Picked up System Shock 2 and Alan Wake for under $7. Was going to grab Fallout 3 and New Vegas but by the time I get to them I could buy them preowned on PS3 for a lower price.
He is right, though. Sex can be a great mood lifter. However, it can often lead to soul-crushing heartbreak and sorrow for one party or another if/when the arrangement falls apart.
I thought about it, but I heard they eliminated the noir aspects of the first games. I'm not sure that I want to tarnish my mental conception of the franchise
Not to get into a pointless argument, but how can a video game sale be objectively good or bad? What would the criteria be? A person's judgement of a sale is obviously going to be predicated upon whether or not they found it to be worthwhile. If I see a hundred games on sale for 50-75% off but...
Ha, that's funny. I actually studied a bit of Foucault in school a few years ago. Although it was mostly just the History of Madness. I got a copy of the History of Sexuality a while back at a used books store but never started it. I really enjoyed his work, though. I just started rereading...
Hardly, I would not encourage anyone to smoke marijuana on a regular basis. That is a whole other argument, though. And you are correct, it is not for me to decide. A man acts according to his own will. If other people want to destroy themselves, that is their choice. If somebody wanted to start...
We should eliminate thumbs up as well. Preferring one post over another can cause the neglected poster to feel unappreciated. Thumbs up are also mean by way of omission.
Yes, I actually am. I know exactly what kind of person I am. Don't you?
So you are a relativist. That is fair enough
If you are talking about some type of ex-gay thing, then no, I haven't. Nor have I seen a therapist. However, I have consulted several physicians on the matter and they have...
As expected, the majority of comments have turned to how much this guy is an asshole rather than addressing his claims.
Thank you for giving an real response rather than resorting to ad-hominems. That as an interesting point, though. I had not considered that concept in a polyamorous context...
Inelegant? Ha, perhaps. Language games. But the data is there. The whole concept of minority stress is dependent upon discrimination. But a 13 year old discovering sexuality is not going to associate with an adult identity in any case, so that is irrelevant.
agreed
Yes, monogamous...
Probably less than what is wrong with you. Homosexuality is not a healthy nor fulfilling lifestyle. Many studies have found that homosexual people are at substantially higher risk for some forms of emotional problems, including suicidality, major depression, and anxiety disorders. One might...
You should encourage him to embrace his heterosexuality. Gays are twice as likely to be subject to mental health issues and substance abuse. It is possible that if he has had a bad experience with a girl (or lack thereof), that he is questioning his sexual efficacy as a heterosexual male.
