[QUOTE=Thlis;44942674]Do you have a concept of humanity?
"Well I can't say whether or not this culture is better or worse", meanwhile someone's getting killed for something they were born with.[/QUOTE]
You people say that and then complain about America being the world police when we tell other countries what to do.
Still would like to know how brow-beating people into making statements on genocide is in any way related to saying "hey people dress like this in a certain culture and that's acceptable for them".
Looks like this isn't a law. You don't have to abide by the dresscode. It is their culture and they are asking you to dress modestly in public places. I don't see anything wrong, if they are uncomfortable seeing shoulders and knees they should ask people to keep the culture in mind.

In America we put people to death constantly, and countries like yours don't, that's fine for both of us. [/QUOTE]
Yeah, completely ignoring the big push to get rid of the death penalty.
[QUOTE=l337k1ll4;44942655]but they're happy with things the way they are, so who are you to judge?[/QUOTE]
Fuck off, tell that to the people imprisoned for being born gay, or the critics of the government getting imprisoned for life for speaking their mind. You dare say "But they're happy" while people are suffering from a cesspit of backwards ideals. All in the name of "respecting culture".

When did a certain type of clothes start having anything to do with the rest of that?

Because you said
[quote]nobody's culture is right or wrong they just are what they are[/quote]
Don't try to play dumb when you have been arguing this for the past few posts.

So then tell me why what our culture does is [u]objectively[/u] better than what they do. I agree with you, I think that gays should have equal rights and that free speech should be allowed. But those are opinions and things that even western culture is really terrible at.

It's not an opinion to say gays should have equal rights. It's an objective fact. People who don't think so are backwards bigots. You can't make an opinion out of basic human rights
[QUOTE=l337k1ll4;44942504]It's fucking weird but they always believed that you can't make your own sperm so it has to be given to you.[/QUOTE]I like to imagine this tradition was begun with the phrase, "Uhh, I can explain."

"Look at how much better I am because I said so."
Saying something's objective doesn't make it objective.
Yet again, I agree with you, but you're doing nothing to prove the objectivity of what you're saying.

Because more people suffer with unequal rights than people that have equal rights.
Because there is 0 reason what so ever to stone, imprison, kill gay people.

They would say that the people in our culture are the ones suffering. But I suppose they're wrong because you said so.

Well they would be lying because gay people in our culture aren't getting fucking jailed for their persuasion. Gay people in theirs are.
Try this on if you are so devoid of any human compassion or gumption that you can't get the courage to say "this ideal may be wrong".

They believe that there is no suffering worse than damnation. But yet again, their beliefs are wrong and yours are right I'm sure.
Gonna get a ticket just so i can sport a speedo.
If i get taken as prisoner you guys will help me right?

Whether someone is suffering or not is very easy to determine. There's the objectivity you've been looking for, staring at you with a pained, horrified look in its eyes.

Just so you know.
That picture is fucking terrifying.
Reflect your respect (or else we'll kill you)
Go fuck yourself Qatar
[QUOTE=l337k1ll4;44942438]Why do you have the right to tell them what to do? In what way is your culture objectively better than theirs? How would you feel if for example, the people of the Gebusi tribe discovered the internet and came on here and told you you were inferior to them because you don't cum in little boys mouths to allow them to have children in the future?
Why do you believe that what you do is right and what other people do is wrong?[/QUOTE]
I'd call it objectively better to allow choice rather than not to.
