> You`re right; it`s not `patently` absurd. But it is absurd on the face of it, especially when you add in the part I left unspoken:

> `it`s selfish to campaign for the fundamental rights of countless future children at the expense of the relationships you might have with a handful of girls in the present. The unselfish path is to denounce the rights of young people so you`ll be allowed to give them the gift of your friendship.`

Yes, the `unspoken` part is extremely silly, but I don`t see where Lateralus argues this... as far as I understand his original post, it`s more of `choose not to campaign` instead of `denounce`. Do you think it is the same?

> If that doesn`t sound absurd, it`s only because youth rights aren`t even a consideration in your mind, because substitute any other oppressed group in there and it`s vile.

Hmm, this made me think... you may be right. There is no youth rights movement as such in the country where I live, but then again people like us aren`t really an oppressed group here either so it sort of evens out.
