When people start failing to recognise other peoples'
'personhood', reacting to people as their bodies rather than on an empathetic level, that's when shit gets bad. That's when people excuse treating others like shit. Surely you consider yourself to be more than your external appearance?

Would I like to be seen only as my body? no
Do I object to people noticing that I have one and reationg to it as the physical object it is? No.
I don't see that the one necessarily implies the other althou I can see how it can do. Cheers for the clarification.

I think it's when it's one without the other
i, personally feel weird when people comment on my physical form. I see it more like a machine that carries my brain around. But at least now people can comment on my tat - I'm cool with that.

I don't disagree
But I tend to see both mind and body of integral parts of who we are. Ther's an interesting conversation to be had about this, but now is not likely the time, not least as I am soon to head to bed and you may. Already be there

We hardly know each other, what ever Darth may say.

Actually you'd be safe, I'm not in my bed andway.
