    What is so good about being a virgin?

    And we did, because of cultural values/expectations. Let's go into it deeper: Virginity as a concept went as far back as Rome and Greece (afaik but could be predecessors) with the Vestal Virgins and the Greek understanding of it as a pious and moral virtue. Now lets trace why this might...

    What is so good about being a virgin?

    I don't think its a defense of theirs more than an explanation for your question. Obviously you've come in with an agenda, you've incited the christians prompting a response, and there may be some who pull the relativist idea, but to group our responses is kinda stupid. But you do, you're just...

    What is so good about being a virgin?

    Most likely because marriage has become a cultural shorthand of sorts for certain cultures, of the singular, contractual and long relationship. Why is it that we value certain things/experiences? Now why is it that these things/experiences are made that way. Its inherently a cultural...

    Laptop suggestions

    Already submitted champ, and endnote/zotero and all that can eat a massive cock rofl. Ended up using the reliable pen and paper method instead, purely because integration with various programs sucked (particularly zotero and its inability to migrate databases). And 2007 took a while to grow on...

    Looking to buy a Laptop; Should I get a Mac OS or stick with a Windows OS?

    I suspect its more a perception thing, and people not liking things moving/changing from one edition to the next. I think the move from 2000 -> xp was actually the first incarnation of the mainstream population actually engaging with the computer. Personally, the aesthetic changes going from...

    Your Pc?

    They wouldn't have systems with those specs for those activities, it'd be more on CPU cycles, not top of the range video cards. Rendering, memory and space are the problems with multimedia, not being able to play Crysis with all settings set to "Fucking Retard"
