    So? My husband owns several brown shirts, a sweatshirt hoodie, winter coat, cargo shorts. My sons, too. Brown is not homo color. My father in law, a Mexican native, now American citizen, wears pink quite well. Real men wear pink. My sons are willing to wear something pink in October for Breast Awareness.

    Has any one seen the cartoon of Bugs Bunny outtakes? Or maybe, Toy Story outtakes? There are no such things. Cartoons and comics are drawings. Planned out months in advance. So, if you find something that reflects your life then the comic becomes personal. Reality comics, go figure.

    They actually refer themselves to being homos. Gays generally refer to men who are homos while homos refer to both genders.

    It is not 100 boys : 1 girl in China. I could tell you what it is easily enough, but it’s best for you to do some research and find out how to find real facts yourself. Clue: You’re roughly 100 times wrong. Of course, you may have just made a typo.

    “You can dredge up whatever statistics you like” – as opposed to what, making them up the way you did? If you have to resort to lying and fabrications to support your viewpoint, then it can’t be too valid. Sorry if that idea’s too “liberal” for you.

    And yes, you have the right to voice whatever opinion you want, but that doesn’t make you right, and it doesn’t pass for a papal bull, either. People have already called you on positions and statements that you can’t support, so your only comeback is belligerance. BTW, there is no “rest of us” – you’re speaking for yourself alone, unless you somehow think you’re a royal “we”.

    Of course, since your mind is already made up, why should anyone bother confusing you with facts?

    “Is that hand to forehead thing how people prevent themselves from being penetrated by different opinions? I just notice liberals do it an awful lot.”

    If by “liberals” you mean anyone with an IQ above that of room temparture, who actually has some actual knowledge of economics, education and global events and has to listen to what passes for argument from you, then yeah, I bet you do get the facepalm a lot.

    Allow me to wager that you’re also a “headdesk” carrier.

    “@Chuck373

    That’s right. Our public schools are substituting social engineering for education."

    Ever watched MST3K? Ever seen those great “training films” from the 1950’s, instructing kids on everything from how to shower, appropriate conduct on a date, how to interact with your family, the dangers of marrying too young, and career options for women outside the home? Betcha didn’t realize those were created during the Eisenhower administration to be shown IN SCHOOL so that the (gasp) dreadful concept of “social engineering” could foster good grooming and socialization among America’s postwar youth. And no, they weren’t shown during algebra class either. School has always been the great preparatory and training ground for life, and life is more than being able to do trigonometry. That’s also why it offers sports, drama, art, student government and other outlets to students.

    You really might want to do some outside reading and broaden your outlook – that knee-jerk reaction’s gotta be killing you.

    Not to mention the foot in mouth thing.

    Of course it’s just a vehicle. Some people will always see indoctrination or malign intent or creeping socialism or some damn thing in whatever gets shown because they see it everywhere. That’s their agenda. As far as I’m concerned, the first one who screams “liberal” or “conservative” loses.

    Ottodesu did not dredge any stats, you did. Read his post again. If you’re going to quote stats, get them right. As Ottodesu said, you’re about 100 times wrong. Ladyhawk had the courtesy to correct you, as Ottodesu was politely doing.

    No more so than, say, any woman who’s unfortunate enough to have attracted a stalker. It’s like most forms of stalking/intimidation/subjugation, rape and erotomania – the subject’s done nothing more than be a type that appeals, or be there in the wrong place or wrong time- the stalker, rapist or troll is the one with the mental issues.

    Pokerfaced, there’s a huge difference between a governemnt enforced eugenics program and having a school curriculum that includes a “family life” class. The fact that you would lump both of them together under the term “social engineering” and not see the immense gap between the two just illustrates you lack of a sense of proportion about the topic.

    And trying to pass off spurious statistics as future facts to support your position really is beyond reaching – and it’s still not accurate! Do some reading, for God’s sake. The Chinese have already realized there’s a massive problem with enforcing a one-child policy in a society that overvalues males when those boys hit 18 TEN YEARS AGO and the rash of kidnapping young women for brides – even reaching into Vietnam – began. So no one’s gonna be “holding that thought”.

    I think Gunth’s nervousness is cute. Just sayin’. I mean, the kid’s in high school, and has never had a girl actually interested in him before — cut him some slack! Seriously. If I’d dated in high school, I would have been interested in Gunth. (Although I’m not gonna lie — Quill is awesome in his own way. But they’re both really sweet, considerate guys, and that’s what counts.)
