Hey where the he...Aw, Mikedelic, right on is right! Hey where the heck are ya? We just went downtown with a bunch of our artwork...down to Lolapolooza to see if we could show some of our art. We sold a painting...and then moved down to a restaurant called "Artist's Cafe and sat there for a bit saying hi to people with our art laid out. It was a lot of fun. Are you in Chicagoland yet? It's crazy hot here...just poured us a couple of coconut rum/orange juices...and sitting out back.

I spend a lot of time with peope who really like to talk about this stuff and analyse it. A part of the LGBTQIA community (some day I hope we have the whole alphabet...and peopel will be inclusive of each other!) talk a lot about gender...about our preconcepitions. I don't really have an issue about us putting our foot in our mouth or examining these conceptions and pre-conceptions...or margins...it's when we hold them as a means t avoid communication.<br /><br />If we use gender as a reason to curtail activity or discussion. Sharing our feelings that one sexual orientation, or one gender or intersexuals are "this or that" can be a learning experience IF we talk about it. <br /><br />Some people think if we acknowledge gender...or acknowledge when we marginalize each other...they take umbrage. Why not use the observations as a stepping stone for discussion? We're all in this together. It isn't a "us or them" thing. It's all of us.Candy Minxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07350752657678863378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23226602.post-73253563403311179072009-08-08T15:33:59.991-04:002009-08-08T15:33:59.991-04:00Mike, yes I postedit at the McCarthy forum.

I once posted a whole bunch of the reactions of McCarthy going on the Oprah show here. <br /><br />You can see some of them and responses here:<br /><br />http://gnosticminx.blogspot.com/2007/04/oprah-winfrey-and-cormac-mccarthy.html<br /><br />Hey Muppie, wonderful to hear from you. I am okay with people discussing gender and having rigorous comparrisons of the ways we have social constructs...or hormonal differences or similarities. Lets face it, men and women are way more alike than different. When the trend in marathons began in the 1970's we found out that the physical differences in strength and stamina are much smaller between men and women than we used to believe. Women compete at marathon not much differently than men. And the hormonal differences are quite slight. Most gender differences are social construct, or cultural enforcements to divide labour....or control behaviour.Candy Minxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07350752657678863378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23226602.post-11795319887180315522009-08-08T15:32:45.832-04:002009-08-08T15:32:45.832-04:00isnt that kind of a genderization itself lol?isnt that kind of a genderization itself lol?piscadoro king fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00478565991158410614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23226602.post-27491114526773349422009-08-08T14:54:59.816-04:002009-08-08T14:54:59.816-04:00Wow - been there like you and once again realize w...Wow - been there like you and once again realize what fantasy some men delude themselves with. Climb over them and keep going - you seem to have a great core of realistic minds available to discuss your valuable ideas with. But it is disheartening to realize some men still genderize discussion of ideas. cheers<br />MuppieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23226602.post-52701838737871436612009-08-08T11:03:02.683-04:002009-08-08T11:03:02.683-04:00it's just people playing pwnage on the web lik...it's just people playing pwnage on the web like everywhere else. if it makes any difference i kind of think of you as a guy. did you post this at the forum? lmaopiscadoro king fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00478565991158410614noreply@blogger.com
