    Many young boys and girls where in the west that have changed their gender, many of those have taken their life later on in life becuse they regreted it. Just remember that most young ones are insecure about small stuff like shoes, cloths and body, so too push young adult that is basicaly insecure about everything in their life to change their gender is not good at all.. It should at least be something they had to wait a long time to do so they get more mature in their thinking box.

    About your first point: you shouldn't feel bad about using "you" in English, because it _IS_ the polite form. There are a lot of influences, but just like Bbl and TbI are like the French _vous_ and _tu_, the _you_ is the _vous_ and the _tu_ used to be _du_ (like still in German). In Dutch, the polite form is still _U_, and how is that letter pronounced in English? Indeed: you. So despite people not realizing it, in English they actually ONLY have the polite form. To those who are going to argue that the polite form used to be "thou", I say it's wrong. _Thou_ is the _du_ I referred to, only in a more formal form, reserved for religious texts, official addresses and poetry. In Dutch that one still exists as well, as _gij_ which is the formal, religious version of _jij_ that in old times used to be more widely used in all uses of language and currently still exists in most Flemish dialects. (which is why the Dutch consider the Flemish to be so polite, while in Flanders the very same word is considered very informal and thus not polite at all)

    The beating about the bush is an American (north, central and south) thing in general because the people tend to make decisions on an emotional basis instead of racional like most European countries do! People don't tell you things straight in your face but rather to everyone except you which many Europeans experience as sneaky or at least disrespectful! Directness like we practise in the Netherlands (masters in it) isn't rude because it doesn't involve cursing (most of times) unless you fucked up badly! You fuck up, you get a face full (it's social education to ensure you won't fuck up again which is of course in YOUR best interest)! We dutchies don't like CONFUSION and that's the reason we are so brutally direct and to the point! The ONLY thing that can kill confusion or misconception instantly is brutal directness!

We all think it's funny (especially North Americans and Britons) because of sad soulful Russia stereotype, so after about two winters exposure everything including the cheerful happy animal made from car tires looks hauntingly bleak, demented, and demonic. Actually you know what I just realized, literally most of the enemies in Atomic Heart is just playground decoration before Russian winter, then transforms to children's playground decoration AFTER first Russian winter. kzread.infoIwzmENsXCcc like now to think about it I am actually SHOCKED at how accurate that actually is kzread.info/dash/bejne/kah5yceTorK1eLA.html it's like the Russian devs literally just sat outside their kruschova and said "hey, what if all the playground decorations came alive.

    A version of the "man should not be more beautiful than a monkey"-quote is in the 1975 book "Tante Jolesch oder der Untergang des Abendlandes (Aunt Jolesch or the demise of the Occident) by the Austrian author Friedrich Torberg. The book is set in the time of the end of the Austrian monarchy and early times of the Republic. The real life "model" of "aunty Jolesch" is supposed to be a Ms. Gisela Salacz, born in 1875 in what is today Oradea/ Veľký Varadín,/Großwardein in today's Romania which then was within the Hungarian Comitat Bihar and hence within the Austro-Hungarian empire. She married a Julius Jolesch in 1893 and moved with him to Vienna. In 1938 the real person moved to Prague, whereas in the book she dies in 1932. The book is a sympathetic reminiscence to the spirit of the Austro-Hungarian empire and a lot of sarcastic comments of "Aunt Jolesch" are quoted therein. The one about monkeys and apes is "Every level of a man's beauty beyond that of a monkey is luxury". Not sure, how Torberg came to this (he didn't really have an "Aunt Jolesch"), but I assume the quote might be more widely used in Eastern European / Slavic traditions....

    It was a big problem in the 1970-s and 1980-s. People had free time and money, but not much to spend it to. Plus, at the time there was a huge influx of rural people, moving into the big cities, switching from farming (hard manual labor with no fixed hours) to relatively relaxed, fixed hours jobs. Again, more money, more free time, but the old hillbilly habits. Hence huge problem with alcoholism. The problem did propagated into the 1990s, but then people going poorer, having more things to spend money at and having to work harder, the problem started to die out by early 2000-s.

    I think several languages have polite and casual second-person forms; German certainly does with du and Sie. You shouldn’t worry about your English because you’ve obviously had excellent formal training and therefore express yourself better than most English speakers (especially Americans, who are unaware of the indefinite article ‘an’).

    Fun fact: *You* in English was originally the plural form, equivalent to Вы in Russian. But English speakers are so polite we used that form constantly and lost the singular form which is *thou* ...mostly, it is used in olde timey stuff like certain translations of the Bible. This is also why in American at least we have invented other ways of expressing you plural...you all (y'all), you guys, youse, yinns.

    "Вы" in Russian isn't just plural..although it can be, but it is also used to show respect to a person who is older or someone you don't know very well, or authority figure. Or sometimes even if a person has achieved great heights in what they do. Ex. There is this singer in Russia, (SHAMAN) real name Yaroslav Dronov he is so famous right now everyone in Russia knows who he is, he is very respected for some songs he did on serious topics. He's 32 now, but looks about 10 years younger at about 22, and in one video there were young guys 17-20 years old and they referred to him by "Вы" because they respect him, not because he's older. He told them that it is ok to say "Ты" when referring to him, but they refused and continued to say "Вы" out of respect. Another point is that you have to obtain permission from the higher status person to drop the "Bы" or you can be in trouble with them, or you can also get scolded if you continuously use "Bы" after being told to stop several times.
