Unpopular Opinions.

Probably been done before but without getting too extreme,do you have any opinions most people you know seem to disagree with?
I happen to think Bono is a sound lad.

Mod note: last time a thread like this was made a lot of people were banned.
If your opinion is too extreme you probably shouldn't post it.

All grants and charity money should be stopped going into africa,
the only people who get it are the warlords, who then flog it off for double the price to the poorest, same with medicine.

Also heard from word of mouth but Im sure you wont believe that nor would I expect you to.

The only thing that can help Africa is education not charity, but since too many people and too many organizations make a lot of money out of charity that wont happen.
There is a great saying "give a man a fish and he is hungry a day later. Teach him to fish and he is set for life."

Important facts like Sex = Baby? It's not rocket science like.
I know it's a way of life for them but if I was in their position there's no way I'd make it a way of life for someone else. To have a child in such complete and utter poverty is selfish.

Well you're not in their situation so you haven't a clue really.

Now that's hardly an fringe opinion.

Lots of people have good judgement.

Everything being done with Africa only makes the place worse. Donating clothes was a big thing, but all that did was destroy local clothes industries in different regions destroying what economy was there.

The pain during child birth is vastly overrated...

Doesn't matter whether I'm in their situation or not, I can still have and opinion on it.

Not necessarily a fringe opinion. I would have thought it was a minority opinion though.

Tis surely true, I mean if it was really that painful then they wouldnt go through it...

Unpopular opinions usually do get some kind of reaction, are you in the popular opinion camp in this instance?

Whether opinions get a reaction or not is not the point.
There is posting a genuine opinion and happening to get a reaction, and there is posting an opinion you don't really hold just to get a reaction.
The latter is what I was referring to.

mark renton

If that was an indirect question then the answer is yes, I do hold this opinion, unpopular as it is...

Unions are a pyramid scheme/scam where the obliging members pay and only the top get the cream. And like everything in Irish life lately the top don't care about the bottom.
Yes I dont like unions.

Hardly an unpopular opinion. I think it would be more unpopular to have it the other way around. Which I'm going to put out there now:

The Sopranos is better than The Wire.

As much as I loved "The Wire", Sopranos is much better.

NegativeCreep

Sopranos and the wire were both crap. Now there's an unpopular opinion

I for one agree with this statement, it has to be overrated, if it was really that bad then we would all be an only child. Nobody would ever decide to go through "that much pain" voluntarily.

NegativeCreep

I think the broodiness and desire for another child out-ways the memory of the pain from having your last child. I have no doubt that it's incredibly painful but 'the.most painful thing in the world's is an exaggeration I'd say.

I'd say being hung by your thumbs or shot in the stomach or having acid poured in your ears might be a bit worse, and there are none of those lovely hormones to help you through it.

No doubt child birth would be painful but having your fingers pulled off with pliers or having your throat slit open is far worse again.

And with an epidural, wtf are ye bitching about?

mark renton

I'd say the pain is on a par with a mediocre tootache... A few years ago I went on a major bender for 3 days consisting only of guinness, doner kebabs (Abrakababra of course), chicken chow mein, prawn roan and prawn jalfrezi. The fourth day consisted of close proximity to a lavatory... No big deal

I've done it 3 times now.
First 2 without epidural, latest one with.
The epidural is AMAZING!!!
The only part that hurt was the pushing - and that still did hurt like hell!

The thing is though, you can't always get an epidural.
