6 moral absurdities

I’m sure I’ll collect more over time, but here are a half dozen moral absurdities that currently infuriate me:

1. Men can walk around in public topless, but women cannot (though it’s perfectly legal in some less absurd cities, including New York City, South Beach, Miami, Fort Collins, Colorado, and Madison, Wisconsin).
2. I can say “poop” whenever I want, but I can’t always say certain synonyms for poop without potentially offending others.
3. People can be paid to have sex with strangers in the production of pornography, but prostitution remains illegal.
4. I can’t extend my own middle finger unless accompanied by other fingers without being deemed offensive by many people.
5. Marijuana is recreationally legal in some states, but in those same states, people remain incarcerated for possession and use of marijuana prior to its legalization.
6. We continue to execute people in America even though we know that since 1973, at least 190 people who had been wrongly convicted and sentenced to death in the United States have been exonerated, and we have almost certainly executed innocent people.
