| As they should...get back in the home and cook some brownies and raise your kids right and stop acting like a man with all this atheletic competitiveness. |

| It is actually unusual, historically and globally, that our culture considers there to be only two genders. An incredible number of cultures throughout world history have had three or more genders, and it's not unheard of for people to be born with both sets of genitalia, or a single set that contains many characteristics of the other set. I know a person back home who has male genitalia, but an extra X chromosome, so he has breasts like a woman, almost no facial hair, and all sorts of other things stemming from having far more estrogen in his body than most biological men do. |

Yes, and those cultures died out. Let's not allow our own to do the same by allowing deviant and degenerate lines of thought pervade our current progress. |

I find it extremely amusing that someone as close-minded as yourself would claim to care about "progress". |

| I suppose it depends on one's definition of progress. Who said I haven't been speaking tongue in cheek as it is? |

| I think that when you're saying offensive things like that, the impetus is on you to make sure we know it's tongue-in-cheek, not on us to figure it out. |
