+1,236 If you don't like gay marriage, don't get one. If you don't like drugs, don't do them. If you don't like pre-marital sex, don't have it. You can do whatever you want with yourself, but don't tell me what I can and can't do with MY life. As long as I'm not harming you what I do is none of your business. And NO hearing curse words and seeing a homosexual couple together will NOT hurt you. amirite?

while seeing a homosexual couple won't hurt anybody, we should not have to hear profanity whenever we are in public. It is crude, and unnecessary.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

but still a freedom. i don't care if what i say offends someone. if it really ruins your whole day to hear profanity, i suggest you learn to ignore it. the rest of the world doesn't have to shut up because you want to not hear something, if you don't want to hear it cover YOUR ears not OUR mouths.

I think you're kind of right. Like, I get really anoyed when I'm at a school event and there's a bunch of teenagers standing around shouting out curse words. I also think you can refrain from cursing when there's younger kids around. No reason to teach them that kind of stuff.

I agree with most of this except for the part about cursing. You can curse at home or in any private place, but if you are in public and a small kid hears you curse, they will most likely repeat what you said, which would not make the parents very happy.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

then the parents should teach their kids not to say it. i can say anything in the world and it would make at least one parent unhappy that their child heard it, if they don't want their child to say it they should stop them through good parenting and teaching but censorship of free speech is not the way.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Wouldnt it make life a lot easier if you would just use appropriate words? Like it what said above, crap and shit are the same meaning...and so is "fuck" and "intercourse"..so why not just use the nice version of those words in public?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

because the point is i don't have to change anything to make life easier for anyone, if you want things a certain way you'll have to live without being around people who make them the way you don't want, but you can't stop someone from saying something and you never should no matter what it is.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

That is a little bit selfish I agree with the homosexual marriage part and the pre marital sex but drugs are dangerous and it isn't just forcing your ideas on someone like the others are. And the cursing well its just rude and not respected in public but I don't really care if anyone does that.

Do what you want in the privacy of your own home, but BEHAVE in public- we are supposed to be a civilized society, and parents are SUPPOSED to be able to raise their children as WE see fit, not according to YOUR morals. Frankly, I don't care of you're gay OR straight, I don't want to watch...

I disagree with the drugs portion. Sadly, most drugs, especially "hard" drugs like cocaine and heroine are smuggled in from wartorn areas. All the violence in Mexico? That's all over drugs. Anyone remember Colombia, 1992? Pablo Escobar killed thousands of people to cling to his cocaine cartel, and the young people of America funded his war in Colombia. Do your homegrown stuff, but don't fund the killing of innocents for your cheap high. It's not harmless. Not for you, not for them.

drug use should be regulated, just like alcohol. you shouldn't be allowed around people or machinery on certain drugs, but if you want to fuck up your body and your life that's none of anyone's business but your own. not even your loved ones should be able to make those decision.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

And yet the impact of you fucking up your body or your life will still have a negative impact on society. When you're too wasted to clean up your dirty syringes it's the public that has to clear the waste or risk becoming infected from contaminated blood. When your mind is so disconnected from reality and your body is shutting down from overuse of alcohol or drugs it's society that has to support you, either having to personally look after you in a home or divert additional taxes to pay for said home. It is true that you may have certain rights in regards to the way you live your life, but then so does everybody else. If you have a right to free speech then another person has the right to be free from hateful or offensive comments. To you the word a word may mean one thing, but to society it may have a completely different and offensive meaning. Actions have repercussions. You should think about this when exercising your rights to freedom.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I'm not on drugs, and if you'd read i said lots of times in the comments drugs should be regulated so that you don't harm others while ruining your own life. society isn't always right, that's why we have things like the holocaust and religion wars and genocides, because everyone is following societies views instead of thinking it through and choosing their own they just lean on the majority. oh and you may have the right to be free, but not to take away others freedom, you could say you have the right to be "free from seeing billboards". you do, but you'll have to spend a lot of time with your eyes closed.

I agree with all of this but the drugs part. As people have said above... drugs don't just hurt the user. And to everyone else, OP isn't insinuating that you should cuss loudly and scream the worst of four-letter-words out in public, but people don't need to get all pissy about it when you do slip and say something. As long as you're not screaming it at the top of your lungs, then you should be able to curse. They're just words.

