and that was the 20th
so maybe it was just prior
actually, it would be as one facilitated the other
right i was thinking that the addition of female votes probably allowed the 2/3rd majority needed to make alcohol illegal federally
yep and women's suffage as well as prohibition efforts centers around the church enviornment being given political leverage
in a way though, values ALWAYS influence politics
so whomever controls the hearts and minds, wields the political power
the devil is in the details
the only caveat is that in the past, this was mitigated somewhat by having seperate spheres of influence
women over domestic and community affairs
men over political and pragmatic affairs
each had a type of 'authority' in their own sphere but wasn't allowed to violate the other's sphere as a consequence
i think all cultures stem from that arrangement but typically, there gender roles always account trade-offs
well and now we see that when you try to erode those traditional roles because we think we're smarter or somehow above those traditions... people are unhappy
Hispanic Culture grants women far more lattitude to be 'open' but at a cost of shaparoning from top to bottom
and society starts turning to shit
that is always true to some extend though
We live in a society
i think the BIGGEST difference is that in the past, reality FORCED you to test your ideas
yea and now our lives are so leisurely, we have the spare time to start questioning these traditions and their value
today, the internet allows you to maintain those ideas despite the cognitive dissonance that results
that is true as well
next thing you know
both the internal as well as external motivators have been greatly removed
we got sodomy parades
that was pretty much immediate the moment we let the class clowns and hippies 'just do what they felt like'
well and the demographic changes that are taking place
sodomy parades were immediate due to class clowns and hippies??
in the same way as giving gays a protected status displaces the mechanisms which traditionally enforce/encourage gender roles and thus prioritize values
the propaganda and etc
intelligent people espeacially think that the rules shouldn't apply to them cause they are diffrent. they fail to realize that if an exception is made for THEM, the rules will be rendered powerless
the only way the rules have the desired effect on the fringes of society is that if EVERYONE is expected to follow them and the consequences for not following them are standardized
certain rules are just for the subhumans though ... or because of them
no, rules are only RULES unless there are little to no exceptions
otherwise, you just have 'suggestions' or 'guidelines'
well now that begs the question godman
do you think people should be arrested/fined for sodomy
not arrested; but punished
fine? or just social berating
don't tell me cause it hurts
