Hard no to the first question, but the scientific community is still debating about the second one.

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

I've been cracked for a couple years at this point, there's just no established scientific consensus if "nonbinary transbian mailbomber (she / her)" counts as a feeeeeemale gender identity or if it dumps the entire concept of binary gender into a burning garbage can.
Dumping the entire concept of binary gender into a burning garbage can is the only acceptable gender.
Into the trash it goes! 
If your gender identity doesn't dump the entire concept of binary gender into a burning garbage can you should just give it back, you're obviously not doing anything worthwhile with it.
On a practical level, defaulting to pronouns is still supportive of people struggling to fit their identity into the existing binary. My opinions on gender, while 100% unimpeachably correct, come from a position of privilege within the existing structure. Gender is like the stock market, it's all imaginary bullshit but it still impacts pretty much every aspect of your life.
yes, male 14.4%
yes, female 1.8%
Fellas. What the fuck? My bros. Some of y'all need to beat the fuck out of some of your associates.

agreed on principle (fuck patriarchy) but I feel compelled to point a few things out.

twitter polls are dogshit since they are only reflective of the opinions of a given person's followers. richard hanania is some right wing pundit (I had to look him up), so of course his audience is like this.

since way more male-identifying are answering his poll than female-identifying, of course the numbers for both "yes" and "no" are higher. All this tells you is that 88.1% of the poll's respondents are "male". The remaining 11.9% are female. So you just have a much bigger male sample size. Which makes sense. It's a male right wing pundit on twitter. This ties back with point #1

If you want to find out the actual yes-to-no ratio, you have to isolate the gender. 1.8/10.2 = 0.1765.... so about 17.65% of "females" answered "yes" ... 14.4/73.7 = 0.1954... so about 19.54% of "males" answered "yes". Once you isolate the gender, you find out that both the "males" and "females" following this right wing pundit on twitter answered similarly. Of course the "males" have a much larger sample size.
Ms maxwell voted yes
i don't know why, but I thought the "CSA" in the content warning stood for confederate states of america... thought this was gonna be a thread about dunking on slave owners 
This tweet should be grounds for a ban from the whole internet
The framing of this question is an extreme indictment of the material conditions of our society.
no option for "she gets the money and a protective order, epstein gets the wall, her parents get a few decades of reeducation, and we figure out who that body double was that died in prison"
Epstein gets the wall AFTER he testifies and tells us everything.
Sounds like he's polling a plan of his own.
Using the precious finite time on earth and the near-infinite potential of the human imagination to think of hypothetical situations where it's okay for a fourteen year old girl to be assaulted by Jeffrey Epstein.

meanwhile middle class leftoids screeching about "I'm not a fascist just because I invest in the stock market"
16.2% ✍
This mf gets money dumped into his accounts by vampires just for saying the most awful shit he can come up with. Sure, this is a normal, healthy , functioning society and totally not a death cult, why not?
The results are in; I'm sorry David, but you are a pedophile. Ok now, up against the wall. Cigarette? Blindfold? Nighty night.
For refrence:
16% of men replied yes 15% of women replied yes
Dont't forget about the very strong selection bias in this poll.
The fuck my NB option at
