Well, another issue is that of partner benefits. Even though the US government allows benefits for same sex partners in most public service jobs a serviceman or woman could not claim due to immediate expulsion. The most noteworthy of those, though perhaps the least common in this day and age, is...

I don't really qualify as an upsurge. The Post-modernist/construction point: I actually think the post-modernists have it partly right here but in order to examine the issue in a lucid manner you need to consider that femineity/masculinity, gender identity, biological gender, sexual...

Ok, I have an apple tv which only handles mpeg-4 movies apparently and I also have numerous video files on my computer. How can I swiftly convert all of these into mpeg-4 files? Oh and I have a mac. Thanks in advance, sexies.

Hmmm. They are nice but I'm wondering, where is the wtf lol factor? Kami is not kami without a touch of lol.

post on mai wall, I'm literally 200 PMs over my inbox limit :o

The problem there though is that discussion of partners, sexual commentary and what not are inherent in basic bond forming - people always end up talking about these things despite the anti-fraternisation policies. Also, if you are required to keep your life more secret than necessary than those...

Well, apparently there were lots of problems initially, as I've gotten the impression that there were quite a few cases of assault and battery back in the beginning of female recruitment. I'd also expect there to be quite a few issues with conservative superiors in command of soldiers who happen...

I think the OP has a point but is just unable to articulate it in a very ... appropriate manner. We do have an underlying philosophy of man vs. beast in our society which validates mistreatment of animals at numerous levels which is in some ways similar to, but not the same as, some of the...

Why? We don't entirely leave the development of a child's numeracy, literacy etc. up to the parent and in fact we require the parent to submit their child to an institution for these things for the child's own benefit. Why shouldn't we put this in a required sphere since it's something that's...

Well, some of the arguments about the 'risks' I've read from political advisors affiliated with congress are ridiculous (and some are misogynistic to boot). Some of the arguments so far: "there is no right to be in the military ... some people are just not eligible" (... wtf) 'sensitivity'...

Well, I wanted someone else to say it, haha, but definitely. My thoughts, personally, are that we should stop strictly defining sex and work with 'sex ed' from there; sex doesn't require penetration or a vagina or a penis, our entire body is a sexual organ in its way and if we de-stigmatise our...

I agree with this whole heartedly. I'd also think there should be some effort made to remove the stigma suffered by teenage mothers and HIV sufferers in these sorts of things. Too many people see HIV as the dark unknowable thing that doesn't happen to them even though they know the facts. It's...

Sorry m8, ive just been lonely witout u. wil u forgive me?

Including gays is an easy way to relieve tension, imo. A mouth is a mouth, amirite? That's all too likely, unfortunately, but this in particular isn't going to harm his image or reduce his political capital to any noticeable degree. He literally just has to sign a piece of paper suspending the...

During his campaign President Obama promised to repeal Don't ask, Don't tell (DADT) which is a military policy in the US forbidding LGBT persons from serving openly in the military. However, in the wake of his being inducted into office, Obama has completely back pedaled on the issue despite...

It seems like an incredibly flawed proposal but I think most attempts to curb 'internet piracy' through legislation just don't work. The process of consumption and production has changed dramatically since the rise of the internet and you're right when you note that people expect their free...

LOL Are you well? Gender roles and orientation are entirely distinct and have nothing to do with each other. That tells you all you need to know. He's not available to you whether he's gay, straight or anything in between so stop dwelling over his sexual orientation and move on.

Someone behaving in an [insert here] way does not mean anything as far as sexuality goes. That shit is about gender roles, not orientation, and we've moved past gender roles as well - tomboys, business women, stay at home dads and metrosexuals etc. Someone liking guys does not necessarily mean...

It's called biphobia. *shrug*
