Is gender a social construct?

Geez louise, with the transition between the two posts I almost fell off my chair.

Same here :lol2: There may in fact be a niche in the market to corner: ISIS should defo roll out some jihadi make-up tutorials because this bloke (or girl! I did NOT just assume genders!) really failed at it :lol:

Well, you have to seriously question the conscience of such "parents". I think the simple answer is likely that they don't really care and might even enjoy exposing their children to something like that, because they themselves are perverts. I can't think of any sane reason why any normal person could do that to their child, even if they are supporters of "LGBT". In a sane country the parents in questions would have to be closely investigated by childcare professionals right away for the safety of the kids.

Or maybe they just have taken in the postmodernist-everyone is equal-propaganda. You know, "it's good to expose your child to different lifestyles in order to reduce discrimination". It may start with telling your children about LGBT people, explaining them that everyone has equal rights, then you may take them to a relatively harmless "equality parade" or something, and overtime, before you know it, you are in the middle of such a pervert "gay pride" thing and normalize it by telling yourself that "everyone has their right to free expression of their sexual identity" and so on. A ponerization process. It's kind of hard to get out of this slow-cooking mess even if you still have some instincts left that tell you something is "off". It would need a major wake-up call and dismantling of deeply-ingrained belief systems.

Either way, such parents either have no conscience, or it is dying a slow death.
 
I'm really beginning to think that we are dealing with different types of "human beings". It's like the discussion on the topic of Flat Earth believers. Start here: https://cassiopaea.org/forum/index.php/topic,39366.msg725633.html#msg725633 for the last few posts that really make ya go "huh?"

Yes. Either way the children are the ones that need protection there, even if the parents are well meaning and just have slipped into that dangerous dynamic over time. No excuse for such child abuse.

This was a passing thought for me much earlier in this thread. The more bizarre fluid gender types seem to have the same... I have a loss for words... Sort of strictly materialist view combined with a huge belief in their immediate experience that coalesces around one single "fact."

Grossly speculating here, but...

A flat-earther just can't seem to go beyond the fact, that when he walks down the road, the earth seems flat. That is his immediate, superficial experience and then add to that a sort of obsession on this one single idea.

For the... Uhh... Could we say "militantly gender fluid?" Their immediate experience is their public image and their associated feelings centered on the concept of "gender fluidity."

Just as the former simply can't understand any higher order arguments about the curvature of the earth (god... it feels funny to type that line), the latter simply can't understand an argument like the shear impracticality of 500 legally observed genders.

Given how bizarre and surreal our world is, I wouldn't be surprised. Everytime you think we hit the bottom of the absurd, there's something even stranger that appears.

From the Pine Ridge native american reservation, Pearl and Russell Means
have a word or two to say about gender roles:


Hmm... some things he says I agree with, but the part about men never outgrowing their childhood and the kind of complete dependency on women for nurturing may be a bit off the mark.

In this part that you mentionned, it's my thinking too. It depends about a lot of things, and it's too much simple
to pass it as a general fact.
And since Russell started to speak, in this context of time in his personal life, what the most he said was more about his own
emotions, his own story with Pearl.
I even think that it's a kind of tribute and legacy that he gave and let to his wife, before to go.(1939/2012)
Normally he always weared long hair, and it was not a good sign that it was cut.

And were else would you find these "types" who's motivational drive is for power, in the front lines of this gender fluidity movement. I think because postmodernism has such a powerful grip in our generation, there is an absence of a retaliatory reaction from the dumbed down masses(especially the scholarly populations). It's similar to how in certain police forces you will find many pathological individuals who gravitate to positions of power, no one is there to punish the punishers.

If you watch these activists it becomes obvious that they are down right brutal and insane. And with post modernism acting as a blanket of safety in an PC environment they can do whatever they want and be empowered as they are able to plow through any obstacles(sane people) they see. And slowly it's becoming legislated! Loads to look forwards too :barf:

More deviancy creeping up and into the mainstream...

Cynthia McKinney tweeted this today:

'Hollywood trying to normalize the totally abnormal...'
https://twitter.com/cynthiamckinney/status/893634919246811140

Which links to a UK Daily Star article (careful going there to read it - the page is plastered with celebrity porn _http://www.dailystar.co.uk/movies/634917/Robert-Pattinson-Good-Time-film-2017-pleasuring-dog):

Actor Robert Pattinson 'asked to perform sex act on a dog' for latest film

...where it says:‌

"[Pattinson] told [interviewer] Jimmy [Kimmel] that his character in the film, Corey, has an affinity with dogs as he thinks he was one in a previous life.‌ ‌He said: 'He thinks he has control over animals and stuff.'"‌

Notice that the creators of this movie - whether or not their intention is to rationalize or normalize bestiality - touched on an idea of ours for why veganism took off in recent decades.
