• In the current society the most common idea is that if you want to achieve more, you have to work harder. Taking on more work, working overtime, sleep less than the recommended 8 hours a night, etc. However, in this debate I'm going to argue there is in more than 50% of the…

• I'm going to end this debate with this. Boys should be able to play with dolls because it's their right. No one has the right to tell them they are a freak or that they are abnormal. Society is changing and I'm sure we'll see more boys playing with dolls. Gender roles are…
• I'm sorry if I insulted you. I wasn't calling you stupid, I really wasn't. Okay, new arguments. The reason I think boys should be able to play with dolls is because force gender rules sometimes do more harm than good. There is nothing wrong with a man who wants to wear make up…

• Well let me begin by saying the skin of the apple is edible but the skin of the orange is not. Boom! If we compare an apple and a orange that both weigh 100g. We find that apples contain 2 grams more carbohydrates than oranges. Thus you still get more out an apple. Apples…
• Do believe that apples are better than oranges? If you don't think accept the debate and tell us why. Here no one is really right or wrong this is just an exercise to practice communicating our rationale to others and backing up our points. Let's do this!

• That's start with you first argument that people can only admit the secrets to a cat. Just because a cat is small and "cuddly" does not mean they will cuddle with you. Cats have crawls and scratch at you. They are independent animals and prefer to be in solitude. Dogs however…
• Dogs are better pets than cats for many reasons, the biggest reason is they will actually protect you in a dangerous situation. Cats would must likely sleep or run away if a burglar entered your house. Dogs will be loyal to you as cats are dirty and disrespectful. Dogs come to…

• Refutation:1. My point on people being jerks about having their socks is not a sign of me being jealous. It's the annoyance of the person, and the sock causes the annoyance. My opponent is pulling the "Jealously" card to prove his point instead of providing a sound argument.2.…

• To briefly clarify, I would define public as anywhere that is not at home and there is a lot of people around. 1) People are not responsible. The above fact is a highly obvious one. No one can deny it. We all know that if we had a test coming up that was not for a grade, we…

• Cats may be loyal, but cats are not very loving. Cats may not jump on guests and get excited when they walk in, but that just means that they could care less about these guest. This fact leads me to believe that cats do not really love or care for their owners either. This…
