In and of itself this is not shameful, merely a common human failing, but to ignore it... to do nothing about it? That is shameful.


That's the thing.

We all have prejudices. I have prejudices, you have prejudices. We all do. I acknowledge them, question them, and try to act on doing something about them.

Acknowledging prejudices and refusing to do anything about them is bad. Refusing to even acknowledge them despite clear evidence of their existence is just fucked up.

Awright people. Let's remember that whichever 'side' you find yourself on in these discussions - ANY of them on these forums - there are people and players on the other side of them as well.

And whether or not you agree with them, whether you feel you or they are in the right or wrong, we STILL need to at least attempt to be civil in our discourse.

This means we do not refer to people as a thing. They are people. They are as deserving of consideration and civility as anyone else here, regardless of gender, preference, religion, color, political standing, or any other categorization anyone can come up with.

So please. Regardless of what you're arguing, for OR against, show some consideration to one another. You don't have to like one another, or even respect one another. But your responses DO have to have some limitations to them, by forum rules.

Cant date a transsexual, I'd feel like I'm being lied to or was lied to the whole time. Like buying the Happy Meal and realizing they left the toy out, I mean c'mon!
