Lust is just part of life. How you handle that emotion and how you act on it are like every single other emotion we have. Just like anger being natural doesn't excuse assaulting someone, lust being natural doesn't either. Nor is obsessing over lust or anger healthy for someone.
I think the...
Because those aren't the numbers at all?
And because there are absolutely organizations that address these issues?
Because when a drunk or recklass driver kills someone we blame the drunk driver not the victim? Pick your answer?
I mean if we're just going to make numbers up, I can do that...
Are you serious or being disingenous here?
To some degree or other, there was a big gap between the human caused extinction of herbal contraceptives in Rome and hormonal contraceptives where women often took a variety of often dangerous herbal concoctions that had varying levels of success...
Statistically abortions have dropped when sex education and contraceptives were available. Maternal deaths rise when abortion is banned or inaccessible though, so you tell me which cheapens life. Texas is performing it's own assessment right now.
People have always had sex, throughout...
No, you've decided that they don't know anything, against despite the fact that they've had one or more children before. It seems ridiculous that you're telling me that I'm the one making assumptions about the intelligence of women.
I'm saying your continued infantilization of women is the reason millions of them marched on Saturday.
If you don't understand fundamental facts about pregnancy, stop acting as if women know even less than you.
Abortions are responsible. And you almost never know you're pregnant until past five weeks. You generally have to miss a period. Pregnancy is counted from the beginning of the previous cycle. Women's cycles average 28 days but this is far from universal. Finding out by five weeks that you're...
So, you think the women, with children already, don't know that?
And you think that despite the fact that multiple people have sex, only one person is responsible for the baby.
Personally a woman who decides that having a baby isn't a good idea for her right then, and chooses to have an...
Most women who have abortions have a child at home. They're being responsible, they're aware of their bodies and they have many MANY reasons for why they end up with an unwanted pregnancy. Why's the blame and responsibility all on her anyway?
Defunding Planned Parenthood isn't doable under current law. You can't just not pay a Medicaid provider who provides Medicaid services because you don't like their name or other things they do. This happens repeatedly. A new law would be challenged in court, and overturned.
And Shad, if you...
I support polyamorous marriage, as well as same-sex, non-binary, and any other form of adult, consensual (with real informed consent) relationships*.
*Please don't pull the incest argument here. Another thread, another time. Comparing LGBTQ people to incest is offensive.
I'm not aware of a federal law and I'd need a citation on any sort of new state law. I have no clue.
The biggest caveats with bdsm and law that I'm aware of are that leaving marks can be used as evidence of abuse or assault and no contract will protect someone who continues past someone's No...
