Definitely lots of good in people being snowflakes and actually connecting to their feelings. Not loving the entitlement stuff though, when it comes to shoelaces.Flipper wrote:The epiphany was, why am I causing problems for the team just so I can be right? Why is that player walking away upset because he wants to wear a fluorescent shoestring or wants to get a tattoo on his nipple? Kids today want to believe you’re there for them, that’s what their love and respect is about.”
This is true ...like....10000% maybe...true. I was brought up in that Catholic/Midwestern "F your feelings, get in line" mindset. That isn't the mindset any more. There's some good and bad in that...but that's where we are. As fans and alums...I think we want to see our coaches handle their players like things haven't changed...we get that emotional satisfaction from feeling right...but that isn't going to work today.
The head coach of the team that plays BG next year at the Stroh Center.gmartin wrote:Can you name the only other coach besides Jim Boeheim to have coached over 1000 basketball games for a single school. 200 more games than John Wooden. He also has BG ties. BG missed out on him. Yup, if you said...... You are right.

The science is more complex than that.Flipper wrote:For example...let's look at gender. I don't care if you "feel" like a woman...if you were born a dude, you're a dude. You want to dress like a woman and call yourself a woman..that's fine. Don't expect your feelings to trump the basic undeniable scientific reality that says you're a dude because I'm certainly not going to. The best you'll get from me is that you're the New MILF..a man identifying and living female.

You couldnt be more wrong about this. I suggest you sit down for a beer with a transgender person and try to listen to them.Flipper wrote:I'm definitely in favor of being connected emotionally and being allowed to express that...I think the problem in general is that feelings sometimes are used to argue against reality...and reality always swings the biggest hammer.

You have no idea what you are talking about. Talk to some actual mental health professionals, of which I am one. This is nonsense. At one point in our not to distant past being homosexual was seen as a disorder. We have evolved.Flipper wrote:Globetrotter wrote:You couldnt be more wrong about this.

Been there...done that...it's a psychological orientation rather than a physiological disposition. I hesitate to use the term psychological disorder as opposed to orientation because I know of at least a couple of kids who are happy with the role they've assumed.
I will say that in the case of parents like the wrestler in TX who underwent hormone treatments and some level of surgery (breast removal) to live as a boy ...those people have a mental disorder. Pumping a teenage girl full of testosterone..or a teenage boy for that matter..is insane. The effects of anabolic steroid use on women are permanent and they ain't pretty. If Mack the wrestler decides that "he" was wrong about being a boy...he sure did when he saw a chance to cheat by competing against girls not on anabolics...and wants to go back to being a girl. Good luck with that..the thickened vocl chords and sandpaper skin will be the least of her issues.
So when we having that beer Globe, I'll even buy.Globetrotter wrote:You couldnt be more wrong about this.
