Here's a couple of my answers:

What is your opinion about contraceptive methods?


I believe it is very important for human beings to experience pleasure, and sex is a great source of it, we've done it since we were literally monkeys, so it's a big deal that we can have intercourse without ugly consecuences such as STDs (sexually transmitted deseases) and more importantly, unplanned pregnancies which can impact many people's lives.
To avoid getting pregnant, our freemarket society offers many methods, most of them though, are focused on women only. Pills, hormones, patches, implants, etc. Most of these methods imply a direct responsibility on women and it's my understanding that this issue concerns both sexual partners, so I think these methods should evolve and be more in tune with the way things are now.


What is your opinion about the military?

In general, I believe they're obsolete. I'm not saying they shouldn't exist, I just think the military-industrial complex is a very perverse force in our current society. A monster that feeds on war, death and destruction of what's left of our world. In an ideal world, they'll only act as helpers in natural catastrophies and whenever help was needed in terms of preserving life in our planet, but hey, I bet that's too much of a dream these days.

  3. I don't believe military is obsolete. When I come home I always see militarys and once, the uber driver was a military who told he went to Haiti after the earthquaker to help all the peoples. I never saw the military like a weapon for the war. (but this is my opinio)

  5. In the field of contraceptive pills, there are now on the market contraceptive pills for men, which work in the same way as female pills. I don't know about its effectiveness, but at least there is something that can match that constant difference between men and women

  7. I think similar, is unfair that women have to worry more about the contraceptive methods these days. The responsibility it's the same for all the people involved.

    And about the military situation, I really hope someday could be like that.
