➑️ It would be better that shops and other things (for example library, bowling house, cinemas, museums and other things) are OPEN on Sunday if they want to.

The good thing when everything is closed on Sunday is that people don't have to work that day and have to rest/spend time with their family. In Germany, most of the grocery shops are closed on Sunday too, and I think it's great; I just have to plan a little to buy my food accordingly, but on Sunday, I know nothing will ever disturb my tranquility

Hello everybody! πŸ™‹β€β™€οΈ


For this time i have two NOTTT so serious statements to debate! πŸ˜› πŸ˜› But I am curious what you think! πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜‡


➑️ Ice cream is BETTER than cake!!


➑️ People should not have to go to school or work on their birthdays.


What do you think about the statements? True βœ… or false ❌ ?




➑️ Ice cream is BETTER than cake!!

No, and I will not elaborate πŸ™‚



➑️ People should not have to go to school or work on their birthdays.


I was born 1 day away from having a perpetual day off for my birthday, but my mother decided to deliver me on the 2nd of May, so I will say that everyone should work for their birthday, but it's purely out of spite 😁

hahahh now i am super curious @Lianshen why you think cake is better because you dont explain it!! i think im the same like @nikikat_03 because SOMEEE ice creams are super nice but also SOMEEE cakes and not all. πŸ™‚


and i think people should be free on their birthdays or at least go earlier to home to prepare to celebrate!! πŸ˜› BUTTTTT i know that is not really possible but it would be fun!! πŸ˜ƒ

Hello everybody!! πŸ™‹β€β™€οΈ I dont want to SPOIL anybody's weekend but i had to think a lot about something that was in the Dutch news so it is the statement for this forum today. But if you dont want to be disturbed by super serious and sad things than STOP READING NOW.


Ok this is the statement:


➑️ People are allowed to determine euthanasia ONLY after they speak with a doctor and if there is a medical reason. The medical reason can be physical (for example HUGEEE pain) or mental (for example dementia in a very bad way).


About this statement: personally i think that there should always be a doctor and it should only happen for medical reasons. If there is no doctor than people can too easily maybe decide euthanasia if maybe it is for example a depression but they can perhaps get better.

In the news there was also a message of DOUBLE euthanasia. So a couple decides to do that. I did not want to read more because it is super painful i think if your husband dies or your wife. And maybe if both have dementia i can understand it. But it is also difficult if there is no medical reason but i do understand it even if i would not do that because you have maybe children or grandchildren when you are super old. And you have to take care of them too!!


What do you think about the statements? True βœ… or false ❌ ?

Absolutely, I think businesses should be open as much as possible. It's so stupid that the vast majority of people work Monday through Friday and then everybody has to rush with the crowd on Saturday to do whatever they need to do because on Sunday everything is closed. I won't even mention the countless businesses or public services that work the exact same days/hours as you which makes life impossible.

I'm aware there are benefits to having moments when seemingly everyone is off too, but I believe there are more drawbacks than benefits and I'd be heavily in favor of more flexibility.

that's so true. in sweden it's crazy.

shops but also places like coffee shops open at 10-11 am,and they close super early. everything here closes at 4pm and on the weekends at 6pm or 7pm.

swedish people don't work a lot lmao

I think here the stores open at like 7 - 9 one store opens at 5am

close at like 10 at night one store atleast i know in another city it is open 24 hours

Thank you very much @Idkbro and @jiijii04!!! πŸ™πŸ™πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜Š


For today i have three new statements:


➑️ Animal testing should be banned.


➑️ Guns and other weapons should be banned (unless you are a soldier or in the police).


➑️ You ONLY have to follow sexual education in schools if you want to be in the class and are ready for it (so not in the first two years mandatory).


What do you think about the statements? True βœ… or false ❌ ? You can react to ANY of these statements or earlier statements in this forum that you like to comment on. Thank you very much!! πŸ€—πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

For all 3 of them TRUE

No far all of them.



➑️ Animal testing should be banned.


- Animal testing is important to understand many things on behavioural and physiological aspect, and it's less bad, but also more affordable, to test on rats and other species than your conspecifics. Without animal testing, no Pasteur and rabbies vaccine for example.


➑️ Guns and other weapons should be banned (unless you are a soldier or in the police).


- Banning guns is not a bann on guns, but a bann on honest gun owners. This is a massive difference to take in consideration. In France, you can find almost anything in some streets if you know who to ask for, even in the "small" city I come from. More than that, the problem is not to possess one or another item, but how do you use it.

If you take some factors in consideration and don't just look at the US where almost anyone can own a weapon, then gun possessions is nowhere like a huge problem. Beside, look at Switzerland or Norway; who would say those are terrible countries? Now look at Eritrea or Somalia and tell me which of the former or second countries you would think as safer. Can you then say that (legal) gun ownership is the biggest issue there?


