True story, that's how it worked in the Robert Taylor homes. The gang leaders, building managers, and police had an uneasy truce.
If someone did some stupid shit that was out of line, the gang leaders would make sure to quietly rat out the perpetrator via the building crew.
I'm pretty sure that the recent rise in random street violence is directly related to the breakup/gentrification of the project homes. It's no different from the mafia or yakuza - once the central power is broken up, there are lots of low level thugs scrambling for money/power and nobody to keep them in line.
Her dad was Robert Maxwell, one of Israels biggest Secret Agents ever.
​
Her daughter works for the same people. This is why she hasnt been touched. This is why she hasnt been apprehended. This is why Epstein was left alone for as long as he was. Israeli Secret Service can operate in the US with impunity
Norah Vincent interview for anyone who's curious. Skip to 9:25 if it doesn't do so automatically. The interview was about her experiences while writing "Self Made Man".
“Into Thin Air” by John Krakauer is an incredibly detailed ascent on Mt. Everest; and also a first hand look at how things can go horribly wrong. It’s a gripping read.

You're close but the facts are off a bit. For a quick read, here's his Wiki page David Reimer. For an in depth read, there's a book about him "As Nature Made Him". It not only tells his story, but delves into the "nature vs nurture" bit.
John Money was a piss poor scientist, he swept his findings so far under the rug that he literally ignored the fact that the application of his theories literally caused suicides (such as the one detailed in the non-fiction novel "As Nature Made Him" so we don't generally take him seriously anymore...
> I understand a frustration with rigid, societal gender roles.
OK, but please understand that that's not what gender identity is about.
Suppose we tell you, "We're going to transform your body to female, and that's how everybody is going to see and relate to you for the rest of your life. But don't worry! We're not saying you have to be feminine! You can be as masculine as a woman as you like! But you have to be a woman."
I don't think you'd be cool with that. Possibly a few people have a lot of built-in gender flexibility and could roll with that punch. A lot more people think they could handle it, but in reality probably could not - Nora Vincent thought she could, for example, and almost lost her mind, even though her change was only outward/social and not bodily.
Hummm...não tenho ideia, mas vou chutar do meio do campo.
Tem o caso de uma mulher lésbica que se disfarçou como homem e viveu 18 meses assim. Ela tem uns insights bem interessantes e inclusive teve uns dates com mulheres. Para ela, em termos de relacionamentos e sedução, o papel do homem é MUITO mais difícil que o da mulher. O homem precisa se provar e há todo um tipo de pressão para seduzir, enquanto que para a mulher o papel é muito mais simples.
Eu concordo em boa parte com isso. Atravessar uma sala e abordar uma mulher que você acha extremamente sexy e que tem um sorriso bonito e tal é extremamente difícil e aprender isso é um caminho longo e repleto de frustração. Por isso, por exemplo, que você vê muito nerd masculino virjão, e muito menos mulher na mesma situação, e por isso que pipocam tópicos do tipo "como chegar na crush" partindo de homens, e não de mulheres.
Ter sexo com frequência é muito mais fácil pra mulher, no final das contas, e acredito que um cara que é bi mas que é socialmente morto pode acabar "migrando" pro outro lado, talvez por ser mais fácil e se sentir mais realizado sendo desejado, seja da forma que for.
Como eu falei no início, é um chute do meio do campo e nada impede que eu tenha isolado a bola do estádio.
Fuff and fuffery.
The fact that Epstein's procurer, Ghislaine Maxwell, was the daughter of a man called, Israel's SuperSpy in the title of a book published 2 decades ago, or that the source of most of Epstein's billions was a co-founder of a 30 year old group dedicated to advancing the cause of Israel remains.
Quibbling, however validly, about one non-crucial connection out of many relevant connection is pure pettifoggery. The bulk still proves nothing in isolation, but provide a plausible explanation as to why Epstein
- had sole access to another man's billions
- a reason as to why they would have been engaged in a vast enterprise of blackmail with that man's money
- chose the accomplices he consorted with.
regarding the non-penis portion of your post. there was a book by norah vincent called Self-Made Man: One Woman's Year Disguised as a Man. i haven't read the book, just norahs explanation of it. basically, she spent a year dressing and acting like a man. but, she had to quit because she became suicidal as a result of it. so, this isn't a thing for cis women. some may say they want to do it, but they really don't because they don't do it. and if they were to try it, they would wind up like norah.
the difference here is that you are expressing your desire that you are or might be a man for many reasons, and part of it is not feeling female. that's very different than saying you want to be a man for male privilege. i guess the point i am trying to say is, is that your feelings aren't equally comparable to cis women. try asking that question and ignoring the privilege part. would you arrive at the same conclusion?
