SeaWorld doesn't do conservation in order to save wildlife. They are a for-profit company - everything they do is calculated to make more money. If they truly cared about wildlife, they would keep animals wild instead of trying to breed them. They would keep them in tanks that were proportionate to their size, or in…

First, cheating may not always destroy a family or the spouse. However, if you are a third party who doesn't know the spouse or the family in question, why would you take the chance that you could be hurting someone else? Loge's point that the "other man/woman" - who carelessly involve themselves in such a particular…

Maybe the reason that the world is going to shit is because of people who believe that no one owes anything to anyone unless explicitly promised. Why not be party to hurting someone else as long as you don't know them? Sure, it wasn't your actions directly that caused pain, but your participation in those actions…

You know, it's not "just sex." There is very little that is "just sex." Sex is a complex chemical and physical process that hasn't really been fully teased apart yet. At the very least, we know sex brings feelings of attachment and comfort in both men and women. Emotional hurt can lead to physical complaints. Who…

In the case of being "the other woman," the problem is that you are knowingly being party to and participating in causing pain for someone else. Sure, the husband could cheat with someone else and still cause pain, so it might as well be you, right? Regardless of whether or not you have ties with the wife, it's about…

I don't disagree with your sentiment - that story is pathetic - but breasts aren't just feedbags. In many other mammals, mammary glands shrink when not in use. For primates, females do not have remarkable breasts unless they are nursing. In humans, breasts play a role in sexual desire (why men find them attractive)…

Lions do eat other lions. Most species that eat meat will eat each other.

For the record, I don't know how many species "don't let nature rule them." Honestly, many species are able to make decisions that deny their "primal urges." However, I doubt that was your point. I just get annoyed when people point out how great and unique humans are without any knowledge about other species.

Um, I know you are generally disagreeing with Henri, but you're mistaken about one thing. There is no evidence that humans are the only species to understand long-term consequences. In fact, there are many studies that dispute this. As for what is natural, there are many different methods of reproducing in the animal…

Men who are in committed relationships live longer than men who cheat or men who are alone. Males of many species are in monogamous relationships, and while their real reasons may not be apparent, one of the hypotheses is "mate guarding." A man wants to make sure that he is the father of babies, so he guards his mate…

I said this to one other person, but I want to make sure you know as well:

She forgot to mention the damage meat farms are doing to the environment, as well as to human health in surrounding areas. Even human workers are at risk. As for factory farmers wanting to do what is best for their animals, that may be true, but in order to produce meat at a level that the ag-companies want it, they…

It doesn't matter if most farmers are trying to do what is right for their animals because they are bought by companies that don't care - animals are commodities, rather than a group of individuals. They overcrowd animals to maximize profit in a smaller space and don't give them toys, so tail docking is somehow…

Ah, sorry, I should have just put the screen name. Sorry about that!

Her point was that there are very few false rape accusations (as in, so few as to be statistically insignificant). When there are, it is extremely unlikely that the men will go to jail because so few rape trials result in conviction. Then, the men suffer no long term damage because of the way rape is excused by the…

Why, when accused murderers and thieves don't get anonymity? You'd have to argue that there would be threats to his safety. Women get anonymity because it means more women will come forward and because men don't face the same scrutiny with regards to sex that women do (yet). People are still likely to comment on a…

Because capitalism, I think.

Then why have you not addressed anyone who logically answered your questions?

You are woefully misinformed about asexuality. Also, teenage girls are not a threat to all relationships, just those involving men who not only find physically immature girls attractive, but are also intrigued by the lack of mental development. And who are jerks that have no self control.

Some Americans mean the African slave trade, others mean the idea of slavery in general. The reaction to racism goes both ways - a lot of white people try to compensate for generations of racism (and end up overcompensating), some black people see every action a white person does through the lens of racism. Sometimes,…
