It backs you up. If the FBI finds some corroboration, she has that ammunition going into the hearings, instead of the hearings being hours of Republican senators calling her and evil lying slut like they did the last time we had this problem.

Well, the United States Senate can't vote on that. I'd probably petition my government to have her removed, were I Australian. Edit: a quick google doesn't show her as having committed paternity fraud, only voted for the fraudster in a legal decision, and it shows that she is retired now.

I agree, and likely every prosecutor ever would agree. But we aren't talking about a prosecution. We're talking about a permanent appointment to one of the most powerful position in the country, and one that he's already proved himself unfit for by his prior actions, lying to congress and using stolen materials for personal gain.

The number of women who can physically do the job of many of the positions in the military is statistically very small. That's just how biology works. What you choose to do with that fact is up to you. Israel makes a government service option that includes many non-combat options for their mandatory service option. Other countries, including the US, do not. Voting rights should not be distributed at all, according to many of the governments here in East Asia, like Japan. My single point in the m…

Not the draft. National conscription. South Korea is a country that has literally been at war since, well, the Korean war. Which never ended. One way they prepare for a very possible hot flash of this cold war is by requiring all men to serve two years in the military. There are many countries that do this, for various reasons. The question becomes, with sexual dimorphism being a real thing, how does this impact a nation's decision to conscript all or a portion of it's population?

If your girlfriend cheats on you, she's a shitty person who let your failure to satisfy her hypergamy and DNA needs dictate her actions in a way that is unethical and frankly, pathetic. She did you a favor. You dodged a bullet. Get the hell out and do some introspection so that you can maintain the next relationship longer, and be ready to bail when the time is correct.

The engineering chick Cally. Boomer. Yes they were cylons, but not the point. Cally seemed perfectly fine to me. Did you have a problem with her? And that was the whole point with Boomer - she wasn't human. Close, but not, and her character was played that way. The critical difference between Boomer and Athena was that Boomer in the end, no matter how badly she wanted to, couldn't make the jump across to understanding and behaving human.

I'll agree that they aren't the norm, but there are 100% absolutely women fighter pilots, and women MMA fighters. The thing is, those women are amazing at what they do, and it's worth taking a look at them to see how they are different, and yet how they are still women. The problem for me is when they write those sorts of characters badly. They want to show the "tough" and "capable" and then depart from reality, instead of showing a really female character who is still tough and capable. Charact…

There is a huge difference between gender swapping a single character in a cast of multiple roles, I 100% agree. I think swapping the whole cast, or restricting a cast to one gender artificially, is a key hint that the people you have working on your movie are untalented hacks.

I kinda disagree with your opinion of gender in Battlestar. The only particularly masculine female characters were Starbuck and the cyclons, and the cylons are not really male or female... the whole point was that they were not human, even if they were very close to being human... they were wrong in some ways. Starbuck was very much what I'd expect from a woman who was being successful as a fighter pilot. She had her masculine shell, and yet had parts of her personality that were very feminine.

Star Trek was a good reboot. So was the Clooney/Pitt Ocean's 11. Zootopia was an amazing reboot of 48 Hours. Reboots get done well. Gender swaps get done well sometimes too, lile Starbuck in Battlestar Galactica. But when they're done badly, the standard response to poor reception is to claim sexism, and to be frank, it's insulting. There have been women in heist and con movies as long as I've been alive. There's nothing standing in the way of a good female-cast heist movie, except bad moviemaki…

I agree with you, and I think there's another layer there of ethics. I think the sex offender registry as it exists and is used is horrible.

She’s required to register as a sex offender for the rest of her life. I strongly disagree with either men or women being required to register as sex offenders for something like this. A 17 year old (especially one approaching 18) and an 18 year old shouldn't mark such a huge distinction in law. Oooh. That's a good question.

Weird question. Let's assume that a guy went on on one tinder date with a nutcase. She gets pregnant, is on drugs, and take the guy to court where a paternity test reveals that it's not his kid at all. But the guy has a great job, good family that live close by, and could reasonably be expected to be an amazing single dad. So, does the kid's need for a stable home, free of BS, trump the man's right not to pay for or raise a child that isn't his?

Everyone's opinion is exactly that. Since there haven't been any peer-reviewed articles published in reputable journals, we're all going on untested hypotheses we've developed from talking to the people around us. But I think making an empirical case for Rogue One being the best Star Wars movie to date is impossible. Empire and A New Hope definitely beat it out by a lot.

