    We have survived 44 presidents, both Republican and Democrat. I am sure we will survive #45.

    What?? Please take a second to think about the logistics of what you just wrote. If someone has female genitalia, they are a female, and vice versa for male. This whole issue is a mental illness issue. And before you label me a bigot and hateful and whatever else, look up Gender Identity Disorder and Gender Dysphoria. They are medically recognized mental disorders that they are trying to find a cure for.

    I am all for people getting help, but getting the right kind of help is the only real solution. Chopping something off or putting something there that isn't doesn't make the real problem go away.
    What kind of help are you getting for your mental illness?

    You know, I've actually come around on a lot of issues, and I do support gay marriage and other lgbt rights, but I don't know about this whole bathroom business.

    I mean, what's to stop some pervert from just declaring that they're transgender all of a sudden, and then the pervert can just go on a city-wide tour of women's restrooms, and changing rooms and other places that are only for females?

    What do females have to say about this? They're the ones that will have to be subjected to the intruder in their bathroom.

    Would a parent want their underaged daughter to be using the same restrooms that a big hairy male uses?

    I'm just saying.
    What has there ever been to stop someone? Why would you think perverts look for cover?  There are much better ways, like becoming a priest if you want to victimize children. Or go to college where you can rape with near immunity. Be like Bill Cosby and make people laugh and see how long you can get away with drugging and raping women. So since you say you have come around on other issues, maybe you just need to be patient and you may eventually come around on this one. Fear tends to fade after time.

    Plain and Simple the iPhone just lasts longer. In the time I've owned my 6 Plus my son has retired two new android phones, and my wife has just retired hers. These android phones just died or got screen problems that made it useless. I'll stick with Apple. My Macbook is another story, it's only a 2011 and it's obsoleted from using the latest OS's. The mac line used to last forever and the OS's didn't slow 3 or 4 year old models to a crawl. My iMac also crashes all the time but it is a 2010 model, but that's still a lot less duration of new OS compatibility. Old Macs like when they were beige and even after the iMac would last a lot longer and would be upgradeable each year for at least 6 or 7 years or more.
    I'll have to mention that to my 2007 iMac that's running El Capitan just fine.
    No more updates though.  Nine years and it's over to my shop for web browsing, music, email and spreadsheets.
    Hoping the new 5K will last that long. 
    I think this really illustrates the point. I just upgraded my 2007 iMac for a 4K SSD. I would not have upgraded  if the old one had not just gotten so slow. There really is nothing new that the new one does, it just does it faster. Now the phones are a different story. My 6S is a completely different phone compared to my 3G. It does so many things the old one didn't.  So if you want to talk about something that is not evolving your right to point out it is the personal computer and these are on at least a two year refresh cycle and often one.
