I’m sad that I live in a world where people think they need the word “transvestigate.”
Fuckin pansy ass participation trophy snowflakes think they’re too good for phrenology /s
Looks like phrenology is back on the menu boys!
I’m surprised magas care so much about the pope considering they don’t follow any christian morals or tenets.
It’s ragebait, American fascists have always hated Catholics. At least in part just because so many immigrants are Catholic.
This ain’t new
I’m not an expert but I believe the pope is for Catholicism and not Christianity.
Its all the same lie.
TIL Martin Luthor was the first Christian.
Martin was the front figure, his brother Lex Luthor worked behind the scenes to get all the deals.
Catholics and Protestants are both Christians, Catholicism is pretty unified in doctrine, and Protestants are a large group of very diverse denominations of Christianity. When I was forced to go to church, my pastor would often joke about Baptists forming new denominations over differing opinions on drape colors. Outside of those two groups, there are tons of other flavors of Christianity. Off the top of my head you’ve got Mormons, Greek Orthodox, Eastern Orthodox, jehovas witnesses, and Oriental Orthodox
Greek Orthodox is actually just a sub-category of Eastern Orthodox for churches that use Greek in official proceedings. Eastern Orthodox has many different churches, all considered equal, split along language, regional, or national borders.
What the everloving fuck is wrong with these people?
Oh, we’re back to measuring skulls lmao
This one always makes me laugh because I have known guys like him with that exact smug look on their face and similar worldviews and none of them had their lives together.
Lmao he’s 100% shorter than 5’7
I’d like to hit him up side the head.
He certainly has a punchable profile.
Does it only sound like it or is he trying to narrow the list down to his cousin?

this shit never actually stopped. it just fell into the background but it was always there, influencing and waiting
OCCIDENTAL HAPLOGROUP B4 IS DONE GIVING ORDERS AROUND HERE. THE INFLUENCE OF THE “HAM SANDWICH RACE” IS WANING."
OFFSHOOTS OF THE SEMENESE PEOPLE INVENTED DISCO WHILE HAVING SEX UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF COCAINE. IT IS A SHAME UPON MY RACE - BUT WHAT IS DONE IS DONE
wait a second, the pope has a giant skull tattoo on his face?
is he in MS-13?Top tier giggles to be found here.
thanks (:
That’s why he was deported to the Vatican.
makes sense
Is the Vatican actually a prisoncamp?
Is that why there are so many pedophiles there?
The hilarious thing about all these fascist trying to claim that the new Pope is woke is that he’s more conservative than Francis.
Prevost opposes the ordination of women to the diaconate, arguing it “doesn’t necessarily solve a problem” and could create new issues.[106]
Prevost opposes euthanasia, abortion, and the death penalty.
Prevost opposed the inclusion of “gender ideology” in Peruvian school curricula, stating it promotes “genders that don’t exist”.[81][121] In 2012, he criticized popular culture’s sympathy for the “homosexual lifestyle” and same-sex families.[122] Prevost expressed reservations about “sympathy for beliefs and practices that contradict the gospel”
Just because he doesn’t hate brown people and doesn’t like trump they’re doing trans phrenology on him lol.
These are all the exact same views that Francis held, almost to the word. The truth is that the Overton Window of the Roman Catholic Church is incredibly narrow. When we talk about a Cardinal being “liberal” or “conservative” that is within this context. In terms of the secular world, the Roman Catholic Church is extremely conservative, even among the most “liberal” cardinals and Popes. Catholics all believe in Catholic dogma, even if they are lenient in how it is applied.

Ah, yes, the bastion of radical progressivism and LGBTQ+ rights, the… Catholic Church?
When every single pope looks like a left-wing extremist to you, you may have strayed too far to the right.
After the advent of DNA testing, many anthropologists and archeologists were embarrassed because skeletal remains were missexed.
Even my A&P textbook had this garbage in it. It claimed racial difference in the skull and sex difference in the Hip bones. But it’s bullshit. The most reliable way to sex a skeleton is with DNA.
