coffee_rules Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 I see they are adding to the Initialism LGBT. Now it is LGBTQIAP+ . Where does it stop? They should all be clubbed and called non-hetero. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tibarn Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 (edited) 53 minutes ago, Moochad said: You are lacking basic understanding of the issue here on the issue. Your entire argument comes down to an absurdity, a temporary change. A temporary spike doesn't change the base levels of hormones, which are possibly totally genetic. Athletes experience a temporary increase in testosterone levels after squatting. That doesn't change their baseline levels of testosterone. Stop squatting and the hormones will return to normal. In the context of this thread you are saying along the lines of, male drinks too much soy milk he turns gay because he has too much estrogen, until he stops drinking soy milk, where he will turn normal again. Yeah, that's not how this works. A "hypothesis" that is very much in consideration among geneticists doesn't need validation because a "religious-minded" engineer finds it incompatible with his political beliefs. This is also a form of personal incredulity fallacy. You and mulo both are wasting your time. IIRC mulo once told me he was a blank slatist or something along those lines. Here you are arguing for genetic determinism as a possibility which is anathema of blank slate ideologies. There is no way for the two to see eye to eye, and the posts will get more and more repetitive. It's better you or he stops. Just my opinion though Edited September 7, 2018 by Tibarn Moochad, UrmiSinhaRay, Stradlater and 2 others 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MechEng Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 @Tibarn @Moochad Indians have this knack of being a rebel, will aggressively support anything that's unconventional because it's a cool thing to do, of course without reflecting upon how the things they support will impact the value system.

Sadly these people can't debate the matter at hand so instead have now resolved into some circlejerk about how much smarter they are than everyone else.

PBN Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Over a decade ago, sitting a classroom we were discussing how discrimination against gays was similar to slavery. Slavery was eventually abolished and within a decade since that discussion, we are seeing more rights for gays, acceptance in the media, and changes in laws that accept same sex marriage in the west and slowly trickling to other places. It was/is just a matter of time. Even in the media, tv shows, movies, we have seen a rise in showing gays,etc. Also, discriminating against gays is similar to discrimination against minorities. If you are going to discriminate against gays, then it also sets a precedent for other minorities to be discriminated as well. Same sex marriage is the next step in India.

MechEng Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 The posts above strengthen my point even further.

Proselytization is the next step in India. The posts above strengthen nothing but the fact that most 'educated' Indians who scoff at anything 'modern' and 'progressive' are actually the ones with no solid argument to back their statements and hence the tendency to obscure their arguments with random out-of-nowhere inserted technical jargons. I mean proselytization really? Do you realize most Christians out there are some of the hardcore anti Gay crusaders? How thick can someone be .

Proselytization is the next step in India. I don't agree about the Indians are followers portion of your posts, but I do find the shadow-boxing in this thread hilarious. From my experience passive-aggressive behavior is a sign of people unsure about what they are saying. This thread is getting absolutely juvenile. What's more telling is the lack of links here. I'm sure telling you and @Franco Vazquez how wrong you guys are, without supporting evidence, will convince you. Oh wait...
