I highly recommend checking out LGBT organizations in your area, some of them have hobby clubs and meetups and whatnots (if there's none in your local area try calling one anyway, maybe there are people interested in being online friends).

The question you asked screams lack of confidence and honestly the best cure would be to add some queer friends.

Of course it's okay to say "when I was a little boy". Why wouldn't it be? Did someone told you it's not okay to say that? Who was it?

but my friend corrected me and said i meant “people who get pregnant”, because men (like trans men but still men) can get pregnant

I think the correct response is to ask that friend why are they trying to pivot the discussion from women abortion. Was she trying to rail you up? Discourage your argument or position by implying you're not good enough?

Honestly, she sounds like she preemptively gets offended on other people behalf, or like someone who weaponizes "being more PC than you".

Or she knows a pregnant man (I think the stats were about 100 a year get pregnant, most of them immediately go to a clinic) personally and decided it's the perfect time to use that fact to win the discussion? Or virtue signaling? I mean I'm assuming something is wrong with her, because that situation is random and unexpected.

I can never understand this kind of puzzles.

Why the heck it's always assumed the opponent will play like an ass? Block the pointy hat on a5 with the mob on b6 instead?

There is value in feminisim because women’s rights are “new” and that is to say that there are people alive who grew up in a time where women’s rights were considered a joke.

I'd like to remind everyone that men's rights are new too. For example, in the UK, women got rights to vote in 1928. Men got it in 1918, a whole 10 years earlier.

Most of the population was (and continues to be) under the boot of the wealthy, their rights immaterial.

The only wage gap we should be focusing on now is the gap between ultra rich capitalists and the worker class.

Anything else we can worry after we take care of that dumpster fire.

You might be confusing using functions with functional programming. Python is Object Oriented language at it's core, most people use it as procedural, and like most modern languages it supports also functional paradigms.
