Interpret the question how you will, but I'm hoping for some degree of specificity.

What ideas/precepts/values do you hold dear, enough that you would (or do) fight for them?

Questioning in Queensland,

I'll stand for love, peace and maple syrup. I won't stand for any shenanigans or poodle shaving.
 
Freiheit! (Freedom). Specifically, the rights of the individual over the tyranny of the collective. :cool:
 
Any steak cooked past medium rare has been over cooked.

I agree completely. There's something wrong when steak doesn't have that dominant and oh-so juicy layer of pink flesh in the center.

Is there anything you'd fight for that involves more sacrifice than whining about meat temperatures to the server of your local neighborhood steakhouse?

A parodyluvr after my own heart.

Pardon me, I have to unscrew my smile.

I absolutely believe in the right to privacy and self-determination, provided the decisions made to achieve such do not infringe upon the rights of others.
And yes, I have been known to stand up and make my beliefs known in the public arena (public demonstrations and such).
 
Truth, Justice and the American way, oh,
wait that's Superman,
Ok, hold on, I'm still sitting, so this might take awhile.
 
Ladies who need a seat. People who are more frail then me who need a seat.

Anything I think I might have to run from. I like to go ahead and get up while everyone else is sitting down. Because then I can bolt outta there while they're still figuring out which way to go.
 
Well, I believe in the soul, the cock, the pussy, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days.
 
I believe that half of all GBers are KRC's alts. But I wouldn't fight for that belief.
 
i'm generally pretty laid back, liking that people get on with their lives their own way - but what i absolutely will stand up for every time is when i see a person of any age or animal being abused or taken advantage of.
 
I believe in fairness, compassion and the proper use of the English language.
 
The National Anthem.
Brides that aren't sluts.
Brides that are sluts.
Peeing.
Hemorrhoids.
Judges.
Meetings I'm late to.
Other stuff.
 
you're in the wrong place. no one here stands for a damn thing.

but then, they're like most people.

when they teach they're children right from wrong, they don't mean it.

don't steal means don't get caught.
don't lie means don't lie to me.
etc.

they say one thing but teach another.
