Social Classes
Are social classes good? And I don't this turning to political discussion, I just want to know whether a concentration of wealth in a select few is good for society as a whole. Have we simply never seen social classes in an unabused system?

Thoughts on Modern Diplomacy II?
Hello, I'm returning to WebDipWorld after an absence of several years. I am interested to know what the community thinks of this Modern Dip II variant. Is it enjoyable? Fairly balanced? (I don't expect perfection from a variant . . . )

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

When a waitress does that "lean across you and allow her breasts to drape heavily across your shoulder," thing, does that means he's into you, bucking for extra tip, or just too busy to even notice?

I think this warrants serious discussion. Consider carefully and quickly, webdip, for your answer may verily determine whether I try to corner her in the Men's room for a quick beejer.

*SHE, not he.

Leave your number on the receipt. If she actually likes you, she'll call. Leaving a good tip can't hurt you either. And you should be doing that anyway, you cheap muthafucka

I'm afraid to ask what you were thinking when you interposed the word "he" for "she"...

For the record, tho, whether he or she, boobs actually contacting my body is a pretty clear-cut sign that you a tip might earn you a "tip" in return.

No, stop sexualizing breasts in a non-sexual context:

@ora pretty sure that if she was doing it on purpose, it was indeed a sexual context. The article, while enjoyable, is hardly relevant - I'm not making any statement one way or the other about whether she should be forbidden to go topless.

However, assuming instead she WAS topless, if a waitress hypothetically drags her bare nipple across my shoulder, can I THEN be sure she's into me? Cuz usually that's a pretty strong indicator in other contexts.

A woman should be able to be topless as long as, upon request from an authority, she can instantly identify a man with equal or larger breasts who is also topless no further than 300ft away. Super simple stuff, people.

By the way, that article on toplessness is a joke. The author lost all credibility on whether or not public decency laws are OK when they said, "I don't want to see someone's asshole" so that should be illegal, but breasts are OK.

Basically, the author's argument devolved into: what I don't want to see should remain illegal, now stop repressing me for what the vast majority of people find offensive.
KingCyrus (511 D)
02 Apr 15 UTC
Now, an argument CAN be made that breasts are over sexualized in America and other nations. So fix the social stigma before you fix the laws. As is, changing the laws will not de-sexualize breasts.

KingCyrus (511 D)

Abge, are you seriously saying that we can instantly overturn hundreds (thousands?) of years of social behavior by repealing a law? Are you that naive?

How many wolf whistles would this bring? How much harassment? Do you seriously believe this would become "normal" overnight? Maybe if every woman did this, but the vast majority won't. You will have a few people using this "right," and it will do nothing to change social stigma.
abgemacht (1076 D(G))

Thousands of years? I'm going to judge by your complete lack of cultural awareness that you're from America. You know many native American tribes did not sexualize breasts before Europeans killed them all. Neither do most cutrent African or European countries. America's grotesque fascination with breasts are more of an outlier than the norm. Naive indeed.

The Religious State
Having seen many opinions on this forum, I am wondering about the acceptability of a religious state. Should a state be able to be primarily Muslim, Jewish, or Christian (etc.)? Is this acceptable in the modern world? If so, how far can this theocracy of sorts go? May they make laws based upon the respective religion? How far reaching should these laws be?

Please discuss, and remain amicable.
