Re: New upskirting law blocked by Tory MP
But do apparently dictate when someone else's opinion has validity or not....
I think that using those analogies showed how utterly flawed your thinking on the issue was - when put in practical example rather than political theory it comes off as even more abhorrent.
Your own words indicate that you are comfortable with half the population having no say on this debate so why would it be different for any other issue? It comes off as utterly repellent to me.
Also, it wreaks of complete hypocrisy ; Damien started this thread and seems to be in favor of the proposal...I don't see you telling him that his opinion is not valid due to his lack of risk / exposure (given that the likely chance of someone sticking a camera up his skirt is zero, too). Of course, he agrees with your thinking so you won't say anything to him. Double standard much?
Even worse...you see some reason to find a flaw with someone based on their viewpoint being different to yours. So, in Paul's case it is because he is a guy / doesn't wear skirts etc.
How is that any different to people who wanted control through the immigration debate (in the EU referendum) being labelled as "racists" or "xenophobes"? If you want, you could go through all the isms, if you like? Or just continue to demean and belittle someone else and their opinion to masquerade your own inferiority complex.
In fact, perhaps I should even be weary of voicing an opinion on the issue altogether for today only I went to church and was wearing a pencil skirt. You can't really take an upskirt of my groin in it as it is so tight so maybe I need stop voicing an opinion as there is clearly little to no chance of me being at risk of voyeurism - especially at church. At least until I wear a much loser skirt / dress.
Your faux outrage comes off as attention seeking, but telling others that their opinion does not matter because it does not effect them is a logical fallacy, and then some. Claiming that they have some sort of ism is ironic (be it sexism / racism etc) is ironic, because your behavior here is showing far more signs of a pathological disorder as detailed by most psychologists / psychiatrists than anyone else here.
Now feel free to tell me to shut up, as my opinion is irrelevant to you, too.