These are the flight logs subpoenaed from one of Epstein's pilots. On that flight log was a trip to this location (Zorro) on a plane with a tail number (N474AW) that has deep ties to both the state department and a CIA contractor that had a history of child trafficking. The US government knew about Epstein.
If you want to go further down the Epstein rabbit hole, you can look into how Epstein and Robert Maxwell know each other.
Actually, his book points out that the donors did give a lot to the hospital and had a much shorter than average wait. Great book: https://www.amazon.com/Tokyo-Vice-American-Reporter-Police/dp/0307475298
I’m an organ donor and believe in it, but the system has been manipulated at times.

>>>>Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: A Savage Journey to the Heart of the American Dream is a 1971 novel by Hunter S. Thompson, illustrated by Ralph Steadman. The book is a roman à clef, rooted in autobiographical incidents. The story follows its protagonist, Raoul Duke, and his attorney, Dr. Gonzo, as they descend on Las Vegas to chase the American Dream through a drug-induced haze, all the while ruminating on the failure of the 1960s countercultural movement. The work is Thompson's most famous book, and is noted for its lurid descriptions of illegal drug use and its early retrospective on the culture of the 1960s. Its popularization of Thompson's highly subjective blend of fact and fiction has become known as gonzo journalism.
Robert was bankrolled by Mossad if you read the book about his espionage activities,
he was demanding money from Israel when his businesses faced bankruptcy
https://www.amazon.com/Robert-Maxwell-Israels-Superspy-Gordon/dp/0786712953
former handler of Robert - Ben Menashe has said that one day the old Robert came to them with his daughter Ghislaine and her boyfriend at the time - Jeffrey who wanted to work for Israel as well - it was in the 1980-s-1990-s
Check out: Gang Leader for a Day: https://www.amazon.com/Gang-Leader-Day-Sociologist-Streets/dp/014311493X -- the dealers don't make much money at all. They are kickin' the money to people up the food chain.
Here's the Amazon link. It is illuminating reading. I'm not saying I agree with everything she had to say, but I will say that as a man, it was stunningly refreshing to see someone else acknowledging that male life has entire classes of difficulties that aren't even on most women's radar.
Well thats what happens when your Dad was Israels top Mossad agents.
​
Also her sisters are maybe the two most powerful women in cyber-security
​
Where is her mugshot btw? How come we have mugshots of every random crackhead that gets arrested, but none of her? Where is literally ANY FOOTAGE of her in jail? A picture?
​
She isnt in jail most likely. Epstien didnt commit suicide (he most likely has a new face and a new identity on some UAE Island). Were being played.
Everyone has issues in their lives on multiple fronts. Trans men have issues around being biologically female, being trans, AND being men. Since they experience discrimination because they are men, they need to be included in men's rights. Not only that, but since they have lived experiences as both female and male they can be powerful allies in the quest for gender equality. Norah Vincent's book about going undercover as a man for 18 months is a great read. I've read similar much shorter stories from trans men that give a unique perspective on male/female experience that most people never get.

> Which opportunities does she have specifically because she is a woman
- Waitress- it is much easier to get a waiting job as a female than a male. There are many restaurants that only hire women for this position.
- Clerical work- most front desks in offices want a non-threatening looking woman.
- Women's clothing and beauty stores- the majority of clothing and beauty retail space is for female clothing. They make it very clear that only women need apply for those positions.
- Stripping
- Marrying a man and living off of him.
- Patreon, Twitch, OnlyFans, Youtube other websites.
OP really does have a lot of opportunities as a 23 year old woman, even if she's only a 5/10, she has opportunities. She really just has to omit her law degree from her applications, and I'm pretty sure she'll get something.
