as in you get the same for the same kind of work
Equal Wages or Equal Pay?
Two different thing
Equal Wages make sense if both gender did the same work
Equal Pay is just getting paid for having the same job
I'm for equal wages, it is based
If a person owns a piece of property, don’t they have the right to dictate terms for who enters or makes use of that property? As a rightful owner, can’t I say, *”You must take off your shoes if you want to enter my house”*? Isn’t it equally within my rights to tell one person they must take off their shoes and another that they may leave then on? This is an essential characteristic of ownership, is it not? You need not enter if you don’t accept my terms - I’m not forcing you to come in.
@michael Why do I feal you just say this to get a girlfriend

"Born Gay" - Is sexual orientation determined at birth?
its a mixture really
environment can have a massive impact on how someone perceives sexuality
but i think being gay can be either an active choice or just a natural feeling
I would say yes, it does seems to be genetic, mostly because we've observed animals in the wild with *exclusive* gay tendencies when mating
there's definitely genetics involved
I think that the society one is raised in can push a person's sexuality to the sideline, but the baseline genetic makeup and therefore desire is always "there"
I don't really think being gay is any more of a choice then being straight. No matter how hard I try, I cannot will myself to desire to lick another man's butthole. I would imagine it's simply vice versa for gay people
true, but you could have at some point has that desire instilled into you
personally i think my environment had a heavy impact on sexuality
What sort of environment would cause somebody to become gay, for example?
well
And what could cause an animal,with no societal pressures to speak of, to become gay and mate exclusively (even with alternatives present) with others of the same sex?
yeah, that's down to genetics
im not saying it doesn't have an impact
I guess it would make sense lol, I could even use my nature vs nurture analogy
but if a society preferred homosexuality or there was some sort of sexual trauma in a person
i grew up around one gender
GG @Deleted User, you just advanced to level 1!
and i struggle to get any attraction from the other
I would say that there still has to always be the base genetic component there, but perhaps some societal pressures push people who are already genetically disposed to be gay to have an attraction to those of the same sex?
I think my glass of water analogy I use in regards to nature and nurture would fit this well, actually
Nature, being how big the glass is, and nurture, how much water is poured into the glass. Genetics determine the size of this "glass" (or in our case, the possibility of having a same sex attraction) and perhaps societal circumstances would be how much this glass is filled?
If that is the case, I wouldn't call it a choice, since somebody who has a genetic "chance" to be gay and who then is gay because of further societal pressures can't just choose not to be gay
I mean Shakespeare was definitely Bi (or Bi-Curious) so it can't just be environment by itself
