{quote} When men are killed such as in the world wars, the population generally recovers in a generation. It would be different if great numbers of women were killed however. ...
My comment was focused upon the social impact of a sudden change in the balance of men:women and the effect that has upon the developing male youth at the time. The effects of such change will persist for a century at least.

This effect of war upon families is directly addressed by our favourite religion, which makes specific provision for women and children suddenly with out a male provider. The 'lucky' male in possession of more than one wife is supposed to be providing protection to widows and their children by marrying said widows. Marriage is the only permissible vehicle which allows a woman to be in close company with a man, otherwise she will be stoned or something.

That aspect of polygamy seems to have been lost by some practitioners.

{quote} Well depending how long ago that was, a lot has changed in the US, but simple searches before going out to eat also is helpful. For me personally I never found it a problem to eat healthy when dining out, and that was 20 years ago, so I can only imagine now it has gotten even more better with health issues being prevalent in the consciousness of societal trends particular in the younger generation.
Excuse me for thinking that your apps are similar to our apps. We don't have anything that rates how healthy a restaurant is or whether it is organic. Not across Europe either to my knowledge. Probably because it is not needed. Nothing is going to make you ill. Apps or websites just tell you what the restaurant is and its reviews and user ratings.

Why do your McDonalds taste so different to our McDonalds and McDonalds across Europe? I know why, just wanted to make a point. Yes, McDonalds is rubbish food, but even that doesn't make me ill here!

What about children? Do you think it's ok to put additives, especially the ones banned in other countries, into baby food? Should the government bear any responsibility for children or should that be the sole job of the parents?

{quote} Believe what you want. Your people are hooked on "food" and drugs. You have the worst life expectancy in the developed world. Don't believe there is a connection then. You don't have a universal healthcare. Your government allows so many additives that other countries ban. Your government doesn't have to pick up the pieces. No coincidence then.
Your country is so pristine Jen. No one in your country is fat or doing drugs? Your take on "additives" is an exaggeration of the truth. I'll take our healthcare system over universal healthcare any day. No lines. No government imposed euthanasia. A great system you have there.

{quote} About the giving blood bit - I said "probably." Not fact. Again believe what you want. It was something I read and it seemed to make sense to me, that's all. I'm not the one who's had 2 heart attacks. "Safe space" means heading somewhere where you won't hear facts that could offend you, not safe from physical harm. It's a snowflake thing. You feel safe in your country. Good for you. I note the word "feel."
Facts don't offend me when they are facts. Your facts are convenient and not always factual. You generally put forth facts to tear down others (the US) and to pump up your own country and yourself. You speak with an air of arrogance and superiority.

Actually you don't have to change any of the words. It's racist as it stands. To point out that I'm white and make a lot of money implies white-privilege.

There you go again Jen. You are demonizing the US with something you really know nothing about. So let's be factual. Name the additive/s in baby food that is so toxic.

Just because your country and others ban something is irrelevant.

Look, take a chill pill! I asked a question. I don't know if the US puts additives into baby food. Just asking if Pipfu thought it was ok to do so.

Yep, we have a lot of lard arses in the UK and most people are a mess. When did I say the UK is so great? Please quote me! On balance, why don't you find all the posts I have ever made which criticise the UK? How about all the videos I have ever posted criticising the UK? That would take you all year.

Jmn told you that this is not a place to get offended. This is not a place to get offended, so I reiterate, you should go look for a safe space, before you give yourself another heart attack.

Sounds like this is YOUR safe place Jen. Say what you want and don't worry about being called out. It's probably subtle to say that I'm not offended but that doesn't mean I can't question your "facts" and your often invalid assumptions. Again you put forth "facts" to satisfy your own beliefs. And again those facts are not always what they seem or they are just plain not facts.

i agree with you it's racists by my standards as well however jmn has called me a nazi in the past but he is the one using identity politics to try and shut you up and that's actually a nazi tactic jmn probably believe this is the definition of racism (prejudice+power=racism)

maybe i should have said it was powerfully stupid or powerfully hypocritical if am a nazi by jmn standards than he is also a nazi but by his own standards by my standards his just a unintelligent hypocrite and a wind up merchant that likes to play identity politics
