I'm astonished you can search but don't know how to multi-quote.

If he has never used the word, then it’s true that he never had to look up how to spell it. 😀

To be charitable to ye old geezer, he may be using the dark skin which doesn't allow MQ.

And if I have

Why do you find that astonishing?

The top reasons we shamed promiscuity were so the father knew if the offspring were his, so the children had a stable two parent family, and diseases. I have no idea how you got this lost

Women are the ones making these decisions. They are and always have been discriminating. The gate keepers. Taliban? Lol

As it relates to the abortion debate. Almost all abortion is being used as birth control. Repeating my self and going in to greater detail in hopes you don't getting lost is something I've lost interest in

It’s isn’t that young women in highly religious patriarchal societies have decided they have to forgo premarital sex.

omfg, the 1800's sent a telegram, they want their "values" back.

In general, Christian boomers don't like dark skins.

Does this include the ones who have dark skin?

Well, as you say, the traditional role of woman is they get to make these decisions about who fathers their children. To be discriminating gatekeepers. So it's not our place to say when woman can and cannot have abortions.

Conservatives seem to love policing others' sex lives. Why is that, wanhole?

Pointing out that abortion is being used as birth control only makes a difference in cases where the fetus has any moral value. The vast majority of abortions occur before fetuses even have rudimentary feelings. Not sure where we are finding the moral value in a non-sentient creature. It’s not an individual at that point and never has been, so it’s still only a potential life.

Once they are sentient then I can see your point. But by then also I don’t know if most are using abortion for that, let alone 95%.

That's what I said, so this:--

...appears to be a stupid rejoinder by someone not paying attention.

You did say that before. And I said 'And what's wrong with that exactly?' -- since birth control is a social good -- and your failure to answer is your problem.

Make witch burning great again!

Hi everyone. I have a question for you.

1) Would it be more strange if a guy took a girl out, wined and dined her and hoped that at the end of the night they would be having sex.

or

2) A guy took a girl out, wined and dined her and didn't hope at the end of the night they would be having sex?

How much wine?

Have you ever had sex with a girl?

Depends on when he last painted his walls.

irrelevant.

Have you ever thought of hanging out with a chick because you enjoy her company, or is busting a nut the only incentive?

I disagree with all of this.

1) The reason isn't always obvious. My last two bans were clearly not obvious. If a person volunteers to do a job they should be expected to do the job. The individual with the ban deserves an explanation. One word doesn't cut it. Also, bans shouldn't just be punitive, they should also be educational. Assuming a temp-ban I would think the mod would want to make it clear what specific rules were broken. I would love to know so I don't break that rule again. I don't think it would be unreasonable to say "You have been banned for xxxx based off this particular post" then point out specifically what about the post was ban worthy. This would also make a mod think twice about banning a person just because he/she doesn't like them or because the mod is simply in a bad mood. They should be held accountable for their decisions.

2) In my case if I was afforded the opportunity to explain myself I think my second ban probably would have been over turned. I still don't have specifics of my first ban other than just the one word. I feel that if the posters are held to a certain degree of expectations regarding following the rules so too should the mods. Also, there is a lot of inconsistency between mod's on this sight. Most are admittedly hands off. This is clearly the preferred way by nearly all forum members. Then there is the one mod who is too micro managy. The problem is that most of the time people are expecting to be able to say this or that but some of the time this mod comes in and punitively bans the poster.

Have you ever thought you can do both?

You're the dude who said something like, "I've got $100 in drinks invested in this chick; hopefully she pays out soon" and paints his walls before going out on a date, right? Gtfo, lmao.
