I'm going to guess very drunk people.

But not very many straight guys spend every waking moment pursuing sex with random ladies.

Your logic breaks down at the assumption that you can bully people into health.

For me, it's not just that they felt the need to take selfies at a funeral, though. It's that they apparently can't see a bathroom mirror without taking a picture of themselves in it. How many fucking photos must be clogging up their lives?

Good points. I think that a lot of people like to be able to point at the racism of other people because it makes them feel better about themselves and costs them nothing. How about some actual reforms to help the lives of first nations peoples?

Curious: did you learn about ancient Egypt or modern Egypt?

I think wearing an outfit from another culture, like a salwar kameez or whatever would be ok (as long as it was pointed out that this is only one of many outfits that people from that country may choose to wear) but not dressing up as 'an Indian' or 'a Mexican' or 'a French person'. That sort of puts 'Mexican' on the

Of course it's not. I was using an analogy. You were saying that a group of people wouldn't complain about being mocked for a physical trait if they were truly happy with themselves. I pondered whether, by the same logic, you would argue that a group of people who didn't like being mocked for a sexual orientation

And if people were really ok with being gay they wouldn't get all het up about what that Chick-Fil-A dude said, right?

Would you have a go at someone who referred to something as 'crazy' or would you accept that it's entered the vernacular and no longer refers to someone who is mentally ill, just as 'idiot' no longer refers to someone who is mentally retarded? Because in the UK 'mental' means much the same as 'crazy' in the USA.

Eh, some religions have some pretty nasty stuff built into them. Some relgious people get by by ignoring the misogyny/homophobia and so on, but religion isn't as morally neutral as a brick when religious texts say stuff about women being subservient to man, or discussing approvingly how God drowned most of the

Or because he's a comedian and it's a fairly easy target?

I am so sorry that happened to you and your baby.

I know at least 4 women who have given birth in the last few years who would have died (or had dead babies) before the EMTs arrived.

The top comment refers to her anti-vax stance. It's colouring a lot of people's mockery. You also must know that she wrote this thing for attention and page-views and is most likely getting what she wants out of it. If we all looked at it and shrugged and said 'you do you' then she'd likely be disappointed.

If something goes terribly, terribly wrong you could be dead before you get there.

What's worse, vitriolic comments or medical decisions that have led to an upswing in babies' deaths from whooping cough?

This woman is an anti-vaxxer. She's making her child a disease vector and putting imumno-compromised people (and him, of course) at risk of completely preventable diseases.

I know plenty who wouldn't, and the pervasive belief that every single woman wants to have sex with athletes is part of the problem.

If a person is sober enough to decide to have sex then they are not too drunk to consent to sex and it is not rape.
