Not at all. Everyone is free to express themselves. It's like i said, more of a morale stand point. 

Doesn’t seem like there should be much of a moral issue. “I’m going to let those people over there live their life how they want, and I live mine how I want.” The end.

Said a citizen of the country, where the head of the Supreme Audit Office was renting a hotel rooms with hourly counting to the mafia's prostitutes.

 

Sex always sells. I can only second guess what businesses all these politicians control in private? One case made it to the press and it's not even the tip of the iceberg :p

You sir, have not seen my parties :p (This is 100% a joke, I’ve never even held hands with a girl/guy, so orgy would be a rather large step)

 

This whole statement shows that you’ve never been to SoCal :p (except the slavery part. We never endorsed slavery, and we don’t joke about that)

 

I'm talking about people in undisputed power. Compared to a Roman Emperor, you're a stellar ash :p

 

George Washington was a slave owner and everyone is fine with that some 200+ years later (I mean his face is still on the one dollar bill, right?). This is why things socially acceptable change over time. No way a slave owner gets elected as President in XXI century :lol: In 200 years men kissing men on the street will be socially acceptable in Poland too but I wouldn't bet my house on this :mumble:

Well, 39 GOP Senators have officially signed the paperwork needed to ask the US Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade (the decision that legalized abortion). The fight for women’s rights begins today. California will be the first to challenge the decision if it’s overturned.

Fact we’re in the ‘Twenties’ sounds so weird. It’s so synonymous with the 1920s. Sounds like a bygone era when women were still fighting for their rights, the upper classes were living a life of hedonism whilst people starved & the world was on the verge of financial ruin and war.

Every day makes me fall in love with Trump more and more.   Hopefully in 2024 his son runs.   There really shouldn't be any other president in America that doesnt have the last name of Trump

    • Argentina also has ski centers on the Tierra del Fuego but that doesn't mean it will immediately become a powerhouse in this sport 
    • Speak for yourself. Why should we give up our one great talent of the younger generation when we have no one else? Maybe from the same reason that the USA didn't give up Schiffrin to another country when she had 17-18...
    • A very ignorant statement.   Of course the UK is not exactly known for its winter sport but there are some ski resorts mainly in Scotland, like the Cairngorms or the Nevis Range.
    • But in women's epee another defeat by Ukraine. We are slowly developing a complex about this country, because we are constantly losing to them in sabre too. Sabre has always been Ukrainian, epee for a draw or our slight advantage but a failed in women`s foil, which is already a shocking novelty  
    • What comeback for the italian men's foil team in the finals vs the USA  Bianchi won 9-3 against Massialas in the last bout 
    • Not often your prayers  get answered so quickly!
