Be more friendly and welcoming in the communication of one's opinions.
We have no control over whether or not someone is scared to share their opinion.
Compare 'I'm not sure abortion is always the right choice' with 'All people who are pro-abortion are disgusting'. Not that people have been as extreme as the latter, but the latter will put people off from replying in a way the former won't.
I agree that it is a problem. But realistically, what can we do about that? We have no control over whether or not someone is scared to shar… moree their opinion. Everybody has a right to their opinion, but we don't have the right to sharing an opinion with the 100% security that no one is going to disagree and call us out. Hell, most of the time when I share my opinion I get a lot of backlash, and I don't normally get a huge amount of support. That doesn't stop me from asserting my stance though, because I'm confident in my opinion. People will always have opinions that clash, there's nothing that can be done about that. My only advice would be that it is imperative to have the utmost confidence in your stance while asserting your pov, where as the amount of people agreeing/disagreeing with you should be irrelevant.
Likely pushing gender-neutral toilets, getting rid of gendered toys, making all kinds of occupation discrimination illegal etc.
For examp… morele, gay people in the 80s fought for gay marriage. Now we have that after 30 years of hard fighting, we turn our eye to the ingrained homophobia in our society, such as the use of homophobic language, and trying to eradicate it.
Feminism already is egalitarianism.
No. Don't even try to compare that diarrhea vomited abortion that is feminism to egalitarianism,… more it's insulting to Washington.
Feminism has done wonderful things for men. For example, a big push in feminism at the moment is for it to become acceptable for men to wear 'feminine clothes'
Oh boy that'll surely lead us to space colonization
It should be evident enough that we are open to hearing other opinions seeing as we're on a public forum. It's not as though we're saying "nobody is allowed to disagree with me or refute my argument etc.".
I see what you mean. But I haven't read any posts in this thread that are lashing out at the person for their opinion. I've only seen posts saying that they disagree with their opinion and here's why, or their statement is wrong and here's why etc. Albeit some express their disagreement very passionately, but I don't really see the problem with that. And tbh, with a subject as touchy as abortion, any debate about it is always going to end up becoming personal because for many it's a question of morality.That's why most threads having to do with abortion end up getting closed.

You act like there aren't sexual assault or rape in those places. I'm reading exactly what you're saying. There are still DOZENS of problems associated with this. There is no point in it, why change a non broken system.
I don't even give a shit about this, I just want to know why risk this when there's no point.
Again, in places that have them there is statistically no increase in sexual assault or rape. Are you even reading what I'm saying?
I know change is scary. But it's been proven that gender-neutral toilets really don't do bad shit.
Not expecting you to read this, as you tend to ignore posts once you've had your fill of mocking, but actually it's not trivial and it is harming people. A hell of a lot of research has been done on it. It's a form of societal indoctrination. Indoctrination is bad.

I am against all forms of child mutilation in the name of religion. Its disgusting let the child reach an age where they can decide whether they want to follow that religion or not and allow them to make a choice. forcing life changing surgery on an infant or child is abuse.

I said that I am opposed to the mutilation of children in the name of religion by that I mean whether it is male or female genital mutilation scarification or any other form of altering a child body in a permanent manner without there expressed consent, which wouldn't realy be valid untill they are old enough to fully understand the impact of the decision.
I cant be opposed to some and not to "lesser" forms of these practices. They are all wrong
You also said "forcing life changing surgery on children is abuse", which is what I was questioning. Circumcision can hardly be described as life changing surgery, and it's certainly not abuse. There is really no major impact. You're acting as if we're talking about some sort of monstrous procedure here, going as far as to label it as mutilation. The procedure carries health benefits, and it doesn't have any negative impact on quality of life. With that said, it isn't a big deal if the parents want their child to be circumcised, especially given that the procedure is less complicated and easier accomplished when done on a newborn opposed to a fully grown adult.

Altering a body in the name of religion is a life changing surgeory because it effects a persons identity which is a thing that should only evet belong to the individual.
There are also the obvious arguements surrounding sexual satisfaction but i cant be bothered with this anymore because this is obviously a arguement with no winners Iits just going to escalate. the bottom line is I have my opinions you have yours lets just leave it at that.

