apple's software update checks will not work with ocsp blocked, you have to temporarily allow it to get updates. also there are bugs in the UI; if you have it blocked it will tell you your system is up to date (with a current "last checked" timestamp) when it's actually not.

is transgenderism an innate trait of a human being or is it a choice/decision made by the person?

what are the arguments (right or wrong) or evidence supporting or debunking the answer?

i am interested in philosophical examinations of opposing, warring viewpoints. i'm pro-choice, for example, but i also recognize that the right to an abortion is a *legitimately* contentious issue because the anti-choice argument is *logically sound* given its premise of human life beginning at conception (a premise with which i do not agree). anti-choice people aren't acting in bad faith, they're just wrong/dumb.
