Yes. I just don't give a damn about them because they are known to be politicians. ;)

I like that even when depressed you are thinking of others. It is a nice trait. Though I don't think talking about yourself in a chat thread is unfair.

And you've just shown how ludicrous your argument is. I am obviously deranged if I see myself as a fish since I am clearly human, just as one who believes they are a female in a male body is deranged. QED.

Um... men and women aren't different species.

But they shouldn't be used to describe how you see yourself. Male and female should strictly be used to determine what you've got down there.

You didn't see what I discussed two days ago? When I returned to Eternal, the discussion I led made people uncomfortable, so in an effort to NOT do that, I need to stop it at the source.
