    Queer autonomous student groups are a super common thing in Australia so I'm just kind of mystified by people saying that would get closed down in their universities. My uni's ...

  • Serious Discussion and Debate Re: Sex-selective Abortion

    The issue with sex-selective abortion is not abortion, it is sexism. So the thing that needs to be challenged is not sex-selective abortion itself, it is the ingrained sexism behind ...

    EDIT: Ping beat me to it. Everything they said, except the last bit. Well to start with I am not Ping. :P I'll just make myself clear though. The bit ...

    So what if LGBT people murdered and raped straight people? (Also where the heck did "straighties" come from?) Then we would have a problem. And the "straighties" thing is Karz ...

  • Serious Discussion and Debate Re: Unfaithful Kisses

    An unfaithful kiss would, I suppose, be kissing someone when you have lead someone else to believe that you won't kiss anyone but them. So, I don't really see how ...

    If drugs were to become legal, I'd rather have them extremely regulated, preferably to the point where I won't have to worry about edgy drugged-up people attempting to harm me ...

    I just took an exam on drugs today! (it's an anthopology subject about drug use in different cultures) I am for legalisation, regulation, and taxation of pretty much any drugs ...

    AH, that makes more sense. Maybe quote who you're responding to in the future to avoid confusion.

    No, Pigeon. Like I just said, I'm saying that it's possible to be straight, even if you become gay later. That's all I'm saying. This could literally work for everything. ...

    Are you saying that people are always straight until proven to be something else? That makes zero sense.

  • Serious Discussion and Debate Re: LGBT people

    Are you not a virgin until you dip into intercourse? And thus, are you not straight until proven gay? False equivalencies, much? You're assuming that the default for everyone is ...

  • Serious Discussion and Debate Re: Public Nudity

    But Snoink, that doesn't even remotely answer the question. Why are breasts special things just for the love of your life? That, I think, implies that they are sexual, and ...

    I'm seeing quite a bit of defeatism in this thread; a lot of "people will always think that" and "there's nothing we can do to change it", and some "you ...

    Yup, and I was just pointing out that your position was unfounded, for anyone who might not have been aware. Personally, I do not even remotely care what determines sexual ...

    I strongly disagree with the thought that people are born with a sexual preference, whether it be straight or gay. It is a choice, one influenced by how you are ...
