State number 5!
Maine to allow same-sex marriageGay marriage is to be permitted in the US state of Maine after a bill was passed by both houses of the state's legislature and signed by the governor.
Maine will be the fifth US state to allow gay marriage, after Connecticut, Masschusettes, Iowa and Vermont.
A number of other states, including New Hampshire and New York, are also due to consider proposals to legalise it.
Earlier this week, Washington DC's city council passed a law to recognise gay marriages performed in other states.
The issue is a controversial topic in the US, and many states have passed bills and constitutional amendments banning gay marriage.
But in the north-eastern US, momentum has begun to favour supporters of gay marriage.
Maine's lower house approved the gay marriage bill by 89 votes to 57, and the state senate voted 21-13 in favour.
Maine's governor, Democrat John Baldacci, had previously been opposed to gay marriage, but changed his mind when faced with the bill.
"I have read many of the notes and letters sent to my office, and I have weighed my decision carefully," he said in a statement.
"I did not come to this decision lightly or in haste."
New Hampshire's governor is set to face a similar decision shortly.
Both houses of the state's legislature have approved a bill granting gay couples the right to marry.
In California, a similar bill was passed in 2005, but was blocked by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Last year, California voters backed a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage in a referendum, although the constitutionality of the vote is still being fought over in court.

[*]It is conservatively estimated that over 60% of the US adult population (3 out of every 5 people) wear diapers for either choice OR need. This can easily be extrapolated to state that out of every 5 adults in the world 3 wear diapers either part time or full time. Add to this that there is 60% of the population past diaper wearing age and below adult age. This means, only 20% of the whole world population, 1 in every 5 people do not wear diapers at all. Is this the normal people that typecast diaper wearers as weird?
My maths teacher used to teach ISMAD (is my answer daft) as a basic check to see if the result of some maths is wrong. Given how ridiculous that 3 out of 5 claim is it may have been wise to check your statistics

HUZZAH for Iowa!!
May every other state follow!!
MONTPELIER, Vt. - Vermont on Tuesday became the fourth state to legalize gay marriage — and the first to do so with a legislature's vote.The House recorded a dramatic 100-49 vote — the minimum needed — to override Gov. Jim Douglas' veto. Its vote followed a much easier override vote in the Senate, which rebuffed the Republican governor with a vote of 23-5.
Vermont was the first state to legalize civil unions for same-sex couples and joins Connecticut, Massachusetts and Iowa in giving gays the right to marry. Their approval of gay marriage came from the courts.
Vermont says hi

Don't think so, I liked them when I was in them as a toddler and toilet training didn't stop the feeling that something was missing. The taboo certainly adds an exciting dimension to going out in them but I can't imagine wearing *less* if it were socially acceptable.

Again this is America. You can do whatever you want in the privacy of your own home!
I don't think this really applies to gay marriage. Marriage is a private thing which effects people in their own home and tax statements and such and such, it doesn't suddenly make gays start having sex in public. Sure it is traditionally/stereotypically meant for men and women reproducing but stereotype is a pretty bad reason to resist the pressure for equal rights from gays and the legalisations in the past/present show that, as will the inevitable future ones.
Anyway, "As goes Iowa, So goes the nation" is rather fitting quote being touted in the press about this though I can't find who first said it.
If Homosexuality has been legal before women's rights movements and feminism waves 1 and 2 took way then women would have had to fight even harder to be equal.Probably because of a typo but this doesn't make sense

Really you just need an antivirus, antispyware, firewall, keep your OS up to date and not do anything stupid. If you run obscure programs from dodgy sites or open programs you got sent by email you are just begging for a virus or trojan.