➑️ You ONLY have to follow sexual education in schools if you want to be in the class and are ready for it (so not in the first two years mandatory).


- You get to have some sexual education at a point or another to avoid some problems like STDs. If you make it "when you are ready", then some will never be ready either for religious beliefs/parents pushing behind or other reasons. It probably shouldn't be as near as what it is recently (at least the crazy things medias are telling us), but it should still be a topic adressed with sensibility and responsibility to avoid having a 14 years old coming home with a bad surprise.


Merci beaucoup @Lianshen!!! πŸ™πŸ™ I wait for some responses more and also react to all comments!! πŸ™‚ But i am happy always when you answer and let us know what you think about the statements!!!!! And @Fleurke too of course!!! πŸ†πŸ†πŸ₯‡πŸ₯‡πŸ₯‡


Sometimes i agree with the statements i post in this forum and sometimes not!! πŸ˜›

I agree with pretty much everything @Lianshen said so I won't waste time rephrasing stuff πŸ˜›

I understand why @Fleurke said yes to all three statements BUTTT also why @Lianshen and @Etienne said no to all three. This time i was not so super sure and maybe still i dont know it really certain. I will try to explain super short because it is late!!!!


➑️ Animal testing should be banned.


This statement is very difficult because i am against animal suffering from tests. But i know it is a FACTTTT that it saves human lives for example to make medicines. So i think IF you dont need animal testing but it is just easier: DONT DO IT. But if for example you can save thousands of people it is allowed. But still i think it is difficult.


➑️ Guns and other weapons should be banned (unless you are a soldier or in the police).


I understand why @Lianshen and @Etienne think the answer is no because there are for example a lot of illegal weapons. BUTTTT it is also that ANY gun is one too much. And you still pay money to the weapon makers so they can make more perhaps. And in my country i think nobody needs a gun unless you are a soldier or in the police.

BUTTTT on the other hand and i think maybe @-Kiki- also knows this that the BIGGESTT problem in my country is not guns but knives and even super long knives. They are used A LOTTT to scare people or even with fights. And it is of course impossible to ban knives. So also this statement i am not very sure.


➑️ You ONLY have to follow sexual education in schools if you want to be in the class and are ready for it (so not in the first two years mandatory).


This statement is also difficult because it is super uncomfortable in the class and i dont like it at all bc a lot of people act like they are super cool and just say A LOT of things and that does not help and maybe it is better if you are ready for it or that you get that in small groups and not the whole class ORRR you can read it at home. And i did not think about the religious reasons that @Lianshen said i forgot about that so that is a good point. So AGAINNN a statement and i am not fully sure.


Thank you @Fleurke, @Lianshen and @Etienne for answering!!! πŸ™πŸ™πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

In my opinion animal testing should be banned. I know it's harder for science to develop, but I'm still against using and mistreating animals for our own good.

I'm not sure if banning the weapons is going to make any difference. There are always people going against the rule. Even if you'd destroy all of the weapons in the world, there's still going to be people who know how to make new ones and it's going to backfire on you.

I think knives are way more of a problem here than guns, indeed. And as you said @Yue_, you can't forbid kitchen knives for example.

No, defenitely not. I know it's super awkward to be in class with sexual education, as some are defenitely ready to get the talk and others aren't. Tho, it's still important to teach all teenagers about the topic at the same time, otherwise teenagers could lie to their peers who didn't get the talk yet about what's considered normal and what isn't and get their way in absurd behaviour.

At some point in time, the easy access of the average guy on the street (or worse: any teenage offspring) to a broad variety of weapons will be an unfortunate fact of life. Considering the abundance of e.g. knives amongst youngsters, we may have already reached that state quite some time ago in The Netherlands.


Illegal domestic production and cross-border arms trade - and also more recently the advent of 3D printing of weapons - will also increasingly cater those who are not even eligible to vote yet.

Hello everybody! πŸ™‹β€β™€οΈ


This time i have a statement BUTTT it is not mine i just heard it. I am curious what you think about it:


➑️ If every person MUSTTT go to a psychologist, he will find with EVERY person something that is wrong.


What do you think about the statements? πŸ™„πŸ™„ True βœ… or false ❌ ?

My answer to the statement of today is that it is maybe a little bit true because NOBODY is perfect. BUTTTT even if smt is wrong it is NOTT that you have to go in therapy. But only if you want it or if you REALLY need it. πŸ’β€β™€οΈβœ¨πŸ’«

True because-everybody have something wath happend in their life bv. A dead a bad experition bulling etc