> I would swap my life as a woman anytime against that of a man. I would not have been raped, I would not have people shoving me their biases in the face everywhere I go online,
The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. If you really want to know what life is like as a man from a woman's perspective, then read this book. "Self-Made Man: One Woman's Year Disguised as a Man." She finds out pretty quickly that being a man sucks.
https://www.amazon.com/Self-Made-Man-Womans-Year-Disguised/dp/0143038702/
Link to her book on Amazon book page?
Book name?
EDIT: I guess this is her book (came out today):
When I am around men? Almost never. When there are no men [1] around? Plenty of times.
> what is the best way for me to respond to his tears? how can i best comfort and support him without making him feel emasculated or weak?
Hold him when he cries. Don't say anything [2].
What can cause me to cry? There are movies and passages in books (an example of a book that can reduce me to tears is "Self Made Man").
I don't know about your guy [3], but as I was growing up, crying was a total failure of masculinity. Even my girlfriends would beat the shit out of me.
Notes:
1 - Other than myself, and I don't always consider myself one despite chromosomes, hormones and genitals.
2 - Other than something like "I love you" or "it is OK, I love you."
3 - I am probably your dad's age, if not older than your dad. Fuck you, my beard is grayer than his.
People will treat you how you expect to be treated. The first thing to do is to make the decision that NO MATTER WHAT you will treat yourself well and expect others to treat you well because as a human being you have inherent worth
Get a copy of the book 'why men marry some women and not others' by Molloy, it's GENIUS. As guy I can say his research is 100% solid, spot on, take it to the bank.
So what if you can't rely on looks as much as other girls, that's not disqualifying by any means. Do what you can with what you have - waist to hip ratio of .7, a bit of makeup, long hairstyle, clothes. MAkeover book. Any girlfriends who are true friends? If none, find some by BEING a friend and do for them what you wish one would do for you - coach you through the makeover process to do what you can with what you have.
yoga is fabulous for improving body confidence; if you can move well and inhabit your body it does something makeup can't.
read this book to understand men:
https://www.amazon.com/Self-Made-Man-Womans-Year-Disguised/dp/0143038702
then... Go where the guys are - learn a hobby that's male dominated and get active in it. Just do it to socialize without expectations. There are shy lonely guys everywhere but you have to know where to look. once you're there, just be pleasant and interesting and interested. Guys are gunshy about marriage because they see how entitled and manipulative women can be and the deck is stacked against men in some ways. MGTOWs exist for some strong reasons. Be different from the women who have influenced that trend.
80% of long term compatibility is personality, capitalize on your personality strengths. Get the book Fascinating Womanhood if you want to know how to stay married.
Some sociologists hate it, but I think Gang Leader for a Day is an entertaining read that gives a nice introduction to sociology and being a being a sociologist, especially the research and fieldwork aspects. And audiobook is available if that's your preference.

Familiar with Norah Vincent's "Self Made Man?"
It's exactly that.
She's a lesbian and was a feminist who thought men have it great and that rednecks are awful, insular bigots. So she dressed as a man (quite convincingly, she's a tall, broad-shouldered woman and really put the effort into it, taking vocal lessons to speak in a masculine manner, using finely-shaved wool applied by a makeup artist to give herself stubble, and getting custom-tailored clothing to hide her already modest feminine features) and joined a bowling club in a small town for a year. She set up and went on first dates with something like 30 women in the same time frame, too.
Turned out that dating as a man sucked, the rednecks that she held in such low regard welcomed her in and mentored her, even though they thought she was a gay guy the whole time, and that pretty much all of her stock-photo opinions were exactly opposite reality.
It's frustrating, because it's hard to explain to somebody who hasn't experienced it.
I mean, if somebody transitioned her to male against her will, I doubt she'd say "well, this doesn't bother me, I'll just be a feminine male". Yet she might imagine she could do that.
There was a book by a butch lesbian who attempted it as an experiment, and needed therapy afterward: Self-Made Man.
Her dad Robert Maxwell was a major Mossad guy. This isn't considered fringe, even mainstream people acknowledge it (I think it's even mentioned in his wiki).
And there's all sorts of books like this: https://www.amazon.com/Robert-Maxwell-Israels-Superspy-Gordon/dp/0786712953