It is also somewhat amazing that the fact that Christianity has been and continues to be used to subjugate and torment billions is usually excused in discussions like this one. This should be, for any reasonable person, impossible to ignore. To anyone who claims that it Christianity seems to have, in recent history, made progress towards fewer violations of human rights, I would answer that this is mostly due to the fact that it is very hard to top things like the Crusades, the Dark Ages, the Spanish Inquisition, the genocide of the Native Americans by the conquistadors, and even smaller scale tragedies such as the Salem witch trials. The enslavement of Africans by American settlers and the Nazi's Holocaust against Jews, the disabled, gypsies, blacks, homosexuals, and political prisoners could also be added to this list, as could the first gulf war, the war in Afghanistan, and the current Gulf war. However, these have also been based in economics and political powerplays rather that pure religious persecution, and I wouldn't want to assign blame where it isn't necessarily due.
I don't think a straightforward criticism of the veracity of the Bible has been relevant in the thread, we have been discussing the excesses of its fundamentalist adherents.
In any case blaming all of these things on Christianity is easy but is grossly inaccurate. The crusades were in part done by most who participated for land, wealth and power and in part in response to repeated invasions by muslims (done for land, wealth and power). Christianity gave the pope control of the whole deal but there is no reason to assume the same wouldnt have happened if it was any other religion.
The dark ages happened when Rome fell and there was a power vacuum and are called Dark due to a lack of written records. There were lots of battles and suffering and lots of people were Christian but I don't think a lack of Christianity would have helped, especially since Islam was the competing religion.
Wiping out the Indians was done for land, slaves were taken for economic gain, the holocaust was done because Hitler was a fucking nutcase but not with great religious conviction, the gulf war and every 20th century war was about oil, land, power, money, security and/or political ideology as you have partially stated.
I'll give you the inquisition, and I'll throw in the persecution of scientists like Galileo but the other things had far more important reasons than Christianity, and I'd wager most would have happened without it. I can in a sense see how the more fundamental Christianity practised in places like Africa and South America causes serious damage though, every religion seems to advocate abstinence (which doesnt work, hence widespread AIDS) and subjugation of minorities (including women) in the places it is practised in its more severe forms.

I think that depends whether or not you consider the Bible to be a complete and finished work, or a work in progress as our knowledge increases and new scripture comes to light. As you say the current Bible is not a single book, rather a collection of books.
I think it's quite easy for people to fall into the trap of assuming that Christianity and the Bible are a timeless and stagnant thing that have not changed since the time it first appeared. This is clearly not the case, it has evolved over the centuries and aspects of the faith have appeared and disappeared during that time (even in the last 100 years). Are we now to accept that this religious evolution is at an end, that nothing will ever change again?
Beth
I think the Bible itself has been considered a finished work since the canon was sealed well over a millennium ago, and can't think of any changes since then. There have been translations but since much of the Greek/Hebrew source material is still around im not sure that counts as a change to the Bible itself, though you only have to look at certain Bible Belt Baptists (and i'm sure many other Christians around the world) who claim that if the original texts differ from their modern bible then the originals must be wrong, to see that they consider their translated versions to be the official version. The pope has released his edicts, the Anglican church has its own policies, etc, etc so Christianity certainly evolves in that sense but I don't see Christians as a whole accepting new scripture as an addition to the Bible.
The Dead Sea scrolls are an example of new stuff but they haven't been included in the Bible. I'm no theologian though so I don't know if they count.
-
Absolutely. There can't be a valid reason not to do that though arguments against it will come anyway. Tradition has nothing to do with the argument of what to do with new(or even old)knowledge. Before anything was written the first time around all the knowledge was just the same, it just hadn't been recorded or compiled yet
What could possibly be considered be considered 'new scripture'? As it is the current scripture is a load of texts by anonymous Christians over multiple centuries complied by the church in Rome by picking the ones that suited their ideals at the time and were not too unrealistic. Who would get to decide this new scripture is canon? The Vatican? The Baptists? I think its unthinkable that some new gospel could be accepted by the majority of Christians.

