Ew, that's sexist.
Yeah, number me among the multitudes whose frustration has turned into amusement. If I hear one over-earnest social justice warrior intoning "cis-normative" in a solemn voice I'm afraid I'm not even going to try not to laugh out loud. Enough's enough, guys. Crackpot social theories are losing their currency as fast as love beads and bell-bottoms did. Groovy, baby.
As the author points out, we do the mentally ill no favors by validating their delusions. With an anorexic skinny isn't a social construct and dead is dead. The sort of fantasy life you have to cling to in order to insist otherwise is the arena of small children protected by adults from the consequences of their games of let's-pretend. Outlawing adults is not the road to freedom, it's the road to destruction.
Great points.
What you say about children and adults is exactly the case. The government seeks to be our “parents” and treats us a children. Or worse, they seek to be our god. Sadly, for many, they have succeded.
