It is an irresponsible comparison. Even in your response to my comment you can't make it work. *NM* everynametaken Send a noteboard - 29/09/2009 06:39:48 PM
and I find it's a very relevant comparison. Were the fears the same? Not quite no. They more along the lines of violence and refusal to work with the black community. But The general idea is the same. "We don't want to start grouping these people because conflict might occur".
But wine was the great assassin of both tradition and propriety...

As I understand it, there are very good reasons why they don't let women on submarines. Tim - 28/09/2009 09:50:39 PM 648 Views
frankly i get along better with women who are menstruating with me. LadyLorraine - 28/09/2009 11:26:05 PM 597 Views
Like I said, it's possible pills will solve the problem. *NM* Tim - 29/09/2009 09:20:42 AM 282 Views
I agree. The idea is not a good one for many obvious reasons. everynametaken - 29/09/2009 12:38:08 AM 592 Views
seems like a strange choice to me random thoughts - 28/09/2009 10:26:24 PM 622 Views
if you can't keep it zipped LadyLorraine - 28/09/2009 11:35:35 PM 609 Views
Correct and yet it happens all too frequently already. everynametaken - 29/09/2009 12:43:15 AM 586 Views
In my mind, that's a pretty pathetic arguement. LadyLorraine - 29/09/2009 01:02:31 AM 646 Views

Indeed. Great Lord of Chaos - 29/09/2009 02:46:31 AM 547 Views
Your comparison to segregation is idiotic. I won't even give such a stupid claim a second thought. *NM* everynametaken - 29/09/2009 01:44:46 AM 253 Views
I love how you disregard my entire arguement based on that one factor LadyLorraine - 29/09/2009 01:48:09 AM 627 Views
It is an irresponsible comparison. Even in your response to my comment you can't make it work. *NM* everynametaken - 29/09/2009 06:39:48 PM 248 Views
Actually I could see her point. She was thinking along a different line than you thought she was. *NM* Tashmere - 29/09/2009 02:57:17 AM 281 Views
It's not idiotic at all. Lupine - 29/09/2009 05:21:49 AM 578 Views
Sweden has women on subs, as do (at least) Norway, Germany, Australia and Canada *NM* Floffe - 29/09/2009 07:38:43 AM 276 Views
Just wondering.. AgentOrange - 29/09/2009 12:42:22 PM 594 Views
well since all of those countries use diesel/electric subs I would no they don't stay out as long random thoughts - 29/09/2009 03:10:34 PM 573 Views
There's also the fact that none of those countries have nuclear weapons Floffe - 29/09/2009 03:14:48 PM 588 Views
As for Sweden, that sounds about right Floffe - 29/09/2009 03:12:29 PM 533 Views
Racial prejudice has nothing to do with envy over who is fucking who. It is not a valid comparison. *NM* everynametaken - 29/09/2009 06:40:57 PM 273 Views
~Plays devils advocate~ Lets pretend... Tashmere - 29/09/2009 02:54:03 AM 675 Views
By that same token, should women also be banned from long business trips? *NM* Burr - 29/09/2009 03:23:22 AM 267 Views
only the ones who don't charge for their services? *NM* moondog - 29/09/2009 03:36:03 AM 293 Views
Haha!! Touche! I concede that point. *NM* Tashmere - 29/09/2009 11:59:33 PM 268 Views
Re: ~Plays devils advocate~ Lets pretend... Jedi Wolf Sister - 29/09/2009 03:23:31 AM 566 Views
It might be true in some situations, but it's a weak argument against this issue. Lupine - 29/09/2009 05:15:47 AM 597 Views
subs are really really cramped. Ever heard the phrase hot racking? random thoughts - 29/09/2009 03:23:33 PM 700 Views
