Because it's her body and she can do whatever she wants with it.
Being able isn't a reason to actually do something.
A reason would be "Because I feel like it"
HELLO SIR RANDOM INTERNET USER SIR
I AM HERE TO GIVE YOU MY DAILY CLOTHING JUSTIFICATION REPORT
AS WE ALL KNOW WE ALL HAVE TO JUSTIFY OUR CLOTHING CHOICES TO YOU SIR
Reasons and justifications are different, and largely unrelated.
Nobody was talking about justifying anything, just the reason.
I never actually asked for a reason. I only pointed out that ability isn't a reason.
You might find more productive meaningful exchanges, when you engage with actual people rather than your own straw men.
But maybe meaningful dialogue isn't important to you. In which case I have nothing more to say.
"I didn't say that I needed a reason I just complained that ability isn't a reason so basically I said fuck all"
You just seem to be mad that people are taking your idiotic contrarianism to it's logical conclusion.
You might find more productive meaningful exchanges, when you stand by what you're saying instead of crying.
You're adorable.
I know, you're stupid
OMG Stop! You're too funny! It's like I'm in middle school!
"because I feel like it" is a good enough reason to give a stranger.
Yes? I don't think I understand what you're point is.
"Because I feel like it."
So in other words, because she wants to? As in, "because it's her body and she can do whatever she wants with it"?
That statements literally means [she want's to] [because she can].
As in, the ability is driving the desire.
But that's not how it works. We're able to do lots of things we don't want to.
The desire might not come from anything identifiable. The existence of desire is it's self the reason. The ability isn't the reason.
Does that make sense? It's a nuanced difference for sure. But an important one logically.
Yes and?
