Who's leading the conversation?

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Would you prefer spending your life with someone who has been within 50 different relationships, or with someone who has never had a boyfriend/girlfriend?

Does it not sound better if both can be able to learn form each others sexuality rather than permitting your partner to learn with others? Would it not sound better to be your partners first and last? Yours and only yours.

These are the reasons for abstaining that I have tried to impart to my children. My own experience says that the libertine lifestyle creates baggage that is brought into marriage and retards intimacy.

One of the more difficult battles is changing the idea of virginity from being a pejorative to being a positive state of being. The question, "you're still a virgin?" carries such weight in todays society that many who are, feel ashamed of their virginity.

The fact that sexual relations is more than animal rutting, is lost on us and is harmful to our relationships by and large. If one is unwilling to abstain completely, I would hope that we could at least be more discerning, less willing to oblige every base instinct.

The article poses great questions.
