Unbelievably transphobic Guardian article
Fuck the Guardian, the UK's most frustratingly reactionary centre-left paper, and their breezy, 'Sex and The City' brand of bigotry and transphobia.

Language: speaking about speaking.
Look, I've pretty well laid it out in the opening post, so don't go talking about accents, how you know how to swear in several different languages, or that your coworker's voice is a nasally high-pitched lisp that is driving you insane. We don't want to hear about it!
Simply tells us your theory bitch perspective on language in general and/or the view of all language as metaphor.
Thank you.

E-Prime, an understanding
I've heard of this revamped form of English. I think it's called E-Prime, but I'm not sure. It's basically English without the word "is". Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Does anyone have any information on it?

Pedophilia: a broad topic
How do we define pedophilia?
The ages of sexual partners are an issue, but physical maturation and puberty are also important.
Does your personal definition of pedophilia exclude yourself? Does that taint its legitimacy?
How does pedophilia fit into culture? Why is youth and sex a popular entertainment combination?

Wealth, Power and Race - is it just that the white guys want some things more?
Capitalism, race, achievement and aspiration. Are the measurements of success we tend to apply only really applicable to white men? If so, are we being racist if we suggest that there is something dodgy about the unusually high number of white men in those positions of power/wealth?
