Shop here, buy this, think that.

There's a vast difference between telling you what pants to wear and telling you who to vote for. Whichever brand of boxers Beckham decides to promote isn't ultimately going to affect people's right to marry or retain autonomy over their body.

I have repeatedly said what my issue is, very clearly. If you choose to ignore that and speculate, that's up to you. I suppose it's easier to debate someone's point if you choose to debate a point they never made.
