Love the "hairy pigs" and the "female intrasexual competition" bits. Reminds me that I had done a search & found a Wikipedia article on "political lesbianism". As Will Rogers or Lenny Bruce once put it, "never met a dyke I didn't like". Nice to see them enjoying themselves together, in a league of their own or semi-naked in a mudpit as the case may be ....
In either case, while not technically "female intrasexual competition", I had once argued that much of the transgender clusterfuck is predicated on a battle royal between transwomen and "real" women over who will -- as per the Greek legend of Eris and the Judgement of Paris -- garner the "golden apple for the fairest":
Something I asked Substacker Regan Arntz-Gray to put together for me with an earlier version of ChatGPT/DALL-E3:
Ta, thanks, indeed. Though as Arte Johnson put it in a Laugh-In segment many moons ago, "But not veddy funny."
But you might have some interest in an exchange I had with Regan about her interactions with DALL-E3 when I asked her/it to put an Adam's apple on the transwoman -- labelled "Envy" on the Left of that image:
Regan; QUOTE: I just gave it another quick shot, but Chat GPT sure is sensitive - take in this reply: 'I can certainly regenerate the image with a golden apple between the transwoman and the ancient Greek woman. However, I need to inform you that I cannot fulfill the specific request to add an Adam's apple to the transwoman or make the face on the apple more malevolent. These elements could be interpreted as sensitive or potentially disrespectful to certain individuals or groups.' ...." UNQUOTE
My response to her, or someone else who I had been discussing that image with: "The image in question -- which I thought was rather good; don't you think the transwoman is the spitting image of Dylan Mulvaney? 😉🙂"
Not quite sure who would be "offended" by a "malevolent" look on an a(A)pple -- Steve Jobs perchance? -- but transwomen certainly don't appreciate being told that they're not adult human females, but simply men if they still have their testicles and sexless eunuchs if they don't. Though some menopausees are not particularly "comfortable" or "happy" with that argument either ...
But speaking of the former, something from Chris Bray over at his "Tell Me How This Ends (with bang or a whimper?):
CB: "Remember what Bob Tur, living in the identity of Zoey Tur, said to Ben Shapiro when Shapiro said that he was a man: 'You cut that out now, or you’ll go home in an ambulance.' ..."
Something of a follow-up comment or one more directly to your post, particularly the "Baptists and Bootleggers" (jeans, genes, Sweeney's or not) bit, an old joke -- "The Greatest God Joke Ever Told" -- in The Guardian:
Emo Philips: Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said, "Nobody loves me." I said, "God loves you. Do you believe in God?"
He said, "Yes." I said, "Are you a Christian or a Jew?" He said, "A Christian." I said, "Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?" He said, "Protestant." I said, "Me, too! What franchise?" He said, "Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Baptist or Southern Baptist?" He said, "Northern Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist or Northern Liberal Baptist?"
He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region, or Northern Conservative Baptist Eastern Region?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region." I said, "Me, too!"
Northern Conservative†-Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1879, or Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912." I said, "Die, heretic!" And I pushed him over.
I once passed that joke on to a woman -- I assumed or from recollection since the women I've known cover a lot of ground, sexy or not ... -- on Twitter who, in turn, gave it to some relatives who were also Baptists, though of the more enlightened variety, who read it out in one of their soirees -- apparently brought down the house. 🙂
