Huh TIL

Botanical sexism is one of those tantalizing ideas that claims that something we see every day—the trees in our literal backyards!—might have a much deeper story, if only we looked closer. Equally intriguing is the idea that Ogren, as the creator of this concept, might be some kind of hustler, as Taber claims: Who doesn't love a good old-fashioned grift? (And in particular: Has any other grift involved tree pollen, of all things?) But how much can we really blame "botanical sexism" for our allergies? The answer is, predictably, more complicated than any pithy TikTok or tweet thread can adequately convey.

:marseyakshuallytalking:

In her debunking thread, Taber calls Ogren a hustler in the very first tweet. "Spreading this disinfo around is just doing free advertising for him," she says. She takes issue with a key tenet of the botanical sexism idea: "There are no 'male vs. female trees' for most species. It is impossible to plant only male trees," she writes. This is true; while some trees are dioecious, meaning there are distinct male and female individuals, the vast majority are not. A forester at the University of Georgia School of Forestry estimated that globally, only about 5 percent of trees are dioecious; the rest are monoecious, cosexual, or polygamous, meaning a single tree can have both male and female reproductive organs.

>science hippy bullshit

Wrong. All trees are boys and all flowers are girls. End of story.

Even though this is crazy feminist bullshit, I actually do believe that on some level the government plants male trees because the idea of people just being able to walk outside and have a snack is incongruent with the soviet-style planned command economy imagery where everyone has to go to restraunts and grocery stores. The anti-car leftoids are sort of right in a tedpilled sort of way.

But seeing the transgender freaks totally counterract and defuse any sort of feminism like defusing the bomb in csgo is good for dramacoin

ERM? have you considered that intersex people exist? your argument is invalid. I am not going to explain why, because its so obvious I just destroyed you feminists with facts and logic.

How can women be opressed if women don't even exist and also the idea of gender is sexist, racist, imperialist and heteronormative.

Or they just don't plant fruit trees for a myriad of other reasons.

oy vey! planting fruitful trees is le slightly more inconvenient for me as a government bureaucrat? This is why we can't have nice things. This is why we have homeless spikes on park benches. Wait, this reminds me of something... hits pipe

:#marseypipe:

I cannot think or comprehend of anything more cucked than planting a fruit-bearing tree. Honestly, think about it rationally. You are planting, fertilizing, watering and trimming a tree for at decades solely so she can go and get picked by another man. All the hard work you put into your beautiful little sapling- grinding her mulch, trimming her branches, making sure she had a healthy amount of water, killing the weeds, decorating her for christmas. All of it has one simple result: her fruit is more enjoyable for the men that will eventually pick her every branch.

Raised the perfect fruit-bearing tree? Great. Who benefits? If you're lucky, a random man who had nothing to do with the way she grew up, who eats her fruit. He gets to eat her succulent fruit every season. He gets the benefits of her crispy and sweet food that came from the way you raised her.

As a city planner who plants fruit-bearing trees, you are LITERALLY dedicating at decades of your life simply to maintain a tree for another man to enjoy. It is the ULTIMATE AND FINAL cuck. Think about it logically

America is home of the ghetto (lawsuit) lottery. "Apples falling from the tree I parked under smashed my windshield. I took home pears from the park, made a pie, and now I'm sick. Time to sue the government." Hence no fruit.

Same reason why America has given up on building public fountains and parks with water features as compared to the rest of the developed world. Someone gets drunk, trips, and drowns in six inches of water, city's staring down a multi-million dollar lawsuit.

We should strength sovereign immunity: No negligence claims against the state and gross negligence claims follow the contributory negligence rule.

The government should mandate that we only plant male Ginko Biloba trees, since the fruit the females grow literally smells like dog shit.
