Rights are considered inalienable.

Untrue; there are legal rights which are certainly alienable (that's actually how power of attorney works).

“Untrue; there are legal rights which are certainly alienable (that’s actually how power of attorney works).”

Wrong.

All Women are people
You are a man.
Therefore, you are not a person.

Deductive fallacy 101.

There are inalienable, natural rights. See Hobbes, Locke, Pain, Jefferson, Lilburn, Walwyn, Williams . . . or maybe you missed those authors.

Obviously not all rights are natural rights. That does NOT mean all rights are alienable.
