What is one hill you will die on?

[whitetip]

One opinion that you have that will never waver, no matter what?..

That comprehensive parenting classes which educate people on topics including attachment theory should be mandatory in schools.

There wouldn't be many babies born to breeding age humans if this was the rule.

Which country/ culture’s table manners are you speaking of?

I detest snobbery about made up rules.

Religion has no place in the modern world

Women's rights are human rights.

that cooking sugar is a drug and it's quite strange that we think it's normal to fill up multiple food spaces at children's events with cake, chocolate, sweets, sugary pastries etc etc, and give sugary biscuits out at toddler groups etc, and have to follow every meal with dessert. They were happy enough before they ever tasted the stuff.

There are a lot of parallels between Brianna’s murder and that of Sophie Lancaster. Two young people murdered for simply being different. We need to look at the kind of society that creates people who would commit this kind of act. Toxic masculinity is a problem.

ITA. I had a relative who was always doing this and in the end I had to put my foot down, as enough was enough.

Lots of deep subjects addressed here.

A more trivial one: in comedy films Life of Brian will never be topped.

Because you posted that your daughter was terrified and you were heart broken?

I think you're trying to see 'hatred' everywhere, even in places where it clearly isn't.

@HarpieDuJour 'hill to be slightly injured on'.

I love this! I have so many hills upon which I'm willing to be mildly wounded.

Oh?

1.That just because it's your 'human right' to have children, doesn't mean you should. Make sure you can afford them, house them and educate them before you go down that route.

1. Breastfeeding a baby makes not one iota of difference to how you child develops.

You cannot change sex.

The hill which I'm willing to sit down on is that humans are dichotomously sexed mammals and sex is immutable. I'd rather not die on it, there's a lot of other stuff that needs doing. But basic reality must be asserted - I think it's dangerous to attempt to coerce people to believe absurdities.

'Those who would have us believe absurdities would have us commit atrocities', also known as ' those who would have us believe humans can change sex would have us cutting the sex organs out of healthy children'.

Dogs, especially large breeds, should not be kept as pets.

The majority of people that own dogs don't look after them properly, train them properly, or both. Lots of dogs live lives that are inadequate in some way and/or cause a nuisance to others.

It is not bigoted, it is a fact and it is important to women, the thread is about their hill

That anyone who is cruel or neglectful towards children or animals should be punished immediately, harshly and for a long, long time.

Mainly because they don't pose the same threat. I don't want men of any age in women-only spaces. How males identify doesn't change this basic right for me. I am scared and upset if a man is in a public toilet with me. Why do men's self identity trump my right to feel safe?

Why does being told 'no' mean we hate trans people?

We dont hate trans people. We just believe that biological reality is real and that women's rights are important. Women need single sex spaces for safety and decency yet 50% of the population are being told what we need is not important. In the last census people who answered as trans was 0.1% of the population. Why are trans rights more important than women's rights?

Pregnant women who drink or smoke are selfish....

To the breastfeeding is better post.....

Please give me evidence for this, as I have never seen any in real life.

Correct.

Likewise, dumping a child in childcare from 6 months until school age is no way to raise them.

I corrected myself. It was a typo. Where have I incorrectly used punctuation?

I will oppose any law making it compulsory to carry ID, because I know hit would be misused by the Police and other officious twerps. Aside from it being ruinously expensive of course.
