It's problematic to say the least. I mean, someone who absolutely is against drone attacks as well as a military operation in Northern Waziristan, comes up and says, there should be a military operation in Karachi.

But rather what seems right. If most of that puts me on the liberal side of the spectrum, that's good, but I don't have to be a stereotypical one at that.<br /><br />As for the evo-psychology swipe, we do believe we need to fight against our natural behaviors sometimes to prevent serious harm to society. <br /><br />It's ludicrous, however, to fight against nature to prevent PERCEIVED harm to society. No woman ever caught leprosy for choosing to bare her breasts, or a man for baring his privates. Such behaviors are degrading only if the society believes that they're degrading. And it's far easier to alter society's perceptions than to undo hundreds of thousands of years of evolution.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-611004225027751946.post-90476402569128770062012-11-21T08:49:35.117-08:002012-11-21T08:49:35.117-08:00In general yes.
