Right now I can pin my own comments as a mod but it would be so cool if [mods] could also pin user comments. When someone is looking for a link or a specific answer sometimes the most helpful comment gets buried.

I agree. Talking about intersex people or people with AIS in the context of gender is harmful and cruel. Now that I've read this chapter, I have the language for participating in conversations about intersex people. I won't though, because the LGBT cult doesn't allow conversation, but I would be ready.

I haven't looked, but I wonder if that later materials at the end of this edition talk about "lady brains" and our wider brain diversity in genes expressed from the X chromosome. The research was just beginning. We need more research into the female body, but I guess anyone reading this book already knows that.

I appreciate how she started this chapter with an argument between a man and a woman, then revealed that it was about her parents, and the effect it had on her. She's very good at balancing dialogue, interviews, and expository passages.

It's really a shame how so much of the inclusivity movement has started with good intentions (body positivity, intersex VSD* language, mental and sexual health awareness) and it's all become something so stifling and unproductive.

I have the original that was published in 1999 and downloaded the 2014. This chapter is like night and day between the two books.

I really hate how Gender Ideology has seeped into the things I love best: books.

So far the Mystery genre umbrella hasn't been effected, yet. But Fantasy/Sci-Fi/Horror definitely has because it's speculative fiction. It's malleable enough for the insertion. There has been a certain amount of frequency of writers going into Trans subs asking for information.

Interesting, what are some of the differences (seems like a lot!) between the two versions?
