@sharrond62 For the millionth time, just educate yourself properly about science and biology. Start with sex and gender..

For the millionth time… there is no third sex. Or someone who is both or neither sex. Human Sex is binary. Two gametes. One large one small. Males or females who have a difference of sexual development. I blame MSM for deliberately & maliciously muddying the water.

@amydiehl Yet, at a point society also turns against "tomboys" because you are not feminine enough. In your late teens it is discouraged to be one. But I do get your point.

Girls are often encouraged to be athletic, assertive or like “tomboys,” while boys face no socially acceptable equivalent in the other direction. There is no benign male version of tomboy. The closest is “sissy,” not typically considered a compliment. theconversation.com/gender-conform…

@MbekezeliMB There is the Freedom Park in Pretoria and the beautiful statutes of many freedom fighters and other historical figures at Century City in Cape Town?

Apartheid in South Africa is very poorly memorialised. There is no public apartheid museum. There are more World War 2 memorials than there are apartheid memorials. Of the few that do exist, many are poorly maintained and falling apart. It’s such a bizarre situation.

@harryfisherEMTP You obviously have not seen a tetanus case, do you live in a glass box? And stop posting lies.

Paramedic truth: These fake “doctors” talk about one or two measles or “tetanus” cases but they refuse to talk about the immense amount of vaccine injured children. The death, dying, and brain injuries I see due to vaccines FAR outweigh the infections or disease. Thats a fact. At some point these “people” will need to be held accountable for their complicity in murder. God bless

@BadWritingTakes @IndiaWilloughby An excellent example of why we have bullies: The parent(s) bully the child and the child does the same, a learnt behaviour. A cycle of abuse and intolerance.

One reason you can't "debate" with Gender Criticals by giving them evidence of how much their ideology harms children is because half of them will simply never care and the other half actively *relish* child abuse. Harming children is a goal for these GCs. They love it.

All due respect George, this is disingenuous virtue-signalling baloney. I’m not ‘obsessed’ with trans women, I want them to have the same rights as we enjoy - but not at the expense of eroding women’s rights. Your failure to want to protect women’s rights is.. ‘disturbing.’
Boy George@BoyGeorge

Yet, you would probably date all of them. Piers, your obsession with 'trans' women is on the verge of disturbing. All of the 'trans' women on this cover are women. They are harming no one, it does not stop biological women from doing anything and no one can be erased. We have to share this planet and respected each other.

Daniil Medvedev looking totally distraught after his loss to Bonzi at the U.S. open. He’s smashing his racquet and just sitting on the court. Brutal loss to swallow.
