No, we're not the cause. But we are exacerbating it.

And if you're going to argue global warming as a point and say we're no tthe cause just use "global climate change". Given how it is going to impact our kids, I like to call it catastrophic.

Then why don't you use this magical invention of Al Gore's that you love so much to crawl around the internet for a few hours here and there to get a grounding in politics and other issues before gabbing off non-sense?

Alright. That's been mentioned many times in this thread.

So how does that justify what OTHER people do to animals?

But you're completely ignoring my question. Most people, like myself, are going to keep their companion animals as if they were a person.

Now, WHY do we continue to abuse animals en masse in the industrial farms? Why do we allow this to happen? That is my question. How do you justify what those people do? Stick to the actual facts about the question I asked

Before I butt into this thread...Am I allowed to disregard my own personal experiences and just talk about feminist theory?

Also, this thread really has a lot of undertones of tran and queer issues that probably should be talked about in a respectful manner.

This just in: Ziff ---> gay rights activist and pro-feminist :O

Well, I've only sat in on a dozen or so women's studies lectures. It is somewhat discomforting for women to have men there. It is effectively a "safe space" as they are called and you know...it is something you can study by just knowing a feminist who knows her theory and reading the works of the most influential authors.

However, one of the causes of LGBTQ issues is due to the constantly self reinforcing patriarchy that has been established. Whether it is a construct that men have seeked to establish consciencously or not can be debated, but nonetheless it is a self-persisting institution that weighs down on men and women. For women it is apparent because it continues to enforce the inequality that they face in terms of economic (in Canada women make on average 70 cents to the male dollar) or in terms of political and career choices (politics and executive rooms will offten strive to elect male members). Basically, the patriarchy is a highly oppresive meta-organization that operates through masculine tendencies. However! It doesn't simply hold back women. It reinforces within men an innate fear of self-femininity and by proxy a fear of transgender, queer, and sexuality issues. Through the programming that most men face they are placed into a point where they merely accept what they see as wrong and as a challenge to their masculinity. I mean, you can see where I'm going. For the most part men don't WANT to reinforce these gender roles because it holds us back from our true potential and causes psychological harm. But, unfortunately, many men have become overly conditioned to accept the roles given to them. This causes them to have homophobic tendencies. Additionally, it causes a general insensitivity towards women's issues and femininity - it is the general insensitivity that can lead to misogyny.

I know a few boards that I'd be willing to PM you about with regards to these issues. They like to be kept private

Or better yet. Treat a woman on absolutely equal footing without any special reverence. Like a person.

As talented as many Scandinavian musicians are...there is still a lack of depth with regards to it being mature and able to deal with the world in a musical fashion. I guess Norway, Sweden, Denmark...and dare I say it...Finland took a hit with music. They got a government that is decent with dealing with the world in trade for having music that is overly escapist. Although there are some bands that emulate genres, but form them into highly unique things.

Sexual abuse, regardless of the gender of the victim, is absolutely atrocious. No one here can doubt that. If they do they really shouldn't be breathing.

The fact of it is that there are definitely different dimensions to when a male is sexually abused to a female. The treatment of the mental anguish has to be different.

Yeah. You see, I'm really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, REALLY in favour of having strong anti-pollution legislation. You know why? This is why. Forget for a moment that it is in the Caucus region of Europe. Forget that it is about the Soviet legacy. It just shows that pollution in an area that gets economically depressed (and when I've been on road trips through West Virginia and see old ex-mining towns...I can tell you that those people would get as much help as these ones) is really scary. This may not have to do with global warming, but it shows you the immediacy of the danger that pollution poses.

Remember when Cassini was launched?

It had a plutonium load on board for the reactor. NASA has been doing that for ages. But people were worried that, should the launch fail in the atmosphere, it would cause the mad contamination. Regardless of the cost, that risk is still there. I'm all for putting money into studying reactor designs that will allow us to reuse the waste time and time again. Or look into the possibility of sinking financial backing into new technology to minimize the danger.

At least that's how I've seen it at other boards. Someone would just need to update the first post and add names and stuff to it, to keep it nicely organized.



Would anyone be kind enough to volunteer to create two different threads? One where one an post that information. One where someone organizes it into at able or something so it is easier to read. Go spreadsheets.
