    My opinion hasn't changed.

    You argued for your definition of "woman" instead of seriously addressing the issues around her answering the question. Now, you suggest her real reason for not answering is fear of the cancel culture crowd.

    This is the part that I get fixated on. And, it's not just that your "daughter" could be uncomfortable with a male changing in front of them. It's that the government requires you to put your child in school and then requires your daughter to undress in front of that male every day to avoid detention/suspension and pass to the next grade or receive their diploma. The thought of going to school with a male until you turn 14-18 years old, and knowing them as male that whole time, and then one day they change their mind, and the government requires you to change in front of them? This is a strange requirement... especially when studies show most minors who identify as trans will eventually change their mind and stop being trans, but in the meantime, they just get to stand next to your daughter while she undresses twice a day.

    Christians haven't cornered the hypocrisy market. Most Christians are just living according to what they believe to be true. In order for hypocrisy to be a factor in anyone's life they have to be saying one thing but living contrary to what they say. You can disagree with a person's beliefs/opinions, but you can't call it hypocrisy just on that basis. I would have to say you're using too broad of a brush if you think hypocrisy is prevalent among Christians. But I do agree with you that hypocrisy can be repugnant, even among atheists. Prevalent? Not so much.

    The kids you're talking about have no frame of reference that makes it sexual. We tell small children they have to wear clothes. Teenagers don't need the same admonition.
    No, it's not "simple as this." The time and place for discussing these matters is related to when they need to know so they don't go looking for answers.

    Seeing "drag" doesn't mean you'll be interested in it.

    We're just going to have to agree to disagree. Your interpretation of the SC's rulings are suspect. Why do you think the Biden administration is eager to have its day at selecting SC Justices? I'm sure politics plays a role. Why do you think Democrats in Congress what to stack the court? I assure you it has every thing to do with shaping the court according to their ideology.

    Probably so.

    People like these are likely to vote for Republicans.

    Does that mean we should associate Republicans with them? I don't think so.

    So now you are an expert on sample surveys !

    Consider the possibility of confirmation bias,

    It seems to be the case the more and more people are getting fed up with this nonsense.

    You've jumped the shark.

    For like the fifth time....I'm going off of what women have said. They do NOT feel comfortable with a biological man in the same bathroom/locker room. I guess they don't want to see random penises. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
    In other words, it's what many women are arguing for

    Very well put.
    Most who think it was so unfair Roe was overturned, sadly repeat the latest partisan echo chamber dribble, so, it's no wonder there is much confusion on their part.

    Reading and digesting nonsense doesn’t change 0.5% to 5%. .

    To complain about the conservative justices' politics, and not to complain about the liberal judges' politics is hypocritical. Reminds me of that sage post you just authored about hypocrisy not being inclusive only to the Christians. Post 53. ;)

    I'm just looking at the study. I do have some experience with studies.

    I'm just pointing out that gender issues were a tiny percent of this survey, the survey covered one school district and that the result is well off the accepted norm.

    That calls for caution.

    Everybody does one or the other. I am sure you have, but the fact of the matter is, the SC has reached historic levels of disapproval. I probably won’t consider voting for a Republican, no matter how moderate or better he might appear than a Democratic opponent, for at least two generations because of the current court. I am a one issue voter. My issue is the Supreme Court.

    https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out...ntify-gender-diverse-pittsburgh-study-rcna993
    Nearly 1 in 10 teens identify as gender-diverse in Pittsburgh study
    The figure is vastly higher than the roughly 2 percent cited in most national estimates.

    Not .5 percent. 2 percent. It would seem, based on this study...that we are going to see a sudden spike in the amount of people who identify as "gender diverse" if we keep pushing this gender crap on our children.

    Here's the study.
    https://publications.aap.org/pediat...e-Youth-in-an-Urban?autologincheck=redirected

    "Nearly 10% of high school students surveyed reported a gender-diverse identity. The prevalence of GDY in this study is 5 times higher than current national estimates from a study involving 10 states and 9 urban school districts.1 Although these data were collected from a single urban school district, the findings may approximate a less biased estimate of the prevalence of youth with gender-diverse identities, given how gender identity was operationalized."

    Do not understand that male to female trans can have a penis, and you are arguing for them to be in a women’s restroom over a female to male like Kelly Petrus, who had a medically constructed vagina?

    You are arguing for this man to use a woman’s restroom because it makes women comfortable?

    Ok it is not .05% but 2%.

    Nothing to concern about 2 %.

    You want to be concern about something

    30 million (9%) Americans don’t have health insurance. Does GOP has any plan for these Americans?

    Those opposed to the abortion ruling were supportive of stare decisis.

    Claiming that is a sign of hypocrisy is preposterous.

    Are you claiming this is a issue being decided based on religion? You might be right. White evangelical Christians are the only religious group who are as a group opposed to abortion being available most or all of the time.

    It's hard to put together the size of the opposition to abortion without consideration of religious affiliation.