AGREED ONE HUNDRED PERCENT. If you do drugs, and get into a car, you could kill someone.

The difference is, if you go from one person to the next, you're spreading STDs to all of those people. And I don't get the "lesbian intercourse" thing either, but schools don't always make sense. I've done my research. It's all in black-and-white.

I agree...but it can be others business, just so you know. If you want to have pre-marital sex: Think about the consequences. yes, it does effect other people. What happens if you get pregnant? that could effect many lives. The baby, your family, friends... If you want to to drugs: Well, this is pretty obvious. That could effect any random stranger. If you drive high, or smoke-people breathe in that air. So dont be selfish, dont do drugs.

thats what birthcontroll and condoms are for. just because someone is married doesnt make them a responsible parent or finacially fit either.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

birth control and condoms dont always work, smarty. Theres a higher chance that when you are married, you are a responsible parent and are financially fit. You also have a partner to help you raise the child. Im not saying thats the case 100% of the time-but I think its pretty clear and obvious that pre-marital sex is very discouraged everywhere...theres a reason for that. Many reasons, actually.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

yes, but i also feel there are many reasons for not waiting. i feel that i wouldn't want to spent the rest of my life with someone i hadn't slept with. lots of relationships change after intercourse, i wouldn't want to risk that with a life partner. Thats just me though. birth control and condoms are both around 99.8% effective, if you're smart about it then it is more likely nothing will happen. and if it does there are options. also 85% of teens who choose abstinence before marriage break their vows and studies show they are more likely to not use condoms. I'm not condoning kids fucking, but consenting adults are consenting adults, and can take the risks they choose.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Well, yeah. That's why teenagers do it. They don't realize how potentially harmful it is, and they think they should just be able to do whatever the heck they want, regardless of whether or not it's dangerous and life-threatening. Of course some teens are still going to go after drugs, but telling them how harmful drugs are is a wise step in keeping them from doing something so idiotic. I'm also a teenager, by the way, I'm just not the kind that gets sucked into the imbecilic things the poster mentioned.

actually i think drugs should be regulated like alcohol but with stricter regulations for harder drugs, and i still think age limits should apply, you are your parents child until you are of age and are no longer financially supported by them and until then should respect their wishes, but after that if you want to fuck up your life with drugs that's your choice. stop talking about sex like its some taboo thing that's terrible, sex is natural as water in the ocean. birth control and condoms are your best bet when it comes to sex and if you worry about stds, be smart and get yourself and your partner checked first. by the way i don't do drugs and i don't drink, but that is my choice and no one else's. i do have sex outside of marriage but I'm smart about it, my partner and i both get checked at least every six months . i do swear, it is my right. i will say what i will say, but i don't make it my intention to be heard by you.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I haven't said anything about sex being "some taboo thing that's terrible". I'm saying that pre-marital sex is dangerous ground. There is ALWAYS the chance of getting pregnant, even with condoms and birth control. And unless you are ready to physically, emotionally, and financially handle a baby, you or anyone else shouldn't be having sex before you're married. Also; drugs are dangerous. No two ways about it. They cause many, many deaths each year. I can't keep people from drinking or getting high, but I can discourage it for people I know, in order to keep them safe. I never said you or anyone else couldn't live their life the way they want to. Just that some ways are stupid and reckless, and it's important that they know that.

This is, without a doubt the greatest collection of comments I have ever read on here. I am especially interested as to how few people saw BOTH sides to the argument. STD's: A partner should always admit to having one to prevent it...protection and caution should always be present...and after having a new partner, or new partners, you should be tested. Before having sex, ask yourself if you're willing to face certain consequences with this person. If so, then be smart and GET IT ON! Gay Marriage: Who was the person who talked about marriage in lesbian sex being taught in schools? That was the weakest point I read, and it was comedic. Most of us agree that gender is not a big deal and people should do as they wish. Right now I think people are bothered by the PDA factor with those couples...but I really don't blame them. We're going through a dramatic shift as a society, and until we all see that this is OK, they have to be open about themselves and fight!

i didn't say they don't affect you, and if you'd read i said drugs need to be highly regulated and if you wanted to do harder things you would have to be monitored by professionals and not around children or other people, nor operate machinery. if someone wants to fuck up their life it's their choice. but legalizing and controlling it would do away with drug wars and reduce the risk of aids.

