Baaa humbug!

Cutting holes in fences, as in trespassing to vandalize or cause havoc.

The suicide rates are going up. Even among boys so that'd the solution it seems.

When your existence makes half the people in the world uncomfortable you are kind of a dick for living.

Welders are great for jewelry making

Being retarded: you.

[catsarebadpeople@sh.itjust.works]

Wtf? Lol

[holyginz@lemmy.world]

Ok, so what's with the turpentine?

[whatyouneed@lemmy.world]

Well when they are as small as yours, it becomes really hard to hit that target with a kick.

Why are you ranking genders? Did you spend time under the impression that men were the better gender? Can you even see how fucked it is to relegate an entire gender as second class? If you bought into the idea that women were somehow less than you by mere virtue of being women, can you not see how they might bear some justified disdain for you specifically?

No, I don't see men as a "lesser" gender, I don't see women as "lesser", either. They are simply different ways of experiencing the world, and the near coin flip odds of what the doctor will say when they check your genitals for the first time isn't gonna be the way that I determine who are worthwhile people.

There's more to masculinity and manhood than fitting the awful mold that the hegemonic powers have set out for us. If you stop trying to "win at gender", or whathaveyou, maybe you can become the sort of man that doesn't take gender as a zero-sum game

[childeharold@lemm.ee]

exactly. women on the other hand have higher obesity rates than men, too. so they're much bigger targets. endless design flaws, really.

Why does that matter? If the fetus cannot survive outside the womb due to genetic defects, why would I care about that when I could care about the health of the mother?

[flax_vert@feddit.uk]

The fundamental core issue is: do we count the foetus as a life? If so, there's no such thing as a "safe abortion"

[gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

We do not, simple as, because it's not

That wouldn't magically change the death rate, though, which was my point, don't change the subject. If you're not smart enough to understand basic math I'm not sure we should even pretend to respect your opinions on things more complicated than that, like basic science

[tetris11@lemmy.ml]

I was genuinely confused there, since I thought it was something that only conservatives used. Thanks for this

[harsh3466@lemmy.ml]

Burning shit down to the ground. There have been many attacks on abortion clinics that included attempts and/or successful burning.

[flax_vert@feddit.uk]

Science points to a foetus being a life- whether or not we value that life is a philosophical, moral and ethical issue. Biological, Physical and Chemical science isn't the answer to everything.

[flax_vert@feddit.uk]

If you are absolutely certain the foetus cannot survive, and carrying it to term will give the mother a high probability of dying after giving birth due to physical complications, then an abortion is a valid medical procedure. However, this accounts for less than one percent of abortions, so unless we are arguing against that, it's not a valid talking point.

[holyginz@lemmy.world]

Gotcha. Didn't know that's what it was used for.

[gallopingsnail@lemmy.sdf.org]

Why don't you give us proper grammar?
