Heh, i sometimes have pangs of misanthropy, but nothing against either of the sexes. They're both equally stupid sometimes. =.= (although since the guys usually have political power more often, they have more opportunities to do so)

Yay cissexism!

Oh, ignore me. I just feel duty bound to point out that using "sexes" when you mean "genders" implies they are the same thing, rather like an NT saying "ret*ds" when they mean "autistic people". T'is offensive and ignorant.

If you're talking about physical bodies, it's sexes.
If you're talking about female or male minds, it's genders. Before anyone lectures me on being pedantic, think about what you'd say to an "aspies are ret*ds" NT.

How about transgendered people, those who feel as if they are "born in the wrong body"? Is a man still a man even after having sex reassignment surgery to become a woman (and vice versa)?

Transgender versus transsexual.

First off, that is transsexual, not transgendered.
Second, if someone wishes to be seen as a woman, they are not a man and it is transphobic to call them such.
Third, the entire reason I make the distinction is because of people who were born with clashing sex and gender.

I would rather not discuss this further, as it triggers my anxiety, so I will just say that transsexualism is caused by a birth defect that forms the wrong body around the transperson's brain, and it is medically recognised as a birth defect and treated as such.
If anyone feels like arguing, they can do it with the medical and psychological professions in every country that has decent healthcare.

Fruit of the crotch topic

In my travels here on the third rock, the term crotch fruit refers to lesions caused by an STD, many of them wart-like. Not a pleasant condition.

Perhaps the terminology for unwanted children and zefs has changed somewhat over the years. I stand corrected. :P

haha! I've only ever heard it used as a crude female version of 'fruit of my loins'

I think finding it offensive is ignorant.

Gender is a fairly new word, compared to sexes anyway. It started off as a feminist theory.

It seems like there's a lot of that here. Maybe most of it is to do with biterness. Aspie guys holding a grudge against the female population, we've all been there. Maybe its cause a lot of aspie females can be over sensetive, if you say one bad word about any woman you're a "misogynist". A bit like some members can label you a bigot etc if you have a different opinion to the norm. I'm not sure having a women's forum, while there isn't a men's one, helps. I think it'd create a lot of tension if things were the other way round. Its a shame people have to go to war with each other here, considering its meant to be a support site.


Most of the Aspies who regularly get angry at the female or "evil radical feminist" population tend to be ultraconservatives or neo-Fascists. And, no, not all Aspie men have had resentment towards the female population, as I for one can think of quite a few more wrong committed against me by the male population in my life and I've never met a self-declared feminist who I didn't get along with.

BTW most of the gross, casual misandry I've witnessed has come from apolitical married women.

I have no idea, I don't think I was around for that. I'm just relaying what I recall mods saying about the topic in the past. Sorry M_P!

Correct. Or they just have a bee in their bonnet about not being able to find love or get laid due to their own personal issues they refuse to recognize and instead blame on the women...
