I do not think there is any scope for comparison between the two......eg politics and economics perhaps can be compared. And btw i was not rediculing u at all, i was simply surpeised that no one was writing anything. I saw a post in which vivid details of sex was written and there were so many views and replies....same in the case of political discussions. To me sex is "still" a personal thing not to be discussed in open (because i do not see the point of doing that). If just for fun, go and watch in movies or st. I am not saying we should not it is fun, time pass and sometime informative (for protection against HIV and STDs, i guess) as well. On the other hand, politics need to be discussed, especially in democracy. That will make more people aware of the politics of country and share views. This i believe will strengthen democracy, the discussion about politics i mean. I hope this reply is fine with mcmxc "intended" debate.
