    Yeah, because Americans are prudes and are afraid of human bodies, sex and abortions.

      I’m not afraid of any of those things, I just don’t want to see some old guy’s low-hanging ballsack.

          No, I’d be fine with seeing that. I’ve edited many medical videos.

          Please don’t speak on my behalf.

            Ok, so abortions are better than dongs for you. That’s a progress above an average murican!

              The freedom to have an abortion is, indeed, much more important to me than the freedom to be naked on a beach.

              Why isn’t that true with you?

                Well, you see, the problem is that they all have the same importance. Unless you’re a prude.

                  Sorry… you’re saying that a woman having the freedom to not have her body used by another person, to not not go through nine months of torture for something she never wanted and, most importantly, not risk dying has the same importance as being able to walk around on a beach without swimming trunks?

                  You seriously believe that the right for you to show everyone your balls is of equal importance to the right of someone to avoid an unnecessary death?

                  A woman’s bodily autonomy is just as important as a dude being able to swing his sack in public? That’s an absolutely mental assertion.

                  But dudes gotta center discussions about themselves somehow…

              I’m trying to make sense of this comment. All I can gather is wherever you are from only bisexual men are allowed to have abortions… Sorry @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world , no abortions for you until you want to see an old man’s dingle berries.

                You can’t make sense because that squid person tries their best to derail the conversation.

                  Squid made an observation about the differences of the beaches in America and France. You called him a prude (which is fine) but then brought up abortions. It’s a trend I have been seeing on this site lately (last time the topic was “if cars are too loud these days”):

                  I think you are wrong about [insert random topic]. Why are you so anti-choice?

                    I didn’t call him a prude, I called Americans prudes. Because they are. And the things I listed are some of the reasons why Americans are prudes.

                    The trend is that Americans can’t stand that they’re wrong and will steer the conversation into an abyss trying to win the argument.
