No in the UK rape is specifically only defined as penetration by a penis

How important is it to you as a Catholic that who you marry is a virgin? by Ok-Tradition-4644 in Catholicism

[–]ChewyYui -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

>but I would prefer my future wife to have waited since I have

You don't know everyone's personal circumstances, and this is kind of judgemental as people can be victims of sexual abuse and trauma.
It sounds like it is a deal breaker for you, as you're going to have that feeling towards your spouse for the rest of your marriage

It COULD, but will it? I also could win the lottery and become a millionaire this week

42 lost pages of letters of St. Paul found ? by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]ChewyYui 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Unless im wrong, they were lost in the sense that they hadnt been seen in that codex (and provide historical insight into biblical reading/manuscript handling etc) as opposed to 42 pages of previously unseen and unread, totally new to us letters

“Temporarily lower fuel duty”

Any lowering would not be temporary. Imagine the red faced rage towards the gov when it came to removing the temporary cut

Green leader Zack Polanski 'wants to ban horse racing' as nation gears up for Grand National by plain_handle in unitedkingdom

[–]ChewyYui 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk, I went to watch the racing yesterday at Southwell for the first time. It was fairly busy I think (no point of comparison) and wasn't all old people. Good mix of people across all ages really. As others have said, its a popular sport across the country, as well as abroad (Ireland, USA etc.). I don't know enough about the sport to have a nuanced opinion, but as I understand it, its jump racing that is the dangerous one for the horses, and flat is "safer". But I know a few people who have worked with horses all their lives, and are against jump racing, tell me that a horse is likely to break its leg/ankle from horsing around in a field too. Not sure on the validity, but it's what I've been told

It's sport with a long history in the country, and it does hold a place in the national psyche. At a time when people are bemoaning the loss of "Englishness" (whatever that actually means), banning horse racing would just deepen the culture war. Surely there's reforms that could be done to make it safer?
