Thank you Hiding, this is what I was getting at :-). In response to Partyman, I understand that marrying a former client is rare; that being said, you don't need to mary someone to have emotions for or even love someone.

It's like this; if a person has a contagious disease, you can feel all the sympathy in the world for them, but you still have to quarantine them. Apply this logic to truly dangerous criminals and you'll see where I'm going. Note that I'm not a supporter of many of the current laws, from the laws...

Good point. More good points :-). Didn't know that about Nina Hartley, thanks. Definitely. Along that line, in the OP of this thread, I only linked to one of the polyamory forums where I had brought up this thread, because there wasn't much of a response in the other one. There has now been...

I think that's reasonable. However, the fact that the relationship can change from one to another is a hopeful sign, in my view, and underlines the possibility that love can bloom from a "working relationship".

I agree.

I doubt any kindergartner could do that type of finger painting :-p. If a person wants to paint themselves, I have no objection. A picture can tell a story too, and I've always been one for stories :-).

Personally, my favourites are the ones she did on the 29th of January ;-).

Now we're talking :-). As the old saying goes, "one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter". Both can be thought of as part of a resistance movement. On the other side, you have state suppression, which is frequently far more brutal. When you add in the fact that some terrorist acts...

I imagine the powers that be are doing the same. If you're part of the truth movement, then you'd think they did the same thing on 9/11, blaming a certain former CIA asset and the organization that the CIA created for him to lead. As with Oswald, it presents a simple picture that is easily...

Thanks for all of the responses everyone. Going to make a specific comment to Tease's last comment... I definitely agree that terms like "viable alternative" and "here by choice" are highly subjective. I personally feel that words are generally like water; analyze them long enough and most of...

I'm not saying that the Anonymous organization is perfect, but as far as I know, no one has ever died from anything that Anonymous has done. The same can't be said of the organizations that anonymous has protested against. Have you ever heard the term War Is a Racket? If not, might want to take...

I think the moral of the story to this thread is that communication does wonders to explain people's actions when the person who did the action is doing the communicating. That and some people have violent fantasies that most hope would never be acted upon -.-.

Laugh :-). Much more important than that.. without it, humanity would have ceased to exist a long time ago.

Fair enough, but I'm interesting in knowing if you read the original version or the one with "Nice guys finish first" chapter. You really want to kill my tick removal example I see, laugh :-). I said long ago that it simply seemed to be an apt example, but it's clearly not the only one. It's...

I'm surprised that the BBC would publish this article from the creator of V for Vendetta. Nice to know that the mass media isn't yet completely controlled... ************************** On Saturday protests are planned across the world against Acta - the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement. The...
