Causes I endorse/care about.

[conuly]

1. Anti-infant-circumcision. This is *routine* circumcision, mind. If there's an actual medical reason behind it, I support it. I also will not comment if people do this for religious reasons, provided that this is actually part of their religion.

2. Breastfeeding. And I'm never having kids, so this one's a bit weird.

3. Linguistic rights. Primarily, the right to not be told "the way you speak is wrong". I understand the various reasons behind a need for a standard dialect, but please. Just say "this way is more appropriate for this situation". Forget that right and wrong nonsense. (Unless somebody is actually wrong. It does happen)

4. Anti-Bush. BUSH SUCKS.

5. Pro-reproductive rights.

6. Pro-equality-of-all-sorts (racial, sexual, sexualorientational, whatever, equal is good)

7. Anti-death-penalty. Especially when it's being called upon by people who claim to be "pro-life". Liars.

8. Pro-helping-people-out. Yeah, if you're so pro-life, you should want to support this life once it's born as well. Abortion rates *rose* during Bush's term.

9. Anti-war. I don't like killing people.

10. Pro-Dudley-Fic. *coughs*

11. Autistic Advocacy. Technically, this goes under number 6, but I thought I'd give it a special mention. *special mention*

Hm.... That may be it. Icky number, 11, but it'll do.

Re: death penalty

well i see your point as well, and i will wholeheartedly admit my stance is irrational, which is why i don't expect a rational evolved society would ever sponsor or condone that type of behavior. its just something i feel that i cannot overcome. i would support a no death penalty society, because i know its best for society and we have to start thinking in terms of the whole of society and the future as opposed to the here and now, but my personal feelings do and would still differ.
