Depends on WHO’s health you are caring about! You are obviously talking about abortion. That polemic will never find a satisfactory solution because the two sides are really talking about two different things. Anti-abortionists are focused on the baby (or foetus or zygote – whatever you want to call it – – the “innocent victim” – and consider it murder. It is. And tehy are right within the confines of THEIR context. Pro-abrotionists are focused on the right of an individual to decide what happens to one’s OWN body. From this perspective, THEY are right. And the twain willnever meet beause they are really talking about two different things.
No need to say “strong”. Weak women do that too! “I was too drunk to give consent”. How’s that for an insistance of non-accountability? (But if the guy says “I was too drunk to be a gentleman” – NOBODY lets HIM off the hook!Feminism is no longer about equality and all about domination! SHHHH! )
I suspect it is a bit like kids eating dirt. It improves the body’s immunity. Being too clean and sterile is not natural and in the end can create more problems. Unless someone has a highly infectious disease like smallpox (already eradicated)… leaving the lid up is NOT as bad as you are making out. For at least three generations, people didn’t really bother with this entire toilet seat mania… and they and their children got along just fine. In many public washrooms there isn’t even a lid, and the population is burgeoning nevertheless. Now it has become one more thing to be ordered around about… either for health or ""because I’m a woman, how dare you not respect my needs" blah blah…The real problem is not for one’s health, but a psychological one.Women LOVE to feel that they are controlling everything in their environment. It reassures and makes them feel stronger. It’s like the lady who orders a salad, then gives a ten-point list of how to make it, what to use or not use, and becomes as big a headache to the serving staff and the chef as she probably is at home. It’s power-tripping… no more, no less. Why not at least admit it?
The problem with women is that they are often mothers, and get used to ordering the progeny around, expecting and getting compliance. Then they treat the men like that too. I’ve known men who are neat and tidy, and women who leave their bedrooms (if not the rest of the place) looking like a cyclone hit it. It is rare that men in such conditions will nag, but women almost invariably do.Somehow, especially nowadays, women expect to get everything their way. It always has to be on THEIR terms, while they pretend that it’s a man’s world so that they can get even MORE control by bi*ching about it! My solution: if you really want the home to be tidy with everything in its place, then do it yourself and keep quiet. Men are always handy for other things, like cutting the grass, cleaning the car, often doing the shopping (or at least helping with it) – doing the heavy lifting, and generally being the one to go downstairs at 3AM if there are strange noises in the house.They are usually the ones who have to work long hours and put up with sadistic bosses and office politics (and keep their mouths shut) while the ladies have taken off years to look after the kiddies. (Once the kids are in school, unless they go back to work, have plenty of time for coffee clatches and yoga while the men are still putting up with the stresses of office life. Then they go home and get MORE nagging? NOT fair! As a retired man I notice that during the day 80% of the people out shopping, running, sunbathing in parks or the beach and quietly reading a book in cafés are invariably women… and I doubt very much that the dearth of men out and about during the day is because they are at home watching sports on tv. Nope: they are working themselves into early graves while the ladies (except single mothers) generally have it easier; not always, but generally.
But if you’re diabetic, tthen what?
