They are men with one or more extra X chromosomes. Men. Some men who suffer from this syndrome can be treated so as to be able to impregnate women with their own sperm. I assume that this only works for men who have partial/mosaic Klin

It is "that simple", those who suffer from Klinefelter syndrome are men. With modern fertility therapy some of them can impregnate women. You can try to complicate matters but this does not add veracity to such statements, it just

Don't you realise the same can be said about many of those categories I mentioned elsewhere in this thread? For sure those communists only are out to topple out liberal democracy, why would we support that? Those AFA-anarchists are onl

WRT those phones, if they can connect to your own system at home you can run a tunnel - Wireguard, OpenVPN or anything similar - to it and escape to the outside that way. This is more or less the same method as used to safely use public Wif

I only put a notice - not a disclaimer - in a message if and when I edited it to add something to it which substantially changes the meaning. Typo's, completions and such don't necessitate any explanation.

I wonder why you feel the need to bring up identity here. Don't, it does not add anything, detracts from the discussion and leads to nothing good.

That depends on whether you're talking about nature beavers or nurture beavers. Nature beavers just build 'm and as such seem to have been able to massively outcompete nurture beavers, the fate of which has yet to be determined.

Why would you recover those drones? Just blow them up on target or when no longer needed, simple - just like you do with missiles. The advantage drones can have is a longer loiter time, missiles are a lot faster -> combine the two by hav
