Okay so back to the service animal thing-- there are two classifications.

One is "service animal" which means the dog is trained by an agency for a couple years and usually made for a specific disorder. This includes dogs that are trained to comfort autistic people, lead the blind, etc. They're well-behaved and calm or they aren't certified.

The second group are "emotional support animals." They don't have to be trained and are usually already someone's pet beforehand. Basically any dog can be an ESA as long as someone pays for the paperwork. They're usually certified so that their person, often someone with severe anxiety or depression, can take them out in public and get the benefits of having a furry pal comforting them. The problem here is that while most of them behave nicely, some people raise dogs like idiots and get their aggressive rear end in a top hat of a beast that pisses all over certified by a few clicks of a mouse.

An emotional support animal can be certified as a full service dog if the patient's doctor approves it. It costs about $200. My fiance has an emotional support pit bull that's qualified for being a service animal, due to depression and some other fun poo poo stemming from cancer. It's worth it if someone really needs the animal but the system is way too easy to abuse. There really needs to be some sort of temperament test for ESAs or something so at the very least people aren't getting bitten because Aunt Sally or whoever just has to bring her aggressive rear end in a top hat animal everywhere.

I think a dog should only be an emotional support animal if it is wearing a proper uniform while performing as such.

Maybe a doctor's outfit, maybe a little suit with some horn-rimmed glasses, I'm willing to be flexible.
But some kind of work attire.

Ours wears a green bowtie, that count?

But yeah the state of service animals is completely hosed because of grey areas and stupid people that take advantage of poo poo because they can't bear to leave poor bitey Pooky at home for an hour while they go shopping. Plenty of people that don't actually need a service animal, and that don't have a suitable dog for it, are getting theirs registered. I'm all for temperament testing ESAs so people don't get bitten on airplanes and poo poo.

This is the kind of thing that happens when someone gets their unsocialized dog certified:

Can you give me an example? Like I can understand not wanting kids at the ceremony (we had a tantrum just before our vows for example but no stress) but the reception? What could you possibly be doing with a huge group of your family and friends that would be inappropriate to have kids around.

This is like four pages back, but I think my wedding coming up this summer is a pretty good example. I live on a 40-acre beefalo farm in the forest. There are electric fences all around the outer perimeter, but our place and the pasture we're doing vows in are inside the beefalo area. Generally they stay away from people but I can't count on a kid not running off and trying to pet the aggressive cow hybrids. There's also a deep, fast-moving creek and several very deep beaver lakes on the property. It's a working farm, full of farm equipment, livestock dogs, etc.

We also live in a legal state and plan to have pot at our bonfire after the vows. All the kids we know are toddlers. Our wedding just isn't really an environment that's good for kids. If someone happens to take their eyes off an toddler for a few minutes they could get into a lot of trouble.

Well I mean no one's getting killed or "correctively raped" for being a virgin. There isn't some systematic suppression of people who don't gently caress. Your grandmother asking when you're going to find a boyfriend and have babies isn't equal to the risk of getting murdered. Hell in the US at least, not having sex is seen as something worth praise.

E: I think the issue here is that most of the ace people we see here are loudly and angrily claiming that they're just as suppressed as LGBT people. Then you have the demisexuals, which is basically code for slut-shaming.

Again, if an ace person is trying to act like they face the exact same troubles and discrimination as someone who is gay or bi then yeah, feel free to poo poo on that person specifically. But that doesn't mean asexuality isn't a sexual minority.

Yeah that's basically the issue. All the people we see here on the internets who claim ace/demi/whatever the newest word is are either trying to fight over who has it harder than the gays or seeing who can slut-shame the best.

I can't believe there's even discussion about whether or not straight, cisgender people are LGBT (they're not). Being LGBT has nothing to do with how you have sex or how often you have sex, it has everything to do with who you want to have sex or relationships or romance or whatever with. And this is really, really not an issue that I'm comfortable with hearing straight cis people weighing in on at all.

But if we don't let all the straight cis virgins in to protect them who will?

...oh. Right.

Yeah unless the wife is keeping all her likely-sharper kitchen poo poo in a locked cabinet she really can't bitch about his knives and whatnot. Two of her kids are old enough to push a chair to climb on. Impaling yourself accidentally on a handy kitchen knife while you fall off the counter is a lot easier (if still not super likely) than critically harming yourself with some dull Klingon knife that's too heavy to lift.

I recently had to teach an ex-roommate that a narwhal is an actual animal, not a Pokemon. He was shocked. I'm glad dude moved out a few months ago because he was stupid as poo poo. He now lives in a car (not his) while buying Armani and Coach and wonders why he can't get a girlfriend. His best friend was some hippie vegetarian that told me that by "eating no meat and thinking about healing" my fiance could get rid of his cancer. Yes, yes this genetic thing that's killed a ton of his ancestors will be cured by eating carrots.

Another roommate was from Alabama and had insane ideas about all sorts of stuff. He believed if he didn't drink enough milk he could feel his teeth getting loose. He was excited to hit his future kids and "raise them right." I kicked him out after he attacked the dog (the other roommate and friend were very mad at me for that one.)

I guess what I'm saying is gently caress Everett forever. God those people are stupid. Don't gently caress stupid people.

I feel weird saying that because these are real people who have existed for almost twenty years now and it feels harsh to say that things would have been better if they didn’t exist and also I think that would probably not help things at this point.

I fully believe my mom's life would have been better if she'd had an abortion. I mean, she loves the hell out of me and has been the most wonderful mom anyone could have asked for, but if she hadn't been brought up strict Catholic and had been given options she would have had an easier life. She certainly wouldn't have stayed with my abusive dad so long, or gotten married at all, and would have had way more time and money for herself and artwork.
