addicknt your answer is uninformed or you just didn't read my post.
I said which bit do you disagree with and I will provide the scientific and medical evidence.
Your answer to this was to read Sasha's post.
So you are changing the subject because you realise I am correct.
If not I repeat what on my post do you disagree with and I will provide the scientific and medical evidence.
Nothing uninformed about my opinion Q, just the facts.
Hermaphroditism is also a biological fact and is not the same thing as the contemporary debate - but you'd never understand that. You'd do well to read and carefully digest Sasha's excellent post.
What about the modern day sh - it ? she or it
Nothing to do with you seanhunter, I was addressing sharketmares posting.
Just addicknt jumping in with an uninformed opinion.
A little evidence for addicknt.
Tell me is this a man or a woman.
hermaphrodite
NOUN
a person or animal having both male and female sex organs or other sexual characteristics, either abnormally or (in the case of some organisms) as the natural condition.
Quady, where on earth did the lecture about genders come from. I attacked no one on that score, and in fact mentioned one gender that is currently being demonised (men). It didn't imply criticism or judgement of any other gender. Far from it.
Really addicknt, what about people who are born female by genetics and have male organs, people who are born male by genetics and have female organs. People who are born with both female and male organs.
People whose brain chemistry doesn't match their genetics.
These are the facts. no distortion just facts, which ones do you disagree with, and I will be happy to find you the scientific and medical evidence.
At times you sound intelligent, but on this not only are you wrong, you also show no emotional intelligence to people who are born different.
I guess you view the world through your eyes, and see nothing else.
No Quady, biology isn't complicated - it's very straightforward and has only been complicated by people attempting to distort the facts.
seanhunter just for one minute stop and think. People of all genders have been discriminated against for nearly all of time.
I won't pretend to understand the many gender types I don't.
But what I do understand is that we are showing more kindness to those that gender isn't easily defined, and that can only be a good thing.
When you saw people falling off those planes you saw that as the decline of the western world . REALLY ?
Sharemarket, I get some of what you say, and share your concerns on the planet.
However as we spread wealth around the world, birthrates decline, today in the news is a story that in the UK the population is falling.
We are not redefining what a woman is, we are redefining what people are, and biology and gender are turning out to be more complicated than people like you and I understand.
The scary thing that no one is looking at is the link between increase mental illness and the increased use of cannabis, the governments first attack on mental illness should be an attack on drug dealers.
What's the point of increasing mental health services with one policy and then increasing the number of people that need them with another policy.
On green issues we will get there, the evidence is overwhelming only the ill informed or the unintelligent believe otherwise.
So we we see a greater focus on green issues around the world, as it's the intelligent leading the debate.
"As the Germans say, the young are the future."
Yes I seem to remember they had a sort of Boy Scout type organisation in the 1930s to that effect... But despite the gloomy tone of my post, I am the future, while I'm still here - at least just as much as anyone else is. All this "listen to the children" guff gets a bit wearing, especially when little Greta Grumbleweed starts wagging her finger.
But thanks anyway Quady, at least I know now - when I saw those people falling off those military planes in Kabul, that wasn't the decline of the West after all, it was just me getting old. Cheers.
Quady - I am not old (early 30s) and agree with seanhunter's post entirely. The state of the world today and the sh*t young people are having to live through is one of the main reasons I won't be having children (that and the fact the planet is dying and we don't need more people). Society is falling apart. People are living more and more of their lives online, resulting in a highly divided, angry and mentally unwell population (well aware of the irony here!).
We are heading towards chaos and we are witnessing it happen before our very eyes, as the mentally deranged try to redefine what being a woman is, and advocate for life changing gender treatments for literal children. It's terrifying.
seanhunter what a depressing post.
It's the natural way of things that old people think their ways are right and young people strive to shape the world in their image.
As the Germans say, the young are the future.
We will always have challenges in the world, today is no different.
We just have to be accepting as we get older and trust the next generation.
It will be all right, but different.
When you think that the world is going to pot, then it doesn't mean it is, it just means you have got old.
"It is a shame their doctrine is so unforgiving."
Very good post Zoros. It reminds me of what Hitler grudgingly said he admired Stalin for: "He can think in terms of centuries."
That the West - riven with weakness, wokeness, and still determined to maximise the self-harm that China's little gift from Wuhan has encouraged us to inflict upon ourselves this past 18 months - is in terminal decline, I have sadly no doubt. Our debt alone makes us a house of cards, and perhaps that's all we really have been since Nixon dumped the Bretton Woods agreement back in 1971 - but at least we had a chance of holding things together. i don't think it's just a sign of getting old that I genuinely feel the western world is literally falling apart in front of me.
The coming world, dominated by China, that the snowflakes inherit will be a very different one to the happy like-button rainbow flagged socialist utopia they seem to be expecting through the prism of their smartphones. I'll lie to see some of it, but hopefully from the security of a quiet retirement. For the first time in my life, I don't want to be 18 again - not in a world of masks and lockdowns and cancel culture and debt and the utter demonisation of straight white men and boys, all of it exacerbated by the ceaseless shrieking of the 24/7 online hive mind where every road leads to mental illness. We haven't a hope against the Chinese. When the time comes - a time of their choosing as you say - they will march straight through us.
Meantime though, as a Solg investor, I wouldn't mind them chucking some of that lovely, lovely Belt and Road money at us.
Frog, you really think its other countries pushing China away. I think you will find its China that's doing the pushing, coercing and punishing of anyone dare question them. Its not a matter of other countries pushing them away. You sound like you are buying into their propaganda exactly as they would like. Never forget the country is run by a financially and morally corrupt communist dictatorship, with a leader who changed long established rules so he could be "leader for life", red flag much? I mean why do the censor their population from any outside media, what sort of government does that to their people? Believe their messaging at your peril!
Zoros the The tower of the cloth- and-shirt-foe makes about as much sense as your postings.

Zoro’s,
I think your talking Chinese pork balls mate, sweet and sour just like some of your posts lol.
How about calling it a day on 5he silliness, no keyboard warriors going to win or get hurt, any point really?
Atb
Quady - I did...I always ask her before posting................she has a black belt in macrame.
Z
Zoros, your wife maybe Chinese, but to call her Chinese f*ckwit is naughty.
GLA.
Then Zoros , ask your wife before posting.
Quady - my wife is chinese f*ckwit.

Zoros when is the last time you have been to China, you are just repeating what the media says.
Go there, it's a completely different story.
The single most salient reason China will become a global military and economic superpower (as early as 2030, some have forecast) is because they use time as their weapon of choice. Everything they have set out to achieve, has been achieved....using time as their ally. Their society is built on consistency in power and politics. They are a very determined race and people ignore them at their peril.
Taiwan will become chinese again make no bones about it.....when? Whenever the chinese decide. The yuan will become one of the worlds first digital currencies and as their gold reserves continue to build, more nations will lean away from the dollar....again it will take time...but this suits china just fine......tick.........................tick......................tick
It is a shame their doctrine is so unforgiving.

Jerry I can see Taiwan and South Korea joining AUKUS, lets remember during the cold war Taiwan had American Nuclear missiles in Taiwan. They could have again.
I think over the years this may bring China into the mainstream.
