Abortion?:Yes, it's murder, and yes, it's every woman's right. So I contradict myself on occasion. Shoot me.
Death Penalty?:It's wrong. And irreversable. "Some people live that deserve death. Many die that deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too quick to deal death in judgement"
Prostitution?:It's the oldest profession in the world and isn't going anywhere any time soon and so ought to just be legalised and regulated. But it IS demeaning to the woman. I'm undecided
Alcohol?:Yes please.
Marijuana?:No thanks, but I've no objection if you want to.
Other drugs?:... well, I'm not a fan of anti depressents. Drugs in general not such a hot idea, but... well, if they were legal, perhaps they could be regulated.
Gay marriage?:Well, yeah. Muchly pro.
Illegal immigrants?:"There are no illegal immegrants, only illegal governments" (Oxford Grafitti). Immigrants should be supported and loved.
Smoking?:No thanks, but I've no objection if you want to. Preferably not in the same room as me.
Drunk driving?:Damn stupid and irresponsible.
Cloning?:... probably a bad idea. Genetic diversity is a Good Thing. However, stem cell cloning and research I'm more in favour of.
Racism?:Stupid, and evil. Probably the first of the deadly sins in my book. And that goes for reverse racism too.
Premarital sex?:Well, seeing as I'm not allowed to legally marry her, I guess so... Although I'd still be in favour. Love is important, not religious and tax status.
Religion?:Personal religion can be a wonderful thing. Organised religion tends to go horribly wrong.
The war in Iraq?:It's wrong to kill people. Not in my name.
Bush?:Can you say nepotism? And coorporate controlled, and various other things, but I suspec they're all as bad as each other.
Downloading music?:Artists deserve fair payment for their work and creativity. But before Kazzaa, I used to copy CDs and before that tapes. I'm not sure illegally circulating music is so bad
The legal drinking age?:Do you have to be 21 to drink if you're gay, I wonder? Strange that you're allowed to mother a child before you can drink it's health. Other than that, fine.
Porn?:Again, often demeaning to the people involved. But not going to go away any time soon, and basically harmless. Clearly peadophilia is a different matter.
Suicide?:It's kinda selfish to say that it's a selfish thing to do, but that's the way I feel. Now Euthanisia is a much MUCH more difficult question, which I can't answer.

/curious - what do you mean by reverse racism?

Usually racism by black people about white people. Perhaps the most racist thing anyone has ever said to me, was when I told the authorities at one of my schools that I was getting racist remarks on account of being Jewish (which is my race, not my religion), I was told 'don't be stupid, no one can be racist to you, you're white.' Reverse racism is a term for racism from the minority to the majority, or possibly from those without the power towards those with the power - and can go to exactly the same extremes, as in Rwanda.
(I posted this before I was aware of the dressing room doors incident and before I had read any of the e-mails concerning it. I completely agree that what they're doing it racist - and I'm not a major fan of the homophobia either - and I don't think that saying it's all a joke makes it better. If that's of any relevence).
