film about…
I thought this article was about women who are subject to FGM in the US? If so, they are definitely worthy of our protective services. This is not only their human right, but their rights as residents of the US (because you don't have to be a citizen for law enforcement to apply to you).
Great. Let's make it about the Jews! Why? If 90% of people in a given country (Ethiopia, the only country where there are actual practicing Jews left because the rest have been forced to leave by Islamic fundamentalists—previous jews were in libya, morocco, algeria, egypt, liberia, tunisia but they all reside in…
You might feel this way now...and then one day you'll need a lawyer.
Unfortunately "unattractive people" are not a protected class in the eyes of the law.
But that's neither here nor there. Disparate treatment in Employment works both ways (i.e., what some people call "reverse racism" is actually a legitimate reason for a suit). In many jurisdictions age discrimination is considered for anyone 18 or older (if someone says you are too young vs. "not experienced" enough…
Yup. Was just going to say this. Being a Jew, [me as a Jew, not all Jews] I do not identify with the monolithic "white" culture. On the exterior I may 'pass' and I recognize how beneficial that is, but my psychological identity, personality, sociology has shaped the way I see the world and treat other people. When…