I agree with most of what you say: - anyone who wishes to be married should have the chance - nowadays marriage has lost much of its potency through the loss of religion in general anyway - the same goes for pre-marital sex - much of the point of virginity before marriage was to abide by religion, and religion is becoming less prominent in decision-making in much of the Western world - as for drugs, many people start on them BECAUSE they are taboo - same goes for smoking. Legalizing them as you outlined above would likely decrease the number of lives ruined, although it would be better still if they simply didn't exist (I know this is never going to happen) - finally, cuss words - they go in and out of fashion and change meaning over time. The more people use them, the less impact the have, so there's really not much point making that big a fuss. As with the drugs - people often do it BECAUSE its taboo.

Although I do beleive you have a RIGHT to curse, I don't think it's okay to be spouting curse words near grandmas and 2 year olds. It's just impolite. It's one thing if you just dropped a table on your foot or something, but theres really no need for them in polite conversation with people who may be offended.

i agree with the person who compared this post to a five year old going "you're not the boss of me!!" 1) if your fine with gay marriage, you should be fine with incest. i mean if they all love each other right? 2) drugs DO affect other people. and that idea about using government money to provide and control drugs for addicts is the most disgusting piece of extortionist idealism i've ever seen. "think about the revenue!!!" seriously? think about the opium war in china way back when 3) premarital sex is NOT just about religion. it's about protecting our children, stopping the spread of stds, and stopping the breakdown of the family unit 4) the only reason you complain about cursing is because it doesn't offend you personally. but what if i decided to make racial slurs or curse your mother? will you "just cover your ears" then? are they "just words" now? it's called being considerate. try it.

spoken like a true bully. no matter how much you want to put on a brave face and pretend people's words don't have the power to hurt you, the fact is, they can. and it's not fair for you to demand that the rest of the world grow a "thick skin" so that you don't have to be held responsible for being rude.

*laughs* I'm a bully, am I? I have never bullied a single person in my life, I've always been the victim. Yet somehow I'm the bully. That's a new concept by me. I got a thicker skin BECAUSE I've always been the victim. In such cases, you have two choices: sit and whine and moan which never gets anything done, or get tougher and just IGNORE IT.

dude. other way around. MAJORITY of people think swearing is rude, and you expect people to put up with it cuz YOU feel like it. and if you ever get mad at people for being inconsiderate (i.e. cutting in line, being loud in a theatre) then, you my friend, are the hypocrite. with a bully-like attitude.

its not others "inconsideration" that bothers me, its people worrying so much about it they set their religion based morals into laws and rules. you can say what you want to me and in an hour ill forget about it and have to re read the whole conversation to reply.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

an aversion to swear words has little to do with religion, but nice try. are you telling me it doesn't bother you when someone shoves you out of the way to get to something first? when someone talks loudly at the movies? when someone eats all the oreos before you get any? i'm talking about things like that, little inconsiderate things people do. none of these things will kill anybody, but they're just plain rude. that's all there is too it.

swearing is religion based, if it wasnt "sin" it wouldnt be noticed at all. it doesnt bug me enough to bother my time and energy with.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

i don't know about you, but when i hear someone swear for no reason, i'm not thinking "oooh, he's sinning!" i'm just thinking he needs to learn manners. and even if it is religion based, it bothers enough people that it becomes common courtesy to curb your tongue in public (and not just you, everybody). like i said, just because it doesn't offend you personally doesn't mean everyone else is wrong for being offended.

Gay marriage is the same as incest? Really? Incest babies have a higher chance of dying or being born with disabilities. Gay people can't procreate with each other, but they can adopt or use donners. Their kid would be raised in a loving family (although there are always exceptions, but it is so much harder for a gay couple to get kids I'm assuming that they would care for them right) and they would learn about acceptance early on. Family unit breaking up? A) What's wrong with that? The world is overpopulated anyway. B) What people do in their own homes is there business unless they are hurting someone. C) Who said a family unit had to be a mom, a dad, and a kid. Don't say god, cause 'his' existence is doubted by many smart people (and some dumb ones too but... The smart ones work best for this point) and if he was nice and caring and not a psychopath he would love all despite their sexual preference. As for the rest of it I agree.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

research incest sometime. you'll find some interesting things. when i said breaking down of family unit, i didn't mean reducing the number of families in general, i meant reducing the number or quality, functioning families, that raise kids who are able to reach their full potential. and, yes, this will affect society. it already has.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