‘The Mismeasure of Man’ by Gould is a fascinating history of bio-determinism and psudoscientific attempt to measure it.
The most reliable way to sex a skeleton is to be interested in what they’re interested in, and not say stuff like “ay, babey, you’d looked better with more meat on those bones!” Otherwise, just ride the vibe and see where the mood takes you.
Archaeologist here, maybe it’s just new wave training but widely taught that it’s not an easy task to sex skeletons on morphology alone.
Sure some features appear more commonly amongst men and some more commonly amongst women, but there is considerable overlap.
Pelvis are generally identifiable, but the bio-archaeologists I know prefer to say the skeleton displays female characteristics without providing a definitive biological sex. They have to have some great evidence before claiming for certain.
Also fun fact, you can’t measure this morphology when there’s still skin and muscle fucking attached.
The show Bones had a lot of weirdness, but I did appreciate that they consistently (at least the first few seasons when I was watching) stripped the bones down and even had a bug guy on staff to do it efficiently.
many anthropologists and archeologists were embarrassed because skeletal remains were missexed.
I mean I get it. Impossible to tell without skeletal boobs.
Complete tangent- I’m not up on the new lingo, is sex your presentation to the world, whether you’re xx or xy, or something else? Because I’ve been seeing quite a bit of conflation between sex and gender lately and it’s left me confused.
Typically, “sex” is used in reference to biological characteristics, and “gender” to sociological ones.
So an intersex person might one day discover that their gender doesn’t reflect their sex, but their sex has never actually changed, right? Or if someone were to receive full and adequately administered treatment for their gender dysphoria, their sex wouldn’t change? Just trying to completely peg down any edge cases.
To be clear, humans should be allowed to live comfortably in their own skin. Not jaqing off, just trying to become fully informed.
An intersex person is typically assigned a gender at birth, but so is everyone else. Being intersex just means you aren’t biologically male or female (though I think this might also include people who have sex chromosomes that develop as though they were the other binary sex, but I’m not an expert). Most intersex people don’t typically know they are intersex, and thus they would count as cisgender so long as they identify as the gender they were assigned at birth and transgender if they do not. Thus, if someone had, say XY chromosomes, but was assigned female at birth, they would probably be cis if they identified as female.
However, trans can be a bit of a self-identifying label, and thus someone in that situation might just as well consider themselves trans. There’s a lot of different definitions for trans. Many non-binary people would consider themselves trans since they don’t identify as their assigned gender at birth.
Long story short, gender is complicated. Sex doesn’t change (put a couple asterisks here), but gender is super flexible (also asterisks here.)
Well intersex could be either, both or none. Some are born with something that looks like a vagina and has balls inside of them so they think they are biologically a woman until they try to have kids and it isn’t possible or are together with someone who knows what a vagina “should” look like or it looks kind of like a penis but everyone is a bit unsure. It is a big grey zone, I don’t know if you can even call them biologically anything, if biologically means having one type of genitals. I am not sure if bilogical means anything either way (for intersex). It depends what you want to actually know, if you want kids then no, no biologically kids. But that could be true for someone who is what you would call biologically man or woman any ways.
So yeah one day they may discover they can’t have kids or that they also have balls inside of them, or they have no balls or they have a mix of both or none. Before (and still in some countries) did the parents pick a gender and then a lot of surgery happened to make it look like a typical penis or vagina.
But it is an interesting topic, what is even sex? What do you wish to actually know? Because if it is about kids then sex doesn’t matter instead it would be better to just ask “can you produce x” ( depending on what you produce). Not everyone who is “biologically” can produce what you need anyways. I know many who needed to get a sperm or egg donator (or both) to have kids.
What do you wish to actually know?
The definition of sex, and where it bleeds into gender or doesn’t. I felt like I had a complete understanding of the difference between sex and gender, but there were a few months, a while back, where the terms were used interchangeably and I began to subtly question whether I actually understood them.
