If Lindsay Clancy is found innocent because hormones made her emotionally unstable, women better be very careful celebrating that verdict.
Because the law loves PRECEDENT.
From that day forward, every job application is going to have a new question:
“Are you currently hormonal?”
“Well, I’m a woman.”
“Thank you. I think we’ll be going in another direction.”
You can’t carry a weapon anymore. No female police officers. Sorry, but we cannot hand a loaded gun to somebody whose legal defense might eventually be, “My hormones were acting up.”
No more high-stress jobs, either. No air-traffic controllers. No surgeons. No nuclear-launch codes. One bad hot flash and boom 💥 Canada is glowing.
And women definitely can’t be judges. How can you decide whether somebody else is emotionally stable when your own gender just established in court that hormones can make you kill three people?
No female politicians, either. You can’t be trusted to run the country if, according to your own argument, your endocrine system occasionally takes over the government.
And custody hearings are going to change overnight.
The judge will say, “Ordinarily, children belong with their mother. However, according to the Lindsay Clancy precedent, she may be only one hormone away from a Netflix documentary. The children go with Dad.”
Dad doesn’t know their shoe sizes, the pediatrician’s name or which one is allergic to peanuts, but his testosterone has never been successfully used as an insanity defense.
Feminists spent a hundred years saying women are not hysterical, irrational creatures controlled by their biology and one defense attorney walks into court and says, “Ladies and gentlemen of the jury… have you considered the uterus?”
You cannot demand equal authority and then ask for discounted accountability.
If women want equal rights, great. But equal rights come with equal wrongs.
Otherwise, that glass ceiling is about to become a padded ceiling.
Rape has a permanent effect on a woman's mental health. Many never rally recover from the experience
Several women have told me exactly this.
It hardly an exaggeration to call it psychic murder
@_sn_n You’re ignorant and a bigot. Mountain people have made a haven out of this beautiful piece of land while those you service wish to invade. We don’t want your help nor you here either. You’ve no idea how happy and simple life can be in the mountains.
"if Appalachia was a third world nation for white people"
You'd get an economy roughly the size of Spain's, divided among half as many people, giving you a GDP per capita comparable to Finland or Canada.
Finance & manufacturing are the top industries (15.6% & 14.1% of regional GDP, respectively). Note the irrelevance of tourism (3% of GDP) compared to other 'third world nations.'
Appalachistan would have a slightly lower Gini coefficient (less income inequality) than the U.S. as a whole. The unemployment rate is ~4%, comparable to the rest of the U.S. & half of France's.
Counting associates degrees + bachelors, Appalachistan would have a tertiary educational attainment rate of 39%, higher than the EU.
Counting bachelor's degrees only (4 yrs in the U.S. vs. 3 yrs in the EU, so biased toward EU), Appalachistan's educational attainment is comparable to Germany (29% vs 30%).
Trump calls it “Lake America” and Americans completely lose their shit.
Meanwhile, Canada is instructing journalists not to describe 9/11 as a terrorist attack.
But yeah… Lake America is the outrage.
You all look fucking dumb.
@AbdulElSayed What’s it matter? You hate it anyway so you can’t say shit. You’re racist, hateful, and a narcissist. You are not worth of our great senate.
I see the “That’s a woman if they say so, you fucking bigot” crew are losing their minds because men are declaring themselves women and trying to play in the WNBA.
But I thought sex didn’t matter? I thought if a man says he’s a woman, we’re all supposed to shut up, accept it and call anyone who questions it a bigot?
Well, here we are.
You literally could not make this shit up.
We didn’t make the rules. We were told to abide by them. Either every man who claims to be a woman is a woman or none of them are. You can’t change the rules just because the bullsh-t of the rules has been exposed.
