You are one weird person, I do say. And I'm finding it a waste of my time engaging with you!

How the fuq can it possibly be a good thing that some stupid majority in a maga Scotus took away woman's right that women already had and now have to fight for?

What is unintentionally good about the stupid decision of the maga scotus is that their intention, which was to limit my body my choice, has awakened women so they don't just rely on Roe v Wade, but can now fight to have a my body my choice amendment enshrined in the constitution instead of having to rely on a weak Roe v Wade.

I mean, just see how so enshrined and untouchable the Gun Amendment is! I want there to be an untouchable My Body My Choice amendment enshrined in the constitution too, and the stupid maga scotus have awakened that dragon, to my delight.

Vote Blue, dude!

The problem with the left and Muslims is that despite being a minority in many cases, they want to impose their weird choices on the whole population
A few men pretend to be women and they want me jailed for calling them men. They want old buildings redesigned to have their unisex toilets.
Women who can't zip it up want abortion in the constitution. preferably govt funded.
The left grievances are just laughable.
Did a judge rule this week that a child in the womb is not part of the woman's body?

Old friend, I think it is extremist to say one should not trust anyone who sleeps outside marriage. You should reflect that mankind is not naturally monogamous and it is indeed an irony that as an atheist you dont see that monogamy is a contraption of control foisted by religion.
I acknowledge and appreciate your friendship here on nairaland and your intellectual depths at analysing complex social issues.

I see my self as a humanist, my views are often non personal and look at how issues affect the wider society and humanity as a whole. As you are already aware, I am an evolutionist, a staunch believer in the doctrine of "survival of the fittest". Survival just doesn't mean individual survival but also includes family, clan, racial and species survival. Fittest also doesn't necessarily means strongest or fastest, that attributes (both physical and others elements) that best fits the environment.
I can now explain my "extremist" views on fidelity in marriage. Marriage is not necessarily a religious contraption, but a social construct (I would say evolutionary behaviour) for social order and progress. Ancient Rome that promoted monogamy did not do it for religious reasons but for social order (political and economic reasons). Even Judaism (or rather Abrahamism) which is the father of Christianism promoted polygamy. It was when Rome took over the Christian religion that monogamy was indoctrinated.

Let me Further explain why I feel polygamy is not desirable at this stage of our evolutionary development. In ancient times when the human population was small (100 million or less) and lived in isolated settlement. The economy was first Hunter gatherer and later agrarian. Polygamy was the most efficient method of family and thus societal survival. A man required multiple wives and children (or large family members) for successful hunts or to work the land for successful agriculture. Then a man's wealth was measured by the number of wives and children, and then agricultural produce. Furthermore, life expectancy was very short, with men being even shorter due to war, disease, hunting and extraneous work. So churning out children in numbers was needed to compensate for the high mortality rate.

Today, social dynamics have radically changed. The world population is 8 billion. The economy is now industrial and even digital. Families live in apartment building or at best single plot houses. Now, how will polygamy work in such a situation. Putting up 2 or more families under the same roof often end in disaster. Putting then under separate roofs also has its economic and psychological implications particularly on the children. In todays world polygamy is detrimental to building a strong, peaceful and prosperous society.




This is not to say one supports those sex addicts who are depraved rapists such as the racist, rapist, fraudster, convicted felon and pathological liar, Donald Trump.

As an aside what do you make of polygamy or polyandry?

Now having said the above, I am not particularly anti-polygamy. What I am against is lying and cheating. If my wife or girlfriend is not meeting my needs, I will let her know. If she insists on being stubborn and still fail to meet my needs, I will make her known that I will find solace elsewhere. I will never hide or lie. The only reason I will still stay in the marriage and not divorce is because of the children. But once the children are of independent age, I am gone.

And then he went and took a thumbs up photo with his shiteaters grin at the grave site. What are you thumbing up at a gravesite. When you think this human trash receptacle can't get any lower, he does.

Marriage is not necessarily a religious contraption, but a social construct (I would say evolutionary behaviour) for social order and progress. Ancient Rome that promoted monogamy did not do it for religious reasons but for social order (political and economic reasons).

