    That's a nice little dodge you frequently employ.

      I think it's her way of admitting it's too much for her to comprehend.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        It is not a dodge it is a fact.

        To engage in a thorough exchange on this topic would require lengthy and detailed posts - with [where necessary] citations.

          I've read a great deal about it over the years. As for the quote, I like to say that folks like an answer that can fit in a nutshell, but unfortunately that is exactly where many of them belong.

            It's never stopped you from offering opinions on complex subjects before...

              That has never stopped you before, so, yeah.... it's a dodge.

                  Yet so many here like to apply Mencken's aphorism.

                      How bout beginning with you posting in good faith! That would be novel.

                        Are you dodging on behalf of Civil Discourse?

                                I never said I could know how another man really feels about these things. I know what men tell each other, and I assume that they are being honest...

                                Why assume they are imitating? Is there [in reality] a stereotypical man?
                                Then what is a trans man trying to accomplish? If it is not stereotypical behavior and we know she can't biologically be male - what is she after?
