    You know this kinda makes me think that it would’ve been funnier if they connected two cities that hate each other more than just like, dublin and new york, which I can’t really think of as ever having had beef. Maybe NYC and chicago, or something. You can’t really put something like this in texas or LA because nobody fuckin walks anywhere, unless maybe you put it in like long beach or like some random part of Austin or something. Seattle? Does Seattle have beef with anywhere? On the other side, could we connect Dublin with like, London or something? Maybe some city in northern Ireland?

        That’d be fuckin awesome though, imagine the chaos you could just ambiently cause, especially if you made it out of like, bulletproof glass and concrete, and maybe included some self-cleaning mechanism, or set the camera back from the glass a ways, so people couldn’t obfuscate the camera or the image. Could be the move, could be the play.

        You’d just have the religious nutjobs get the thing shut down in the name of “saving the children.”

        I don’t know what the Baghdad citizen would do though.

          I was thinking about this in terms of limbs, and wondering, since pregnant women have more than 4 limbs, wouldn’t the average number of limbs be greater than 4?

          There are probably considerably more pregnant women than people missing limbs, but then again, the women only have additional limbs for 9 months.

              That’s kinda my point. Mastectomies would bring the average down but more women brings it back up. Too lazy to Google but is global # of women who have had mastectomies more or fewer than # of “excess” women (over men)

                Well are we just equalizing based on boob number, or are we also equalizing based on average boob size? Because some men also have boobs due to hormonal imbalance, and that’s even more if we decide to count like, fat induced moobs for whatever reason. The hormonal imbalances at least would probably bring the average back in favor of slightly more than one boob. If we’ve equalized it to boob size then we’d probably all have like small A cups or something.

        i mean, the problem isn’t the portal in those cases, and i think the portal is a very cool idea – imo, the fact that these people get in the news for it is probably why they’re doing it, it’s just one way to get people’s attention by doing outrageous stuff around a new attraction

        it’s nothing new, and eventually dies off, and there are probably also many events of people being nice to each other that go unreported

        edit: also, yeah, showing body parts generally shouldn’t be considered that harshly imo - of you’re forcing people to look at them, they’re probably not pretty, but I wouldn’t call those “vulgaire” either

              If a guy went topless nobody would have given a fuck is the more appropriate comparison, the fact that you have to intentionally reach for the wrong example to make your point work is proof, that the people calling you misogynistic are not far off.

                  Congratulations on learning something new! Guys have always had breasts. That’s the way human anatomy works. They may not be as developed, but they’re always there to some degree. They can even excrete liquid through their nipples in some cases!

              In New York, exposing genitals is illegal for everyone.

              In New York, exposing nipples is legal for everyone.

              You’re the one advocating for a double standard.

              If you just want the law to be “women can’t wear things that make my peepee hard”, move to Saudi Arabia.

                  Is she responsible for following another country’s laws?

                  If an American shows a Brit their 10” hunting knife on webcam, should they be locked up?

                  Nice try, though. And nice attempt to move the goalpost away from your asinine reframing of equal rights as a “sickening” double standard.

          In New York, women have the same rights as men as far as those laws are concerned. There are annual topless bike rides, for fuck’s sake.

                If they use them in an obviously offensive way, yes.

                The person who gave the explanation is the same person who initially used it to mean offense. You can check the usernames to see exactly this.

                It’s a derogatory term used to dehumanize people. I call a prostitute a sex worker out of respect, but it’s entirely irrelevant to this conversation unless you’re just gonna go off on a completely different level of misogyny.
