Re: The Future of the 'The future of the..(if any)' title-me
. . . . that male domination is largely due simply (well not really simply, but ultimately and complexly) to greater physical size and strength. This is 'not even wrong'. . . Some factors contributing to the current situation, in which men maintain very considerable power over women include 1. Hist...

Re: The Future of the 'The future of the..(if any)' title-me
Women are not sisters: I used the word sisters in a particular sense, which I assumed you would recognise and accept. I assumed wrong. I'll withdraw it so as not to upset you unnecessarily they know little about the lives of other women outside their own circles, I get the impression that some do, ...

Re: The future of the NHS (if any)
I want to place on record that Jeremy Hunt does not qualify as a cunt, because he possesses neither warmth nor depth.

Re: The Future of the 'The future of the..(if any)' title-me
How the hell am I supposed to leave money out of a debate about prostitution ? THINK! indeed so, but what you have done is to introduce the concept of rape into my original post, which was concerned only with prostitution. This is why you are not really engaging with me. Your passion for female emp...

Re: The Future of the 'The future of the..(if any)' title-me
Rape involves lack of consent. Why should women not charge for sex, if they want to? I'm not denying the effects on many participants in the sex industry, nor am I defending trafficking, nor so many of the circumstances which lead to prostitution, but if a person consents to sex, without coercion, ...

Re: Clearing the way for G4Shambles?
Apparently the civil service has only just noticed that the police don't always record reported crimes properly. Usual inspections of police regional HQWs give a few weeks notice, allowing the forces to get their records up to snuff. This has been not a worry for previous govts, of whatever shade of...

Clearing the way for G4Shambles?
The police have had their budgets cut across the country. This follows a steady process, over many years, of 'farming out' to private companies many of the jobs previously carried out by the police themselves. Today there is an announcement of 'surprise' inspections. Familiar pattern of events to pe...

Re: The Future of the 'The future of the..(if any)' title-me
In humans, most sexual contact has nothing whatsoever to do with reproduction, intentional or otherwise. Amongst complex social animals, such as canines and (especially) primates, sexual behaviour performs functions very different from the single function it fulfils in plants and in less complex an...

Re: The future of energy (if any)
Here is the challenge. We want to generate as much energy as we need, for all our puroses, and we need to do so without fucking up the planet. A mix of wind, hydro, solar, and gas should be the way to go for a start, combined with a concentrated effort to find ways of reducing electricity demand . T...

Re: The future of energy (if any)
I notice that the Beeb, (R4) last night, reported the narrowing difference between supply and demand on the Grid yesterday, and suggested that it was due to the lack of wind and sunshine across the UK. They did not mention the National Grid's explanation (cited in the Financial Times) that it was mo...

Re: The Future of the 'The future of the..(if any)' title-me
You are sadly simply wrong, but romantically and creditably so, about what sexual intercourse is: in itself it is just the necessary precursor to reproduction among animals, including humans. In humans, most sexual contact has nothing whatsoever to do with reproduction, intentional or otherwise. Am...

Re: GAME ON!
True, a sovereign government can create money, either by printing it, as happened in interwar Germany, Zimbabwe and other places. ...or by running a controlled money supply, allowing growth in the money supply as the economy requires. (I'll come back to this- I've run out of time!) In these economi...
