Not that I really want to start another trans debate, but aren't one's genitalia a defining trait of their gender?

Sex, not gender. Don't confuse the two.

Not necessarily.  As I have a dear friend that's actually intersex (in her case, she has breasts, a cock half the size of normal, one half-functioning ovary and a partially-formed womb), genitalia isn't always the best outward identifier.  A lot of folks hear her voice and assume male, but chromosomal structure actually landed her with what amounts to an XXY.
Damn, genetics, you scary.

She's also a dear friend :3 I wouldn't trade her or her boyfriend for the world.

Awww. My point is, Genetics: they can fuck up your life before you're even alive.

Good on him, then. Hope lots of other celebs follow the example.

I guess I'm a terrorist now for wanting to stockpile food and ammo, and buy a few more guns like AKs, Saiga 12s, FAL, AR-15, 870 shotgun, 1911, and more, and expand my already sizable knife collection. Hmm, now where'd I put that dang turban? What? It's what I do that interests me. Guess other hobbyists like train enthusiast also get labelled terrorists. Guess I should hide those train magazines too while I'm at it...

Maybe not a terrorist, but definitely wasteful.

How amusing that he thinks all terrorists are Muslim, AND that all Muslims wear turbans. I don't think I like him.

Part of me feels bad that he had to trot out that sign from 50 years ago.

Wasteful how?

Amusing how you think I was serious and not saying it sarcastically. The kind of people who would think I'm a terrorist would also probably think that all terrorists wear turbans.
History is full of maniacs, my friend, men and women of intelect, highly perceptive individuals, who's brilliant minds know neither restraint nor taboo. Such notions are the devils we must slay for the edification of pony-kind. Even if said edification means violating the rules of decency, society, and rightousness itself.

Oh. Derp. For some reason I thought that was someone from outside being quoted. Sorry.
