hes as much of a hero as osama bin laden Bin Laden can could claim more kills; he also had a lamer political objective.
Since when was Nelson Mandela a Zionist? |

| Geekonychus clearly doesn't know a thing. Some of the most active members in the men's rights movement are women (GirlWritesWhat and TyphonBlue, for example). Furthermore, some of the male members are male victims of sexual harassment, sexual assault or even rape - does that sound like they're just... |

| So there is this kid who had hung out with our group of friends. Let's just call him O. My friend, N, decided to befriend O because O didn't have a lot of friends. None of my friends really like O, but N decided to stay friends with O out of sympathy. We learned that O had Asperger's. They know I ha... |

| Nowadays, I'm reconsidering whether or not I identify as a feminist due to some of feminism's failures to be intersectional. Oftentimes, the more privileged women would silence the voices of the less privileged women (e.g. Women of Color, transwomen, etc.). The fact that Geekonychus said that MRM wo... |

| I've identified as a feminist for a while (I don't think that women are superior to men or anything like that), but I am curious about the Men's Rights Movement. So far, I know that it brings up the issue of men being raped, men not having sufficient counseling for domestic abuse, and men not having... |

This is sort of a group discussion/chat for Jews on the spectrum. Let me introduce myself.
I was diagnosed with autism at 18 months. My family members and I are Ashkenazi Jews, technically Conservative, though we don't practice as much as we used to. We live in Los Angeles. |

| It is not accurate to say "non-genetic" the situation is better described as "genes plus" or epigenetics: the way that gene expression is impacted by factors in the cellular environment. A typical example that is specifically mentioned in this study is DNA methylation. There are no "epigenetic effe... |
