Of course there is going to be a preference for those that will integrate easily. Why wouldn’t there be?

The Irish didn’t go over there and “civilise” anyone so that argument doesn’t apply.

Poles, Ukrainians, Latvians, Lithuanians and other Europeans have come here in numbers and they’ve been welcomed because they integrated. Many folks from African nations too.

Syrians… Not so much integrating.

Edit: To be clear I’m not in the anti immigration camp. I just think a preference for those of similar culture or who will integrate is natural.

Funnily enough, I don’t think I ever believed in Santa either, so I guess your barometer checks out :)

Yeah, fair enough. I suppose that’s unusual in the West if that’s where you’re from.

I mean it depends on your background a bit. I don’t think kids who grow up on a farm have any doubt.

Fully agree though as a broad rule but there’s an age of innocence that needs respecting IMO. I got told by an older boy I knew when I was just 8 and honestly that was not great. My own barometer is that if you still believe in Santa we’ll have the talk later.

Funny story - Our eldest had some broad strokes when we sat him down but thought from the playground stories that you used a condom if you wanted to get pregnant. I was very glad to clear that little misconception up.

khannie , 1 day ago to world in Byron Bay is to be stripped of its nudist beach – and naturists blame ‘conservative creep’

I’m starting to think that maybe you’re trolling again. You see I’ve spent lots of time in America, very fond of the place, and a lot of it on the beach.

I spent 4 straight months in San Diego and lived near the beach while I was there. I know that the beach is not a place for fucking in secret. Sure maybe it happens as little or as often as it does in the rest of the world but that doesn’t make it the default function.

Anyway I’m trying to get back to sleep having woken in the middle of the night so I’m out. o/

I would gently suggest trying not to view naked as being sexual for a bit. It’ll probably ease some worry in your mind that you don’t need to have.

I’m gonna break something to you here that might blow your mind… Europeans (and the people in the article) do not go to a nude beach to fuck. They’re going there to feel more natural in nature.

Naked bodies are not sexual unless you sexualise them, which you are doing. The statue of David is a fine example here.

I honestly have never heard of a sexual nude beach in my life before. Maybe they exist where you live.

Edit:

EVERYTHING nude is sexual

If this is your world view I don’t think we’ll ever agree. That’s kinda messed up IMO.

khannie , 1 day ago to world in Byron Bay is to be stripped of its nudist beach – and naturists blame ‘conservative creep’

Right. Now we’re getting to the crux of it and I understand where your thinking is coming from but…

Because a nude beach is supposed to be sexual.

This is absolutely incorrect. Like totally wrong. There is nothing sexual about a nude beach.

khannie , 1 day ago to world in Byron Bay is to be stripped of its nudist beach – and naturists blame ‘conservative creep’

I’m honestly not sure if you’re trolling or not at this point. We’re discussing nude beaches here. Lazy parenting and kids using bad language is nothing to do with nude beaches.

Like… Nothing at all.

However I still maintain that kids should be treated as if they are as innocent as I was as a kid. I didn’t know what sex was until puberty, and thats the way it should be. Let them have a childhood.

This just reads so… Strange. Nobody is advocating telling young kids about sex.

There is nothing inherently sexual about a naked human body. It’s only weird if you’re making it weird and, well, you are.
