I'm a GUY. CHRIST xDDDD

My /girlfriend/ is walking around a house with a bunch of male friends ogling her chest, and she doesn't give it a thought.

awh, that's cute.
whatd she say when you told her how you felt?


I’m selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle, but if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.

Cultural relativism doesn't mean moral relativism though.

Every culture still has understandings as to acceptable behavior.

It's only a circumstance of location what varying degree dignity is taken to.

Kind of how like a promise is worth a promise the world over.

But like you said though, the WHY is generally more important.


I have to say I find what you say makes me think. How would you define morality? What would be the parameters?


Sing like no one's listening, love like you've never been hurt, dance like nobody's watching, and live like its heaven on earth.

The deepest craving of human nature is the need to be appreciated. -William James

Life is not lost by dying; life is lost minute by minute, day by dragging day, in all the thousand small uncaring ways. -Stephen Vincent Benet

I'm a bitch, I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
When you hurt, when you suffer
I'm your angel undercover
I've been numb, I'm revived
Can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it any other way

Morality, as I see it at least is defined by three things, the needs of the individual, the needs of the immediate group, and the needs of the society in general. Lately as a people we've come up with another set of morality which is the needs of the planet as a whole.

Morality is really a set of doctrines that are laid out to ensure a functioning infrastructure. It's why murder as opposed to just killing has been outlawed by every group of people ever.

There's the idea of cultural relativism, which my friend and I disagree on. For example the murder of female infants in certain societies undermining the point of survival, however the way I see it is to ensure the group can survive as the misogyny has established a stable environment, most of the places where this happens are male dominated due to the climate, genetically speaking after millenia of these folks unknowing altering their genes these people are incapable of surviving any other way.

What I'm trying to say is that morals are dependent on who is in charge deems necessary for their way of life to thrive. However you will see trends to any society historically as to a few basic rules.
