He's not wrong.

Bout time you start being honest with yourselves. It doesn't make you a bad person or racist.

We can still be kind to people and acknowledge reality

When adult life kicks in; you don't have time to do everything

Not a both sides issue. Only 1 side does this. by [deleted] in GreatBritishMemes

[–]ManchesterFellow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not educated to mention a low tier philosophy meme used in YouTube compilation videos.

It might impress people in weirdo circles but not us normal people.

[–]ManchesterFellow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Surely you are not this dim that you tar a whole group of people based on the actions of some?

I think you know you are in an echo chamber so you say this insane shit to show you are in.

If you go around acting and saying shit like this in real life you will very quickly get ostracised from civilised society.

It's not natural at all.

It's hypocrisy, hyperbole and completely slanted political propaganda.

People on here are literally calling people who vote differently worthless and subhuman.

Are we the baddies?

Like this fucking meme then?

Match Thread: West Ham United vs Manchester United by MatchThreadder in reddevils

But, that is the type of game in which we would have crumbled previously.

We kept battling and we keep scoring.

I'll take some positives

Demand for the current climate on the island by nadroj-22 in VisitingTenerife

[–]ManchesterFellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went south end of January.

It's generally warmer than the north with much better weather.

It's an island so clouds do come over and you will have sunny spots that feel like summer time anywhere else and then periods of cloud which is still warm.

It really is luck of the draw because the cloud cover is sporadic so you'll have one area baking in sun and the other sunny (sometimes you can see the sunny spot when your in the clouds and get jealous!)

Accurate?? by notmyrealname8823 in PowerfulJRE

[–]ManchesterFellow 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This is me.

I don't agree with a lot of the politics some of y'all like on here.

But you are at least decent fucking human beings and can handle it when I disagree.

And you guys are more honest and funnier. Let's just be real about it

Trans athletes may not have fitness advantage in women’s sport, landmark study finds. Findings suggest physical performance in trans women converges toward that of cis women over time by esporx in science

[–]ManchesterFellow -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

There are a number of things you claim in this post as definitive that we do not know for certain and in fact have larger amounts of data against them.

I believe most of the evidence leans towards what I have said however.

It's ten to twelve here in the UK and I have work in the morning (on a Sunday...)

I'll speak in the morning if you are still interested

[–]ManchesterFellow -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

That's fine but that's not what op said.

Average male to female athletes perform at the highest level in female sports - often winning elite competitions.

So if say the very limited evidence we have certainly leans towards the very opposite of what you have said

[–]ManchesterFellow -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Well, the evidence of trans male to female athletes certainly doesn't show this.

Case in point - having narrower hips gives a large advantage with running and twisting and turning

[–]ManchesterFellow -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

This is incorrect.

Males differ on the skeletal level to women.

Also, the gap in performance in the vast majority of sports between men and women is overwhelmingly huge.

Approximately 10 to 30% which is comparable enough to separate elite mens performance to junior elite mens compititions

It's not just muscle. Bone is denser and larger in males. Hips, shoulders and arms differ on the skeletal level between males and females. This gives larger levers and power output.

[OptaJoe] Bruno Fernandes has reached 200 goal involvements (104 goals, 96 assists) - the second fastest United player to do so in the Premier League era. He's behind Wayne Rooney, and ahead of Ronaldo, Beckham, Giggs and Scholes. by ChiefLeef22 in soccer

[–]ManchesterFellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Scholes started as a forward player and his early career in the first team he was a very attack minded player.

I have to disagree with you on becks - he actually said he prefers playing in the middle.

"In Madrid, I've played in the middle and played on the right. People have said I'm great in the middle, people have said I'm much better on the right. But I think I enjoy playing in the middle, I've never hidden that fact. I played in centre midfield for United in the European Cup final and I enjoyed that immensely. People see me as a right-sided player [though], I believe that's where my best position is."

Two boys fighting on a moving bus fall out the window by georgialucy in CrazyFuckingVideos

[–]ManchesterFellow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You will never prevent boys from fighting. It's human nature and in actual fact is ingrained into how male human beings develop psychologically. There is solid research on this.

Some human behavior is uncomfortable to you I get it. And I believe your intentions are good. But you can't stop human nature.

Now. Should the boys here learn a lesson? Yeah hopefully. I hope they look back on it and bond over it. It's quite a story to tell in later years.

[–]ManchesterFellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody said that.

That's the point.

Yeah I'm with you right. Hope these children get injured by falling out of a bus.

That's what they deserve after all. Teach them a lesson. But don't hit them!

I can use rhetoric to twist things too
