I like the idea of a full time notifier. The problem with notices is that everything is electronic these days and we get hundreds of filings and plead...
I don't agree with this. You're not immoral just because you're factually wrong. Morality is judged largely, but not entirely, upon intent. So, if you...
A question for you guys: So a lawyer here in my office missed a hearing, claiming never to have received the notice from the court. His instinct was t...
Well I can say that if asked to name another Finnish PM, or actually Finnish legislator, or actually Finnish woman, or actually Finnish person other t...
Discriminating on the basis of race is a moral wrong that results in greater harm to some races more than others. Was that so difficult to say without...
Maybe for some I guess. I work around enough people involved in politics that I have no greater expectations of them than anyone else, and they have n...
As if being the PM of Finland is such a pinnacle of success that losing that position will mean ruin. She's now an international celebrity, who will n...
I know little about drug treatments, so I guess I'd do whatever it is that I do when I'm asked to do something I don't know how to do, which is fairly...
My two cents: I think the issue here is a bit over-intellectualized. That Marin danced with her friends means nothing to me, either in terms of it pro...
Have been thinking about this, and just now got around to answering... I changed jobs, but it applies to everything. It's that feeling of hollow succe...
Well yeah, it would be a bit prying to ask the question, but you needn't conduct interviews to explore the question. You can just ask yourself what it...
No, that's exactly what I am saying. That it is screamingly obvious to you that she acted inappropriately doesn't have any persuasive power over my op...
I said clearly that her behavior is fine. That's what I think. I also agree with @"Benkei"'s comments that if you do believe her behavior is substanda...
That's a strawman. I didn't say she should get a pass because Trump is worse. I pretty clearly said her actions were fine under any standard. She seem...
The real crime is European music. It's just flashing lights and electronic beats that take place in discotheques, which is a word that hasn't been sai...
I disagree because I don't see anything negative about dancing and singing and I see no reason to take a drug test because I don't see anything negati...
I think that politicians should walk stiffly upright, always look serious so that we know that our troubles are always on their minds, wear clothes th...
I am aware of the peculiarities of Judaism, but I think that has more to do with prescriptive, legalistic definitions more than what we're talking abo...
So I've thought way too fucking much about this, and this is what I've landed on. Your comments resort to a mysticism that I'm not fully able to decip...
The issue is complex because it both demands recognition of traditional gender roles and rejects them at the same time. A classic liberal perspective ...
I get your carefully crafted example where you had an internal unexpressed feeling that revealed itself after the fact through behavior, with the beha...
I'm not going to argue the position I don't hold, but I think the general sentiment of the opposition isn't anger or a desire for physical interferenc...
What you describe as not having occurred in your particular case does happen though. That is, I realize my emotional, spiritual, recreational, occupat...
And now I question whether you're actually a fan. Something makes you a fan. Your love of the team, your undying commitment to your land, the exciteme...
Animal examples have applicability as analogies, but not as direct examples. A male goat could act (as evaluated by humans) in a female way, resulting...
I get that language is an expression of intent and not an actual tangible mental state. Language is a behavioral manifestation of belief. You tell me ...
But this presumes a common objective, which as you've presented it, is the promotion of fairness. Not a bad objective, but not a necessary one. Commun...
I didn't read what @"Michael"said that way. I read him as denying any discernable definition of gender other than generally thinking himself a man, of...
It's up to the community to use a term and from there its meaning can be derived from those seeking definitions. Community Right defines woman based u...
I get that animal sociology is less complex than human sociology, but it is accurate to relate animal behavior to their social function. I would also ...
Why can't there be sociological functions assignable to biological sex within a non-human animal? Billy goat behavior is different from nanny goat beh...
Title 9 is a well known law, arising often in the context of college athletics, which is obviously a very large US interest. For many years men domina...
Yes. For the Australian counterpart, see: https://humanrights.gov.au/our-work/legal/legislation We even have laws against murder and rape, despite the...
No doubt complaints arise from those quarters, where the objections are simply that they don't want a status quo disrupted, but an equal argument is m...
In short, because you would be eliminating CIS women from the sports marketplace. Those measurements you reference do correlate generally to biologica...
Sure, it's a broad based theory that requires some tinkering, but I'm not in agreement that the power of speech and its special status can only be tra...
No, now I see my initial assumption of the bad faith basis of your question was correct. You weren't confused, and I regret attempting to clarify. I d...
And I think that's the gist of this whole thing, which is that the West holds speech as holy, both in the right to offend and duty to protect. It's pr...
From the OP: The OP was clearly about the Muslim reaction, later focused to Shias, then some reopening it to Sunnis as well. I'm confused why you're c...
7 So you asked what I meant earlier and I didn't respond because it was clear to me you did, and this is the point I was making. Is there a duty to sp...
OK, but I was thinking you were arguing fluidity of meaning based upon usage, which I would subscribe closer to, but I guess I don't know what you mea...
So in terms of meaning being use, I rely upon what usage to know if you're a man? That you tell me you are? Is that the only public usage manifestatio...
I also deny essentialism, but I don't think that amounts to an inability to itemize characteristics of a term. That a term's meaning is derived from u...
