He seems to be equating "mating success" with "high number of sexual partners". I don't think this is reasonable.

I don't understand this "taking their passports away". It's not like you're a slave if you lost your passport. Also, you can travel pretty much everywhere within Western Europe without a passport, it's called t

I don't even know if counting calories works. I feel that when I'm in a calorie deficit my body just gets colder which means it is burning less calories which in turn means I might not be losing any weight.

I don't understand the appeal of chess for the average player. Unless you are advanced (over 2000 elo) there is nothing really "deep" about it. It's like solving simple puzzles and you have to think like a computer, simp

So a guy tickles a rat and the rat makes sounds. This apparently amounts to "laughing" and somehow should make us feel the rat more closely resembles a human. What a load of bunk.

Why do you need a window when you can go outside at any time? It's not like it's a prison. If you want a room with a window pay for a room with a window.

If you don't want to spend time on a smartphone, don't spend time on a smartphone. I don't have a smartphone myself and I am not interested in getting one. But banning something because you don't like it is nothing short

Why don't we let people decide for themselves whether they want the cheaper clothing or they want to pay more? Who are you to decide how poor people should spend their money to clothe themselves?

The reason why you have anti-dumping is for the government to protect jobs at a certain sector (and hence buy votes), at the expense of consumers.

Your body is flexible because it needs to be able to move and assume myriads of positions. This means that it is not very good at bearing a load without moving; it has to work hard to keep those flexible muscles, tendons and ligaments still
