    At this point, it's going to come down to a question of what you consider to be the fundamental aspects of culture. I concede that you have a much stronger point with respect to the dark ages in europe, in that the spread of christianity did proceed across the various regions throughout that...

    This is wrong, and wrong-headed. Tall might be the inverse of short, but when we're talking comparatively, it's equally true to say "Andre the Giant is taller than Peter Dinklage" as it is to say that "Peter Dinklage is shorter than Andre the giant". When we say that Andre is taller than...

    I don't consider like and hate to be binary in any fashion, nor have I suggested it. Your interpretation of my view on this is false. It's a reflection of your own fantasy about my mind, rather than an actual representation of my mind. My understanding of it is not at all simplistic - your...

    You're wrong, Jarhyn. Let's try this, I will say this about myself. I like soap flavored Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Bean more than I like vomit flavor. Do you think this implies that I like soap flavored jelly beans? Or do you think that the phrase "more than" is an important element of...

    Dig up the quote, and kindly include the context. Then I will explain to you once more how you are misunderstanding what I've said, because you insist upon forcing your own assumptions into it instead of actually reading what I am saying.

    Depends on what timescale you want to impose on it. Culture among indigenous australians was pretty damned static until England shipped their criminals there. Something like 40,000 years of essentially the same culture. The same is true for a whole lot of undeveloped tribes. Hell, it was...

    A transfer of information is not the same as learning. Why I type this sentence, and hit "post reply" I am transferring information from my laptop to the forum server. It would be nonsense to claim that the server is learning anything at all from this process.

    Gender Roles

    You are making a blanket assumption that some men are women... and then demanding that all women must accept those men as being women. I don't exclude any women; I exclude men. That you have taken it upon yourself to redefine words to suit your humpty-dumpty narrative is irrelevant to me...

    If it's any consolation, I would bristle at anyone calling me a feminist under the current usage of the term. Third wave and current liberal feminists have, in my opinion, entirely lost the plot.

    Until either you or Jokodo can be bothered to actually explain what you think "biologically female cognition" means in the context of humans, and in what way it's applicable to this topic... I reject the premise as being relevant. In case there's any particular confusion on this, I reject it...

    There are a whole lot of implicit assumptions in here, so I apologize for how much parsing this is going to have. On what basis are you assuming that this unspecified group of "some" transgender identified males could never pose as much of a threat to females in the women's rooms as they would...

    The problem is that you absolutely suck at understanding subtext in the first fucking place. You repeatedly assume subtext where there is none, and you attribute beliefs to other people - specifically to me - that I do not hold. And then you have the arrogance to argue with me about what I...

    You have zero understanding of what I was trying to convey. You don't realize what I am trying to do, so where do you get off chastising other people for failing to misunderstand me?

    I made no statements expressing either approval or disapproval. Details are entirely and completely irrelevant to the point I was attempting to make. In fact, I'm quite happy having no details at all. Look, just take a step back - both you and @Toni and just consider a singular statement: "I...

    You know that means you have fewer and fewer fucks about poor people, right? EVs are still unobtainable for a lot of poor people in urban areas, as well as being damned near useless for people living in even moderately rural areas.

    I haven't attacked anyone at all, nor have I made any judgement of anything at all being unnecessary or too violent.
