A fall from a height (or rather, the sudden stop at the end) can mess up your internal organs - they can burst open with the very sudden deceleration. 

Exactly what “Grappling from height” means is a mystery to me - sounds like gibberish. Initially I thought they meant rappelling - (which is something you do from height) - but reading the links it seems they did actually mean grappling - which just sounds dumb.

“At a July news conference, Gage showed reporters MRI scans revealing that Tipping had staples in his head due to the injuries he sustained leading up to his death. Gage also cited sworn declarations from a nurse and a paramedic and alleged that Tipping had suffered spinal cord injuries, a collapsed lung, broken ribs,…

“Tipping was giving a demonstration that involved grappling from a high height with another officer, both fell to the ground”

Something being “completely unnatural biologically speaking” isn’t a particularly strong argument against it. So are books, cooked food and antibiotics. Also in many cultures, marriage is literally a “sacred institution” - as it’s heavily linked to religious belief.

“prevention of conception”... so... not having sex is now illegal?

Because the US is a litigious society and a waiver is proof that the patient has been informed of the risks and accepts them.  Look at the amounts of money that have been awarded in previous medical malpractice cases and think about why a drug company and/or doctor might want to avoid such things.

I think if you find yourself spending significant amounts of your day speculating about the sexuality/romantic life of a pop-star you’ve never actually met, then you probably need to take several steps back and take a long hard look at how you’ve ended up where you are.

The internet is the perfect echo-chamber. No matter what opinion you have any *any* subject, you will be able to find other likeminded people who share your thoughts and will amplify them.

Yeah - this whole *long* article, and the “community” it’s about is deeply deeply creepy.
