Did you just intend to endorse organ harvesting and grave robbing?

And, if you want tax reform capital gains aren't your target, but instead "unrealized gains". A billionare pledging stock to back a loan should pay tax on their whole net worth's increass in value first.

Is there a particilar part of a lecture about chimpanzee mating habits that you think especially buttress sexism? If not, just referring to a whole video as a reference is just a gish galllp through citation.

Except that it ISNT self-evident. There are plenty of mammals with no apparent bias as to which sex is more prone to violence, more if you exclude the minority of mammals where only one sex has a natural weapon.

You might have a slightly better case if we were just talking primates. But not by a lot.

As a seperate top-level answer: no, would not pursue a romantic relationship with a woman who repeats sexist assertions about men. Because i am both a man and a feminist, and my several decades of happy married life have taught me that compatability of strongly held beliefs is a key to romantic happiness.

I would also not encourage the young men and women i know to either espouse sexist positoons or pursue potential partners who hold such beliefs. And i would probably also ramble for a bit about how all labels are imperfect and you should not necessarily dismiss someone just becsuse of a label.

If you want to date someone who describes themselves as a "radical feminist", a date might be a good way to discern if they are an "all men are evil" feminist or a "men are awesome and also victims of the patriarchy" feminist.

Feminists dont say things like "all men are potential rapists", save for those who also say "all women are potential rapists.".

An actual (traditional) feminist would say something like "society encourages rapy behavior from men", which is functionally the same but rhetorically a far different animal. Women and men who say that men are categoryly dangerous are also implicitly telling boys that they are bad just because they are boys.

Sexist statements about how women are good and men are bad isnt feminism, it's just sexism in disguise.

The elecrelically semi-literate side, obviously.

I mean, isn't it a usb_c cable that the manufavtuer claims can handle 10 amps of current at once? (which i think may be on the low side)
