Should Married Men and Women Pool Their Income???


This is a debate, and I say that I'm Pro on it, but I really don't have an opinion (yet, anyway). The debate is this: If a married couple both have full-time employment, should they pool their money? That is-- Should they keep their expenses separate and operate more or less as roommates? or Should they pool their funds and consider all things equal? This also extends to when they have children. Should each partner contribute equal amounts to the "children fund", same go...
Validity of Racism and Affirmative Action


I will be arguing against racism and in favor of affirmative action on the grounds that racism is unjustified and affirmative action ensures equalized opportunities. You can structure your argument however you'd like, but I will be using each round to argue, no intro or conclusion. Sources and/or professional input are, as always, valued but not necessary. Also, this argument is confined to the US only (simpler, I think). Let me know if I left out any important parameters and/or if there...
The Arts have Value, in and of themselves


I will be arguing that the Arts have no Value. My argument will center around that "the arts" are not a goal. They may help certain people in their quest for a desired goal, but are not necessary.

Resolved: Dating more people makes for a better marriage


I'm going to posit that dating more people before you get married actually helps a marriage to work. To argue in the negative doesn't require that you should have no dating experience, just minimal, or "the less, the better". I'm saying "the more, the better". Dating implies up to and including "relations" (I'm not sure what words we're allowed to use on this site) and co-habitation. However! My arguments are limited to dating, it doesn't apply to sleeping around, I will not be arguing...
Moral relativism: Fact or Fallacy?


Dear Opponent, I propose a debate about the validity of moral relativism. If you accept, I shall take the pro stance, arguing that it is a legitimate explanation for a number of moral discrepancies between people of different backgrounds and/or cultures. The Rounds will be: 1- Establish and Agree, 2- Philosophical and/or Religious Evidence, 3- Past and Present Cultural Divergences, 4- Historic and Modern Legal Evidence, 5- Closing Though, if you have a different structure in mind for...