Hey guys, I have been a frequent visitor to dailydiapers for years now, but I have only recently turned 18 so I finally made an account. (Yes I was looking at the site illegally, shhh don't tell anybody)
Hello! if it makes you feel any better its not illegal for minors to look at porn (if dailydiapers even counts?), just for someone to knowingly distribute porn to minors, which the websites dont do.
Clearly I looked at way too much porn as a minor
Moving on swiftly, I'll be sure to have a read

Actually it's much cheaper because then taxpayers don't have to support the convict.
This is not really the case in practice: by the time the convict has been executed the taxpayers have already spent more than they would if they had just thrown away the key.
Although it is certainly cheaper to inject someone with deadly chemicals than to incarcerate them for 30 or 40 years, the best studies on the cost of the death penalty indicate that it costs about $2 million per execution over the costs of a system which imposes life sentences for the same crimes. Moreover, about 70% of the costs occur at trial with only a minority of the costs for the appeal. -
To me, not only do these theories make Dawkins sound more like an Agnostic than an Athiest, but the theory that a creater must himself have been created seems to assume that the laws of evolution apply throughout the universe, we don't know that this is indeed the case.
Beth
The agnosticism/atheism terminology thing gets in the way of just about every atheism debate there is haha. Dawkins does say he is technically agnostic in that sense.
Whether evolution applies on other planets is a good question. If we were put here by another species then I would imagine they would also have DNA, implying they evolved too. Whether evolution (or even life) would work without a nucleic acid molecule (or something similar) to store information is a mystery, one of the reasons finding even bacteria on Mars would be so interesting. I would imagine evolution is like gravity or combustion: physics and chemistry works the same elsewhere in the universe (probably) because its all made of the same atoms so evolution should too but I'm more than open to being proved wrong if we ever find life elsewhere.
I don't think his 'the creator must have been created' thing says much about evolution though, he says it in response to the "god created the universe but he wasn't created because he always existed" argument because if a creator always existed then the universe itself could have always existed, meaning no need for a creator.

What's the saying, you can't prove a negative?
It might be a saying but any mathematician or philosopher will tell you it's false

(it's 100% illegal and I am unsure if I could give more advice on doing it)
This is a misconception: There is nothing illegal about using the wow client to connect to whatever you want, and since private servers are player created software there is nothing to stop them running. On the other hand this does mean that private servers are missing a lot of the stuff thats on retail and are pretty buggy experience.

Hiding them and her 'finding them' is not a bad way of coming out about it. I wouldn't and didn't personally choose to tell my mother because its a fetish: I wouldn't want to know about hers so I see no reason to tell her mine. She did find out however when she went rifling around in the rubbish for something she had lost. Got very worried it was cancer, I told her what it was, she was relieved and everything was cool. As far as your plan goes, if she thinks it is some illness then she is far more likely to be worried and tell your dad or other family members than if it is explained as a desire.
Hide them as well as you can, or wait till college if you think your mother will overreact too harshly.
Never really got this whole see a shrink thing.Some people consider this a mental illness, so those parents often send their kids to shrinks to 'cure' the illness. Same has applied in the past (and possibly present) to homosexuality and promiscuity and so on. The op is a little old to be forced to see a psych though, he can just tell the psych that it does not impact his life in a negative way and then there isn't much more to do or say. The days of forced lobotomies are rather far behind us fortunately.

Epilation, my girlfriend epilated my crotch/legs for me. I admit I was medicated for this experience but it left my skin baby smooth. It has been four days and zero hair growth from what I or her can see (usually two weeks before you do it again). Benefits for this would also be your hair and skin become lighter/softer.
I can vouch for this method too. It lasts as long as waxing but it doesn't take the top layer of skin off and you can do it in the privacy of your own home once you have bought the epilator. It does hurt pretty bad first time but you can do it at whatever pace you want, just go slowly and keep the skin taught.

But what do you do if you're on a long flight, and need to change? Where would you go? There's not much room on airplanes, especially in coach.
Ryanair usually does just short flights, mostly an hour or 2. I think the longest is 3 or 4 hours, which should be managable if you change before the flight and limit your fluid intake.

