I would say only natural but if someone has surgery and looks like a woman, who would know otherwise?

Biology.

What are you confused about?

There is no person that is not male or female. There may be difficulty categorising them when they are young but they are either male or female. If th...

There is a reason why women have exclusive sports and have exclusive spaces. I doubt any bloke would care about changing rooms/lavatories or competing...

Yes. They are one sex or the other. I took "non-binary" as someone who chooses to consider themselves neither gender.

I see. It is interesting. I don't think any words that could be uttered would upset me in any way unless there was an imminent threat of violence and ...

I think there is a fundamental difference between an assault and broadcasting ideas (even very unpalatable ideas)

Agreed. The framework of society in which we live has been mangled. Not for the better IMHO.

We are hardwired to like interacting. It ensures a higher likelihood of out genes being passed down. However, the modern world has disconnected from t...

I understand why you don’t feel joy. Carry on.

I think the classic standards of service to society and responsibility by the better off in society is more desperately needed than ever. The Victoria...

Is that true? That is a convoluted way to look at your existence.

There is no general consensus about what is right and wrong, acceptable and unacceptable, what we should do as a society and what we are responsible f...

There is little joined up thinking after 13 years of Tory Government and very much a hands off approach to food industry and the giant companies feedi...

Isn't our experience just cascading neurons? (I love the phrase, I think I first read it in Self Illusion by Bruce Hood) If a machine could replicate ...

What does that mean?

I take your points about the definition. I am still a little sceptical about the science and modelling but I'm convinced that we have already trashed ...

Why? For what purpose? This is what I have a problem with. The good bit not the enjoy bit.

That's my take on it. We have a bumpy ride ahead. I'll just forget all about it and enjoy the moment.

So is this an agenda to do nothing? I am if the opinion that there is little we can do but if there is a consensus amongst scientists that it is a mas...

This is the nub of my questions. How do we develop? We have already wiped out the majority of large fauna from the planet. What is the way forward? I'...

I've worked out how to quote!! Why is it temporary? With 6 billion people and, I assume but could be wrong, a limit on how much we can consume to keep...

I'll take democracy, the voice of the people; and free markets, the voice of people spending their own money on things that give them value. This was ...

I'm sceptical of the environmental lobby. I'm unsure if the dire warnings are justified. But there doesn't seem any mechanism put forward to counter t...
