Does Ben Shapiro have a point?

[Juxtapose]

It's a YouTube short that is about 50 seconds.

When he starts talking about subjectivity and onwards he really nails it in my opinion.

"if you are trying to define male and female with reference to any subjective category that cannot be identified with any metric whatsoever besides how you feel today, I challenge whether that is scientific or whether that is merely a self-perception being guided by political ideology."

I agree 100%.
The idea that people can choose their gender only became popular when the pharma and medical establishments began promoting it for profit. Before that, people could "feel" any way they wanted. They could be LGB, transvestite, or whatever, but they weren't under the illusion that they could physically change genders.

The trans agenda is being pushed to the detriment of individuals and society. Trans-humanism and eugenics are at play.

[Juxtapose]

I agree with you but I think I should bring up a quote I found online that clarifies some terms a bit.

"By mid-century, the term “sex”, which theretofore had meant “biological sex”, became short for “sexual intercourse” (we’d already seen the appearance of words like “sexy”). I suspect the introduction of “gender” (which was used to describe a grammatical phenomenon) in psychological literature was happily seized on as a replacement for the vaguely dirty-sounding “sex.” Even people who have little interest in the rights and concerns of sexual minorities like trans people will often use “gender.”

We should very firmly place the word gender back in the linguistics realm and not let these political ideologues seize it.

[NYCQuestions1976]

Biology for the win.

[NYCQuestions1976]

Thanks for Most Helpful. 👍

[Billlewis]

Oh, absolutely. As I'm sure you probably know, there is one, and only one reason why all this identification, classification, segregation and the staggering amount of class warfare being fomented by our elected officials and media mavens is occurring -- because they're bent on weaponizing our differences to maximize their chances of tearing down America for profit.

[Juxtapose]

Agreed! Once people learn to live and let live while also keeping a firm grasp on reality we can take on these corrupt assholes.

[Juxtapose]

You're pretty aware of politically, you should find a politically active woman who can give you what you need.

[Billlewis]

I've pretty much given up on trying to defeat them here on their turf; I've decided to either leave the country outright or, at the very least, move away from the continental U. S.

[Juxtapose]

What other country will have the same free speech laws and gun laws?

[Billlewis]

I'm not as concerned about that as I am the ever increasing likelihood that some kid will come up behind me and smack me upside the head for being an old white guy, or being struck by a stray bullet, etc.

[Juxtapose]

If you stay away from the cities you should be fine. Suburbs and villages are where it's at.

[Billlewis]

True.

We are humanity and our very existence is entirely possible only by subverting nature around us for survival, culture and meaning in the universe.

That's why we created the internet to share videos and memes. If we found someone lost in the wilderness raised from nothing but walrus they do not full understand what it means to be human but can learn if we accept and love that person. They will be memeing with the best of us in a year or so.

So why give a fuck ben is saying. I'm blind as fuck without glasses am I supposed to roll over and die for biological sake? Fuck you. I'm guessing the similar logic is for trans people. No one is rolling over and dying for not being perfectly born.

[Juxtapose]

Your example about someone in the forest is completely incorrect. If you don't learn how to speak within a certain time frame, you're not going to be able to speak very well.. ever. There's a girl who was raised by wolves and she can barely speak.

No one is going to die because we do not chemically castrate minors or mutilate them. Never before in history has this wild claim been made that we need to sterilize & mutilate minors or they will kill themselves. It's completely bullshit, especially with the fact that trans suicide rates are highest seven years after transition.

[Juxtapose]

If this was a real thing you would see an epidemic of suicide throughout history that would be very consistent. You would have people leaving behind diaries of their struggle.

[RavVid]

I think he nails it. In another video he does make the point there are more masculine and less masculine men together with less feminine women and more feminine women and that is about the limit of gender fluidity.

The is a very funny video of a woman reporting a flasher to police but unable to tell if it was a male penis or a female penis that was flashed at her.

[gorydetails]

Of course. But debating the mentally ill is kind of unfair. Even though I do it to odd be me every day.

[Juxtapose]

Odd is good intentioned and reasonably smart but I definitely disagree with the majority of his opinions.

[OddBeMe]

I don’t know what “politics” the woman was talking about. But Shitpiro forgets the same percent of animal species are homosexual as humans, from what we evidence we can record. Interesting….

And if bears have an idea that they’re a mother to a baby bear even tho it’s a male? Maybe. can't know what’s in a bears head…idiot Shapiro as usual.

