Life of a Transexual Chess Player Pt. II: Competition

I started reading this article (with a heavy heart, admittedly)

Get over yourself man. Its a major website with a large readership and well respected. It might be right wing' but don't have a heavy heart reading alternative views. I read the Guardian all the time, but I don't have a heavy heart doing it.

LOL

I shut it down at the (oops!) comment.

I asked you to read just one thing, as a courtesy, and you couldn't even do that.  You see the word 'oops' and this instantly gives you an excuse to jump on the self-righteous, victimhood, "look-how-insensitive" bandwagon. Geez grow a set will you.

The "Oops" was in the context of a completely confusing, exasperating story... if you hadn't just switched off 10% of the way in (in your arrogance and narrow-mindedness) - you would have got to the point. Here let me help you out: (quote from link)

Well, maybe Exhibit A should be Oprah Winfrey introducing us to “the first pregnant man” in 2008. This would be a woman named Tracey who “transitioned” to being Thomas by having a double mastectomy with a dose of hormones to produce facial hair and such. Thomas thought it would be nice to have a baby someday, and so decided to keep “his” vagina, uterus, and ovaries intact. But for some reason, even though Thomas was legally documented as male, she (oops!) needed a sperm donation. (Life isn’t fair.) In any event, when pregnant, Thomas was happy to pose nude (mostly, anyway) for the camera.

Thomas has since had two more children and in 2012 decided to undergo surgery for a more complete transition to a male bodily appearance. She now lectures on “trans fertility and reproductive rights.” Most do not understand what a seismic shift in language is being pushed here. In this scheme of things, using the pronoun “she” to refer to a person who goes through pregnancy and gives birth to a child is grounds for punishment.

You lecture me about thinking, yet you stop reading because your pwoor wittle fweelings are hurt by ONE LITTLE WORD! if you had spent another 30 seconds reading the rest, you would have understood the context. But no... run from the hills from opinions which differ from your own delicate mainstream SJW sensibilities. You display all the classic traits of a sensitive Leftist PC snowflake.  

So in in this context it is completely 'fair game' to be (a) confused at the incredibly complexities now unravelling, (b) exasperated at how we are being expected to take all this in without critique, and (c) concerned about the new tyranny of PC language which we all have to learn about, conform to and implement for fear of being labelled a transphobe / bigot.  

Get it? That's the point she is making.

I would suggest that a good start might be to disregard the blogs and stick to established literature instead.

Get of your high horse. The vast majority of links I gave were news sources of verifiable events. Why the f would I need to read your 'established literature' (which you neither cite nor refer me to) - to understand commons sense and news items?

All my other posts where I have asked you question you have conveniently ignored. Instead you keep typing the same defensive "you are uninformed" response, with nothing to back it up.

I'm done with this conversation. I put a lot of effort in putting together responses to you, but you haven't even given me the basic courtesy of replying to past questions or reading just one article.

It is impossible to have a discussion when you dismiss over 20 separate sources, in your 'appeal to authority' style arument that none of it has any merit.

So I will leave it there with you.
