   Though it is nice to see that there's discourse on the topic of rhetoric, I guess. Perhaps not the most constructive, but ... Progress?

dear lords. I've tried to keep up with this thread, but I'm now confused as to how any of the last few pages deal with the original topic.  Honestly, I think the original topic got lost within the first few pages.   umm... Carry on, I guess?

I think it may be a cognate of Godwin's Law...you know, the one that states "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1".

But in OUR forums, at least recently, the end state appears to be transphobia.

I can't see that in anyone's post.  Did I miss something?

Males seem to have only a chance of survival in SL as a whole if feminizing themselves in any way possible, which of course to real men lowers the incentive to participate in SL at all.

This thread shows it all.

Yes. I brought it home (again) .

ETA : Mind you, glanced over the other pages only and not even starting to look over all these tl:dr's.

5 instances of that word per search engine.

Nothing. Resting one' s case is not gender specific.

I thought your case was...

I know you're just trolling this thread but you've yet to offer any evidence of that particular line.

Sorry, @Desiree Moonwinder, I could have been clearer in what I said.  I was trying to convey the fact that I had not seen anyone demonstrate transphobia in what they said, not remark on the mere instance of the word.

Perhaps I should have been clearer, too.  Godwin's Law does not require that a poster BE a Nazi, or espouse fascism.  Only that someone's post compares another's viewpoint or position to Nazis or Hitler.  Similarly, my observation was not that anyone here was transphobic, or espousing that view.  But there IS a very heated discussion about gender, sex, and societal norms regarding same going on here.  The same discussion has arisen in several other threads lately.  Hence, my comparison.

EDIT:  Oh...and

Calling me a troll for these remarks I made, is the obvious elephant in the room here. ;)

Why? I haven't had my coffee yet this morning and my eyes are still blurry so I might be missing some coherent statements you've made about making SL more welcoming for the menfolk, but I don't recall anything in between the meme storm.