[Juxtapose]

Transgender bears? Are you out of your damn mind?

[Juxtapose]

You do know that males can take care of children without having a pussy, right?

[OddBeMe]

Wow…I have to dumb this down further. Ok.

I’m guessing bears (brought up by idiot Shapiro) have no view of male and female. Only in terms of mating and babies. I am positive male bears have to take “female” roles in caring for young bears. Maybe it’s only .25% like the percentage of trans humans. Amount of gay animals seem to oddly equal gay humans.

[Juxtapose]

You are insane. You're literally saying you know what a bear thinks when people barely understand what other people think.

Even by your own logic there wrong. If they don't have a concept of male or female then there is no concept of being trans. This is so fucking stupid, there are no trans animals.

[Juxtapose]

*you're wrong

[Juxtapose]

@NYCQuestions1976 trans bears bro.

[Juxtapose]

And by the way, you are trying to skirt but Ben Shapiro said ultimately.

He is saying: "if you are trying to define male and female with reference to any subjective category that cannot be identified with any metric whatsoever besides how you feel today, I challenge whether that is scientific or whether that is merely a self-perception being guided by political ideology."

[Juxtapose]

*what Ben Shapiro said

[NYCQuestions1976]

@Juxtapose Well you can teach them to juggle and ride the unicycle in the Diet Soviet Union. 😂

[OddBeMe]

And I’m saying Shitpiro is pointing to science like it’s the end all explanation. Until we get to abortion, which you fucks do a 180.

Human science defines males and females. Human society and people can call themselves what they want.

[NYCQuestions1976]

@OddBeMe Once you're 18, you're an adult, and more power to you. However feelings still don't beat biology.

Also, let's not pretend that there are no abortion allowed in the United States because Roe Verses Wade was overturned. There are 37 out of 50 states (74%) in the United States that have their choice cutoff set at 12 weeks or later (on par with the Union Of European Socialist Republics), 22 of those 37 states (44% of the country) allow late-term, third trimester abortions, and 8 of those 22 states (plus Washington DC) have absolutely zero abortion restrictions.

[OddBeMe]

@NYCQuestions1976 Sure but the contradiction of you “small govt libertarians” is astounding. You hate it until you love it.

My basic rule: keep power between people and their doctors. Let them express themselves however they want.

[NYCQuestions1976]

@OddBeMe I'm actually fine with that, as long as it's "Your body, your choice, your wallet.", or "My body, my choice, my wallet." It's textbook hypocrisy to not want the government to be involved in personal medical decisions, but then expect that same government to PAY for those personal medical decisions.

[OddBeMe]

@NYCQuestions1976 well, we pay for old people and disabled get medical care. But don’t get between them and their doctor.

Buts its good we found common ground!

[Dargil]

Generally, he does. I don't listen to him much because he talks too fast. You need time to digest what people say.

[exitseven]

Ben is correct in his reasoning. It is easy to see why he is banned on most college campuses.

[Staximus]

Two men or two women can't make a baby. That's biology. You can't change your gender like you do your clothes.

[normalice]

Probably not since he is a paid improv actor with no incentive to say anything honest.

[Juxtapose]

That's a heavy accusation that should come with some proof.

[normalice]

It is easy to prove to anyone who isn't eager to suspend the basic principles of logic and reason in their determination to believe he is some truthspeaker. Which as we have established pretty thoroughly excludes you.

[Juxtapose]

Says the one who thinks CNN and their mistakes is because of republicans.

[normalice]

I can't figure out what you're trying to say with that sentence.

[disgustingweebtrash]

It's correct, but I detest Ben Shapiro, he wants Western countries to be these open and diverse societies but Israel must remain an ethnostate. He is deplorable and just another slimy tribe member.

[AngryCarl]

Has he discussed gender identity with members of the walrus community? I very much doubt it.

[Kelly6]

@Juxtapose I used to think he was smart guy, but later found out he's also a guy who creates and promotes propaganda

[Juxtapose]

I have had the opposite experience. I used to think he was nothing but propaganda but now he has mellowed out and become more moderate.

Regardless, what he says here is not wrong.

[Kelly6]

@Juxtapose
you will understand when you see his other videos which are not related to gender or so

[Juxtapose]

I don't agree fully with anyone and some of my closest friends whole views I find abominable.

[Juxtapose]