I think that's honestly how they feel. I mean they never seem to move out of your way when you go to get something and it's like they are purposely trying to run your foot over.
Altering a body in the name of religion is a life changing surgeory because it effects a persons identity which is a thing that should only evet belong to the individual.
Circumcision really has no impact on self identity. It's inconsequential. We're talking about a very, very minor thing here. The religious aspect of this is irrelevant, because regardless of reasoning, there are health benefits. There is no real negative impact.
There are also the obvious arguements surrounding sexual satisfaction
It's not even a fact that circumcision affects sexual satisfaction. The fact that it's debatable shows that we're again talking about something inconsequential... considering there isn't even a definite difference. Circumcised men can obviously still be sexually satisfied.

People who go all the way to Syria to join ISIS or worse, they decided to shoot up some people in their homes. What's worse is that some people dub this as ISIS' doing and that the radicals are merely just "victims."
Are you fucking serious? We're talking about people who willingly and deliberately sacrifice everything they could ever want in their life, just to throw all of it out the window to join a group of monsters who kill innocent civilians like flies on a wall...SOME ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PLANET. And if they can't, they decide to be pieces of shit and kill people in their homeland. And they are VICTIMS? Give me a fucking break.
That guy who left his home in Ottawa to go to Syria? I didn't see a victim. I saw a dipshit who abandoned who loving and caring mother to go to a desert shithole, and later made a video encouraging others to terrorize Canadian cities. Guess what now? He's dead. "Oh God, I feel so sorry for him. He's just a victim in this senseless war."
No he wasn't. He got killed, and deserved it. You make your own choices in life, and you either live with them or you die from them.
I will say that animal abuse is something I'm strongly against. Children who take pleasure in hurting animals are a major red flag for a future serial killer. I also am really against puppy mills, which is why one should never buy a dog from a pet store (unless it is sponsoring a rescue event) and always adopt instead.
Don't see why this is such a problem....my brother would play with baby dolls, barbies, and dress up with me and I played GI Joes, fake sword fighting, LEGOS, and video games with him. I think it's perfectly normal for boys and girls to be interested in the other gender's marketed toys.

Animal Abuse - I get that they are killed to feed those of us who choose to eat meat, however, what I don't understand is why some of the slaughter factories literally make animals suffer before their death, force them to live in cramped areas where they can only stand in one place, eat and poop in the same place, no freedom :c also I don't see why killing an animal for accessory is good in any way, shape or form, medicine I get, however, there are allot of substitutes for animal body parts.
Racial/Ethnic/Colour Hatred - Not just towards Black or White, but all races, ethnicities and skin tones. People seem to automatically judge people for their skin tone, or where they are from. People that originate from countries that have done evil in the world get hatred for something that was completely out of their control, some black people are still treated like inferiors, again, some white people are too, and these races often blame each other for the actions of those before them.
Religious/Atheistic Hatred - Atheists consistently attack those who believe what is unbelievable to them, whilst those who believe, can shove their beliefs down atheists' throats. Why can't we just accept the fact that people can believe and people don't have to believe. Also allot of the time, religious people are blamed for LGBT inequality but not every religious person is against it and each have different understandings of the word of God. Some atheists also disapprove of equality.
Inequality by Gender & Sexual Preference - Still in this modern day women and men are being treated unfair in certain areas around the world, usually it's women with the lower wages, but let's not forget who gave birth to us and of course men are often influenced into being the stereotypical male individual who does everything for his family. As for sexual preference, I don't really understand why people disapprove of something private that happens in someone else's life, gives me the sense that people who disapprove of it want a slice of the action, but yeah, people who like the same gender are often mocked and ridiculed for it, more males than females sometimes. Transsexual people are also attacked for wanting to be who they want to be. Heck, this sexuality card has been played to such an extent that Heterosexuals that don't act stereotypically are called Metrosexuals for being 'feminine'. While Asexuals are sometimes mocked for being alone because they can't find any reason to crush on someone.
Tried Acceptance For Paedophilia, Bestiality & Necrophilia - OK, so when it comes to acceptance of sexualities that are deemed 'unnatural' by certain people despite them evidently not knowing what the word 'natural' means, some people are trying to say relationships between a very old person and a very young individual should be tolerated, despite the relationship consisting of one who is fully matured and the other who most likely hasn't. Then there's Bestiality, some people feel like if humans can marry more than one gender of human, why not animals? Although this is legal in some places - I think, it's pretty difficult to know what the animal's say in the matter is. As for Necrophilia, do I even have to explain how it's pretty wrong for someone to violate a dead person's body?
Judgement in terms of age - This has always ticked me off, as a teenager, I always feel insulted when adults and elders consistently rant about how youth today is unintelligent and immature. Maturity can come in earlier stages of life for some people while others are immature till their date with Death. It's pretty disrespectful in my perspective how a whole age group is judged by the vocal minority, all those adults and elders were children once to and just to point out how not all students are unintelligent, in my school and many other schools across the globe, studies and certain subject topics that were once deemed university level are now being taught earlier in the academic process. Sorry if this seemed like a rant, it kind of is.

