Exploring the Issues: Sexuality – Your responses

In response to "Do women silence their own opinions?" by
Kate Maternowski:

Just wait until the Moslems take over — you’ll be in a burka and not even able
to drive, much less vote or express an opinion. It’ll be more a dog collar or
the lash than a glass ceiling you’ll have to worry about.

In response to "Legal prostitution: Logically sound, ultimately amoral" by
Andy Granias:

One argument put forth by proponents of legalizing prostitution is that, once
it is legalized, it can also be regulated. So you can require licenses for
pimps and prostitutes, provide regular medical checkups for prostitutes, and
put in place other regulations to protect the women.
I personally don’t think this makes it morally right, but it probably makes it
easier to stomach for some, and is certainly interesting to think about.

In response to "Despite ban, Fair Wisconsin within reach" by Eli Judge:

How about this for an idea?
Marriage, being originally religious in nature, should not be recognized AT ALL
by the state.
Civil union should be the only couple arrangement the state provides,
encompassing current legal benefits of marriage like taxation. No limits can be
imposed on a civil union — sex, age, heck, even number of people involved
(although putting an upper limit on that might be a good idea).
If you want to get married, you can do so under the auspice of the religion or
church you choose, but it has no legal bearing.

In response to "Getting off or going down: Is porn destructive?" by Jason
Smathers:

Which is worse: surfing for big boobs and bare bottoms in the Net in the
privacy of one’s own home or hiding in the bushes at 3am waiting for the next
hapless victim to walk by? there are worse things a person can do.

In response to "Greek sexuality myths unfair" by the Panhellenic Association:

Maybe if all Greeks didn’t associate themselves and parallel their lives with
all other Greeks they wouldn’t be stereotyped less.
You don’t see non-Greeks acting like this.
Once people in the Greek system start acting like individuals, they will be
treated like such.
