    OK, I just lost another half an hour to arguing about it but no more. Go away, dozens of people spewing very basic mantras which don't relate to anything I have said. You're stuck on "Gender Ideology Speaking Points for Beginners: Lesson One" and I don't have time for it.https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/1054714047571116032 …

    No, I am not going to lose today to arguing about definitions of 'woman' and 'gender' in relation to trans issues. I co-wrote this piece on the subject which covers all I have to say about it. https://areomagazine.com/2017/09/27/an-argument-for-a-liberal-and-rational-approach-to-transgender-rights-and-inclusion/ …

        If you don't want people to comment on something you said on Twitter, then don't say it. In particular, don't say that you don't want to comment further on it as that is pure troll bait. p.s. gender is a technical term in grammar.

        Helen isn’t tired of people commenting on her tweets, she’s tired of explaining the same things over & over to people who aren’t interested in her actual POV in the first place. She is right to be so. Some people are pure time wasters. Discussion/dialogue is a two way street.

        Also, I am allowed to say I don't intend to talk about a subject any further because people are being annoying and trivial. Obviously I know that not talking about issues is a way not to have to engage with loons responding to them but so is ignoring and muting them.

        Chomsky always just says “refer to previous article”, and nothing else. Saves a lot of time.

        Some people (most, probably) don’t give a shit about gender, but they’re still feeling the societal pressures to use ‘correct’ pronouns and to pretend dudes are dudettes. Most probably think “do what you want, but leave me tf alone.”

        Most so-called allies are stuck at how much textbook smarter and theoretically more enlightened they are than who they choose as opponents, when they're still at the beginning of their moral development. And how stingy they so often are.

        Case in point. I just saw an episode of Netflix's Grace and Frankie. They talked about having a Gender Reveal Party after a pregnant woman got a sonogram. How does one tell gender from a sonogram? How do unborn babies exhibit gender? Or is the left misusing words? (They are.)
