• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

So, why not just make unisex bathrooms the norm? Problem solved.

Also, why do we continue to uphold laws that allow men to go topless in public places while forbidding women from doing the same?

Mainly because we're tired of changing the norm everytime an extremist gets a platform and a bullhorn.

Because common sense. Men and women are different. Some people have a hard time processing that, and find it easier to try and pretend there is no difference.

So we draw a line and say no more changes from this point on. Using that reasoni8ng the US should still have a monarchy and should still allow slavery

if it is a matter of common sense then shouldn't the laws prohibiting men from going topless in public have remained in place? Why change it for one sex but not the other?

Not really what I was saying.

That's not what I meant by that when I said "Common sense".
