How dare Mike Godwin make a law to control hyperbolic analogies on internet forums! I tell you, it's worse than Nazi Germany!

I came across Godwin's law in a random wikitrawl the other day, and it's actually quite good. I think that it could be modified for online tranny forums.

EnVérité's (first) Law would be something like: The moment an debater plays the "TS vs. TV" card on a tranny forum the thread is immediately ended and the perpetrator should be seen to have lost the argument.

Any chance of that being widely adopted? :-)

Clarissa You wouldn't of course happen to have someone in mind, would you?

Rachel I'd agree with EnVérité's (first) Law, with one exception. TS's should be exempt because they're superior.

Joanna You may think that Clarissa. I couldn't possibly comment. ;)

kittenarmy TSes should absolutely not be exempt. We're insufferable enough as it is.

eeore Genital mutilation should not be a reason for superioty.

On issues of femininity, we should settle this like girlies and decide the winner on who is the prettiest..... lol
