Eh, at the end of the day, Men are predators.

Okay, so we implement some sort of curfew system?

What!? Are you just agreeing with that? Most men are NOT predators people! Seriously.

Not sure if they're serious or not...

Swarm it with about 200 variously armed dwarves after it's spotted by the guard dog.

WWUD if a Kobold thief stole the Bronze Colossus kill from him right before he was going to deliver the decapitating blow?

In all fairness resisting arrest with no just cause is a pretty valid thing to be charged for.

But reading the article further I can see why that law can be a lot more harmful then helpful.

Wait, do you mean...
1. the arrest has no just cause
2. resisting with no just cause

You don't have time to move out of the way, but you can twist/turn a bit so you don't take the full force. You are finding a weaker area in the not-perfectly-uniform AoE.

As for the "strength to hit" thing, that's sort of the default instinctual thing. Finesse takes a bit more skill, so you would normally need special practice to do it properly. Further, not all weapon profiles benefit much from the increased precision. Strength, on the other hand, might not give as much fine movement, but you can physically swing it faster and harder, making it more difficult to dodge. Dexterity is muscle control, not raw speed.

Also, I don't see this thread sticking around too long.

Might I ask why you think that?

In most places, it is common to see certain facilities as gender segregated, like bathrooms and locker rooms. The concept of transgender creates conflict with the system.

What do you think should be done about it? Should there be additional transgender facilities alongside the male and female ones (and if so, how many)? Should everything just be unisex? Who should be the decider in all of this? Any additional thoughts?

there's no point worrying about stuff you can't change, and doing so will only impede you in improving stuff that you CAN change.

Sometimes you need to focus on what you can't change, or you may never get the means to change it. And considering this is potentially an existential crisis for the entire species, we, collectively, really need to figure this out.

Another "sure thing" job fell through, this time explicitly because of corporate cutting the already critically low hours.
