Knock yourself out. Jump off a bridge? Why not? It's not, nor should it ever be, up to the state or anyone else to tell you how to live your life. The bottom line is a stretch. I understand the sentiment, but it is literally part of the states purpose to determine how it is acceptable to live our lives. Thats how we get rule of law. Be being part of a society you sacrifice certain freedoms (extreme examples being stuff like the freedom to kill people) for certain protections or other freedoms (the freedom to sleep at night without worrying too much about whether youll be murdered in your sleep). <cite>Glob posted [p:971125599] in Should bod...

I was only taking issue with the idea that the state has no place telling us how to live our lives, given that its actually part of their role. <cite>Glob posted [p:971125802] in Should bod...

I understand the sentiment, but it is literally part of the states purpose to determine how it is acceptable to live our lives. Thats how we get rule of law. Be being part of a society you sacrifice certain freedoms (extreme examples being stuff like the freedom to kill people) You're not quite on the main point. Those sacrificed freedoms (killing, assault, etc) are freedoms that infringe on bodily autonomy, just on a personal rather than societal level. They mean issues like suicide, assisted suicide, drug legality, things that ultimately only have physical effects on the person doing it. --- http://guidesmedia.ign.com/guides/9846/images/slowpoke.gif https://i.imgur.com/M8h2ATe.png https://i.imgur.com/6ezFwG1.png <cite>DrizztLink posted [p:971125803] in Should bod...

Drug legality is a gray area in that regards. Unless the state is providing 'hard' drugs to addicts, letting people freely and wantonly do hard drugs can lead to an increase in crime rates because people are trying to afford their next fix. In theory, yes, you should be able to do the drugs you want, but without the proper resources to assist those who do that, you'll quickly affect other people's "bodily autonomy" <cite>MachineJaipur posted [p:971125848] in Should bod...
