Progressivism is just going forward instead of retreating into the past, silly-nilly. If you’d rather stick with Pong and Basic and Commodore 64; feel free to do so. And remember, that’s only a few decades into the past. Some conservatives want to go back to their imaginary 50’s, with large cars, large skirts, no computer games and no metal rock.
It’s conservatism that is hostile to the truth. America was never great for everyone.
Have you studied a bit too much, but still not enough, Greek, dearie? Telos and logos and gnon, and other silliness.
God created Satan. God created Good and Evil.
Whut? People whose jobs can be terminated can’t be relied on? EVERY job can be terminated, numbskull! Every job IS terminated eventually. If not sooner, then with the employee’s death.
Anonymous anecdote is the LEAST reliable source, dolt.
Which pill is which again? I take three white and one terracotta every morning…
White straight men in Western countries are the most privileged people on Earth. That doesn’t mean that your lives are automatically Fine and Dandy. It means that they would be EVEN HARDER than they are now, if you had ALSO been born a woman, or a person of color, or disabled, or gay/lesbian, or of one of the many ethnicities that don’t have a state of their own (like Palestinians, Roma, Rohingyas or Kurds).
No, women’s sexuality can’t be under male authority, any more than men’s sexuality can be under female authority. Each person has to decide for themselves if, when, how, and with whom to have sex. Female consent is just as morally relevant as male consent. Without consent it’s not sex, it’s RAPE. Women really, REALLY want to give consent before sex.
Strange behavior with regards to rape and sexual harassment? We are not the strange ones, asshole, the justice system is! Most rapes go unreported, as many women feel that a court procedure would be almost like a second rape. Of the reported rapes and sexual assaults, only 6 percent of the rapists ever see the inside of a jail cell. We also know that it’s OUR reputation on the line, even though WE are the victims. WE are asked how we were dressed, how often we have sex, etc., while rapists can get away with “I didn’t know she didn’t want to, I thought we were doing Rough Sex” (when a woman screamed so much, she bruised her throat).
If women report a rape against a handsome white “high status” male, she will not be believed, she will be accused of only wanting attention, or wanting to destroy his life. “Why would HE rape someone, HE is so handsome!”. As if rape had to do with sex, rather than power…
Men are sometimes raped too, ya know, and they have the same right to be listened to and believed. But our Rape Culture is just guffawing, saying “Haw, haw, he got sex! Why is he complaining?”.
The criterion is CONSENT, regardless of gender, dolt.
Only about 4 percent of rape reports are false. We women hate those false reporters even more than men do, as they make it even harder for us to be believed.
My father would be horrified if his consent weighed more than his daughters’ consent. We were always our own persons to him, and he is just as much our dad after our weddings, as before.
Good men are horrified by the thought of violating anyone’s consent. Only men who think THEIR rights to women’s bodies outweigh women’s rights to their OWN bodies, are endangered, and those are not good, in any way, shape or form.
Is there a Green Pill? I like green…
