Even funnier, the game is set in Victorian London. Y'know, the time of huge differences between classes, poor children starving in the streets... one would imagine that Assassins who work in the shadows wouldn't have a lot of rich friends who hold feasts everyday.

Since I've realized I can't get an actual honest argument out of y'all, I'm just joking/trolling around at this point.

Yeah, cakelover probably wouldn't like me, I'm not very good at baking cake. I do make awesome nachos out of red lentils though.

Lol, ok kid. Close your bedroom door at night, else I'll hide under your bed and scare you. And eat the cake your mom made for you, too.

Alright, kid. I promise not to call you a birthing person not to offend you, how's that sound? Just to throw off the numbers since it's a daily occurrence for you apparently.

@diminuendo There are a lot of talking points on the matter from Fundamentalists/Christian conservatives, like "a woman's role is to be a mother and nurturer", "a woman must submit to a man's will/be a helper" or as @abel_hazard already mentioned, the concept of complementarianism, which yeah, "equal but different roles" but actually in reality not equal.
Bear in mind, I didn't say they're likely to see a woman as a birthing cow in general. Most people are more complex than that even with religious indoctrination. Just more likely than the wokes, comparatively.

>speaking of "fake outrage over things that weren't said..." The post doesn't mention trans people remotely
Sigh. So you really don't get it. You've been making TERF (TRANS Exclusionary Radical Feminists for those uninitiated) talking points here and sharing a TERF post. And you act surprised when trans people are brought up?
Show me one slur I made towards a person during this conversation. Meanwhile I can count like five you've thrown at me. There's one in like your every comment in this thread. This is really a case of the pot calling the kettle black.
>the vast majority of people that have bathroom "concerns" don't think all trans people are rapists.
I didn't say they were. I was listing examples of TERF talking points, hence the word AND in the sentence. You really gotta work on your reading comprehension, this isn't the first time this has happened.
As for the last quip, you don't know me at all, child. You know the strawman, nay, boogeyman, you've made of me in your head.

Silly quips aside, you really seem to not have realized that this "menstruator" argument is an extremely common TERF talking point, along with stuff like bathroom "concerns" and assuming that all trans women are secretly rapists. That's why I called it TERF stuff. If someone makes a post about how capitalism is bad and we should abolish private property, is it wrong to call the post a commie post when it didn't specifically mention it's a commie post?
Anyway, let me clarify. Nobody except for that one idiotic brainfart article actually refers to women as "menstruators". This notion that "people" do is a lie pushed by TERFs. It's fake outrage over a thing nobody actually says. Therefore the concern that we're being dehumanized is completely baseless in this case.
In reality, you're way more likely to be seen as a birthing cow by religious conservatives than the wokes. After all, Atwood's most famous novel is about a fundamentalist christian dystopia.

I said the tweet is TERF stuff, not the author necessarily, nor you. Read the comment again please. And then once again, for good measure.
I didn't decide to twist anything, the post says "omg people are labeling women 'menstruators'!", I just reacted to what it said. (And also for context this is a very common TERF argument/"concern". Idk if you're unaware of that or just playing ignorant as a gotcha so I'm just mentioning it to let ya know.) I really don't get how you got to the conclusion that I'm somehow being disingenuous by literally just reacting to what the post says.
But it's alright, whatever's going on in your life you seem to be coping with it by throwing personal attacks at people who disagree with you. I hope that whatever's going on, it can get resolved quickly and successfully. Last year, and this year so far for that matter, haven't been kind to people's mental health. I'd suggest you seek professional help rather than insulting people you know nothing about, eh?

>taking this personally
>victim by proxy
>ALWAYS manage to... (used this argument twice over hundreds of conversations but ok)
Damn hon, looks like you've set a personal record of baseless assumptions made in one comment. Would've been more productive to show me who exactly is pushing for these "menstruator" and "birthing person" terms, y'know just argue against the substance of my comment, but you do you.
Anyway I recommend you watch "Gender Critical" by ContraPoints, she's more eloquent and patient with these sorts of arguments than I.

Lol what is this TERF stuff. Even trans people agree with you that the term "menstruator" is BS, and was used in like one article anyway because its author had a brain fart and couldn't think of a better term.
Again you're arguing against a position nobody other than the strawman in your head holds.

Never met one like that but if you have in larger numbers, that's fucked up.
For a bloody long time, society was set up for women to support their men and their personal/career growth, and sacrifice their own in the process. It's not equality to just flip the roles.
