Bruce Wayne chose to be Batman because when he was young, he had an irrational fear of bats.
Using the same method, I would be Wadded-Up-Paper-Man.
What about you?
@AngryArchon @futurerichentp @DelusionPosting According to him, he had been interviewed to appear on some show on Animal Planet about the whole thing. They'd sent a camera crew out and talked to him, his family & everything, but the whole show got canceled before the episode made it to post production.
@futurerichentp @DelusionPosting I don't understand it either. In person, people seem to feel compelled to tell me the strangest things about themselves. I don't know how I bring it to the surface. I don't even try. They just start talking.
@ha88_la @ValidLs I'm as much a doctor as you. I'm using logic here. If a person believes they're in the wrong healthy body, to the point where they think surgically or chemically changing it is the only logical alternative to suicide, then they have some serious psychological problems.
@engineers_feed Singularities, the effects of gravitationally bent space on passing objects, entropy's coexistence with life & other seemingly self-organizing systems, the scientific method's lack of protocols for phenomena which can only be observed under uncontrollable/unpredictable conditions
@therabbithole My reasoning is that I assume the fight doesn't allow me to have more weapons than they do, and that I'm not given the opportunity to lay traps ahead of the fight in preparation.
@ha88_la @ValidLs In order to be a reputable doctor, they can't vote a certain way, or adhere to one of the most popular religions in the world? They can't even disagree with you about some vaccines? Are you a doctor? Do you have patients whose health you can observe? What are your qualifications?
@ha88_la @ValidLs Hating yourself to the point that you seek to surgically or chemically alter yourself to achieve self-acceptance is not a disorder? What else could it be? This is not a symptom of homosexuality. It's more like anorexia or body integrity disorder.
