Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
As an actual woman, with the chromosomes to prove it, I really resent Merriam-Webster re-defining me out of existence. By taking away what I am and by giving away for free my physiological and psychological and biological status, along with my decades of experience as an actual female, they are trivializing me. They are saying just anybody who claims to be woman can be, by using words, exactly what I am. I resent that. My lifetime experience as a female includes some dues I had to pay, experiences the boys could not and would not have. I couldn't have their experiences, they couldn't have mine. Why are we allowing these people to gaslight our culture and try to force people to say what they know is false. By saying this lie is true I diminish myself and every single woman I have ever known. I would be stealing from my own kind. And for what? I won't do it. Feelings don't trump reality.