I can understand why bother. But the question becomes, why should society help if the person isn't going to turn around and help back?

I think the thing that really resonated with me is that my brother has never had a summer vacation with his daughter.

Maybe it seems silly, but prostitution is way more honest than trading sex for favors. It's one of the reasons marriage grosses me out. 95% of successful marriages survive because they are exactly trading favors for sex. I'm not saying that there aren't theoretical true love marriages, I'm just saying those are the extreme minority.

Cut them 100% out of your life. Block on social media, don't talk to them ever directly. Never be alone with them in a room. If you ever have to communicate with them directly, and cannot do it through a third party, insist that an authority figure be there for mediation. The thing is, it protects you.

That would be the implication of "She casually mentions that rhaegar married lyanna in a secret ceremony" --- which implies that Jon is Ned's sister's son, and Ned claimed him as his bastard in order to hide that he is Rhargar's son. If he were Rhygar's son, Rob would have him immediately put to death, even as a baby. But Ned's honor can take the hit of fathering a bastard in order to protect his sister's son.

It depends. There are some excellent athlete role models, and basically any professional athlete is a great role model in the right context. The problem is, no one is perfect. Everyone has things that shouldn't be copied by others looking to excel. It's really hard to find a good role model. And it's all too common to outgrow a rold model you thought was a great guide.

To be fair - the police are treating this exactly like they should. The statement basically reads as "This is complete overreaction, but if we don't officially put someone on it, and it comes back to bite us in the ass, we're all going to lose our jobs, so just ignore this and live your lives."

I think you mean person, and not position. But that's a really big assumption about the other people on Reddit, so I'm not sure I have that right. The rest of your statement doesn't really apply to officer discretion. Here's a rather exhaustive PDF on the subject. It doesn't really have much to do with teams of lawyers, elected officials, or the officer's memory.

I think there's a point about resisting arrest, depending on the amount of resisting arrest, but every arrest the police should behave like it's possible that they made a mistake and the person is innocent, as in your case. We have a court system that is separate from the police.

Pride comes from a job well done. That doesn't fit the random reception of sex genes. It does, however, come from facing discrimination and conducting yourself admirable in the face of that adversity, which is why pride in the context of gay pride or minority pride I can understand. In the developed world, being proud to be a man/woman seems a bit silly, but I guess I can see it in the context of being unashamed - I am a man, I will behave in male ways, and have male health issues, and I will be…

I think part of it stems from a lack of interest - A lot of guys just aren't interested in being social workers. But also, there's the point that a lot of family law is just straight up sexist, which would drive any male social worker to throw up their hands and walk away. Add to that the perception that any man working with children must be a pedophile, and you get a job that just isn't safe.

And I don't disagree with that, but it can't be 100% of the story. If that were the case, we'd see a lot more homosexuality in Greek populations today. There was an era there where the norm was to be bisexual. Over time, that norm changed. I can't really imagine that it's a 100% genetic argument for that, and has to do with a sociological shift. But yes, I'm aware of the current theory, which is why my first caveat was to say "for some(and I would argue most of the mature adult homosexual) peopl…

Chances are you've had a friend who was gay and you didn't know it. Also, we all flirt. With everyone. If you have a gay friend, you will flirt with him, and he will flirt back, and it will be totally cool. It's just the same as flirting with any girl you are not actually interested in. That's the thing about gay friends. They're friends. The gay part is a rather insignificant descriptor that explains why you don't try to hook them up with the hot girl at work.

I think I get what he's saying, but I don't agree with it 100%. I think that sexuality is really complicated, and there isn't necessarily one on/off gay switch. I think certainly, for some(and I would argue most of the mature adult homosexual) people, there is a "no choice" on switch that was flipped at birth. But I think that for many others, there's a failure to fit into the gender norm, or a forced social isolation, or parental issues, or.... a combination of a million psychological and socio…

I'm a big fan of being honest, but I know that it probably doesn't get me laid as much as other strategies. But I never have anyone feeling like they were misled. I just establish rules up front. If they don't like my rules, then they're free to not have sex with me.

But I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt and hope that they grow and learn more about the community they want to participate in. But it's certainly true that there are those that really couldn't be bothered to learn anything about the community.

As a suburban white male who had a court situation where the court had a strong possibility of being racially biased, assumption of guilt because of trial, and attempts at evidence tampering, it's really easy to not think about it until it happens to you or someone close to you.

