Well, I mean, you did equate a gender change to cleft lip in order to mock that reasoning. I was just making sure that you weren't saying they were equal.

Isnt that a very NSFW song?
Yeah, probably. Edited.
Somewhat related - I photographed a dance recital today and one of the numbers was choreographed to Minaj's Anaconda. It was the radio safe version, but seeing a bunch of girls ages 8-14 dancing to it still felt so wrong.
