PR, I'm not sure you're aware of this but people's moral foundations vary. My grandfather had some pretty horrible ideas about what he should be allowed to do to his family.Psychic Robot wrote:They sure are. Like not being able to shoot someone because you don't like him or her? That's a moral foundation. And not being able to beat your spouse? That's a moral foundation right there. And not being able to urinate in public? Well, that's a grey area.

The only serious reason to ban human-animal hybrids is because humans will try to have sex with them. You know it will happen eventually.CatharzGodfoot wrote: The only serious reason to ban human-animal hybrids is the difficulty of defining exactly what counts as human in a legal sense.
In this moment, I am Ur-phoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my int score.

Abortion isn't really even about feminism or any of that crap. It's effectively about answering the question of whether a fetus is a person and entitled to the basic human rights.
If the answer to that question is yes, then abortion is murder. If the answer to that question is no, then abortion is simply a medical procedure like any other.
Now honestly, I don't presume to answer that question, but right now the world is crowded as it is, and I would think it a bad thing to bring a child into a family that doesn't love it, so I'm pro-choice. As evil as it sounds, we can totally afford to live in a world with one less baby eating up resources.

I really don't have time to share my thoughts on the subject, but
this might be relevant to a serious discussion of feminism and gender roles.

"But transportation issues are social-justice issues. The toll of bad transit policies and worse infrastructure—trains and buses that don’t run well and badly serve low-income neighborhoods, vehicular traffic that pollutes the environment and endangers the lives of cyclists and pedestrians—is borne disproportionately by black and brown communities."

I don't know if that counts though. All accounts I have heard about Swedish men point to them being more femme than American woman. (Then again, I live in an area where females tend to be loud, hulking mountain women who tend to solve gender issues by knocking men the fuck out.)
Edit: Really though now that I think about it, it seems to be working slightly. I see lots of women in supervisory/management positions despite being in one of the most conservative areas of the country.
