I struggle to understand what she said upset people?


I google her tweet, for me nothing wrong about her statement.

What upset people?

reply

She said men have peepee and women have vajaja. That upset a lot of geniuses out there that didn't get to learn that science fact in kindergarten.

“She said men have peepee and women have vajaja. That upset a lot of geniuses out there that didn't get to learn that science fact in kindergarten.”

But Zilkin, what about the male and female brains?

There are no such things of course and science proves it but why are you disregarding it?

reply

Females and males have different brains among other things. Different bone structure, different brains, different genitals, different skin, and different on a cellular level, different chromosome and different genes. Different psychology, thought pattern, skill development aptitude, different instincts, different sex drive, different hormones, different effect of the same hormones on their cells. Should I go on or we get the picture?

reply

Science points out that there are insignificant differences between the male and female brains.

This is the back up excuse for the trans community. They were “born with the opposite sex brains and the brain is what determines gender and nothing else...”

reply

I doubt they were born with opposite sex brains because there are differences between male and female skulls and between the brains however I am willing to bet my left ball trans people still have the brain structure of their own sex and not of the opposite sex.

reply

I’ve read some very rigorous scientific studies that say the differences are highly insignificant and that there’s no accounting for whether they were due to conditioning.

There are huge differences between men and women of course, mostly all based on societal conditioning.

reply

I think in iq tests men regularly have better scores at spatial tasks and women at verbal tasks, there are other differences as well probably. I don't think it is sociological I think the mental difference is biological but still that doesn't mean trans people have the opposite sex brains, they are biological men or women and have according brains

reply

No one is capable of taking an IQ test before a certain age and after much social conditioning. The human brain develops and is influenced by habit and psychological conditions. There’s just no way to study the differences when conditioning starts to form the organ from day 1.

They can’t do MRI’s on newborn infants.

reply

I bet a woman can put a bra on faster too , doesent mean they are genetically better at it than men

reply

Well men are just better at certain mental tasks on average, which is logical since it was required that men be really good at hunting or fighting and planning. It was a difference between life and death.

reply

You are assuming that all brains that score higher on certain tasks had physical structures within them that are necessary to score those marks. That is not the case.

Having a physically abnormal brain can certainly help, just like it can hinder, but the average brain can score a genius IQ or it can score below 100. The biggest deciding factor is the conditioning the brain went through. Was it put in the right situations for it to become good at something, or wasn't it?

Outside of breathing, digesting and sleeping, there aren't many things humans can do without practicing it first. Being placed in a gender role can greatly impact the activities you practice.

reply

Protecting the offspring was and still is the most important thing in nature and that is primarily up to the females of every species. It doesn't lessen the importance of males, or mean that they are ANY less valuable to survival though.

Women, since they have been allowed education over the last 100 years or so, have started to outscore men on iq tests in developed areas which only proves how important education is, not the one sex is 'better' than the other. There are more male Mensa members than female and much more men in math and sciences than women, the iq scores are important however and we are all very lucky that women have caught up and surpassed men in a tiny way because that means a better future for ALL of us. More people will be involved in making out lives better!

This stuff is endlessly fascinating to me and male and female brains ARE different. Women have more white brain matter and men have more gray matter. We don't have a ton of knowledge about what difference this makes other than early tests that indicate that women are better at multi tasking and men are better at focusing on a single task.

Anywho, thought I'd chime in because this subject is interesting to me.

reply

There must be some difference considering the brain has to control the functions of completely different organs in males and females.

Tell that to the trans people lol. If it’s true, then there would be no way for a man who lacks a uterus to claim he has a FEMALE BRAIN

reply

But that's a trans person saying they think like a female. It's an opinion that can't be falsified. The definitions of what comprises female thought processes and male processes haven't been determined yet.

reply

i don't appreciate being pigeonholed

reply

Left-leaning folks get upset when you don't agree with their gibberish. What she stated is exactly how I feel about the issue. I might take it a step further (sorry, they are mentally ill), but all she said was that they are not natural biological women. They don't deserve to be discriminated against, violence against them is clearly wrong, but they aren't women. Nothing wrong with saying that.

reply

I’m about as far left leaning as anyone I know and I agree with her.

It’s an Orwellian nightmare.

reply


I've always been more central, but the leftist conveyor belt has been slipping left underneath my feet and moving further away. As a result of me staying the way I always was, I'm now a right wing nut job.

reply

Right. According to them anyway.

It’s a sinister plot by the world’s richest people/media owners to pit us against each other and strip us of our human rights, starting with the women.

reply

the only thing I have a particular problem with is that she retroactively made Dumbledore a homosexual.

reply

We already discussed that, you're late to the party. Just kidding, we can discuss it again if you want.

reply

Transgenderism is wrong, not Rowling. Be thankful for what you have. It is these people who run around barking and screaming about greed. Well, let them practise what they preach. If I may say so, transgenderism is quite freakish.

reply

The big problem is that some people feel that they have a right to silence anyone who disagrees with them.
It is really ridiculous if you're not allowed to say that a person is their biological gender.

reply

She didn't say anything untrue, immoral, offensive, or harmful. She spoke the truth, but when that diverges from leftist ideology, the speaker is cancelled.

reply

Check out this headline from HuffPo, a leader in the march towards Totalitarianism under the guise of liberalism:

Mourning The Ellen DeGeneres And J.K. Rowling We Used To Know


They saw “WE” as if anyone reading is on their cancelling bandwagon. They lump Rowling in with DeGeneres who has been accused of workplace abuse. Rowling simply stated her views, which most people worldwide agree with. The paper is trying to hate monger and tell us what to think. They make me sick.

Verizon owns HuffPo and is worth 150 billion dollars. You do the math.

That is a good point about using “we”. They want to imply that no one could disagree with them.

That’s the new MSM THING It’s not just how they write, they own the major internet community platforms and they are censoring, deleting, CANCELLING anyone who disagrees with their insanity. It’s not just trans issues it’s Covid-19. People in the U.K. are losing their jobs. People in Australia are getting dragged out of their houses and arrested for wanting to protest the lockdown. It’s 1984 in 2020 people.

I seem to recall that she was unhappy with the idea of people taking young teenage kids who identified as gay, and pressuring/manipulating them into getting a sex change. She compared it to some of the unethical eugenics programs that had been done in the past.
