    That’s a question i’ve thought about regularly. I, myself, have been smoking marijuana for about eight months and have found a few possible answers to this question. Firstly, people generally fear that which they do not understand. With all the negative press attached to marijuana use, it’s clear that many people will develop a disdain for the drug. It is also possible that the effects of herb are antithetical to the norms of society. America is a capitalist country and marijauna use will create peaceful, non competitive attitude in the user. I find that that the root of America’s war on this specific herb is waged by a greedy government that feels the need to control the lives of it’s citizens. This government is corrupt and it will not tolerate any person who actively breaks a law they put in place. This will cause them to put on a campaign against marijuana use and create paranoia amongst the general population in order to regain control over the people. This is why I think the stigma attached to pot smoking is utterly ridiculous and unfounded.

    This response may be a little late, but I am absolutely thrilled to read about a womyn who loves her body hair. As a transgendered womyn, one of my biggest worries is body hair. I see it as something masculine and, thus, want to get rid of it. Maybe the presence of body hair denotes a presence of testerone, thus a hairless womyn would seem more feminine. I think it’s ridiculous that we are so worried about such a trivial thing, and it needs to stop.

    ‘…A practicing gay.’??? So, using your logic, I can say that God doesn’t want you to be straight and that you cannot be a heterosexual and a Christian. I can say that having purple hair is a sin, or that wearing blue socks on Tuesdays is offensive to God. I can pull anything out of the air and spout it out like it’s the truth. I’m tired of religious people putting down gay people. How could anyone condemn someone simply because they are different? If you don’t think you are condemning them by saying that they cannot be Christian and gay, and if you don’t think that you are being discriminatory then you definitely need to re evaluate your notion of reality.
