BOOBS
probably because he’s willing to still take the trip even though his life seemingly went to the gutter.
Also he seems considerate enough to let the passenger know, and if it WAS his fault he seems understanding of it
he said that churches are taxed and regulated and whatnot, as prostitution should be too.
Maybe saying “same as belief” wasn’t good, but the rest of the comment makes it clear they’re talking about churches. Not to mention the demonisation of prostitution that comes from those churches, so i find it relevant.
Or maybe there’s other parallels you can draw between belief and prostitution, like being roped into one against your will, or maybe it being “the only option”, or being the only thing some desperate people look to for help, etc.
Well, belief used in the sense of how most “churches” use belief, as a way to indoctrinate, kind of like the modern church.
You can draw many dots and see it can be relevant to the discussion as a comparison, but it’s easier to offload the mental work to others, no?
how do you know someone is an edgelord atheist?
why, the same with defensive religious people. They’ll see a criticism on churches and they will take it as a personal attack
apparently no one i know can sense the chemical/marker(?) taste in artificial cherry flavouring like dr. pepper or cherry coke/pepsi
i seriously don’t know how anyone can get past that taste, so i figure people either enjoy it, or don’t notice it
The health consequences, as I said, is something we can deal with as we figure out safer methods for puberty blocking if that turns out to be the case.
I’d rather take puberty blockers being unsafe, find out better ways to deal with this problem later on, and deal with the health problems of existing patients over the alternative.
The alternative is having no patients to treat from puberty blocker issues, because the dysphoria got to them.
You could make the case for any medicine we use in mental healthcare: we don’t understand the risks and longterm effects, but it usually ends up that “adverse health effects way down the line” is preferable to “preventable suicide”.
People spout this same bullshit to be anti vaccines, anti fluorine in water, anti everything they don’t fully understand.
NOTHING. And I mean NOTHING in medicine is ever going to be 100% safe or won’t have side effects or always be understood.
But if you think banning life-saving medicine is better because “what if these people suffer from health issues later” idk what to say.
it’s clearly justifiable to have children grow up and kill themselves due to gender dysphoria and irreversible body changes instead of giving them the choice to delay the puberty, with an onset of manageable effects, you’re right!
your own wiki page reads all about how the cass report is questionable btw, from critics to research to everything. not just a “minority of experts”.
the cass review is famously idiotic by now. also mentioning “big pharma” lol.
i will trust any expert that does research and makes sure their research is of quality. Maybe you should listen to your own advice and listen to the experts (actual ones) you disagree with