religious people are blamed for LGBT inequality but not every religious person is against it and each have different understandings of the word of God.
Let me make this clear for anyone who might not understand what God thinks about homosexuality:
Despite of any religious person's tries to make God seem to be ok with homosexuality, it is undeniably said in the Bible that He isn't. No matter what excuses religious people will make up, God is not in favor of it. That is not to be said against God or those people, it's a simple fact.
But:
Since homosexuality is a sin in God's eyes, and a sin in Hebrew is simply translated into the word "miss" - as in "you missed to understand God's will and acted against it" - there is nothing abominable about Homosexuality that isn't like any other sin in His eyes; That means that no matter what you do, a sin is a sin, and we're all impure. Therefore saying that gays "go to Hell" and "don't deserve equal rights" is so stupid, everyone who accepts Yeshua into their lives and lets Him live through you is reborn, no matter the race, gender or sexual preference.
God loves everyone equally, He does not distinguish us by stupid things like sexual preference, but by if we accept him or not. Do not let any incriminating pastor or sociopathic rabbi to tell you otherwise. Being gay alone does not condemn you to Hell.
This isn't anything I made up, or my personal opinion, I'm just making the scripture's stance on this clear.
So many things lol

The only thing I really care about is personal freedom.
People should be allowed to do and say what the wish as long as they dont hurt others. Freedom of speech is very important and its bad when people are made to feel inadequate or lesser for having certain opinions is what annoys me. Disagreement is fine and great however many people get on a high horse in many situations like it is unacceptable to have a different view on a very debatable topic.
Oh and I will say it annoys me when people go on about left and right wing, each issue has its own discussion and two or more sides you cant group every issue on the planet at once into two groups you have views on each issue

Though it's important to note the role of Wall Street as well, as speculation is what cause a rapid increase in the cost of basic needs in the Middle East which in turn was a lot of the reason behind the uprisings in Egypt and Syria.

They don't increase instances of rape or sexual assault. What other problems do you think they would cause?
Oh and what, replying to my post on the forum is going to change the entire future of the human race is it?
Not every single thing we do has to be ABSOLUTELY HUGE IN EVERY SINGLE WAY.
I'm saying that tone does far more than people realise.
What about people going in just to stare at genitals or stalking...There are many things that can go wrong Flog.
Again, in places that have them there is statistically no increase in sexual assault or rape. Are you even reading what I'm saying?

Well...Um...I'm curious.
Um, okay? I don't really think people making weird shit on the internet is an argument as to why something that is legally going to happen is bad.
Yeah, tell me, I have a few thoughts but I don't know.

How do you consider circumcision to be "life changing surgery"...? It's really not a big deal.
No it actually happens lol and it pisses me off. I mean I get it if you're really old or paralyzed, but damn it if you can walk do it.

Now I realise why I cringe before reading any of these sorts of threads on these forums. How right wing/conservative people are.
It all makes sense now, I was always so surprised at how many...ahem...outdated opinions were held here compared to other forums.
So many things lol
Animal Abuse - I get that they are killed to feed those of us who choose to eat meat, however, what I don't understand is why some of the slaughter factories literally make animals suffer before their death, force them to live in cramped areas where they can only stand in one place, eat and poop in the same place, no freedom :c also I don't see why killing an animal for accessory is good in any way, shape or form, medicine I get, however, there are allot of substitutes for animal body parts.

