    All trolling aside, this could be an interesting discussion of how exactly gender is determined and what role social, mental and physical components play in that. Being WF in the RR, this is unlikely though. :shrug:

    Having a cock makes you a dude.

    Nova could remedy the situation with some hedge trimmers.

    Though he'd need to grow some balls first to pull that off.

    Truth be told "Shepherd" sold his [-]persona[/-] account to Nova aka Pablo Diablo for more than a few Euros, and quit Wordforge for a much nicer trailer.

    Pablo Diablo turned the Shepherd persona upside down to create a hook for his series of transgender adventure books.

    Agreed. It has all the makings of a great thread. You should start it.

    this.

    I'm up for that, by all means.

    But I'll not take any obvious bait.

    your choice. if it's RR I have the ability and intention to ignore bullshit trolling, and can always bail if it turns into a "I'm sorry man but you're just a perve" territory.

    In theory it's Green Room friendly but in my experience, most folks don't "discuss" in the Green Room.

    Well call me whatever you want, but I think someone is truly fucked up if they think they were born the wrong sex.

    Ah, but is that an INFORMED opinion, or is it somewhat like your opinion on what it feels like to give birth?

    Quite possibly. Nova could be batshit insane.

    However none of us are in a position to judge that. It is a medical fact that gender is not the binary pair of options we usually treat it as. One gender can manifest physical traits of the other, genetically things can be confused.

    If it's possible for gender traits to be expressed incorrectly in the growth of the body, then it's equally possible for mental traits to develop incorrectly as well and I do not see how it can possibly be said to be impossible for someone who is physically one gender to have developed a brain of the opposite gender.

    So there are two options as I see it.

    The first is Nova has major mental problems as you say.

    The second option is that Nova is correct and she is mentally a female, trapped in a physically male body.

    In either option trolling or abuse is in extremely bad taste, and without having years of medical expertise behind me I think the best option is to treat her as though the latter is the case. Bit of courtesy never a bad thing.

    Based upon previous RR discussions it is clear that you are not.

    Don't blame Nova b/c she and most everyone else have caught on to your passive aggressive trolling. You don't want to discuss anything but instead just try and see how long you can argue in circles until others just give up. If you don't like being ignored, try cutting out the bullshit.

    It doesn't matter, Azure. They'll tell you what you were thinking one way or the other. Just ride with it.

    Feel free to let your disdain motivate you to stay out of the next one then.

    Get him to give you pointers on "How to Talk around Someone and Pretend They Aren't There" while he's at it.

    It doesn't take long for an example to come rolling out of the woodwork, does it? :)

    Okay, Poster A says "Congress sucks!"

    Poster B says "Poster A said 'Congress sucks!'"

    Poster A says "Stop creating strawmen!"

    Then you come along.
