    Italian writer against women choosing the bear: hating men has become fashionable

    Being forceful and talking is a way of scaring a bear off. So that statement isn't entirely accurate. "Slowly wave your arms above your head and tell the bear to back off." https://www.nps.gov/subjects/bears/safety.htm#:~:text=Do%20not%20make%20any%20loud,the%20bear%20to%20back%20off. And...

    Italian writer against women choosing the bear: hating men has become fashionable

    I did. I felt it missed the point of the question entirely. I will explain below. Is it? What about outside the woods? How many women are attacked in the woods and never report it or are unable to report it? The question isn't just about being hit on and this where I think the article...

    The Dead Count in Gaza - Revised Numbers

    Not being a military strategist, I am unsure, but it seems like it was the land invasion that won that war. I am not a fan of saying "The enemies doing it, so we are justified in doing it ourselves." That doesn't mean the Nazis shouldn't have been stopped, obviously, only that I like the...

    Italian writer against women choosing the bear: hating men has become fashionable

    I think they choose the bear to highlight that bears only attack for survival purposes and few have trauma related to being abused by bears.

    Virginia Governor Youngkin Vetoes Contraception.

    It comes down to being sexist because it relates directly to the differences between the realities between female and male reproductive roles. Females are ultimately physically responsible for reproduction and face the greatest risks and responsibilities. When politicians target reproductive...

    The Dead Count in Gaza - Revised Numbers

    Effective enough so that it was worth tens of thousands of innocent lives?

    The Dead Count in Gaza - Revised Numbers

    The bombing of Germany was ultimately not super effective. It was a land invasion that ultimately won. The bombing had to be repeated over and over again to disrupt industry and it didn't seem to have a huge impact on civilian morale. A lot of civilians died needlessly.

    The Dead Count in Gaza - Revised Numbers

    What if there is famine and aid really is being withheld? What if other sources of propaganda are influencing your thoughts on this? If you discovered famine was a real thing occurring in Gaza and Israel really was preventing aid, would that change your mind?

    The Dead Count in Gaza - Revised Numbers

    Considering that campaign ended with the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and the campaign was intentionally killing civilians to demoralize and disrupt industry, I would say yes, this was wrong. "Shouldn't" is more complicated; were there other options to disrupt the industry feeding the war...

    Trump a Fan of Hannibal Lecter

    "Hannibal Lector came to me, big man, strong man. Tears streaming down his face. Told me he couldn't flush the evidence down toilets anymore."

    The Dead Count in Gaza - Revised Numbers

    I am directing it against any country killing innocent people. This is especially when one country has a huge military advantage over the other. This is a human reaction. Arguably more naturally human than war. Is it wrong? Morality is complex, but I come back to the axiom of it is wrong to...

    The Dead Count in Gaza - Revised Numbers

    Personally, I am against the killing of civilians regardless of the side (including the US). As you stated, any children's death is unacceptable. I think a lot of the folks protesting against Israel's actions aren't pro or anti anything except people dying. That's a very human response to...

    For males only: would you rather run into a bear or into Victoria Silvstedt?

    I've encountered bears in the wild. They are far less annoying. I'll go with the bear.

    Gender reassignment/affirming surgery

    Yes, GAC. Sorry! I am not sure psychological damage is inevitable. The problem is continued harassment and stigmatizing folks who are different from the norm. The damage likely would come from bullying. Exploration of identity is a normal feature of childhood. Medicine and psychology...

    Senator Tim Scott refuses to answer whether he will accept 2024 election results

    The evidence is in the anti-Trump crowd's favor.
