What is the point of discussing social and cultural matters ? To come to a mutual understanding... to move past these things.. it is NOT to define entrenched camps that can snipe and each other back and forth.
I think the point of discussion is to give your take and subject it to criticism from others so that you can refine your opinions and come to the best possible solutions to problems. There will never be mutual understanding, that's why we have different political parties etc, and sometimes the majority is just plain wrong. The # of people who agree with something has nothing to do with its rightness or wrongness. But we all have a duty to obey the laws ie: the will of the majority, and use democratic means to try and change laws we disagree with, because the alternative is chaos. The very foundation of our society is build on this.
