Bigots referring to "Normal" women implies the existence of Fire/Psychic/Dark/Null, etc type women.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 29 points 3 months ago

I like my women like I like my pokemon dragon/dark.

Side note, what is a PC word for "straight" that isn't overly academic for a child?

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 11 points 3 months ago

Straight. Or non-gay, cis, heterosexual? It's only clinical if you treat it that way...

Nuclear Woman

She-Hulk

I take great pride in knowing my great grandmother was one.

Part of the easter uprising against the British in Ireland.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumann_na_mBan

Do not underestimate the ferocity of a woman in times of war. (Or ever)

On the day of the Rising, Cumann na mBan members, including Winifred Carney, who arrived armed with both a Webley revolver and a typewriter, entered the General Post Office on O'Connell Street in Dublin with their male counterparts. By nightfall, women insurgents were established in all the major rebel strongholds throughout the city except Boland's Mill and the South Dublin Union held by Éamon de Valera and Eamonn Ceannt.

I wonder what nuclear women decay into, also does their gender radiation change the gender of people around them?

[–] leisesprecher@feddit.org 17 points 3 months ago

No, but it causes alpha particles to be emitted.

[–] Artyom@lemm.ee 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Even after they decay a few times, they're still nuclear women. They can also emit alpha women, which are fairly small but still nuclear women, betas, which are not fully women, and gammas, which are also not women, but eventually interact with other nuclear women.

Gender theory is much more complex than I thought

Can confirm, my partner is a psychological woman.

...by which I mean that she has a master's degree in psychology, not that she's combative 😄

[–] MajorMajormajormajor@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

A useful skill to learn in case you need assistance.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Thanks, but she's really the most empathetic, perceptive, and supportive person I've ever met and she's not here to coerce me into saying so 😄🥰

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 24 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That's a wild line of extrapolation.

[–] lseif@sopuli.xyz 50 points 3 months ago (1 children)

wild lines of extrapolation imply a domesticated line of extrapolation

[–] Tlaloc_Temporal@lemmy.ca 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

And wild curves of extrapolation, and wild planes of extrapolation, and wild queues of extrapolation, and...

[–] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Wild planes of extrapolation imply wild rotorcraft of extrapolation

[–] kureta@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

All those "x extrapolations" imply their dual "x interpolations".

Women of mass destruction.

[–] VaalaVasaVarde@sopuli.xyz 5 points 3 months ago

Better give them up now before someone invades.

[–] FoolishObserver@lemmy.world 14 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Lights out! Guerrilla Women! Turn that shit up!!

[–] pH3ra@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 months ago

Thanks, now I have to listen to it

[–] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 14 points 3 months ago

Right, as we all know, nuclear women are a staple of the nuclear family

[–] RandomStickman@fedia.io 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Then call me M1A1 Abrams because I'm protected against all CBRN, conventional, and guerrilla threats

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago (2 children)

But vulnerable to psychological attacks?

[–] socsa@piefed.social 5 points 3 months ago

Keep summer safe

[–] RandomStickman@fedia.io 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Not many people know that the most effective strategies against the Abrams are pointed sarcasm and social exclusion.

[–] RandomStickman@fedia.io 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Hopefully they install some countermeasures in future upgrades

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Yeah, the M1A2 will come without the sarcasm detector and have an all access pass to local parties. No word yet about anti-bullying tech, though.

[–] Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I met a guerilla woman once. I...I don't want to talk about it.

[–] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[–] Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I said I don't want to talk about it!

Inorganic women. Hell yeah.

[–] Limonene@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Electronic women, giant mech women, women reenactments...

Space women?

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Cyber women (obviously), economic women, class women,

[–] Dasnap@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

There are plenty of gorilla women on Fur Affinity.

[–] JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee 8 points 3 months ago

Is that the same for biological parents?

[–] vordalack@lemm.ee 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Would this also imply the existence of a nuclear or tactical Karen?

Drone women? That makes my head hurt

Or tricycle gear women.
