But there is a huge difference.
I do not believe that gender is anything other than the sex of the individual. I do not subscribe to just making things up as we go along in order to justify behavior.

I'd like to say good post!
But I don't want to be accused of quadruple solidarity.

If I laugh at this comment, does that make me culpable of de facto quintruple solidarity?

Ok, I am the odd girl out on this one.
IMO VPL's point about solidarity has been verified by a denying passel, zealously.

And if I agree with you, will it be a reverse SEXIST-tuple solidarity?

I guess OP won't answer because he has logged off.

Do I hear septuple? Going once going twice, sold to the reverse sexistuple. So I guess we should put this thread to bed.

If I say I agree and don't saw with whom I agree then do we get to say it's not solidarity? Does that make everyone/anyone happy? Is there anyway to win here?
BTW Red, toooooo funny! Not because of anything but a funny remark no matter what sex said it.

Naw, at this point we've veered off and are just having some fun with each other.

Why is it important to know if a poster is a vegetarian or a carnivore?

Sounds like a ham sandwich being made into a banquet!

Interesting fun topic, I also like to know where people are from. It helps me know how much I should value your opinion.

i can't believe how ridiculous this has become. OMG, it's a simple lighthearted question, meant to be fun (I'm sure) and it's turned into this. If it bothers you that much, for heavens sake - DON'T ANSWER IT, but please get the heck over it. Go on to the next question about driveway pavers or attic stairs.
