Eh, I don't get the whole "After a hundred years, I'm done," thing, myself. I mean, if I'm not dying of old age, then I see no reason to stop. It's not like I'm going to pick an arbitrary date and go "Yep. That's the last day I'll be alive!"
I figure it's better to die too soon than live too long. That way you get to dodge the existential terror of being absolutely useless in every conceivable way.
Then pick a date. OR ARE YOU A PAAAAAANSY?
Well right now I don't have to worry about it because I know for a fact that I'll die too soon. So I've not really put too much thought into exactly when "too soon" is.

You shouldn't judge people based on their gender identity or in this case sexual orientation; it's just who they are and not a conscious decision.

If I was dating and really into someone I thought was a human female and they turned out to be a male space alien or something, I have no idea how I 'd react. Would I be averse? Or would I be fascinated? Who knows, really. Not I.

By that logic, you shouldn't judge psychopaths.

For being psychopaths? No, you shouldn't.

Psychopaths != Transsexuals

The logic may dictate it, but there are more variables than that.

*Shrug*

If it is someone's nature to, for example, kill indiscriminately then I will judge them. I do not care if it's a conscious decision, they are still hardwired to do bad things, and I will judge them as bad accordingly.

The inability to consider another path doesn't mean they should not be judged.

Guess I should start judging you for not believing in God, then. That's a "bad thing", right?

Nobody's hardwired to kill indiscriminately. They may lack some of the instinctive reactions that make it difficult for most people to do so, but that doesn't mean they aren't consciously choosing to kill people.

Also what Frying Daisu said. Like Sociopaths, just because they can't empathise with others properly isn't something to judge them over. If they decide to start murdering indiscriminately, sure, judge away, but don't judge them for their inherent characteristics.

That's exactly what Dwarfy's saying.

Please don't shitpost, it lowers the quality of discourse
Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

If it is that inherent quality which makes them kill like that, then why should I not judge them for it?

Funny, I thought the exact same thing, but was too afraid of massive Bay12 cat-support to say it :P
