> And BTW, the person making that argument before the Supreme Court yesterday was a woman, and one of the justices who is going to vote to eviscerate Roe is a woman, so this is not just the patriarchy at work.
That conclusion doesn't necessarily follow the supporting statements, though I agree with your overall sentiment.
- thurn 5y ago(also the person, Mississippi Solicitor General Scott Stewart, does not to my knowledge identify as a woman)
- lisper 5y agoMy mistake apparently. I remember reading yesterday amongst all the coverage that the person arguing for Mississippi was a woman, but now I can't find that story. (Maybe it was retracted because it wasn't true.) I'd edit my comment but the deadline has passed.
- what_is_orcas 5y agoI totally missed that! You're right, I was just more focused on the logic.
- notron 5y agoHe wouldn't be a woman even if he tried to identify as one. Everyone else would still identity him as the man that he actually is.
