1.? Have you ever heard of the Dunning -Kruge Effect?
?
Had heard of the name Dunning Kruger but didn't know what it was. I have observed it however, many times, or something like it. What I have observed is not-very-bright people who think they're the smartest people in the room. Happens all the time. But the description of Dunning Kruger is a little different; it's about specific knowledge, and applies to all of us, in any subject about which we are not well informed.?

4.? What one item of foreign aid woul save the most lives worldwide at the lowest cost?
?
Capitalism. Any country with all the qualities and components of capitalism, which includes the rule of law, individual responsibility, individual autonomy, individual ownership, and others (that is, not the semi-capitalism practiced by China) will become prosperous, and nothing saves lives like prosperity. How to give it to them is the question. It takes good governance, and we can't even manage that any more in our own western countries, with our history and tradition of all the qualities needed.

5l.? Should men who want to play on women's athletic teams have to undergo a cliteriectomy?
?
No. It is not possible. A clitorectomy can only be done on a female, since only females have a clitoris to remove. Men who want to play on women's athletic teams are men, they are not women. They do not have a clitoris.
And performing a penectomy or phallectomy (removal of the penis) and an orchiectomy (removal of the testicles) would not help, although it would be good to do on men who want to go into women's dressing rooms, bathrooms and prisons. But it wouldn't help in sports. As soon as a male goes through puberty, he develops the greater size, strength and speed that make competing against women unfair and, in some sports, dangerous. All the surgery and hormones in the world, for the rest of his life, will not significantly change that. Much simpler and more sensible to divide people into teams based on biological sex, not imagined gender "identity". Also dressing rooms, bathrooms and prisons should be divided based on biological sex, not fantasy. A man without his junk could not rape women in those places, but he is still bigger and stronger and faster and could assault them and hurt them very badly. Keep him out.