Still don't. If I'm not having sex with someone, then why do I care? If they turn me off because I don't think they're safe, then they lose out. Who cares? It's not like there aren't more fish in the sea. The biggest problem that I see with your argument is that it's gendered. The second biggest problem is that you're conflating two different ideas - women (outside of direct prostitution) who use sex for financial gain, and sluts who like fucking.

I don't think so. It's ok to not want to have sex with sluts(of either gender) due to safety concerns. It's ok to dislike cheaters. But promiscuity in and of itself isn't really something that is anyone's business but their own (unless of course, you're having sex with them, and that's a health issue, and covered in my earlier statement.)

Do you really think that the bar was liable for a million dollars plus the loss of business from the forced closure? It also sounds like it forced a rebranding and possibly a change of management. The problem is there's a level of intoxication that's totally acceptable as long as you don't operate heavy machinery. Also, it's impossible for a busy bar employee to judge the inebriation of the people in this area short of making everyone blow a breathalyzer before ordering.

I think for professional sports, the harder standard will be adopted, regardless of what I think should be adopted, because people want to watch the best, the hardest, the farthest, the fastest. For military applications, you want the best soldier, regardless of gender. It just so happens that for the majori…

Because that would discourage women's participation in sport. The reason why we have a two-tiered system is because we are physiologically different, and that leads to women and men having different advantages or disadvantages. What we have right now is a system that, at the amateur level, often separates gender, but at the professional level would welcome women that can perform. As much as a woman on a major sports team would be a shocker and a controversy among some people, it would be a spect…

Nope. If you want equality, earn your spot. Professions like sports and the military take the best they can get. Danica Patrick didn't have standards lowered for her. Neither did Manon Rhéaume. I don't want the standards for the SEALs lowered to allow women. I want the women who can meet those high standards become SEALs. Anything else would be ridiculous.

I laughed at the bit before that, about professional sports lowering standards.

You're not. I had a really fun time bringing my black helmet into court when the person who hit me had said that it was red.

Title II Outlawed discrimination based on race, color, religion or national origin in hotels, motels, restaurants, theaters, and all other public accommodations engaged in interstate commerce; exempted private clubs without defining the term "private." _ but I get your point. This would probably qualify as a theater, and hence public.

I'm pretty sure, if you're a private entity, charging a different ethnic group more would still be legal.

The problem is, when shit like this happens, you inevitably have to lawyer up, and get pulled between what you'd like to do, what would be right to do, and what's legally feasable to do.

How many times have you heard men say that they cant go to a park by themselves because it makes them look like a pedo? Or more to this specific point, how many times have you listened to Michael Jackson's Billy Jean on the radio?

If it's optional, it's still an option, and a manipulative woman will make you feel awful for even bringing up the topic, and bar you from following through with it. Regardless of when you agree to it, it's still an agreement, and a woman who has something to hide will not agree to it, and make you feel awful for suggesting it. I want to make it very, very clear that I am not saying that all women have something to hide. I am saying that those that do will take this optional test and rub that la…

I would say that raising a child that wasn't my own under the assumption that it was my own would be fraud. Further, making it optional creates a hazard by which simply requesting the paternity test may have detrimental effects on the relationship. By making it a standard, mandatory thing, you minimize both the fraud, and the undue stress on relationships.
/r/MensRights01/03/13 02:08 PM

However, preventing fraud is a thing that many of our laws are based on. We require tax accountants to be licensed for this reason, as well as many other professionals.

Some people don't want to know if the person they trust with their lives is trustworthy? That's dumb. I don't disagree with the time investment. If I had found out after 15 years that the kid wasn't mine, you bet I'd want custody, but I'd also want my wife thrown out on her ass without visitation rights or money. 15 years of fraud is a big deal. This is why it should be mandatory, so that it never gets to that point. Make it mandatory at birth, and you solve that problem.

I love the idea of mandatory. It happens at the hospital at birth, just a regular part of the thing. If you know the paternity of the child (or know that you don't know, and your relationship is still good), then great. No harm done, and nobody feels accused of cheating. However, when the paternity test shows that you're not the dad, you don't waste your life in a lie.

To be honest, I think the guy in the comic is being fairly reasonable. It's only when you add the context of the outside frame(presumable added by someone else), that you even consider that hi behavior is in some way wrong.

When you're facing 20 to life, I'd say that assumption of flight risk is fair.
