Like Ben Shapiro's unceasing discussions of transgender people, the point is titillation, masked by some sort of ostensible concern. How conscious or unconscious that is surely varies.

I was going to answer "Ben Shapiro and every other right wing teenage boy" to Les' question, but really don't like even mentioning that incel. But somehow we all thing of him whenever someone calls out the jeopardy category "Stupid Conversations about Sex".

Ben Shapiro’s voice is creepy. Too high to be a man, but too masculine to be a woman.

He sounds like 16 year old who just aged out of the boys’ chorus and lost all meaning in his life now that he can’t hit the soprano range.

Re: like the original one

I am so happy.

We are planning the first racist-free Thanksgiving since the rise of Trump.

Happy holidays, everyone!

I’m seeing NO relatives for Thanksgiving this year. No racists, no people who want to talk about racists, no Rs, no Ds, no progressives, no conservatives, no Trump discussion... no fucking opinions at all.

What do I win?

Yeah, I'm advocating this approach for Christmas - just us and the kids. But I'm not going to win. I'm sure we'll have to deal with trumpers for Christmas.
