Happy birthday Sunstone! The discussion we have are always deep and refreshing at the same time. Thank you for having welcoming me warmly to this forum!
Have a wonderful birthday!

I found a compromise with my wife, I don't know if it will apply to your situation. She goes with me on groups meetings in the Church. We went to a discussion group and we considered trying a study group. Some UU Churches have lots of activities that your husband - or son, who knows ? - may...
Thank you :) in the francophone world, they are called "masculinists".
Indeed, from what I saw, some of them are saying that the Western societies are now matriarchic :biglaugh:
Of course, a society can radically change systems in less than a century! (If you take as true the supposition...
True! Why call it "sexual" expression when it's personnality? Why did I never think about that?
(Oh boy I'm really unsure about my last sentence's grammar...)
Just like you have masculine girls and feminine men who are heterosexual.
So to me the butch/femme categorization based on sexual orientation is irrelevant. Sexual orientation (who you love) and sexual expression (how you look like) are two different things.
And I love how this picture shows...
Totally agree, that's what I tell people when they pretend that feminism is sexist.
But what is an MRA exactly? :sorry1: (I was looking for a shy smiley and that's the closest I could find!)
I know about masculinist and equigenderist movements, are either one of those MRA?
Slavery Footprint - Survey
I have 29 slaves working for me and I think my lifestyle is simple. I was surprised to see how few clothes I have and vast majority of them are second-hand. But however I'm a gamer and use a lot of electronics.
As for Christmas, I got : utensiles made in Quebec...
Unfortunately true. I think that's because people perceive satanism as an "antagonist religion". However I think it would fit in the UU since satanism values critical thinking and use of reason. So it's good old stereotypes.
:) I think the popular belief is that inclusiveness is just a passive way of saying : everybody's welcome! But like you said, it's more an exchange. So to me inclusiveness is active and reflective.
It's the goal of finding common ground and priority values without beefing too restrictive...
Ok it was federal elections? Yes in the US, well at least from my point of view I might be biased, both parties change indeed often and overlap on many things.
:yes: Precisely like humanist shrinks
I love both your jokes and my pastor said she has more in reserve! She said one today but I did not catch the words :sorry1:
Interesting! So I wonder : is that change or continuity?
On one hand, it's continuity, because he held the same beliefs and looked for a place to confirm, strengthen his beliefs. But he did change parties, and at 76 it's quite uncommon.
In other words, is changing environment a change...
My pastor often uses UU jokes in her sermons, but the only one. I don't remember them all, but I do have this one :
Do you know why UU people don't sing well?
It's because, while they sing, they always think about the lyrics and how they agree or not. :D
And what are the funny jokes your...
My personnal answer to that question changed in recent years ;)
Getting to know what personality is and how environment can maintain it, I really understood how people - and even more when they are adults - essentially stay the same. And what is wrong with that after all? I'm not sure I believe...