Now, several months later, I thought to ask in a relatively neutral space. You guys confirmed that I just happened to see many people misusing words for a bit, which I appreciate.
People play real fast and loose with these terms.
My advice is to do what you’re doing here, which is learn… But to remember to meet people where they’re at.
By these definitions, with sex relating to biological things, you might be tempted to tell someone they can’t just “decide” their sex, by this definition. Don’t do it.
Not saying you would, but resist the urge to get into a semantic argument. Just ask the specific people what they mean by these words when they say them, and roll with it. Prioritize understanding over being understood.
This advice goes for anything, but this is a particularly spicy meatball.
This is excellent advice that I wish I could immediately incorporate into my being. You’ve described alchemy, as far as my technical but inarticulate ass goes. I hope to be able to do this in person some day.
Just to add to the excellent responses, even “biological sex” may be complicated, because you can argue based on different criteria. At birth, genitalia is a relatively accessible and unintrusive way to sex humans, but even at birth other criteria may be available, like a chromosomal analysis. There are also genetic tests, which are closely related to chromosomal sexing, but are not the same. Also, from embryogenic and hormonal evidence you could try to make your case. Most people would comply with all of those, but some people don’t.
“biological sex” may be complicated
Absolutely, and the level of hair splitting you can get into is maddening. It almost seems worth discarding the word entirely, in the world’s current state, as it relates to people.
The most reliable way to sex a skeleton is with DNA.
What about sexing a pope?
Well, I guess you’d check under his skirt or whatever you call it.
Most anthropologists and archaeologists are too old for that.
Dig up their corpse. Put it on trial.
Take them to dinner first and see if y’all click
No joke, that would be so awesome, a year in and he reviews that he is actually she… The mayhem in the Vatican…
Pope: Takes off bald make-up and reveals luscious locks of hair
Popes get to choose their names once sworn in. None has chosen a female name but it remains a possibility…
Then we will see how fast a pope can be unchosen 🤣
There is no legal process for that, just an illegal one 🗡️
Nah they just elect a Pope in France if they don’t like the results of this conclave. After awhile it’s decided one of them was always the real Pope. Kind of like the Japanese emperor.
The Vatican: meh reused plotline
Aside from the obvious, one of the problems with Transvestigators is that they think all kinds of ridiculous people are trans. Frank Zappa, The Rock, Scarlett Johansson, the guy who plays Mac from It’s Always Sunny, JK Rowling, Shaquille O’Neal.
Shaq, for god’s sake!
Shaq, for god’s sake!
You don’t get that big without an unnatural amount of hormones.
JK Rowling? 😂 why. Is her hatred for trans people just the same as closeted gays being anti gay?
Funnily enough, she has does have some quotes out there about how she was envious of boys getting to be boys. She’s obviously not a trans woman but I don’t think you can rule out overcompensating repression.
The obsession with trans people turns into a mental illness. Everything is the fault of trans people.
#borderline personality disorder
Transvestigators: “Trans X will never be real X!”
Also transvestigators: “Trans X are apparently so functionally indistinguishable from biological X that you can’t tell the difference from thousands of hours of footage (including their voice) from public appearances and paparazzi voyeurism taken at almost every possible angle over dozens of years, including childhood pictures. Instead you need to resort to convoluted, pseudoscientific, unreproducibly arbitrary, per-person diagrams of what you allege is their skeleton. This applies to dozens of celebrities. But they’ll never be a real X tho!”
Transvestigators are scum, but I feel if I were trans that these “investigations” of obviously and openly cis people would make me feel more affirmed than basically any other form of external validation.
I really don’t understand that they’re trying to say here. Dude actually has pretty strong zygomatic arches. We can’t all be Abe Lincoln.
They’re saying “I’m a very stupid person, make fun of me”
And make fun of them I shall. I shared this with two friends, both laughed their asses off at the stupidity. Mission complete.
Phrenology is so hot rn
They watched Conclave too !
The internet is bringing back 19th Century eugenics pseudo science. I wonder if they think he has dimples on the back of his skull because he has creole ancestry…
