But you are, you're putting emphasis on your ratings :sun:

I wasnt the one who took down your rating and havent heard a motivation for it being done but what I see wrong with your rating is that your categorizing of blindsophist as a male could be construed as part of the transphobic hate campaign that blindsophist is at the receiving end of.

Regardless of your motivation, if the moderator intended that as the reason for removing the rating I'd consider it appropriate.

You didnt get tarred and feathered, its just a rating removal.

Personally, in my interpretation, if you removed the gender reference:

Quote:

Subject: One of the most immature shroomerites around
Body: be careful treading waters in a "Blind" sophist thread. Any opinion that doesn't conform to theirs will result in him running straight to your ratings to give you a 0/5 with "shut up" as the reason. This person is immature and is truly blind to any other thoughts. The username was properly picked , well done.

its a very unkind but in my opinion legal rating.

then the argument turns into why should we/people change pronouns for others? especially when they are starting the confrontation and being disrespectful by adding pointless ratings?

if someone can refer to someone as  dipshit in a rating they can refer to them as a guy or girl.. go thru the ratings. it's everywhere..


I only trade rate because I care about the shroom. the regular ratings are for people who lose arguments or have a personal connection in PM or through a thread.. not hatred from a voiced opinion.

I just think that some mod is using extreme favoritism to others and that is not fair. especially when someone who is a veteran, not violating rules, and contributing.

Not just through the PUB... We venture outside here.. 

and Asante im still waiting on that Technological singularity

This is simply not true. The definition of transgender is as follows.
Quote:

denoting or relating to a person whose self-identity does not conform unambiguously to conventional notions of male or female gender.




Referring to Blindsophist as either male or female is wrong. Unfortunately there is no word to substitute him/her, thus a person has to either incorrectly pick one, or use the (more offensive in my opinion) word, 'it'.

Yeah, it's bogus that a rating with that body was deleted.  A thread addressing this in the mod issue subforum would be well advised.

However for future reference it's more appropriate to address people by their gender, not their sex.  Even if you disagree with this, a level ov respect extended to someone you're criticizing tends to warrant greater credence toward its constitution.  And it's could'nt( or couldn't in typical apostrophe placement) care less.  Unless you actually meant that you could care less about ratings, which seems to be the case since you made a thread about it.  Oh well, carry on.

The first rating I left shroompot was "one cool dude" or some such. I should be drawn and quartered.

Hir, although this is more proper when speaking ov men and women as a whole.  I could also see it as being acceptable to some genderqueer individuals.  However, most transgender people prefer to be addressed solely as their gender assumed after transitioning.

I really don't care for BS either. She has a very limited worldview and doesn't seem to exercise critical thinking on a variety of topics including misgendering and things like that.

Personally I like BS, even if I find myself disagreeing with her fairly often. It's taken me a while to get used to the pronoun thing though.

I just don't like how she's always playing a victim, I can't stand it.