and why is it you get to decide what a quality family is anyway? if people are happy who are you to judge. studies show children brought up by homosexual parents are more well rounded than the average child and more accepting of others, unlike you "family is the way we see it and should be that way for everyone" people who don't like to see differences in society and couldn't bare if your children found out not everyone id "just like you"

by Anonymous 13 years ago

that's not exactly what i'm talking about. i'm sure gay people can be very loving parents. i'm talking about all the single parents, divorcees, and adulterers out there that ruin families. if sex was more sacred, these things would be less likely to happen, families would be less likely to fall apart, and society would benefit.

sucks shit for you then

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Here's my thing: You can do drugs. It's your body, if you wanna fuck it up really bad, go right ahead. However, drugs should be regulated like alcohol and tobacco are, and there should be taxes on it. But seriously, I feel that alcohol, tobacco and all other drugs should be illegal. But then again that could cause violence worse than that which is happening in Mexico today. I don't give a shit if you curse or not (obviously). It's your life, so do what you want with it. If you don't like cursing, okay then. Cover YOUR ears, not OUR mouths. If you don't want your kids doing it (and they'll end up doing it anyway, believe me) then use your parenting skills and discipline to teach them not to do it. Gays in general are TOTALLY awesome. If they wanna get married, then they should be able to. I don't care if you're gay at all. A gay/lesbian couple is the same thing as a straight couple. Pre-marital sex is alright with me. I see nothing wrong with it

by Anonymous 13 years ago

your just dumb...we can't just COVER our ears...if we ask you nicely to not use that language around us, then they shouldn't. They should respect us. Some people don't like hearing fuck, same as some black people don't like hearing nigger. Its rude, plain and simple. and a gay marriage is nothing like a straight one..they're technically not having sex, since it takes a man and woman to do that. they're just offing each other. drugs DO affect other people, and if you don't think they do, then you really are ingnorang

by Anonymous 13 years ago

why should I respect you when you tell me not to talk a certain way? Ever heard of freedom of speech? You're pretty much telling me to do what YOU want me to. Why the fuck would I ever want to do that? Because you asked politely? Nigger is a fucked up word. I don't say it but I don't tell other people to not use it. I don't believe in doing that. And a marriage is a marriage. It's a piece of paper. When 2 people have sex, it's the same whether they're married or not. A man and a woman having sex is basically a man masturbating inside of a woman. 2 people are offing each other regardless of their sexes. And I DID NOT say that drugs didn't affect others. They do. But when 1 person uses it, it fucks up THEIR body, not someone next to you

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Is called manners! If someone askes you to please not say 'clown' because it brings uup bad memories, would you still say clown, just to be mean? And its not like i'd go tell a stranger 'hey don't say fuck, its not nice' but if i'm around you, and i'm FORCED to hear, i will ask you to please not say it. But if you only said it once or twice, then i won't, but if youre using it ALOT then yeah, i will say something. And yeah, you have freedom of speech, but as do i asking you not say one particular word. It won't ckill you not sto sauy fuck for five minutes.

*its but when gay people have 'sex' you know its not real sex, right? because sex is when a penis goes into a vagina, not a womans finger into another womans vagina. and fine, be gay, get AIDS from have sodomy, your right, its not MY life or my body, but when you say 'butt out of other peoples lives' then we shouldn't run to them when they mess up, ya know what i'm saying? like we try to ask our brother not to do drugs, but he says its not your life, its mine! and then when he needs help, he comes crying back to us to help, after he told us to butt out? nooooo

by Anonymous 13 years ago

gay people don't get aids from gay sex, they get it from having sex (idk what else to call it to fit your definition) with someone with aids. I support abstinence, but i don't try to get into other people who have sex before marriage's business. Also, your brother IS part of YOUR life, or at least he should be. His doing drugs can be harmful to you. It is perfectly fine to stop him. It is HIS fault if he gets hurt from it though, and he must accept responsibility for his actions, but i agree with another post that says that they should go to rehab, that's always the best choice for an addict.

the problem with this is that while things like drugs, premarital sex, and cursing may seem like they only effect you, they effect everyone around you. in reality, every choice you make has a kind of ripple effect and choosing to do things like that can really cause damage to people you love. Just thought I'd put that out there.
