If "men" is meant in the "mankind" sense and you get rid of the last three words, then I'm all on board.

I'm going to be charitable and assume that you've suffered a temporary loss of sanity and are not being a troll on purpose.

You're extraordinarily tuned in to the female psyche there, Lewis.  Perhaps you are a girl.

None of you have a sense of humor.

Then again, this wasn't all that funny.

I'll amend my usual 'why do you hate representative democracy?' question.

Why do you hate civilization?

But women are the ones who actually are prostitutes, opebo-chan.

I love civilization and hate the opposite of civilization, which is unprovoked force.

I agree. Which is why there are laws. To prevent human existence from being characterized by brute force.

So you agree that there is no situation in which unprovoked force is appropriate?

Yes but I'm almost positive we would have very different definitions of both force and provocation.

Provocation: The use of force against another person.

Force: Threatening to cause or causing harm to another person, including bodily harm and/or confiscation/destruction of property.  (The second part is only for clarification, confiscation or destruction of a person's property obviously can only occur under the threat of bodily harm).

Hm. I suppose I have a some woolly conception of 'property' (or rather, I'm highly pessimistic about the usual ways in which large amounts of personal property are accumulated). I'd also add 'interrupting one's ability to lead a peaceful life/livelihood for one's personal gain beyond the same ability' to the definition of what constitutes 'force'.

I find this idea to be a good one. Why does everyone want everything put to a vote anyway? Simply because 51% vote for something does that automatically make it a good idea? Something along the lines of abortion should only be decided by one voter: the person who is pregnant with the fetus. Nobody (man or woman) should get to vote on that personal decision.

Obviously 'nice' females want to ban prostitution as it removes their leverage over men.  They should be disqualified from voting on the issue.

Obviously 'nice' females want to ban prostitution as it removes their leverage over men.  They should be disqualified from voting on the issue.

Does the fact that the actual prostitutes are also female have any relevance to your thinking on the subject?

Also, what's wrong with having one area, just one, in which women have 'leverage' over men rather than the other way around, anyway? (Not to say that I agree with you that banning prostitution inherently constitutes that.)
