Jul 17, 2012 Beguine commented on Every Child Deserves a Mother and a Father.

@15: Actually, studies say kids from lesbian households do best of all in terms of emotional stability, etc. If we're trying to send kids to ideal households, we should favor those that have doubled down on the mommies over those who have mix and match genitalia. Besides, how does keeping kids with parents like these seem better than letting them be legally adopted by someone like Terry and Dan? The fact is, there are more kids than there are stable loving homes full stop, leaving aside only recognizing families with two parents of the opposite sex. Would you really say these opposite sex parents deserve more legal recognition as a family than a loving gay couple who provide a stable home for their children, or that it would be better for this girl to go back to her psycho stepmom and dad rather than being placed with a lesbian couple with who are raising other happy, well adjusted kids?

So first you need to go on a hike and find a smooth rock...

@1 Yup. Poverty also increases the chances kids are exposed to mouse droppings, mold, and most especially second hand smoke, all factors that can exacerbate asthmatic symptoms.

If she was talking about how dirty and wrong SHE FELT, rather than how dirty and wrong IT WAS, then she doesn't even owe him an apology for that. She should consider DTMFA.

"...and it's pretty close to it's natural state in terms of processing, unlike, say, hash. similar to opium versus heroin. or coca leaves versus cocaine." Apologies if I'm failing a sarcasm detection roll here, @23, but last time I checked opium and coca were both still drugs.

May 14, 2012 Beguine commented on SL Letter of the Day: Hope Not Nope.

What's with the random defensive rage at another poster, @20? EricaP was addressing another commenter who DOES think there partner with another person is sexy, at last as a fantasy. I'm personally a fan of monogamy, but when you jump down someone's throat for having a different sexuality than you and tell them they're degrading themselves and/or trying to project their sexuality on everyone around them for asking an innocent question...well, have you ever heard rants by those super homophobes that are obviously closet cases? I think you see where I'm going with this.

It's really more the beating it to death and then proudly putting it on a spit while covered is blood that is horrifying than the fact that they were eating dog meat, 8. I mean, there's a difference between doing what you have to do in order to survive when you're starving and you have no tools to kill whatever you're trying to eat humanely, and a bunch of bored rich little sociopaths chosing to inflict a painful, terrifying, prolongued death on a domesticated animal to feel manly or because they get off on it.

Apr 2, 2012 Beguine commented on President Obama Swipes Back at Claims That He Hates American Exceptionalism.

I wonder if there's a way to make @8's points that hits home for the Republican base. Something like 'you can honestly, deeply love your country without making a false idol of it.'

Could be, I guess. Pretty sure both the tongs and the triads have tats that indicate membership.

Mar 26, 2012 Beguine commented on Santorum for Number Two!.

Wait, the 'moderate' they think will pull swing voters despite the fact that they slid all they way to the right in the primaries paired with the total nutbar religious fanatic that makes the dominionist base swoon but that terrifies/disgusts/amuses everyone else? Didn't that ticket already not do so well against Obama?
