Are you LGBT? Are you a PoC? Are you a Woman? No? Then your cis-straight white male OPINIONS *are* invalid! PS - It's not about YOU! https://twitter.com/CharlieJThomas/status/905171518778482690 …

How can the opinion of a white man on the experiences of, say, a black woman have merit. That's what Adrian is talking about?
-
There are times when personal experience alone is called for, yes, but X-splaining so seldom refers to this. More general ethics & opinions.
-
I can have an opinion on men's rights issues even tho I am not a man. I can engage with men's arguments on this & evaluate them.
-
Learn from their POV on being men; *have* an opinion; do NOT preach your opinion abt men to men and expect it to be well-received.
-
Acknowledge that your opinion, automatically, by virtue of a lack of POV, cannot trump the opinion of someone who lives the POV every day.
-
That entirely depends if experience is what is being discussed. Most of the time it isn't.
-
If someone with a penis talks crap about the effects of circumcision, I can contribute some facts to the matter & have something to say.
-
Again.. expanding the argument. Contributing facts is NOT brandishing an option.

This is the modern Left. Thinking the validity of an idea is determined by one's minority status. Such pseudo-intellectual nonsense

And you call yourself a feminist? You're a fraud.