I would argue that marriage is just our own way describing the phenomenon where two individuals decide to become life-long mating partners. There are numerous organisms in the animal kingdom, even lower animals, that form life-long bonds.

I don't agree that polygamy was the norm. We've been monogamous for a very long time. It's when the concept of monetary value developed that some men (those who attained high social status) decided they deserved more than what was offered by status quo. A better building, better food, better women or men.

Like Jesus said, to alter his wordings a bit: God created one man and one woman, not one man and multiple women.

@Deepsight.

There are arguments that male produces millions of sperm, therefore, it implies that a man is programmed to have multiple partners. In reality, human reproduction is greatly influenced by the laws probability.

Out of those millions of sperm cells, most of them have faulty DNA. And shouldn't smell a womb, let alone fertilize an ovary.

Sperm cells also have short life span of 74 days.

It makes sense that the testes needs to be working on the clock to generate as many sperm cells as possible.

Most men in all societies had one wife or spouse. I wouldn't trust anyone who sleeps outside of their marriage, too.. In olden days, that person would have faced serious consequences. grin grin

Why continue this. It's not what you have been saying all along. This is the specific part I told you I had issue with that you didn't include in this iteration of your remarks. The Supreme Court did in fact say the constitution doesn't grant you the right of control over your body, and so they have allowed each state to decide what control you do have over your body.

This is not what I understood the Supreme Court to have said! The Supreme Court has not even decided what control I have over my body, and have not endorsed my body no choice, yet.

What the Supreme Court said was each state must decide if I have the freedom to control my body or not. And since We The People is the state, they've actually said I should decide. And see us registering in droves to go decide come November.

He was president remember..Did the sky fall?
It's the deep state that flatly went out to sabotage his presidency. Every thing he said was twisted to make him look bad. His wife who is quite a stunner never graced the covers of those fashion magazines. His walking and standing styles were criticized the whole day.
Those who hamstrung him have a lot to hide, they have committed crimes and they control the media. And your mind too. They lie day in day out knowing there are enough gullible fools to believe them.
Before he became a president they were swooning all over him, calling him the epitome of the American dream.

At this point I think you would be more accurate to think I am purposefully trolling you for misconflating my points, but we'll see in due time.

Under the very unfortunate circumstances the very corrupt maga majority supreme court has created, my answer is yes. And the intrinsic contradiction is not missed.

Imagine the majority decide my body their choice, and minority I insists, which I can, on having my choice. The worse they can do is arrest me and jail me, but can you not see how stupid and absurd they'd be when their jails are full of my choice women?

Some women might even intentionally get pregnant, and that's apart from the trolls who wouldn't be pregnant, and announce their intended my choice on twitter and facebook just in protest.

The Supreme Court has created a ridiculous situation that only ignorant magas can be pleased about, and I'm glad because, as usual, they are doing what would make them unelectable for many cycles going forward, as shown by your man outrage at their stupidity. And imagine the outrage of the uterus owners. The Lincoln youtube we are discussing says something like a 175% increase in women voters. Or is it that you think the majority of women are going to vote for my body pig's choice, pigs being what the stupid men who want control over a woman's uterus are?

Note that in some countries same sex is illegal. This proposed majority control of my uterus is as stupid and absurd as trying to police a same sex bedroom. And the thought of uterus control officer basilico on state borders just makes me laugh sarcastically in derision.

This is an entire lie. First off, there’s policy to be followed when visiting Arlington, that was violated.
Trump was there for a wreath laying at the TOMB OF THE UNKNOWN soldier. The soldier is unknown therefore his family is also unknown, so how did they express that they wanted Trump there?
He then took a tacky thumbs up photo in front of one of the graves of those who died in Afghanistan, somwthing that violates the cemetery policy regarding politics. Trump’s aide pushed an employee resulting in an incident report being filed and Family members complained about the incident because it was rude and disruptive. Who wants someone taking a thumbs up photo in front of their loved one’s grave. FYIArlington is a National Cemetery and their policies supersede the wishes of the families of those buried there so either way, he was wrong.
