I would argue it’s more like the difference between reading a book and watching a stage play of the same story. The difference is level of literacy. At a certain point, you learn the language well enough to be able to use your imagination to create the color of the story for you as more than just words (notes) on the page. Up until then you might know what the word is, what it means, and even how to speak it out loud, but it could be difficult to internalize how that word fits in with the work as a whole.
For those who haven’t honed that skill or haven’t had the opportunity, however, are best served with a performance of the work. There is no shame in this. Experiencing a performance can be just as beautiful, maybe even more than what your imagination creates frome what’s on the page with facets you hadn’t even considered in your own interpretation, but making that interpretation is a skill, just like literary analysis.

I’m pretty sure it’s because they started off said discussion by suggesting that everyone who liked the story and dialogue had a traumatic brain injury lol. Very civil, that.

Pardon, what? Not saying you’re wrong but this sounds like something that can’t be proved. I would love a source if you don’t mind!

Yes, you probably could make access to those mutually exclusive, but why would they want to when the point IS blocking access to both? They might not say it outright, but there’s a reason they call it TERF Island and it ain’t because they love the LGBT community. This regressive view also goes hand in hand with villifying sex ed in general and it’s easy for them to correlate it without saying the quiet part out loud.
All this to say I and many, many people don’t trust the government to not abuse this and limit legitimate, lifesaving resources from being found by those that need them most.
Your intentions are good faith. The reality is that the government rarely does us the same favor nowadays.

Unfortunately for some, that pressure is real and entirely illogical. For the longest time my wife would start getting anxious and frustrated when someone tailgated her and would start to speed up… Only to contue getting tailgated by the same person. Took a lot of insistence from me to not play their stupid game for her to realize that not only was it stupid to speed up for them, but more dangerous and entirely illegal to start speeding just because of a tailgater.

What part of TERF ideology is actually feminist and not a thinly veiled mask for conservative-based gender essentialist ideology that feminism at its core has been fighting against since it’s inception, just this time aimed at trans women to protect “real women”?
I’m genuinely curious because all the advocacy I’ve seen from TERFS is all about demonizing transgender women, infantilizing transgender men and… Siding suspiciously often with conservatives more than their supposed ideological ancestors.

Then literally just say “could be better”. It’s the truth, and phrased in such a way that a stranger you’re exchanged pleasantries with doesn’t have to feel awkward about it.

Hell I live in an area that asks it as a greeting and I don’t lie. Sometimes I sugarcoat it with “could be better” but like, no one ever makes me feel like a dumbass for being honest.

Okay but what is good engagement against “follow the science” aside from “I literally DO the science”? Dr. McCreight offered a point and was met with “nuh uh” so at that point it can hardly be called an argument or debate. Do those fallacies honestly matter at that point when one refuses to engage with tangible points of discussion?
