If you think most breast enhancement surgeries are paid for by the women, you are not living in reality.

If you think they aren't common, how do you explain the 300,000 that occur each year in the US? It's the single most common plastic surgery performed in north America, and 1-2% of the female adult population has had it done and that percentage is going up over time.

This isn't incel anything, it's just facts.

I mean, when women have small breasts they usually just buy larger breasts, it's a lot easier for them to change that aspect than men.

How do they compensate if they can't afford it themselves and really want it done? They usually get a man to pay for it.

Yes women plan around their periods. They don't "Need" a special calendar, but it's pretty easy to lose track of when it's going to happen, and then you forget and plan something important on day 1 of when it's supposed to happen and end up having a bad time, or not account for the fact that it can be early or late (it's not perfect for most women)

If you want to get technical about the situation, it's a genocide. It fits the UN definition of that activity.

Israel is making conditions horrific for Palestinians, likely with the long term intention to push them out of the area.

That being said, Palestine is not a country. It has never been recognized as a country globally, and it's likely it never will be. The people in especially Gaza shouldn't really be there. The population of Gaza during parts of WW1 was only 17,000 people, down from about 40,000 before that. It's not like there has been a million people in Gaza for centuries, the vast majority of people there are either recent immigrants, or only a couple of generations of births (they have a stupidly high birth rate)

The historical crux of the matter, is that Israel was formed because the previous government in the area(The ottoman empire) collapsed after supporting the wrong side in the first world war and the territory was divided up by the victors.

The biggest issue that I have with how people are treating this situation, is that people seem to think that because the territory was taken in a war (WW1 or even in the current war) it should be returned. These same people when asked when they will be returning their countries land to it's previous occupants are not in favour of returning anything that might impact them personally.

How many people is the right number of people?

It's nothing but a pipe dream at this point, and ground bases will still be necessary.

This was my response last time, Canada isn't optional, most ballistic missile paths from Russia and China pass over Canada and detecting them would require radar architecture in Canada

This shit is too grey for the courts to handle properly.

Even with a video or audio recording, it's impossible to know state of mind.

As we see with this case, they can actively be saying yes or engaging with people and then say they felt they had no choice but to participate.

Without video or audio recordings, these things almost always come down to context at best, or just they said/they said at worst.

How can our justice system find anything to be true in these situations "beyond a reasonable doubt" at that point?

I'm not detracting from sexual assault being bad, it is, I'm just pointing out that there isn't a reasonable way to fix it that I've heard so far and we can't just believe every victim because we know that it's being abused (even if it's rare) by malicious actors to punish people that committed no crime.

The only actual solution I have at this point is we should just all start fucking robots, because people are stupid.

They do not need to be willing to sell, Eminent domain is part of the 5th amendment and government can use it to seize pretty much anything for 'public use' but it does call for compensation

 

TL;DR Pay staff more

 

As early as June 24th/25th which is 10+ days away, and even then only to alternating traffic.

 

Oops

 

A collaborative musical performance featuring the Japan Training Squadron and the Naden Band of the Royal Canadian Navy is also scheduled for Friday from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. at the Cameron Bandshell in Beacon Hill Park
