What’s the weirdest thing society accepts as normal?

Cheese on a stick

That's not normal anywhere tho is it.

Stop proselytising. This isn't an abortion thread. Stop trying to force women to give birth. That's traumatising for the women. Women with unwanted pregnancies have the option of carrying the baby to term and having it adopted. But it should be her choice to do so. Not because abortion has been banned by anti-abortion zealots like you.

It's very, very common - although they're normally used at night or for puppy training purposes/to keep them out if the way at certain times... rather than like with animals who basically live in a cage 24/7.

Depends what you mean. It has become far too normalised and it is now socially acceptable to crate puppies as a "training" method.

...Just to add, I have big reservations about people keeping dogs in cages at all (unless they're known to be dangerously out of control and can't be sedated) - although I'm not a dog owner.

My comment was purely that I know a lot of people do make that choice.

I am a dog owner and I'm against crating (unless for medical reasons or travel), hence my first comment.

Alcoholism being a UK “culture” thing. Especially in Ireland and Scotland.

Why would you want 5 husbands… ones bad enough!!! 😀

FYI, Rastafarian women are given a weeks rest when they are on their period. They still have to do their day job, but the men do everything else. The woman doesn't lift a finger at home for a week.

The land grab by Europeans in Palestine

That carers, who care for the most loved “things” we have, ie other people not actual things, be they for the young, the sick or the aged are paid so little in comparison to someone in say, marketing, acting, the film industry or advertising.
Ditto firemen and women and first responders including members of the police. They should be paid far more
It’s just mad.

My dad remembers going to the doctors in the 60’s and the doctor always had a fag on the go, an overflowing ashtray and a glass of whiskey at whatever time he went in. His old school friend also remembers it and says the doctor once gave him the money to go to the shop and get him a box of 20 fags.

Another one for me is how children are now so penned in everywhere and not given the freedom to explore (obviously within reason and for their age). I do think it impacts on their mental health and also on their adult life as they haven’t learnt to adapt or be aware of unpredictable situations that can occur.

Mutilating a child by cutting off their foreskin for clitoris - this is child abuse

Yep it was in Leicester Sq in London
the ice cream was called “Baby Gaga”. It was banned because of a risk of transmitting HIV.

Some clearly are. It’s openly being allowed to happen.

Exactly this! It’s the most annoying thing I have ever heard…..

another one is how so many women want to look like Kim kardashians plastic version of her self.

Boris Johnson. That anyone has ever wanted to reproduce with this guy.

Nope, but it would be nice to have a choice. Not everyone's the same.

Taxes

Why is that weird? How else would you fund roads, hospitals, education etc etc?

😂

This! Hideous.

Yes, you're absolutely right.

And same here about the doctors. Our doctor sat smoking too and used to offer my mum one, which she took!!!

Completely agree!
Horrific..

Don't forget the sausage and the little silver skin onion....😊
