This could all end in war against the USA at this point. Honestly that might be for the best at this point.

No biological male can have periods or bear children. I think that's fairly straight forward. Strength is a spectrum though I agree.

Hmm. I think there are some things where they are necessary for biological reasons. Like males having increased upper body strength, or females dealing with birth, period pains, etc where some things can only be done by one physical sex or one needs more understanding of certain things. Other than that though your pretty much spot on. Plus sex and gender aren't exactly the same thing anyway as I am sure someone will point out.

Sure there are many other societies where gender is also thoroughly and completely cooked to higher levels than it is in say UK, USA, or so on such as Saudi Arabia but it's a very broad generalisation to say it's cooked everywhere. There have been and are matriarchal societies even that have very different norms than we do. Not all societies are heteronormative either. I don't know all the societies in the world. I am pushing it to even say all western societies are cooked.

That wasn't my point at all. A lot you are good at jumping to conclusions based on not a lot of information instead of asking clarifying questions.

I am saying gender roles are cooked for both men and women because they say a lot of shit that doesn't make sense. Like the idea that men are always more logical and women are always better parents. Even the thing about colours and skirts don't make sense. If anything skirts are better for male anatomy than trousers are. Gender norms and heteronormativity make no sense. They as concepts are cooked. It's lead to lots of dumb laws and injustice on all sides.

That's not what I am saying. Gender roles in general are cooked and it hurts both sides. I never said this is the fault of women. It's not on them that they couldn't open a bank account for decades for example, or all the sexist things men have done over the centuries. You've taken one thing I said and twisted it to a completely different conclusion.

It's things like men like blue and women like pink, or women wearing skirts but not men. None of these things are actually biological, just like the idea men and women do different jobs. We are cooked because we have invented daft roles for genders in the first place. Don't get me started on things like the idea women are better parents or that men are inherently violent. The idea that men are inherently better at certain jobs and tasks as well, especially ones that have nothing to do with physical strength.

Agreed. Gender in many societies has gotten too cooked at this point. IDK how this gender war shenanigans is ever going to end.

This isn't a you problem. You haven't been mansplaining. This is gender war shenanigans and people being sexist towards men in the name of feminism. Gender in western society is honestly cooked at this point.

You sometimes have to press a button for using your own bag first

Your supposed to weigh the bag first, at least in some stores.

 

When I try opening remote viewer on a computer with display scaling it scales the opposite way to what it's supposed to, making the image smaller rather than larger.

.vv files will also try to open with kate from Firefox, even though the system default application is set correctly as it works fine from a file manager.

This is on CachyOS with KDE.

Have you heard of FreeBSD or Haiku? You could become even more extreme than us Linux users. Think about it!

I know what that is don't worry. In fact I come under the same label after Aspergers was discontinued

 

I've come to know a number of people who show lots of neurodivergent traits but who aren't necessarily autistic or otherwise neurodivergent, or are but only just cross the border. Do we have specific terms, research, or anything towards these types of people. I know at one point there was the term BAP (Broad Autism Phenotype), but this sounds very clinical. It's also personally been unusual to deal with as I can't really treat them like I would any other autistic person, or like a neurotypical.
