Just wanted to poke my head up and say that I'm a socialist, and I believe it should be a replacement, not an addition. There is nothing about socialism that inherently requires you to choose either position on the matter of a basic income.

I feel like before puberty it's got to be sort of a crap shoot as to whether you like, abhor, or are indifferent to the other gender. Of course kids are aware boys and girls are different, but do you find that difference interesting or gross? And why? Until hormones come along and give you a sexual and romantic need to fulfil, it could go either way for any little reason (or you could be fairly neutral / disinterested, for that matter). Maybe just based on early random experiences with the other gender and how they went for you.

I guess potential readers care as it helps them know whether or not to read it.

Edit: I'm just thinking about how you said "anyone can write a book" as if that invalidates my question. Like, yeah, literally anyone can write a book. Exactly. That's why it should matter to readers whether the person who wrote the book actually has anything interesting to say?
