  5. What about the remaining four-thousand odd years since God created man, MB? Don't they count? Also, the age old question: if God dislikes gays so much, why did he make them? I know GTA already addressed this in his own inimitable way, but inquiring minds want the answers to these questions. rl If you don't know where you're going, you should know where you came from.

  7. I even posted a link. http://www.isna.org/faq/frequency Maybe this will make it more comprehensible: Here’s what we do know: If you ask experts at medical centers how often a child is born so noticeably atypical in terms of genitalia that a specialist in sex differentiation is called in, the number comes out to about 1 in 1500 to 1 in 2000 births. But a lot more people than that are born with subtler forms of sex anatomy variations, some of which won’t show up until later in life. Below we provide a summary of statistics drawn from an article by Brown University researcher Anne Fausto-Sterling.2 The basis for that article was an extensive review of the medical literature from 1955 to 1998 aimed at producing numeric estimates for the frequency of sex variations. Note that the frequency of some of these conditions, such as congenital adrenal hyperplasia, differs for different populations. These statistics are approximations. Not XX and not XY one in 1,666 births Klinefelter (XXY) one in 1,000 births Androgen insensitivity syndrome one in 13,000 births Partial androgen insensitivity syndrome one in 130,000 births Classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia one in 13,000 births Late onset adrenal hyperplasia one in 66 individuals Vaginal agenesis one in 6,000 births Ovotestes one in 83,000 births Idiopathic (no discernable medical cause) one in 110,000 births Iatrogenic (caused by medical treatment, for instance progestin administered to pregnant mother) no estimate 5 alpha reductase deficiency no estimate Mixed gonadal dysgenesis no estimate Complete gonadal dysgenesis one in 150,000 births Hypospadias (urethral opening in perineum or along penile shaft) one in 2,000 births Hypospadias (urethral opening between corona and tip of glans penis) one in 770 births Total number of people whose bodies differ from standard male or female one in 100 births Total number of people receiving surgery to “normalize” genital appearance one or two in 1,000 births If you don't know where you're going, you should know where you came from.

  9. I don't think "hot" is a joke. I think "hot" is hot. If you insist on redefining words to mean what they don't mean, then you end up in this quandary. If you just let them mean exactly what most people understand them to mean, then it's not a problem. The three beach "babes" Travis is talking about are not "hot." They may be beautiful, under a certain definition of the word, but they do not fit the definition of "hot." Jubal Harshaw and Michael Valentine Smith have a very interesting discussion about this in Stranger in a Strange Land regarding She Who Used to be the Beautiful Heaulmiere. She's not hot, Walt. She's beautiful if you understand what underlies the form, but she's not hot. This is not philosophy, it's art appreciation--the art inherent in the human form. It's the difference between seeing an incredibly beautiful face on the street and saying "Wow!" and seeing the incredibly familiar and much-loved face of a friend and letting out a pent-up breath because you suddenly feel safe and comfortable. If you just accept the words as they are customarily defined, you'll have a lot less trouble with this. rl If you don't know where you're going, you should know where you came from. Gullah Proverb

  12. Please do not allow yourself to be influenced by those who are not intelligent enough to see the value of your posts. Short posts are, most often, only good for a quick laugh. You can't get much real content into a one-liner, after all. I, and others, like your posts just the way they've been all along because they're a valuable educational tool. Don't withhold that because one person isn't quite bright enough to see that. rl If you don't know where you're going, you should know where you came from. Gullah Proverb

  17. I haven't read the whole thread yet, but here's the only explanation I know: Last verse of Psychotherapy, by Melanie Safka Freud's mystic world of meaning needn't have us mystified It's really very simple what the psyche tries to hide: A thing is a phallic symbol if it's longer than it's wide As the id goes marching on. Glory glory psychotherapy, glory glory sexuality, Glory glory now we can be free as the id goes marching on.