Crossdresser isn't great but its quite moderate. I think Sissy tends to be associated with 'drag queen' as dressing up far more girly and flamboyantly than actual women would usually dress up. Thats probably unfair for some people but thats what you get with labels. 'Girly boy' would probably suit me best although I dress to look like an actual girly... girl i guess.
I don't think wearing trousers and shirts make women crossdressers anymore, I think those items of clothing have been liberated from the label of 'male clothes' and are now unisex items.

Few months old this one but I hadn't seen it posted and its quite positive
TOKYO (AP) — One after the other, the models strutted across the stage to bouncy '80s dance tunes, all showing off designs of the same article of clothing — adult diapers.Japan has one of the world's most rapidly aging societies, and the fashion show Thursday proved the country's diaper producers are intent on keeping the elderly clean and dry.
"Diapers are something that people don't want to look at," said Kiyoko Hamada of the Aging Lifestyle Research Center, a leading organizer of the show.
"But if you make them attractive, then people can learn about them more easily," she said.
Indeed, adult diapers are an increasingly common item in Japan, home to one of the world's longest average lifespans. More than 20% of the population is over 65, and the country is forecast to have the globe's largest number of centenarians — 1 million — by 2050, the U.N. says.
That means a booming market for adult diapers.
The Nikkei, Japan's leading business newspaper, conducted a survey this week that showed sales of adult diapers have more than doubled over the past decade, reaching an estimated $500 million this year.
While that's good news for manufacturers, the fashion show Thursday showed there's still a lot of uneasiness in Japan about this sometimes unseemly side of aging.
Before the models took over, players at the theater in downtown Tokyo acted out skits instructing viewers how to tell when elderly loved ones need diapers, how to convince them to put them on and how to properly use them.
In one skit, an elderly man shook his head in dismay after his wife pointed out that he wet the bed overnight again.
"Ah, maybe the loose-fitting diapers I use during the day aren't good to use at night," he concluded, leading to a discussion about well-padded nappies made especially for nighttime use.
Like many events in Japan, the show was heavy on detailed information, showing how certain types of diapers suit the bedridden, such as models that can be wrapped around the midsection. Pants-like slip-on diapers, on the other hand, are more suitable for active oldsters.
"A lot of people make mistakes when choosing diapers," said Hamada. "We can make it so people no longer feel uneasy about taking care of old people."
The fashion show itself was half camp, half instruction.
Speakers blared oldie hits such as "Relax" by Frankie Goes to Hollywood as models jaunted on the stage with diapers pulled on over black tights.
Each model held a number to designate the model of the diaper. Some of the models, all volunteers, playfully shook their hips on the stage.
The crowd of several hundred people included diaper manufacturers, nursing home workers and doctors.
Nursing home caretakers Mitsuru and Aya Habuka watched with rapt attention, exclaiming when diaper models they hadn't seen before were displayed on stage.
"It was great to see so many different types of diapers all in one showing," gushed Aya Habuka, 26. "I learned a lot. This is the first time that diapers are being considered as fashion."
Shame its just in Japan, but thats where having a very ageing population gets you

Its been a while as I prefer bulkier or noisier brands but I rate them quite highly. I ordered a multipack of the night time version and got about 6 packs for about £35ish pounds, easily the best value of any of the diapers I have found in the UK. They were quite good quality, good capacity and plain white with blue tabs which reminds me of the Pampers of old I had as a kid. My only problem I had was the tapes are kinda stiff and the sharp corners dug into my legs at times but thats a minor issue as long as you position them right.
The delivery I think was discrete, not mentioning incontinence or diapers on the parcel they come in.

I wear at night but don't like wetting laying down because I worry about leaks too much sleep
[Uk] Other Diapers I Should Try

I am fond of Indaslip, which compete with Tenas on absorbancy, have a nice aloe scent and, most importantly, are the most crinkly diaper I have been able to find in the UK. I used to get from Woodstock Pharmacy (who sent me a sample of them when I bought Tenas) but try http://www.bmsupplies.co.uk/p-774-indaslip-maxi-3-all-in-one-nightime-diaper.aspx as they look cheaper.
