I'm relatively sure that just the testes are needed, but I'm not positive. Sorry, I know more about biochemistry and molecular biology than endocrinology and physiology. I liked it better when it was all just called science

For instant recognition try David Copperfield /or/ 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea . Why not just call it David Copperfield under the sea, in the year 20,000. I'd read it then.

Why must everyone attach the suffix -gate to every minor scandal these days? This is not going to have the same effect as Watergate, and it is bloody silly to think that it will.

I read the title as "Gay missionaries", I only got this far before I realised it wasn't the script to a porn movie:

Some say a truly just and merciful authority would -- even for the slightest offense -- impose a punishment that is indescribably painful and lasts for eternity. Have one well-earned exalt good sir.

I jumped off of my back step cause I was too lazy to walk down the stairs and hit my face on the clothesline that is only two inches away from the step. Now my lip is bleeding. Kind of like that time you jumped of a car? I sense a pattern here. In other, debateably paedo-bearish news, I can kiss it better for you if you like. Sometimes I scare myself.

Of course it is a bad idea, "an eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind".
Proverbial answers aside, the purpose of punishment should be to stop re-offending, not to hurt people to make ourselves feel better or something. Whilst there is an argument that "eye-for an eye" punishment acts as a deterrent, I think fear of the law is not a good situation to be in. We should take away the motive to commit crime, not make people scared of the consequences.
Sometimes, punishment won't work (Fritz, for example) and in that case containment is probably the best option. Using punishment is a delicate balancing act however, too much punishment and they feel antagonised by society, and are more likely to re-offend, too little and it is seen as a negligible consequence. The aim is in trying to convince them that they have done wrong, not in giving them an excuse to feel oppressed.
Personally I think the whole concept of prison may have some key flaws, but until a more effective solution turns up it may be the best we have.

Pineapple, because I know what those are. Chicken or beef? Beef, it is so much more satisfying to lean over to people in restaurants and ask "how are you enjoying your dead cow?". Calling chicken chicken is just... calling a spade a spade really. Except it isn't a spade at all. It's a chicken. Living for all eternity in: Ulaanbaator, or Krung Thep?

Sounds like a fun idea actually. I think fill in the blank is really the best idea, we have so much diversity here that it'd be hard to ensure everyone was counted in a multiple choice. Although how would we go about polling it anonymously?

Anyone else see John Barrowman's "the making of me". Because the suggestion from that is that it arises during pregnancy from conditions in the womb, and is particularly particularly common if more than one male pregnancy has preceded the pregnancy. Something to do with decreasing ability for the mother's body to produce testosterone. [/answering a science question with a documentary made by an actor]

Honestly, I don't see how those are really unusual. In fact as South Asian names go they're basically John and Dave. Now someone called Shahrukh Roshan would have some seriously weird parents.

I am going to be way too fucking confused on what pronouns to use within a week.... It's the internet, not knowing is a valid excuse. So long as you don't call someone "it".

ANN COULTER! Pat Robertson is old, so it wouldn't be much use to kill him, but Ann Coulter... ooh, I have the perfect way for her to die too. Spend a day with ron4jesus or Buzzardhut? Buzzardhut, I just ahve a horrible feeling that I'm ron's type, and I don't need a mulleted fundie making excuses to stand about two inches behind me all day. Super power: Shapeshifting, or flight?

Where did you get this, Nappy? I never recall this chat occurring in the irc. I'm pretty sure that was one of the less gay chats involving you. If it's over me, it isn't gay, it's just human [/ego]
