I like how he put that.
(It's also funny how it kind of sounds like an optimistic version of something Lovecraft would've said. )
How did therapy go?
Well, maybe not the laughing bit in this case. The problem is that it's seen as such a reasonable thing to ask of someone, when in reality it's kind of... Well, there are unfortunate implications across the board. :/
Well, yeah (hopefully... ). It never really made much sense, but that's how things often are before you really think about them. :shrug:Fortunately genitalia and gonads don't have feelings or awareness themselves.
Or else we'd be in a lot worse shape than we already are.
Part of me doubts that they'll act any differently... They're still using a lot of the more nonsensical arguments that got discounted decades ago...Indeed... At times I catch myself imagining the hypothetical storms of excrement that will go down once science figures it out, and just what people who will refuse to acknowledge it will say instead.
*Hugs* Actually, that's pretty close to what I experienced... Er, am still experiencing. Still not sure how I'd feel about having the other set. :/
*Facepalm*
*Hugs*
I want to say "yeah" - hopefully she can listen long enough to hear what's wrong with her assumptions. Even if she doesn't then, she might relent enough to if you persist over a couple more meetings (my precariously-balanced hat is off to you if you're patient enough for that).
It could mean 'something that is of the opinion that the sexes are opposite'.
I'm not too fond of how people use "insane". I've heard it used to dismiss the opinions of others far too many times.
The word itself, I'm indifferent to. It roots in some rather unfortunate cultural assumptions, but there are pretty unhealthy courses of action. :shrug:
I'd say it's more important to bond with other people and consider the meanings and implications of one's actions. I hate my parents (and no, "hate" isn't too strong a word), and I ended up being pretty empathetic anyway.Society also probably couldn't function without the necessity of bonding with our parents and being social that is necessary to fulfill our need to learn how to be humans rather than having it be an innate thing.
Also, a lot of morals actually make sense from a purely-logical standpoint (murder disrupts society, politeness can disarm arguments, etc.).
... I'm going to refrain from exploding at that statement....Why aren't they spayed and neutered?
You should probably go ahead and make the appointment today...
It's worth noting that they won't get pregnant that way - his cats are male.
