This was something I added while you gentlemen were busy responding: More accurately, however, in regards to the blurring of the sexes, is the relative difficulty in differentiating one sex from the other---i.e., vocations, attire, hairstyles, etc.. This is a modern phenomenon, , characteristic of the high value we place upon our 'thinking function', not present in more 'primitive' cultures. Societies are much larger and much more complex than they ever have been. Individuals are no longer born into a life of serfdom where they must only wear drab clothing. (Remember only a couple of decades ago the Chinese all wore the same attire). Women don't wear corsets anymore because they impeded their function in weapons factories during WWI. To accomodate the diversity our thinking, in general, has also become less rigid.

It's also been said that blurring of the sexes has been around since the year dot in all sorts of societies. The main difference today in western societies seems to me that the drugs, medications and surgeries are available to effect the physical transformations for those that want them - if they can afford the cost of them. Another 'difference'(?) noteworthy in today's world: Moral condemnation of the anomaly of transsexualism. Man is so tied to dull truth, so wrapped in a fear; he is so plagued with all evil that never comes near. - John Shaw Neilson.

How on earth can two large boats run into each other on a great area of water , it is not logical unless some were sleeping on the job Will they in London have to allow only bikes in the city . She now says ""the best thing about being a girl is , now I don't have to pretend to be a boy "" ,she is 9 years old , The """" Gender Revolution """ , what is the future of humans , researchers have only begun to document this fast changing legal topic , over a third of countries allow a gender change , many places in the world are very dangerous for a girl in life , the stories are so hard to believe and sad to read . What is a Agender or Androgynous or Cisgender or Gender binary or Gender conforming or etc etc etc etc , It has been said that the blurring of the sexes is typical of societies in which the value of the intellect is paramount. That means that we humans can 'think' ourselves into anything that we can imagine. It's also been said that blurring of the sexes has been around since the year dot in all sorts of societies. The main difference today in western societies seems to me that the drugs, medications and surgeries are available to effect the physical transformations for those that want them - if they can afford the cost of them.

Country music family would welcome a teen female to replace Miss Taylor Swift etc , Jackie M Evancho would be a delightful return to country an perhaps be a big hit as her " She Knew " at 8 years old was a delight imo so why would she not be now ? . youtu.be/yOCSsi1-r8 She hasn't done much in the way of country since then. There are some good country songs but I don't get the impression she's much interested in it. Just the same, she could surprise us one day. I hear that James Breedwell who wrote that song has written a new song and wants her to sing it.

He didn't think much of Caruso. I did like Caruso She did well with it. It and Attesa are the two most classical style songs on that album. Attesa is my pick of them. I just think it's a more beautiful song.

I hope those who read the above realize I was being a smart a-s for Skyhawk's benefit. I frankly don't know whether Awakening resulted in the loss of album sales for Jackie. I think, as I've opined elsewhere, the sales drop is due more likely to endemic industry issues that all in her business are facing and share. The release of this rather esoteric album and its lackluster sales performance may be coincidental with those larger issues. Many love the album. Her performance of its songs is inimitable. Unmatchable. She technically nails everyone of them. But in my humble opinion, it did not have the pop and sizzle of her previous albums. (according to my taste). That Awakening appealed mainly to her core audience. Her faithfuls. (imho). But I truly think the larger problem is the seemingly intractable myriad of issues facing the industry she's in. Few are immune. Wonder what he would think pf Two Hearts He didn't think much of Caruso.

I love her handling of The Way We Were. She drifts through it so beautifully. No one does wistful mellow like Jackie. I love How Great Thou Art, but am so used to hearing it sung by a congregation with minimal instrumentation. The orchestral arrangement starts to overwhelm her towards the end. It would be great to hear her sing this song with only the backing of a choir some day.

If the fence is not kept up to shape the big red kangaroo can cross it, but there are lots of kangaroos on both sides. There is debate about the effectiveness of the fence. It's like with the wolf in America, some scientists are now saying that ecologically the landscape would be in better shape with more dingoes in it as they keep kangaroo and pest species numbers down. Dingoes clean out foxes and cats which are destroying our small native animals. The fence is also being trashed by camels, and there is talk of upgrading it to a much more substantial one. theconversation.com/lets-move-the-worlds-longest-fence-to-settle-the-dingo-debate-37155I don't like Dingoes , be careful if they kill the beauty foxes and cats then the family pets and small natives may be next , can the people control the birth of foxes and cats and lower the population of dingoes The small native animals are the natural prey of the dingo. Dingoes range widely and do not threaten the numbers of the smaller animals, whereas foxes and cats do. Dingoes only go after sheep when their natural prey are not available. The person who can come up with a birth control solution for the fox and cat problem will become famous.

We've all seen Jackie in some very stylish gowns and dresses, but in this one she makes me think of someone in particular... hmmm, yes, that's who - Helen of Troy!

I love Instagram but I hate that there're so many ghosts and fakes. I don't want to see them among my community. That's why I use spamguardapp.com to delete them and block them forever. Commercial accounts? Forget about them too. And how do you feel about ghost followers? Hi Veliz. Ghost followers are the silent majority. No one is obliged to comment or like. Here we call them guests. They know they are welcome to join and participate, but it's their choice.

Here's our beautiful dingo proof fence. We've also got a rabbit proof fence over 2,000 miles long. It's to stop the rabbits on either side of it from fraternising with each other. DogfenceFar out ,yes in Coober Pedy , no Trump wall needed , haha , what about the kanggorros ? can they jump over ?

With the benefit of hindsight, I think the second disc with the pop songs would have been better released as a stand alone aimed directly at the pop market. The problem with it attached to the CC disc, is that the younger listeners who like pop would be reluctant to buy a disc of CC just to get four new pop songs. I note that you can buy it now as a separate disc, but that would have been better had it been from day one. As I say, benefit of hindsight.

It might be to late for her to write "Something", but she can still sing it, if she wants.

I once read years ago that the longest dog fence in the world is in Australia , 3,307 miles long , erected to keep dingoes not bingoes out of sleep country . good thing robins can fly over it . Winter times in Yellow Stone one must travel 500 miles by snow-mobiles to find wildest wildlife , takes 4 days , yikes !! i'll pass on that trip . Here's our beautiful dingo proof fence. We've also got a rabbit proof fence over 2,000 miles long. It's to stop the rabbits on either side of it from fraternising with each other.
