your argument in this thread has mainly been that you think certain things should be done in private.
so why is the first photo of two people kissing ok but the second one not?
is it ok for a man and a woman to have sex on the street?
where do you draw the line on acceptable public behavior?
There use to be these concepts called propriety, modesty, decency, consideration. I know people are different. I get that. But does it have to be thrown in our faces and crammed down our throats everyday? Every fucking day.
Remember that pic of the nurse kissing the sailor after the end of WW2 in Times Square?
This is what we have become now.
I so want this cesspool of a planet to end already.

Excerpt from the article:
The vast majority of the comments have been supportive.
Tim Chung said, "Thank you for your service. Welcome home. You are so brave for doing that, especially on military property. In that setting, wow what a terrific day!"
is it ok for a man and a woman to have sex on the street?
where do you draw the line on acceptable public behavior?
So you are against peeing in public solely because of health and sanitary reasons? What health risks are done when someone pees in the bushes? Has anyone ever gotten sick because of that? If it was done in what you define in a sanitary manner -- say we put toilet bowls right next to a bus stop would you be for people publicly relieving themselves as long as it is sanitary and they flushed? Are you against people walking their dogs and having them pee in public?
And once again, it was YOU that made the claim that you don't care what anybody does in public. You do care and were simply lying to yourself. Wearing underwear at a funeral harms no one physically. There are many forms of inappropriate and indecent behavior that doesn't physically harm anyone. It's the lost sense of propriety, consideration and decency I'm talking about.
And I can see the personal attacks coming out. That didn't take long. Your anger and frustration is palatable.
And I'm the horrible debater. Keep trying.
you are arguing on a slippery slope basis. that if we allow one behavior that is considered to be indecent that we ought to allow all behaviors that are considered as such.
and you think that this shows that we shouldnt let any indecent behavior be allowed.
but i think its quite the opposite. you ask if we should let someone pee in the bushes in public. i ask you, why not? does the birds in the air not shit all over our streets everyday? does the bear in the woods not pee whereever he sees fit? do the rabbits in the forest not have intercourse out in the open, completely naked?
what man considers indecent he considers so because of thousands of years of repression and oppression, thousands of years of people telling us that we ought be ashamed of our bodies, that we ought abstain from sexual affection, that we must never partake in pleasures, that we ought to only say this word but never say that word. blah blah blah.
whatever is natural , is natural. we are all naked. we all defecate, urinate, ejaculate. why some people feel the need to tell the world that we should all act as if we are not what we truly are, pretend that our genitals dont exist, pretend that our shit doesnt stink, pretend that we dont get turned on by each other... whatever the reason.. its sad.
i can only imagine how great the world would be if no one felt any negativity towards other people, and nobody ever inhibited anyone else from behaving however they chose unless they were choosing to behave in a manner harmful to others.
