A quiet non binary thread is just part of the ongoing cycle.

It's one of the reasons why screwing with your pituitary gland - i.e. taking steroids - makes men grow boobs. The engineering is already there, just needs the right kick start to turn on.

I don't need a biology lesson thanks, I just wondered what happened to some of the contributors on this thread smile
It is not unusual for this thread to be quiet for days, weeks, or months.

I've read several of your posts on the EU thread, and now on here, and whether deliberately or not, you are coming across as a very unpleasant individual.

I know you won't take this on board, or care, but it's worth pointing out regardless.
Spot on

I'm guessing there have been a few thread bans as it's gone very quiet in here of late...
I'm still here.

The fine weather has had me out on the golf course. Making the most of my supposedly white male privilege.

Not clear to me Noodle, are you being "funny" or are you genuinely trying to claim that white male privilege doesn't exist?

Your constant mocking and snide comments don't exactly advance the debate, Noodle. rolleyes

That was a serious comment. I am genuinely surprised they haven't chosen a non binary up bringing for the child. I started reading the article and thought any second now they'll be talking about non binary. But they didn't. Kudos to them.

As for snide comments i don't think anyone on this thread can match you for that.

Fair enough; I apologise.

White male privilege exists in the same way that any generalised group identity has relevance to individuals. Islamic terrorist proclivity, black females are hysterical, Irish gypsies are thieves, gays are feminine, Asians are cleverer and blacks stupider, tall people privilege, good looking privilege, trans are all radical, Young all snowflakes...... I wish people would stop only seeing groups when it suits a victimhood narrative.

My mate was a white male living in Zimbabwe, he didn't feel particularly privileged!

It all depends where you are, for the majority of the globe white males are irrelevant, however our news channels and online content creators have picked up on it, why? It evokes a reaction from some, which many find entertaining. That's my guess anyway! There a revolting humans everywhere some of them are white and male some of them are not white and not male.

I see the gender pay gap claims some women are paid less whilst ignoring than men in their teens/twenties are paid less than women

Conclusive proof that the gender pay gap doesn't exist then. Well done. rolleyes

I guess it’s not really an issue if we just get some gender fluidity into the stats

I've yet to see any evidence of a like-for-like pay gap.

Earnings gap, sure.

Your correct with this part, the media will be onto something else (I think they already are really) when they invent/discover the next thing that gets a reaction, stirs emotion and gets people fighting!

So on the one hand we have the idea that Male White Privilege and the Gender Pay Gap can both be utterly refuted by finding a few examples of exceptions, and therefore the exceptions disprove the hypothesis, and yet on the other hand we have the assertion that male is male and female is female. and when exceptions to this are shown (ie. intersex) they are dismissed as mere edge cases.
