The Editor doesn’t moderate this blog, 3 volunteers do, they are very lenient to provide you a free speech space but if it’s just deranged abuse or putting words in bloggers mouths to have a pointless argument, we don’t bother publishing.
All in all, TDB gives punters a very, very, very wide space to comment in but we won’t bother with out right lies or gleeful malice. We leave that to the Herald comment section.
EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist abuse, homophobic abuse, racist abuse, anti-muslim abuse, transphobic abuse, Chemtrails, 9/11 truthers, Qanon lunacy, climate deniers, anti-fluoride fanatics, anti-vaxxer lunatics, 5G conspiracy theories, the virus is a bioweapon, some weird Bullshit about the UN taking over the world and ANYONE that links to fucking infowar.

It’s not having sex that is bad, it is not honouring each other’s affectionate regard and the interaction involved in sharing a very personal happening which is best for one’s inner being to be kept private, not a show-off performance. Even rodeos are questioned these days! I think it should be called ‘joining’. If it isn’t special and personal then it gets devalued, and becomes drug-like. What do others think?
This Dunedin thing is not good. I once was on a jury about two young people having had, I presume, sex. It was brought forward as rape because of just being underage done in a private corner in a public place. I had to decide on rape for the girl as the teenage boy was ultimately the one that carried the action forward. But I felt that some obligatory sex lessons, and about growing up, about disease, about the life force in us all and its life-long effects would have been better. Sex education when my youngsters were teens wasn’t up to much. and probably still isn’t good, too involved in the mechanics and not with the heart. We might have to grow up fast and embrace what humanity we have left in this our late era/epoch at the Restaurant at the End of the Universe.
