GC: Do you think it's possible for there to be sex change, "male pregnancy", a third sex, etc, with the use of technology and genetic engineering?

No meat grown in a lab would still be meat even of its artificially created. Artificial just means made by humans

“Artificial just means made by humans”

Oh you and your half truths lol

You said it wouldn’t be real meat, but it would be considered meat.

I actually said nothing about the meat and only pointed out that you ignored most of the meaning of artificial to try to pretend that manufactured/man made meat would be the same.

It wouldn’t be.

Because one would be man made.

That would be the difference. One would be artificial. One would not be.

When you went to the store to buy meat, the man made meat would be labeled as such. Because it wouldn’t be the same as real meat.

It would absolutely be real meat

Every single article I just read, including the one you linked, references the fact that there is dispute about whether or not this will legally be allowed to be classified as “real” meat or not lol

Also- even if it is considered “real”- they would still label this meat and traditionally obtained meat separately. Other articles discuss the differences in taste and texture as well as the differences in “cleanliness” between the two.

This lab meat is admittedly much closer to the real deal it’s emulating than the neo genitals that trans people have constructed. But the differences are still there and they will never quite be the same.

Yes, and? That' s what I said, that it would be artificial meat made in a laboratory, so different in its origin from the natural thing. There would still be a difference, that difference could be very small if the result is incredibly similar to the natural thing, but it' s never going to be completely the same, because they way it is born as is different.

You didn’t say natural meat you said “real” meat. Meat grown in a lab would still be real meat.

Cool, point still stands, the origin is different so it will never be the same as "natural" meat. There will always be a distinction and they will never be the same, and there will always be the need to point out the origin of the thing so that people can choose whether to consume the natural product or the artificial one.

Nah natural is subjective. Are humans not a part of nature?

What?

No....it wouldn't, it would be LIKE meat, but it would not be real meat.

[–]HeimdeklediROAR 1 insightful - 4 fun1 insightful - 3 fun2 insightful - 4 fun -  (4 children)

It would definitely be real meat

How come everything we think is subjective but you can authoritatively state this is real meat? Why does subjectivity get thrown out for your opinions?

[–]HeimdeklediROAR 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

My viewpoint is also subjective

Yet you say twaw and expect us to follow, you regularly call us bigots, and make absurd claims about the sex matrix and present them as fact
