Pretty much, but especially so when trying to say one group of caucasians is a different race from another group of caucasians.

wall, it is true the vast majority of genetic variation occurs regardless of race rather than in the slim partition seperating the races but there is some taxonomic value, however slight, when certain biological characteristics are so highly correlated with shared geographic ancestry

the matriarchy!

Regarding Tay-Sachs, that's a disease only impacting one group of Jews (those from eastern Europe). Jews from other areas aren't. So it's not really a good point for that argument.

At what point did this thread become shit? Seriously, what the fuck?

**archibaldcrane** · 2013-10-11 23:20

It's always been shit, it got completely derailed a couple pages ago.

When the word "feminist" was typed in the title when creating the thread.

Implying femenism doesnt have legitimate greivances beyond the utterances of Anita Sarkeesian.

**archibaldcrane** · 2013-10-12 10:37

Feminism having legit grievances doesn't mean that we can have a non-shit thread about it on BG lol.

**Callisto** · 2013-10-12 11:59

ding ding ding

**ronin sparthos** · 2013-10-12 12:05

And on that we agree.

(Honestly, if this thread wasn't originally about the vidya I probably never would have read it.)

When it comes to changing the language, I think they make some good points. Because we do think in language. And so the quality of our thoughts and ideas can only be as good as the quality of our language. So maybe some of this patriarchal shit ought to go away. I think "spokesman" ought to be "spokesperson." I think "chairman" ought to be "chairperson." I think "mankind" ought to be "humankind." But they take it too far, they take themselves too seriously, they exaggerate. They want me to call that thing in the street a "personhole cover." I think that's taking it a little bit too far!

solution: personholes now go uncovered.

**Raldo** · 2013-10-14 13:25

Streethole, because it's a hole in the street.

Because legitimate commentary on the subculture of gamers can't be made through a critical feminist lens?
