Firstly, there are three women, not two. Secondly, you know that one of them is 100% into you, but you do not know which one. Maybe you're meeting a blind date who is as into your obscure weird fetish as you are but stupidly forgot to agree on a token of recognition in your eagerness to meet. You also know that any other women will be repulsed by your sick fetish. If you broach the subject of your fetish with someone who is not into it, she will kick you in the balls, neutering you, and subsequently have you arrested, ruining any chance you have of getting laid. However, you have no other way of ascertaining her identity. With nothing to go on, you strike up a conversation with a random woman Whilst she is your captive audience, another woman gets up and leaves. You know this cannot be the woman you were intending to meet; she will never meet another man as sick as you. One other woman that you didn't talk to is still waiting by the bar.

So, do you bring up your fetish to the woman you're talking to? Or do you go to the woman by the bar and apologise for the confusion? What if there were four women in the bar, and two of them left, besides one by the bar and the one you're awkwardly making small talk with? What if there were five, and three of them left over the course of the evening? What if there were fifty women at first and at the end of the night there's just two left, the one you're talking to, and another who's been sitting by herself all evening?

Yeah that's the Monty Hall Problem alright but I'm just pointing out how absurd it is that the success probability of a group concentrates into one choice once the rest have been eliminated. Isn't that the standard reasoning behind switching?
>>
>>16143978
It only happens when there is a specific reason for it. Probability is not an inherent property something possesses, but an expression of our relative certainty about it. So as women leave the bar, it becomes more likely that the ones who stay behind have an interest in you.

Whether or not you are an idiot isn't up for debate. You're an idiot.

Putting forward an argument would legitimize the idea you aren't an idiot as potentially on the same mental level as your average human, or even dog, and that shouldn't be done.

Obviously I could explain why you're an idiot, but you've done a better job of that than I ever could. I have nothing more persuasive to add.

Going by this logic, Americans in general can't speak English either, since the language you faggots speak doesn't sound anything like what Bongs speak.

Do you ever think a godlike alien being is responsible for allowing causality(evolution/adaptability/etc) to produce such intelligent beings, AKA humans?

Could nature's one way cause-and-effect, or evolution, truly produce such intelligent beings as humans on its own?

Just how delicate and precious is life really? Obviously we have no way of going back in time or looking at life from beginning to end in its full totality.

You can travel to the past, you just can’t alter your own past. The moment you step into the past you’re automatically entering a different past-present-future.

You cannot save *your* Abraham Lincoln.

Travelling into the future is just going fast.
>>
>>16145717
you can't travel to the past tho. that's just fantasy, nobody traveled to the fucking past.
the only time travel is in the future of other reference frames, that's it. and you are not in them. and you can't do the equivalent of that for the past. travel to a past in which you are not because of the fact that you traveled in the past. like it would be if you would travel close to speed of light, you'd travel in Earth's future, where you weren't all that time, you were in your ship. hence why you can't travel in your own future/past, or any past, doesn't make sense.

I don’t care if you can or can’t go into the past, although the idea that you can’t is more absurd. You either can or you can’t. There is no third alternative.

What I do care about, is that you can’t technically change your past. You can only alter a different past-present. It would make no sense otherwise.

Post op trannys are over 10x more like to commit suicide than pre-op trannys

https://www.auajournals.org/doi/10.1097/JU.0000000000001971.20#T1

>Although the overall proportion of those experiencing a psychiatric encounter was similar between the vaginoplasty and phalloplasty groups, suicide attempts were more common in the vaginoplasty group (4.4% vs. 1.7%, p=0.033). The rate of a psychiatric encounter occurring after surgery if an episode prior surgery occurred was 33.9% and 26.5% for the vaginoplasty and phalloplasty groups.

There's a difference between a stereotype and a norm. A stereotype about men, for example, is that they think about sex every five seconds. A norm, however, is that men are required to use the bathroom that has a stick figure without a skirt on it. Norms are enforced by society at large. It's all well and good when you don't "conform to stereotypes" but if you fall outside the norm, people are going to try to correct you.
That there is a further difference between gender identity and stereotype should be obvious from the fact that you have stereotypes specifically about trans people.

Construction and validation of a scale for assessing critical social justice attitudes
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/sjop.13018
>DISCUSSION
>The studies also assessed how having critical social justice attitudes relates to well-being variables. Many authors have previously linked critical social justice attitudes to poorer mental well-being in their work implicitly, but have not studied them directly (e.g., Lukianoff & Haidt, 2018). In our samples (Study 1 and Study 2), having high CSJAS (critical social justice attitude scale) scores was linked to anxiety, depression, and a lack of happiness. However, Study 2 indicated that this lower level of mental well-being was mostly associated with being on the political left and not specifically with having a high CSJAS score. The association between lower mental health and supporting the political left is in line with what other studies have found prior to this one (Bernardi, 2021; Gimbrone et al., 2022).

tl;dr science has demonstrated conclusively that picrel is what you look like
