    Serious answer: Anyone who identifies as one.

    I literally can’t pin it down more than that as there are exceptions to every rule. Same goes for a man.

    I want to say y’all are paranoid. But.

    My wife came home one night, hammered. OK. Fuck me, she drove home?! Not proud to say, but we drank and drove a lot in those days, got a hotel or cab if we were smashed.

    Next day she doesn’t remember a thing but having a second drink at the bar with the girls. Nothing else. C’mon! Could hardly believe it, chewed her out for driving drunk, she insisted she only had 2 or 3 drinks. Bullshit. Takes more than a couple of drinks for us to black out. Hell, we never got that drunk.

    She got to talking to her friends that were regulars at that bar. Regulars who had the same bar tender. Same exact experiences. You add it up.

    She wouldn’t report it. Because what are you going to report exactly?

    Having said all this, that’s my only story on the subject. And I’ve done a lot of sketchy shit, ran with sketchy people. Date rape drugs are not as common as you might think. But they are indeed a thing.

      Oh, it’s surprisingly common. There are even occasional bursts of people cutting out the middle-person and going for directly injecting people on the dance floor

      It’s scary out there

      (and don’t drive drunk kids; you’re risking innocent lives because you’re too cheap to get a cab. Not a good look)

      Only? You shouldn’t drive if you have had any drinks.

      “Date drugs” are super common and easy to buy. Psychopaths that actually use them on unconsenting people, fortunately not very common. But common enough thst I would never leave my drink unattended.

      In logic, finding a case where a statement isn’t true is a very common and correct way to disprove that statement. So the proposition that “a woman has xx chromosomes and is born with a vagina”, would actually be logically disproved by the counter-examples you bring up.

      I mean, thats a very naive opinion formed on outdated knowledge of the human biology. I’d be happy to share resources with you if you actually want to learn.

        Nobody can logically prove me wrong

        This absolute burden on society’s mean intelligence level openly stated they were engaging in bad faith. I have no idea what you hope to achieve by offering to inform them when the report button is right there.

      Thanks, I do try my hardest to act the insufferable cunt on here, so seeing people act like my reply was somehow clever and original (it wasn’t, I’ve just seen it used before) was a bit of a surprise.
