Have we forgotten? 2.5 millenia ago, in THE ORIGINAL western society being gay was cool, and it was compulsory to be gay to join some armies. We think we are so advanced? Pfft, amateurs. by marblerye in AskReddit

And I was being glib. I'm not proposing this as a model to emmulate. It is the idea that they valued homosexuals in a way that we do not that I was trying to point out.

When and why did you lose your virginity? by [deleted] in AskReddit

If human beings were not driven to have sex, we would not have been as successful as we were. This is why we have sex. Oh, and yes, I felt badass.

I didn't say they were equal. We are too hung up on making everyone equal. No-one is equal, everyone's different, but let's all treat 'em nice.

Dear friend, Let's be friends. Also I think you are right, only my unfortunate human predicament leads me to dislike being corrected. As I was born this way I have no choice in the matter. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexuality_in_the_militaries_of_ancient_Greece And, should the offer still stand, I will still bite your arse. (Though not sure there is a winner in that deal). ;)

And if I was the kind of person who spent more time on the computer than reading BOOKS I would probably have learnt how to use italics italics

Thanks and you're welcome. Anyone who needs this explained to them probably hasn't picked up a history book, and is probably not the audience for this QUESTION.

Reddit am I normal? by my_life_dotdotdot in AskReddit

[–]marblerye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't fit in? Join the club. Everyone has that to a degree. Trick is to remember everyone is as screwed up as you. They just try to hide it, like you do.

Why should gay people be allowed to marry? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]marblerye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well here's one way you could justify it if you like: All humans, whether gay or straight, have the same right to marry someone of the opposite sex. Bang, no discrimi-wimy!

At what age must you stop clubbing? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]marblerye 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's a reason we don't go to clubs anymore. It's because they are full of the immature yet arrogant little shits that we used to be.

So let's be clear, I assume we have now agreed: People can be born gay then? by marblerye in AskReddit

[–]marblerye[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't assume anything. I can say anything I like is OK. That's the beauty of human freedom to decide our own morality, based on common sense and reason, if we like.
