The same thing happens in the other direction. Here's a really easy example for you: an individual is genetically male, yet developed as being physically female but has neurology of a male. Why you ask? This person was born being with an extreme testosterone resistance, so during development he didn't develop the way he was supposed to.

And I was a club kid back in the 90s in NYC where trans would just seeminly pop up out of nowhere at 3 am if you would have told me that in 2023 little kids will be doing this and society would not be able to answer what a male or female was I would had said you were insane.

In America you can plead the 5th

[@theodorewhite4821]

In America judges are supposed to act truthfully and lawfully. Answering a basic simple question honestly isn’t hard and is 100% expected.

[@bezel95]

@@jimmymags6516This isn’t a criminal hearing, only in criminal trials can someone have the right to not self-incriminate and not have it held against them. In other hearings officials can take a negative inference from pleading the fifth to a question. By her refusing to answer the question, they can infer that she does in fact believe in what she wrote. Educate yourself.

[@jimmymags6516]

@@bezel95 " What has she done to people in court who refused to comply??" I was answering this question . She can not punish people in an American court if they plead the 5th .

[@davidc.2878]

She is only doing what every judge has done since Robert Bork to protect themselves and ensure their confirmation. I agree it is disgusting--this unwillingness to own one's own words under the excuse that the issue may later come before the court they have been nominated for; but the fact is, that judges on both sides have done it since the 1980s and some of the most egregious examples of it are Samuel Alito, Amy Coney Barrett, and John Roberts. Amy Coney Barrett trying to pretend like she wouldn't vote to kill Roe v. Wade at the first opportunity was the most grotesque example of hypocrisy I've ever seen in a nomination process. Of course I agree that Lee's positions on allowing sentenced men to claim transgender identities to get placed in women's prisons is moronic. Her beliefs are the essence of academic stupidity, but her evasion of them here is par for the course.

Satan and his workers don't care what you say the only one that can defeat these evil people in their agenda is Jesus Christ and the word of God. Satan knows many of you are spiritually ignorant and many of you do not even know God or gods word as a result he's going to do whatever the hell he desires because you have no authority over him and his plans. The only one that can destroy the works of darkness is the light of God we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against wickedness in high places. The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God for casting down strongholds

She has vacted our trial date, she has denied reasonable accommodations and now refusal toi set hearing dates for filed motions. She has done heavy lifting for defendants not requiring them to file motions; then constantnly ruling against us. She even wanted my severely disabled sister to wait in the hall during hearing without coming in. A cruel, a wicked judge. We are trying for a motion for change of venue.
