Whether it’s economic, cultural, political, religious, ideological, whatever, what are some ideas that you believe in? I think friendly (very important!!) discussion of these could be good as to understand the views of others. Pluralism and the acceptance of many beliefs is generally a good thing.
As long as you don’t believe in implausible conspiracy theories or say anything that is listed on the rules of most Lemmy communities and instances (in which case, don’t say it), I think the opinions of others should be respected!
Please don’t devolve this into a hot political argument, holy war, or similar. It ends badly for world powers (all of them), and it will end badly here with no winning sides. Friendly debate is ok as long as you don’t go nuts, make sure you give good supporting arguments with evidence!
I believe that men wearing shorts/trousers and women wearing skirts/dresses is abhorrent and a crime against basic logic.
Quite simply, skirts are for people with testicles. They’re kept outside the body in a special climate controlled sack that’s kept at a lower temperature than the body. Skirts and dresses allow airflow in the groin area, assisting this process.
Conversely, shorts and trousers restrict and insulate the groin, perfect for people who don’t have to worry about keeping their genitals cool.
I don’t care if the hegemonic gender paradigm disagrees, it’s categorically incorrect.
I disagree. My inspired philosophy is that skirt and pant usage should be restricted based on one’s speed.
Skirts have a greater amount of area that can (and, I would argue, must) be covered with pockets. It is a sad truth that this increased surface area and pocket count greatly decreases ones speed. This is not even counting the contents of the pockets! It naturally follows that skirts should be worn by those who optimize for carrying capacity rather than speed, such as construction workers.
The aerodynamic nature of pants lends itself to those who must move quickly and efficiently. This is not, however, to endorse hard pants, which are abhorrent. The most holy form of pants are cargo shorts, which maintain a balance of low drag and limited carrying capacity, and should rightfully be provided to every citizen free of charge.
It’s very sad to see people arguing about gender when they should be arguing about SPEED.