People that originate from countries that have done evil in the world get hatred for something that was completely out of their control, some black people are still treated like inferiors, again, some white people are too, and these races often blame each other for the actions of those before them.
Religious/Atheistic Hatred - Atheists consistently attack those who believe what is unbelievable to them, whilst those who believe, can shove their beliefs down atheists' throats. Why can't we just accept the fact that people can believe and people don't have to believe. Also allot of the time, religious people are blamed for LGBT inequality but not every religious person is against it and each have different understandings of the word of God. Some atheists also disapprove of equality.
Inequality by Gender & Sexual Preference - Still in this modern day women and men are being treated unfair in certain areas around the world, usually it's women with the lower wages, but let's not forget who gave birth to us and of course men are often influenced into being the stereotypical male individual who does everything for his family. As for sexual preference, I don't really understand why people disapprove of something private that happens in someone else's life, gives me the sense that people who disapprove of it want a slice of the action, but yeah, people who like the same gender are often mocked and ridiculed for it, more males than females sometimes. Transsexual people are also attacked for wanting to be who they want to be. Heck, this sexuality card has been played to such an extent that Heterosexuals that don't act stereotypically are called Metrosexuals for being 'feminine'. While Asexuals are sometimes mocked for being alone because they can't find any reason to crush on someone.
Tried Acceptance For Paedophilia, Bestiality & Necrophilia - OK, so when it comes to acceptance of sexualities that are deemed 'unnatural' by certain people despite them evidently not knowing what the word 'natural' means, some people are trying to say relationships between a very old person and a very young individual should be tolerated, despite the relationship consisting of one who is fully matured and the other who most likely hasn't. Then there's Bestiality, some people feel like if humans can marry more than one gender of human, why not animals? Although this is legal in some places - I think, it's pretty difficult to know what the animal's say in the matter is. As for Necrophilia, do I even have to explain how it's pretty wrong for someone to violate a dead person's body?
Judgement in terms of age - This has always ticked me off, as a teenager, I always feel insulted when adults and elders consistently rant about how youth today is unintelligent and immature. Maturity can come in earlier stages of life for some people while others are immature till their date with Death. It's pretty disrespectful in my perspective how a whole age group is judged by the vocal minority, all those adults and elders were children once to and just to point out how not all students are unintelligent, in my school and many other schools across the globe, studies and certain subject topics that were once deemed university level are now being taught earlier in the academic process. Sorry if this seemed like a rant, it kind of is.
Thank you for helping me clear it up, Belan :כ
Let me make this clear for anyone who might not understand what God thinks about homosexuality:
Despite of any religious person's tries to make God seem to be ok with homosexuality, it is undeniably said in the Bible that He isn't. No matter what excuses religious people will make up, God is not in favor of it. That is not to be said against God or those people, it's a simple fact.
But:
Since homosexuality is a sin in God's eyes, and a sin in Hebrew is simply translated into the word "miss" - as in "you missed to understand God's will and acted against it" - there is nothing abominable about Homosexuality that isn't like any other sin in His eyes; That means that no matter what you do, a sin is a sin, and we're all impure. Therefore saying that gays "go to Hell" and "don't deserve equal rights" is so stupid, everyone who accepts Yeshua into their lives and lets Him live through you is reborn, no matter the race, gender or sexual preference.
God loves everyone equally, He does not distinguish us by stupid things like sexual preference, but by if we accept him or not. Do not let any incriminating pastor or sociopathic rabbi to tell you otherwise. Being gay alone does not condemn you to Hell.
This isn't anything I made up, or my personal opinion, I'm just making the scripture's stance on this clear.
The only thing I really care about is personal freedom.
People should be allowed to do and say what the wish as long as they dont hurt others. Freedom of speech is very important and its bad when people are made to feel inadequate or lesser for having certain opinions is what annoys me. Disagreement is fine and great however many people get on a high horse in many situations like it is unacceptable to have a different view on a very debatable topic.
Oh and I will say it annoys me when people go on about left and right wing, each issue has its own discussion and two or more sides you cant group every issue on the planet at once into two groups you have views on each issue
Fucking thank you, I thought it was just me.
Nothings been cleared up its just as usual people refuse to listen to another persons opinion to the point that person cant be bothered to talk anymore.
THE HEALTH BENEFITS!
THE HEALTH BENEFITS! Fuck off! The health benefits are negligible and practically nonexistent, its a modern day excuse for a ancient tradition.
Who said Belan and I didn't listen to what you have to say?
The "HEALTH BENEFITS!" are very existent, and they're enough of a reason to perform the procedure.
And next time you try to talk about something, try and be a little more civil rather than telling me to fuck off.
Because he let Isis take it back, we didn't fight for no reason.
