as in you get the same for the same kind of work

2019-05-03 15:08:34 UTC  

Equal Wages or Equal Pay?

2019-05-03 15:08:38 UTC  

Two different thing

2019-05-03 15:08:53 UTC  

Equal Wages make sense if both gender did the same work

2019-05-03 15:09:04 UTC  

Equal Pay is just getting paid for having the same job

2019-05-03 15:09:09 UTC  

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.

2019-05-03 23:24:27 UTC  

Feminist culture is toxic

2019-05-03 23:24:39 UTC  

And everyone knows saying this shit doesn’t get girls btw

2019-05-03 23:24:42 UTC  

imdeed

2019-05-03 23:24:45 UTC  

I have a whole subreddit to prove it

2019-05-04 00:22:41 UTC  

hi im a gender

2019-05-04 00:22:48 UTC  

bye

2019-05-04 00:25:01 UTC  

same

2019-05-04 10:46:39 UTC  

"Born Gay" - Is sexual orientation determined at birth?

2019-05-04 11:18:13 UTC  

its a mixture really

2019-05-04 11:18:31 UTC  

environment can have a massive impact on how someone perceives sexuality

2019-05-04 11:18:57 UTC  

but i think being gay can be either an active choice or just a natural feeling

2019-05-04 11:28:45 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 11:29:32 UTC  

there's definitely genetics involved

2019-05-04 11:29:39 UTC  

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"

2019-05-04 11:30:39 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 11:32:12 UTC  

true, but you could have at some point has that desire instilled into you

2019-05-04 11:32:26 UTC  

personally i think my environment had a heavy impact on sexuality

2019-05-04 11:33:09 UTC  

What sort of environment would cause somebody to become gay, for example?

2019-05-04 11:34:39 UTC  

well

2019-05-04 11:34:40 UTC  

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?

2019-05-04 11:34:50 UTC  

yeah, that's down to genetics

2019-05-04 11:35:00 UTC  

im not saying it doesn't have an impact

2019-05-04 11:35:28 UTC  

I guess it would make sense lol, I could even use my nature vs nurture analogy

2019-05-04 11:35:37 UTC  

but if a society preferred homosexuality or there was some sort of sexual trauma in a person

2019-05-04 11:35:51 UTC  

i grew up around one gender

2019-05-04 11:35:51 UTC  

GG @Deleted User, you just advanced to level 1!

2019-05-04 11:36:02 UTC  

and i struggle to get any attraction from the other

2019-05-04 11:36:51 UTC  

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?

2019-05-04 11:37:07 UTC  

I think my glass of water analogy I use in regards to nature and nurture would fit this well, actually

2019-05-04 11:38:33 UTC  

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?

2019-05-04 11:39:18 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 12:02:16 UTC  

I mean Shakespeare was definitely Bi (or Bi-Curious) so it can't just be environment by itself
