Two interesting hypothetical moral dillemas
1) You work in a homeless shelter. You are really short staffed, and the people who come to you depend on you, and aren't assholes. An older man walks up to you and drops off his resume and criminal record check to volunteer to help your organization.
You start reading his resume, and are shocked to learn that it is Dick Cheney who's applying for a job.
You have a nice, quiet room in the back, and access to firearms(you're working in the hood or something) and the homeless people would certainly help you carry a heavy canvas bag out back / dispose of the body, so assume for the moment you won't get caught and the technical issues of 'how' to "accidentally" shoot him in the face aren't an issue.
You could use the help. And really, he's atoning for his past sins and crimes against humanity by helping you out. It'd be impossible for him with his finite lifespan to make things better, but he's clearly trying.
Do you kill him?
2) I'm straight. Straight as an arrow. Or as my old persian friend put it "I like pussy, pussy is nice". But outside of little blips here and there, I'm single an awful lot of the time. I'd like to be in a monogomous longer-term relationship or perhaps something resembling it, both share my own body and share in the body of another(and of course to make that feel right, we'd have to share our minds and hearts as well!).
I've long since noticed that gay guys tend to think highly of me...and have long in a not really serious sort of way thought that I'm "unfortunately male" in that guys are kind of a corrupt, perverted kind(haha of course, little did I realize that women were just as perverse if not moreso, glitter vampire porn anyone?).
But what if I took the approach of looking at my brain as hackable, and figured a way out through drugs or whatever to kill whatever it is that *doesn't* find men attractive? Would I do it? If not why not?
And for you out there -- if you're straight/single, and if you could take the drug without any ill effects to you, and spend a few weeks a year or so (ie enough to hit the 10% of gay guys out there) to 'look' for a partner to fall for or something...would you? If you could increase your odds of finding someone else...would you? If no, why not?
