"We were counting on you to break down the transgender wall but this silly amnesia story, man up and tell the truth."

Man up. There's a phrase.

Either way, "woman up!" just doesn't quite cut it does it?; 8/7/13, 11:40 AM

Richard Dolan said...: Odder and odder. The article says that the 'man up' comment was posted by a 'transgender commenter.' So, before getting all crazed about it, you'd need to know which way that 'trans' went. Any bets on whether the 'man up' commenter was a Bob-to-Bobbie, or the other way around?; 8/7/13, 12:16 PM

David said...: Oh, brother.

This man isn't up.

He's down.

With something.

Help him up. Or push him even downer.

Why do we have to have just two genders?

That's because the network HR director called him/her in and told him that once his surgery was considered a medical success, thus legally making him a her, it's salary would be cut 30%.; 8/7/13, 2:59 PM
