    Gred feel free to assess the authors of that study because you care so much about peer-review stuff.
    I love it when you do the work for me reminding everyone of your own past failures in your futile attempt to revise history.



    Now, the question is, how many of those 240-350 transgender actors are actually good enough for a big budget movie?
    So clearly the solution is just to not even look and cast ScarJo.

    And also to ignore the things people are actually saying in order to set up my strawman arguments about how diversity is ruining everything. Such as...

That creates a conflict when representation goes head to head with other priorities. It's easy to say that you should cast Terry Crews instead of The Rock when the role calls for black muscle regardless of star power. It's harder to say you should cast an unknown trans actor instead of ScarJo.

    I'd say pot meet kettle, but the kettle is black, and I cant cast you for that role. Fortunately, "practice what you preach" works too.

    Gandalf was a Maiar. It's not even clear if the Maiar had genders, though the Valar seemed to. Inasmuch as angelic beings with no defined form can have genders. Two of them were married, you see, and referred to each other as husband and wife. We get far less detail about the Maiar.

    Dealing with Nynja is like the labor of the Augean Stables. I match my effort to how much bullshit vs. empty air there is.

    Jesus H Christ which one of you self hating whites wrote this?

    https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/14/s...privilege.html

    I’m riddled with shame. White shame. This isn’t helpful to me or to anyone, especially people of color. I feel like there is no “me” outside of my white/upper middle class/cisgender identity. I feel like my literal existence hurts people, like I’m always taking up space that should belong to someone else.

    My wife said it's extremely common in the Philippines for women to try and lighten their skin. Her mom did it for awhile too.

    In what context? I think it's fair, if you have a permanent address in the country and it is your primary address then your children should be citizens. If you just happen to be in the country and your child is born then I don't know if that child should be considered a citizen.

    That kind of rule would create major issues with citizenship very quickly, leading to a new class of stateless people, the creation of which is barred by a UN treaty of which the United States is a signatory.

    and the current administration, being respectful of the UN, would not dare to do such a thing out of respect for the unenforceable legal precedent set in the UN.

    jk, please no one tell them that the treaty exists or they will do it post-haste

    And what if the original country does not recognize the child as a citizen in that context? What do you do with a human who belongs to no nation, has no guaranteed rights or nation to go home to because it popped out of the oven too quickly?

    Being a citizen of the nation you're born tackles this, and has the added benefit of not being a big deal for 99% of the population because the majority of people stay in their home area when they're about to give birth. Not doing this would literally create a refugee crisis within your own border.
