Most people dont think the earth us flat because there is evidence of this.
If most people think a thing - any thing - it is because there is evidence of it.
There is evidence that you are very hard to understand.
Well yes if you are not born with testes then you are indeed not male. Hence testes are fundamental to being a male.
Once again using hyperbolic examples to try and make your case. Maybe you should look at the definition of fundamental: "forming a necessary base or core" so yes if it's fundamental to the game it has to be included. If RnG is fundamental to RPGs then yes it has to be included. If it's fundamental is it absolute, it's not a generalisation.
Well please educate me please write for me the the generalised and absolute versions of the following statements:
"RPGs are about character skill; not player twitch skills."
"There will be less RNG with Action Combat skills, but there will still be some because Ashes is an RPG, not an FPS."
I'm interested to see what fuzzy logic you are going to use to ensure you are the one that is correct in this debate.
P.S. I am English so my grasp of the english language I'm sure will suffice, maybe even exemplary!
Gender identity is a complicated topic. I won't speak on the subject as this most certainly is not the appropriate medium for such a discussion.
I would however like to point out that definitions of gender are usually not as uninvolved as your statement suggests and therefore may not be a fitting representation of the argument you're presenting.
I'm not talking about gender identity, I'm talking about sex. Gender identity isn't complicated at all. Gender identity is simply anything you identify with. Hence people have gender identities that have gone as far as being male, female, dog, dragons anything goes with the current use of the word because the mind can be identified with anything.
I would first like to reiterate that I would prefer not to discuss this here. Feel free to DM me but I don't imagine I'll be continuing this discussion here.
The word male also pertains to gender and is not exclusively categorized by sex. Your intent may have been to use male's strictly biological definition but you did not provide any clarification for this at the time and instead left your meaning open for interpretation and misrepresentation.
Gender
Definition reads; either of the two sexes (male and female), especially when considered with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones. The term is also used more broadly to denote a range of identities that do not correspond to established ideas of male and female.
This statement could potentially be skewed as offensive without a more detailed explanation of your meaning.
I don't believe I ever claimed the definition or meanings of gender identity were complicated, I specifically stated the topic was complicated.
Yes and you fell in way before this discussion
I joke, but just to explain, for your benefit, even if you don't see it that way:
"truely wrote: »
Well yes if you are not born with testes then you are indeed not male.
This statement could potentially be skewed as offensive without a more detailed explanation of your meaning."
This is pretty much the definition of being male. Definition of male: "of or denoting the sex that produces gametes, especially spermatozoa, with which a female may be fertilized or inseminated to produce offspring." So if you are offended by the definition of a word I think you need to re-evaluate how you are using words or your perspective on them. No doubt you've picked up certain ideas where these terms get confusingly intermingled and on purposefully obfuscated to win silly arguments. I'd recommend mentally seperating using male and female sexes from gender, use genders can be cis male/female or masculine and feminine as an alternative etc etc. all the best.
The definition of male also reads; relating to men or the male gender. You have paraphrased and misrepresented select information in an embarrassing attempt to support what is likely an uneducated opinion.
I'm not sure why you're so eager to die on this hill. Your wounded pride isn't worth this.
