Agreed. Some cultural practices are simply over the top.

Well I would generally agree with this line of thought. This would be one of the exceptions. Another exception would be if your bank decides to give you arbitrary charges on your account.

Sure they can do anything they want. If it costs me more to purchase that ice then it would to find ice somewhere else the problem then becomes systematic. If I have no choice to avoid a loss I believe that the store owners profit is not a fair contract. Exploitation for profit and providing value are not the same thing.

I would remember their actions and not be a consumer of them anymore and the other things I mentioned depending on what the situation was. It's more efficent to purchase the ice I need and to cost them later. Therefore I solve both the problems and I make his success the reason for his future downfall. His intent has already been shown. He only cares about profit. So I cost him the thing he cares about most. He doesn't need to know why I am doing it. His action shows bad judgement already.

Maybe this thread should be locked. It's not going anywhere.

Doing what? Saying Iran is a threat? You ever see them take a camera through that country? You have a highly educated group of people that constantly protest because they have no freedom and can't get out the country. Sometimes the fastest way to speed up progress is through aerial bombing. Either they get with the program or they don't exist anymore it's as simple as that. We help the people who want to get out and then we clean house.

I was saying it's terrorism to subject a woman to this kind of punishment for engaging in a sex act. The United States can't condone this type of thing. There has to be a line where this imbalance in justice is viewed as a threat to our security.

Clearly these people are irrational. It does't matter that they are allowed to make their own laws. This woman didn't have a choice to be born into such a backwards system that would kill her for a non violent private activity.
How do you overcome this level of irrationality without force?

Keep what for the fun and recreation threads? What is a fun and recreation thread? What specifically did I say that if taken seriously would result in my being banned?

Ok lovely people

We are all adults here, so I'm not going to delete anything, or move anything...

But from now on, any discussion on the Iranian women, Iran, Bombing everything you don't agree with etc. goes into the world forum. Or the fun and recreation. Depending on how serious you want to get.

Here, we talk about sex and women and if women are judged unfairly with regards to sex and if men judge women regarding sex, and what are the double standards and anything in between etc.

It can be that you disagree with this decision... well... too bad I'm the boss

I'll listen to arguments in PM but here on this thread they'll be deleted without me reading them!

Have a lovely day everybody!!

I applaud your decision. A woman getting stoned for having sex is totally off the topic and I'm sorry I got off the subject.

A women having sex and therefor being stoned is on topic.

Weather or not the US should bomb Iran, opinions about Iran etc. is not on topic.

I'm assuming that you are smart enough to understand the difference.
