Post 8: Personal Opinion

It is important to have your own opinion about different issues in order to discuss to create a better world. So, now I'm going to give you my opinion about three different subjects that are important in this present. Hope you enjoy!

What is your opinion about owning an exotic pet? In these days, it appears to be attractive to more people to have an exotic pet. It could be a snake, a monkey, a chinchilla or even a capybara. Some rich people show interest on having tigers as pets too. My opinion about this subject is actually negative, because I think that nature has to be respected and exotic animals usually are animals taken from their natural habitats. Even if they look happy some times, I think that this craving of having exotic pets is just one more example of our culture of disrespect for nature and almighty humans that invade every space of this world. It is a need to start respecting nature's balance in every aspect of life. Animals that are not used to humans life need to be on their own habitats.

What is your opinion about women in the military? I'm actually critical about military. Nowadays, there is a need to reduce the military power of countries to secure peace and the diplomatic way of solving conflicts. This doesn't mean that some people should not have the possibility to enter military service, the ideal scenario would be that people themselves understand the problems of armies, so no one has to be stopped from joining to it, they wouldn't join in order to their own beliefs. So, in this way, women have the right to participate in every aspect of social life and social activities they want, including army, so, overlooking my opinion of military itself, I think it is a good sign to have women integrated on diverse aspects of society. Maybe they would be an asset on securing peace and dissolving armies, considering that most men are socialized to internalize violence and lack of compassion.

What is your opinion about recycling? Currently there is an environmental crisis that has to be stopped. So, recycling is an activity that could help us to keep earth cleaner and waste less natural resources. Considering this, recycling is really important and needed, governments should intercede and create possibilities to people who want to recycle and draw the ones who are not interested to the idea.
