| "exempts name changes due to marriage" That's how you know the law is specifically meant as a f***-you to trans people. Cisgender straight lawmakers ALWAYS make sure there's an exception for themselves, always. It's a law from the 1920s, but yes - there's no good reason why changing your ... |

| I'm a tall lady, and almost all my partners have been shorter than me. Never been too picky about height, I figure there's more important things to look for in a partner. I think height preferences are kind of a bullsh** concept, but.... I kind of get it. Society judges couples for all kinds of nons... |

| Considering that Jesus got crucified for his message, and that so many of his disciples died horrendously, I'd say today is a wee bit easier to get away with Christ's message than it was 2,000 years ago. I think the earliest converts were very devout to the point they willingly died for their faith... |

"Shariah" is just Arabic for "the way", and from what I understand, Arabs really need white people to stop using it as a scare word. |

| Why would they ever hide their intentions? As far as they (the zionists, and evangelicals etc.) are concerned, they have nothing to hide; they're the moral majority and God is on their side. That's their angle. That's always their angle. |
