    Should women be allowed to serve in the infantry?

    This is a very difficult question to answer unless you have had some sort of experience in the defence forces. Just one thing off the top of my head, is that males instinctively feel protective of women. If males are constantly trying to protect their female co-workers who are on the front...

    A business model to break the law?

    I knew i business that had a plan like this. They are a pub, and basically they flouted a lot of licencing laws and just copped the fine because by ignoring the laws they made alot more money than the fine alone was. An example is their happy hour. Once a week they had like a 4hr happy hour...

    Women in the Workplace - Pay Equity?

    probably a combination of both. Men are raised to be highly competitive, aggressive negotiators, failure or substandard pay is not acceptable and your entire worth as a man is based upon your status and earning potential. Women are raised to be more cooperative, that its ok to make mistakes and...

    The Return to Fault-Based Divorce

    You are right, it is a pretty exciting idea. I dont support it, but nevertheless it does raise some interesting questions. Is there actually any negitive consequence to being found at fault, like there is in i think california? over there the one at fault gets less [and in extreme cases, none]...

    Women in the Workplace - Pay Equity?

    We talked a bit about this in one of my 3rd yr psych classes. Whilst there is a pay gap, i dont think any of it is overt sexism, women arent being payed less because they are women, they are being payed less because on average they dont work as hard, or as long, they take more hollidays, they...

    Is it better to die upon your feet than to live upon your knees?

    If that is the case, then name half a dozen times where people of a city or nation have done exactly that, rejected surrender terms and chosen to fight to the last woman and child. If it is clearly such a better choice, then it shouldnt be hard to find examples of cities making that choice.

    Is it better to die upon your feet than to live upon your knees?

    Yes. The ultimate goal is survival, if fighting back will get you nothing but killed, what is the point? just capitulate, survive, bide your time and strike when you will actually be effective and cause a difference, rather than being a courageous yet ultimately foolish and dead warrior. It...

    Change the nudity laws!

    Theres nothing inherently disgusting or wrong or "sinful" about the human body. If nudity was decriminalised i still dont think things would really change, the vast majority of people would still wear clothes, just the odd nudist now wont be charged because they wanted to walk around naked. You...

    Animal cruelty is the same as racism.

    did you even read that link? Their "moderate vegetarian" group was a group that ate a lot of fresh produce, but also ate meat sometimes. Their health levels were no different to strict vegans who don't consume any animal products. Theres dozens of reasons why people who consume less meat than...

    Is it better to die upon your feet than to live upon your knees?

    As an individual , the top one can be a very personal question. Obviously your aim in live is to live as long and as well as you can. It might be noble to die for your beliefs, but now you are dead. Better to live whilst compromising your beliefs and fight another day, a battle that you can...

    Animal cruelty is the same as racism.

    Source please. If you are talking about the calorie reduced diet that makes you live longer, you can still eat meat, just less of it. Most people who live off a solely vegetable diet are not healthy individuals...theres also plenty of evidence that suggests growing children need the proteins...

    Animal cruelty is the same as racism.

    I never said eating them was a necessity, i said farming them was... you know, to fuel our taste for meat. Although i am sure someone could make an argument that you need to eat animals to be healthy.

    Change the nudity laws!

    I dont think things would really change that much, the vast majority of people would still wear clothes for modesty, warmth, protection or to make a fashion statement. The only real difference is people wont be prosecuted for being naked if they want to.

    Animal cruelty is the same as racism.

    If i am going to be honest with myself, then i consider farming animals to be a necessity, but one that i find distasteful. Far better is when we hunted animals in the wild, while they live out free in the world then you kill a small amount of the adult ones. In my mind a perfect solution would...

    Animal cruelty is the same as racism.

    Well the egg industry isnt regulated very well. "free range" could be a complete lie because nobody checks it, or it could be that they leave the barn door open for an hour a week [but the chooks dont go outside because they have never been outside and they dont know how to] or their outside...

    Change the nudity laws!

    I dont really know why someone would want to walk around in public naked, but i also see no reason why they should be prosecuted for it. Sure, go for it.

    Looking for Ideas of Startups or Making Money as a Student.

    You could set up an "aussie BBQ" near wherever all the international students have classes or hang out. This is what i mate of mine did, he cooked up a whole heap of meat, steaks, lamb chops, roo steaks, saussages etc etc and sold them for a really high mark up. I think he said he made $800...

    Animal cruelty is the same as racism.

    We have done worse things than that, the thing is, the really unethical stuff that probably wouldnt pass an ethics board today, it ends up being amongst the most useful and widely used research. This guy did some little experiments on monkeys where he cut bits of their skin off and severed...
