I also have a confession. I'm actually a twelve year old.
.__.
How does it feel to know a twelve year old is an inch taller than you?

I have to confess something also
I'm...
Not actually a fruit.
But you sent me pictures! You're a kiwi, aren't you?
They were photoshopped 
I should have known! I never find sexy fruits in my area that are down to get fruity.

Verb, it's a disorder for a reason. i'm just saying, if i had the disorder, i would be able to live with it
it would be so easy for me to get over it
Trivializing the issue doesn't really help.

I mean, through the eyes of someone with Gender Dysmorphia, gender isn't the problem; that is already down-pat. The body is the issue. i guess i just don't see why someone would care so much about it to the level where they'd want to change their body
why would it matter to anyone
i'm not saying you shouldn't want to change your body if you do--but why kill yourself over it
that's why i call it irrational
Verb, it's a disorder for a reason.

I'm starting to think gender dysphoria is the result of some physiological or psychological imbalance that causes general unhappiness with ones sex regardless of sex, since 20pc regret sexual reassignment and 40pc still go on to commit suicide.
A lot of the trans community despises the hoops one has to jump through to get access to help, but it's really necessary. It's much more likely that someone suffering from depression latched onto a sex change to make themselves happy than the other way around. People are supposed to go to a psychologist to be made sure that the depression is caused by GD, but people tend to not be patient when their happiness is on the line.

I'd like to throw out there that Gender Dysphoria is a subset of Body Dismorphic Disorder, a Somatoform/ Somatic Symptom Disorder. It's not as simple as eliminating the concept of gender; it's a problem of the brain not being able to reconcile what it perceives to be grave physical deformities. i honestly believing eliminating the concept of gender would indeed solve that problem--at least for the gender dysphoric
for those who have some other strictly bodily form of BDD, that's obviously a different story
It's really more of a misunderstanding of what "the wrong body" means. It's more to do with the mind thinking of the masculine/feminine traits of the body to be deformities. And since you can't change someone's gender, as we've seen stated a lot in this thread, you can't really tackle it from a cognitive perspective. The only real "fix" is hormonal therapy or surgery, which is basically like plastic surgery for a general case of Body Dysmorphic Disorder. I mean, through the eyes of someone with Gender Dysmorphia, gender isn't the problem; that is already down-pat. The body is the issue.

-Metroid for NX
Nintendo promised 2 Metroid games. you watch, one is gonna be for that new abomination.
I'm not entirely convinced that NX isn't just a proper account system for 3DS and Wii U.

I want to see more on the Division
-Published by Ubisoft
-Pushed back two years in development
-Published by Ubisoft
-Made by Ubisoft Massive (most famous game being Ground Conflict)
-Only thing we've seen is prerendered target-footage
It's going to be trash, Jim.
want to crush my bones as well as my dreams there Aria?
Did you forget who you're talking to?
uh
no
Then you should know that the answer is obviously yes.

As in, both twins became transgender?
Yes, and no. Cases where one developed this specific kind of body dysmorphia would signify genetic reasons; cases where both developed it and one or both had a lasting case (as in, a severe enough case to which it leads to treatment) would hint more toward environmental factors (depending on how they were raised, and how closely linked their experiences were).
i would think it would be the other way around, unless i'm not thinking
Twins are never exact duplicates, most obvious example being fingerprints. If only one twin in a common environment ended up developing Body Dysmorphic Disorder, it would mean that it was genetic. Meanwhile, if it was developed by both twins in a common environment, it'd mean that it was most likely environmental. I purposely include "in a common environment"; raised in different environment leaves too much to variables. A person in San Francisco and a person in Dublin can have different experiences that lead to the same mental disorders.

It's basically the same problem as schizophrenia research. And if I were to hazard a guess, it probably has the same general developmental origin: some percentage are genetic, while it is still predominantly an environmental disorder. Without proper research, though, this is just he-said-she-said.

Tru is taken and it isn't by Lemon.

They should can the Infinity Ward and Sledgehammer titles, make the development cycle 4-5 years, and get rid of extreme cyber stuff. They do all that and they are fine.
But muh transhumanism and the debate of if it's ethical to shed what makes us human.

Is there any evidence that you can?
Being transgender =/= being born transgender
The whole thing is slippery, as it is. It's likely that it's influenced by both nature (as in predispositions) and nurture (as in the environment you developed in, obviously), but beyond studying promising fringe cases (of what is already considered relatively fringe itself) such as cases of twins in which transgenderism is developed, we've got little to nothing.

-Metroid for 3DS metroid anything plz
also, retcon other m
i want yoshio sakamoto to personally apologize on stage for that game
I say 3DS specifically because it'll be more likely to be successful. If it's successful, they'll make more. Another is that handheld is a good place for platformers, especially 2D (assuming they go with a traditional Metroidvania instead of making it Prime-esque).

I actually forgot that E3 was so close, so uh. Here's my hail-Mary list:
-Metroid for 3DS
-Persona 5 deets
-Fallout 4 gameplay (not a CGI teaser that's a replay from the announcement)
-Crackdown gameplay
-Last Guardian reconfirmation
-NX information

mirror's edge is gonna suck bcuz anita sarkeesian had something to do with it
durrrr
No, it'll suck because it's EA and they'll do anything if they think it'll squeeze more money from the corpse. Besides, people are being retarded about that. They had one meeting thing with her where she gave her views on empowerment, it's not like they made her the story director. In all likeliness she didn't have any real input on the game and it was just a publicity stunt for both parties.

Saying "it's a social construct" isn't the discussion-ender people seem to think it is. A social construct is an idea with a set of values determined by a group of people. We could apply this to "justice", for instance, and track how the meaning and application of the concept has changed throughout the years. It doesn't mean that justice doesn't exist, just that it's not something "concrete" like physics or neurochemistry.
Gender is the same thing. It "exists", but what "it" is, however, is determined by the set group you're observing. Fifty years ago, it would have be equivalent to a person's sex. Nowadays, it tends to (since it can still vary, depending on the observed group) refer to a person's tendencies as they pertain to a set notion of what a boy or girl acts like, thinks like, dresses like, etc.

Only if it was like the ODST port, an addition to the Collection.
unplayable co-op lag?
yeah, lets do it, perfect
I meant an expansion, not a standalone game. It'd be awkward having an entire collection on a console where only a single game doesn't fit under the umbrella.
