   You don't get to decide if it's a problem for anyone but yourself.   
      
   Everything that's wrong with your entire world view is on display in this   
   bullshit you just wrote:  "traditionally," "we."  First, "tradition" is not a   
   good reason to do anything.  Second, you're demonstrating your coercive   
   collectivism.  You're as bad as any collectivist left-winger.  You want to   
   *compel* people to adhere to your values.  Well, fuck you.
