I wonder if modern medicine has found a way to change Page's bone structure and DNA to conform to that person's chosen gender?

I have never understood the JP worship of the right.

He says a lot of things I agree with and isn't afraid to do so and I value that. I don't care about right or left.

What I wrote in another thread on this topic:

Oh wow, I haven't listened to him a while. He's really refined that insufferable sanctimony schtick, hasn't he? He would rather die than delete the tweet and have his suspension lifted? Thank god. That's probably the most pro-social thing that guy has ever done.

If Elon Musk ever decided to play Pontius Pilate and offer to the crowd the choice of reinstating either Trump or Peterson, I'd hop on the Trump Train. At least that guy's funny.

I've known my share of straight, bisexual, lesbian and butch women. And all of them were females. Biology always comes out. Orientation doesn't change that.

Maybe because those are sexual orientations and not genders.

Being a tomboy doesn't make me a man. It makes me a woman with characteristics attributed to men. But I'm a still woman nonetheless. Removing body parts won't change that. Nor will hormones.

If this guy couldn’t guess that his obvious bait would’ve have had the repercussions that it did he’s not qualified to call himself a psychologist.

Obvious bait is obvious.

Not yet. But imagine if anyone could chose what they wanted to be?

That would be amazing.

I don't see what is hateful against that post. People have posted a lot more insulting messages against other groups and peopel, but it seems you can't even disagree with lgbt stuff on social media, which i find worrying.

Yep it really is getting to be the case that when people are awful they have to face the consequences. Truly terrible.

Why this guy felt the need to call out a specific person on Twitter in this most crass way is beyond me.

People can have all the mean spirited thoughts they like but bringing them up in public has consequences.

Peterson has said he’s quitting Twitter several times now, most recently when he got roasted for fat shaming a Sports Illustrated cover model and had to take a break. Twitter’s just helping him along with that.

I say good riddance.

I’d love it if that was possible, just to see conservative Christian’s brains implode…

I don't know what twitter you read, but last time people 'call other people out' all the time and with more much offensive stuff.

I wonder if this sentence would get you "banned" on Twitter....

If not, why?

I couldn’t care less either way. If I did get banned, I certainly wouldn’t whine about it, because I’m not a baby…

If you say so... I personally do not understand those grey rules anymore, but I am not a participant, anyway.
