To be honest I have heard these thoughts from the same people, aka the fundamentalist Christian right wing. But that's only my personal experience.

Huh, that's pretty cool. Fruit juices are much better for you than sugary drinks like Coke or Mountain Dew. They're just kinda expensive, at least where I live.

I like both but yeah I probably spent more time on San Andreas. There are so many more areas to explore, while Vice City is kinda small. Also the fact that you can't swim in VC made me rage quit so many times.
Also dat plot twist tho.

C'mon… this can't be real, can it? I'm pretty shocked by this.

Out of all the games I've ever played, GTA San Andreas was one of the few I managed not to break, even though I sometimes messed with the cheats for fun. How someone managed to do this is astounding to me.

Ha, got me there. It has been around forever, yet equal rights for homosexuals are pretty recent, and not a thing everywhere on the planet. What I meant was, you wouldn't see a kid with two dads 50 years ago, which is why it's still mostly considered, well, not traditional. Or at least being open about it.

I thumbed it up because I dislike it when people downvote without presenting arguments (in fact I never downvote, when I disagree with someone I reply to them).
Good point. In this situation, though, you have to admit that being gay is not considered "traditional".
Tbh I always cringe when someone speaks about "traditional values" or "traditional family" because I know they're really talking about straight people with a few kids, with the mother being a jobless housewife and the father having some 9 to 5 job to feed them all. But I'm probably quite biased because I've grown tired of people telling me how to live my life for no other reason than "it's tradition". It really seems to me like "tradition" and "living your own life" don't fit together very well. But then again English isn't my native language, maybe my tradition and your tradition have a slightly different meaning/connotation.

"Well actually" *proceeds to quote from a fiction book*
I'm not trying to be mean or anything, and I know you're just relating it to this specific situation which is literally about Biblical angels and it makes perfect sense here, I just found it funny.

But why?
Don't get me wrong, I like orange juice, but there are so many other juice flavors to choose from, why get stuck on orange?

Not if your family is considered unconventional. But yes, you can definitely have both if the traditional way of life suits you. I just don't really see the point of traditions in general, they're just remnants of past that are at best useless, at worst regressive.

I'm honestly glad you're so polite about this. It's getting difficult to find a good conversation partner on the internet nowadays. Most people just get offended when they encounter different opinions.

Don't get me wrong, I think countries which implement Sharia law are disgusting, I mean it's illegal to be an atheist in Saudi Arabia, like what the fuck.
But there's equally disgusting stuff in the Bible too, so it's not as much about the religion itself as about the society. The Middle East just produces more radicalized individuals, because their legal systems implement the religion, while the West is secularized. Basically, if you read a book and society tells you "Don't take it literally though", you're less likely to be radicalized than when you read the same book and society tells you "Yup. That's the law and you better follow it to the letter." There are good Muslims and there are bad Muslims. There are good Christians and there are bad Christians. There are good Atheists and there are bad Atheists.
PS: It's spelled ideology.

Yeah so she took it in the completely wrong direction with her "toxic masculinity" bullshit BUT she actually raises an interesting point, which is that saying that all terrorists are men is technically more accurate than the republicans' fearmongering about Muslims and then refusing to call something terrorism because it was done by a non-Muslim. (Case in point, the recent Oregon stabbing.)
However, I think it is common sense to say that we shouldn't make that equivalence in either case, because it is overly generalizing and unfair to the rest of the group.

Being without a bra is uncomfortable for me, since I have DDs. But at home I wear thinner, softer bras, they are more comfy and I don't care if my nipples are visible.

@garlog I can see that now, my apologies.
@silvermyth Exactly, even if you have the money, you still need some time to take care of the newborn. By the way, when you tell them you need more time to take care of the kid, do they just fire you in the US or do they keep not paying you but guarantee your job position when you come back? Because if they do fire you, that's even more inconveniencing, you have to start your career all over. Sounds terrible.

Of course, what I was talking about is a hypothetical situation. It's not like the apocalypse will happen because of the lack of family leave.
Also, a couple of comments earlier you accused me of misquoting you, but I literally copied your statement and put it into quotations. I didn't misquote you at all. Might be a misunderstanding, but I just want to get it cleared up. I don't misquote people.

In retrospect, this whole situation would have gone a lot better if I just responded with "jerk" to your "bitch".

Yeah no it's actually a religious thing. And at first it was not like that at all, women were basically property back then (that's why women still mostly adopt their husband's names). So "I like you so much I'm gonna tell some charlatan who claims to speak to God to legally make you my property." is kinda closer.

The thing is, the companies are only looking for profit. Not an abnormal thing, a woman having a kid is not a profitable thing for the company. However, what these companies completely fail to consider is that making sure the human race continues is kinda more important than their own immediate profit. And kids = future workforce. If you tell people not to have kids, or have kids late (some of which may have genetic impairments because of being born to old people, and won't be able to work at all), you're crippling your own future workers. And of course, I have no respect for people who get kids just to get welfare. But if you and your partner have a stable, average paying job and decide to have a kid, the company should provide you with enough time and money to take care of the kid properly before you can put them to daycare. You're possibly raising their future employees, after all.

Telling someone to "please learn some facts before commenting, thank you" is rude and worth being called a bitch for? No, I think you just overreacted and now you're trying to blame me.
Respect is earned, not given. Saying what you did, being completely ignorant about something and blaming me for it, that made me lose respect. I can only imagine Eric Cartman screaming "Respect my AUTHORITAH!" now, so hey at, least you made me laugh, thank you.
