The Unbearable Whiteness Of Being An Academic
If there is so much racism in America, why do white people want to be not white? Why are they giving up their supposed “privilege”?

“Transphobic” Lesbians
This is getting ridiculous. If I don’t want to sleep with a guy who thinks he’s a woman, it’s not because I’m “transphobic.” It’s because I am extremely heterosexual, and have not only zero, but negative interest in physically interacting with, or even looking at male genitals. Now if it’s an attractive woman who thinks she’s a man, that’s a different story, but it doesn’t seem like a good idea to engage in sexual relations with people who are funny in the head.
