Somebody from that thread doxxed me to a job I’d quit a couple weeks previous. It was funny because they were incompetent at it in several ways but it’s indicative of the urge to genuinely gently caress up people’s lives for disagreement, and a transphobe like SPR reacts that way to any minority being threatened, rhetorically or otherwise.

both idiots at least, just different flavors. I go back and watch Shaun's breakdowns of Stefan's stuff sometimes; I find it fascinating that he has a whole body of work dedicated to how everything from Native American genocide to the fall of Rome can be tied somehow to the exact, insane degree to which he absolutely despises women

This used to be common medical belief

Here's an article from 2004:

Women Not Born With Lifetime Supply of Eggs?
Animal Study Shows Mammals Have a Reserve of Egg-Producing Follicles
Written by Jennifer Warner

March 10, 2004 -- A surprising finding about female fertility in mice is challenging the notion that women are born with a lifetime's supply of eggs.

Researchers have long believed that female mammals, including mice and humans, were born with a fixed supply of egg-producing follicles in their ovaries. In contrast, most male mammals continuously generate new sperm cells that allow them to reproduce throughout their adult life.

But a new study published in the March 11 issue of Nature shows that female mice continue to produce eggs to replace damaged ones after birth.

Researchers say the discovery indicates that females may share the ability to replenish reproductive cells during life, and if the same process occurs in humans it may also help explain why female fertility declines rapidly after age 30.

I mean there are a finite amount of them iirc but you don't run out, you stop dispensing them before that, except in cases when the egg haver feels threatened in which case they can discharge upwards of ten thousand eggs in a single burst to scatter incoming radar beams.

I get nervous about that offsite poo poo too, mostly because, while the person posting it doesn't matter, their idea is to introduce reasons to hate people to other freaks and weirdos

I remember a few years back there was some DnD dude fishing around via PMs for lists of the "worst posters on the site" which was just an awful vibe. Like yeah maybe nothing comes of it directly but there's a lot of ice-chewing sadists out there looking for an excuse and a target

The idea that women are born with all the eggs they will ever have is actually a reasonably defensible position. This was mainline scientific belief for many years and, tbh, it still sort of is. You can find it referenced in lots of places that would be considered credible sources, like the Cleveland Clinic or the University of Michigan's Rogel Cancer Center.

It wasn't until like 2012 when a team of researchers found evidence that it might not be true, and IIRC that research has never been confirmed and it wasn't about humans to begin.

I don't intend this to be a defense of Molyneux at all, he's still a creepy loving weirdo for walking around thinking about this poo poo. I just wanted to point out that "women are born with all the eggs they will ever have" isn't a crackpot idea.

Another possibility is that the ovaries normally do some kind of natural culling process of the follicles along the way. As a person gets older, the natural effects of aging and environmental effects will impact the pool of viable candidates. So as a person gets older, fertility drops but it isn't like a gumball machine that ran out of candy per se.

And while sperm are constantly produced aging absolutely affects them as well; some 80 year old dude isn't going to be packing the hot rods he might have had in his twenties.
