"Hormones Day 156": A commenter on /r/slatestarcodex the other month seemed to
interpret the "Editor's note: yes" remark in a gender-identitarian sense of me
realizing that I'm not actually trans; it's worth expanding on what I actually
meant.

Turing Test: As I discovered with "Found in University Library Copy of ...", it
looks like we can include italics in Pelican post titles after all!

"What's My Motivation?": the reason I'm not nonbinary is more ideological than
symptom-driven. If d were really 6 for voice, I would expect not being able to
sex someone's voice to essentially never happen. It's rare, of course, but it
doesn't seem like it's in "never happens" territory. (Remember the "Fast Car"
song?)

"Categories" flailing notes action

Today I thought that it might make sense to return to the blegg/rube parable to
introduce the "It's profitable to make a new category for things that are
_cheaply identifiable_ as coming from a different distribution" point before
switching context to the two types—but maybe that's too repetitive and boring,
and I should just skip to what I actually want to say about trans women (the
part that I'm continually failing to be brave enough to write)?

On the other hand ... I probably _should_ stick to the rule of establishing
philosophical points with neutral-valence examples before getting into the
mind-killing applications: if you try to do both at once, people who can't
handle the political implications won't learn the philosophy, either. If you
successfully teach the philosophy first, they will learn something before
latching on to some other rationalization to deny the political implications.
