    Because I am human. 'Humanism' in itself means that we set the well-being of humans our first priority. You promise to consider my needs before any ideals, ideas or non-human life-forms, I promise the same to you - and in the end we help each other to achieve our goals, however diverse they might be. Non-human

    I am almost convinced that trans-humanism is the only way intelligent life in our part of the universe can prosper. 'Fixing' the need for religion, for example, is not all that difficult. This change alone can bring us much closer to the Utopian kind of future.

I suppose suppressed

    So THAT is why I never really felt like geek and would sometimes get slightly offended when a person I cared about would label me as such, lol. Thanks for making it clear to me.

    Right on. People should learn to understand what 'No' means, but at least make and effort to say this 'No' politely at first - don't just assume that everyone knows how you feel.

    Nailed it. Why would woman want to wear miniskirt if she doesn't want to be sexy? To look like her favorite character? But WHY sexy girl is her favorite character? I mean, doh. We need some common sense here. My ex GF at least had enough decency to acknowledge the fact that she LIKES certain superheroines because
