So your solution to sexual books being school libraries is to leave them there in the libraries because if you remove them that is book banning and that will lead to banning more “artistic expression” which leads to bannning regular books and then pow banning contraception. Wow. Now you may need a book on how to reproduce but us regular humans have been reproducing without a manual for quite sometime. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bet is that to many, it's a threat to what they define as their manhood. I don't perceive that they threaten me or my lifestyle at all. What do you think? Oh and reproduction is enhanced by pleasure. It's kinda the impetus or ideally it is. Edited March 24, 2023 by redtail hawk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If putting your penis inside a ***** doesn’t give you pleasure that means you size problem shorty maybe you should buy a copy of the Kama Sutra. There's a reason it has been popular for hundreds of years...While you're at it check out the ancient "menu" in the brothel at Pompei. Human instinct doesn't change with time regardless of the desantis' of history. Denying it doesn't make it go away.

I'm glad u asked. can we agree that reproduction is vital to the continued existence of a species? What does reproduction have to do with pushing gender dysphoria on second graders? Do you have children? Have you spent a lot of time talking to 8 year olds about the different types of sex? Is it a travesty these second graders aren’t able to access books about intercourse in their media center hour in Florida? while your on the slippery slope I suppose you feel every elementary school in America should unblock pornhub right? it’s really difficult to understand the principle your arguing for here.

Orlando Tim Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 7 hours ago, ChiGoose said: Book bans slowly taking over some Florida “According to PEN America, a global organization that protects rights of literature and free expression, during the 2021-2022 school year, Florida had the second-highest number of book bans in the country. They had 566 bans across 21 districts, ranging from the Panhandle to South Florida. Now, in its Index of School Book Bans, which covers the U.S., PEN America said it's listing instances where students' access to books in schools was restricted or diminished for either limited or indefinite periods of time.” The amount of people who don't understand the words they use is astounding. Everyone who wants to get one of these books can still get it. They simply can't get them from school. Your argument is the same that your work computer does not allow you to access alcohol or gambling websites, therefore you are banned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some writers distinguish between a slippery slope event and a slippery slope argument.[2][3]: 122 A slippery slope event can be represented by a series of conditional statements, namely: if p then q; if q then r; if r then … z. The idea being that through a series of intermediate steps p will imply z. Some writers point out that strict necessity isn't required and it can still be characterized as a slippery slope if at each stage the next step is plausible.[2][4]: 186 This is important for with strict implication p will imply z but if at each step the probability is say 90% then the more steps there are the less likely it becomes that p will cause z. A slippery slope argument is typically a negative argument where there is an attempt to discourage someone from taking a course of action because if they do it will lead to some unacceptable conclusion.[5] Some writers point out that an argument with the same structure might be used in a positive way in which someone is encouraged to take the first step because it leads to a desirable conclusion.[6] If someone is accused of using a slippery slope argument then it is being suggested they are guilty of fallacious reasoning, and while they are claiming that p implies z, for whatever reason, this is not the case. In logic and critical thinking textbooks, slippery slopes and slippery slope arguments are normally discussed as a form of fallacy, although there may be an acknowledgement that non-fallacious forms of the argument can also exist.[7]: 273–311 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
