Also, as a non-pacifist, lot's of pacifists are quite cynical about human nature: they trust people only in small unarmed groups.

If I only had a brain...
I was answering the specific question of why I wasn't a pacifist any more. As I believe members of this thread can remember, I opposed the war.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Dude, that was way back in the 3rd season. There could have been some major changes in 4 years.
Not likely, however, unless there were major changes in weight and/or a baby involved. But I've read that, while saggage comes with age, a good bit of one's perkage/droopage is genetic. Or, in some cases, silicone-based.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There is a preternaturally high boobage I associate only with teenhood (thought not all teens, by a long shot), that doesn't seem to make it to the early 20s. Which is good, because it looks funny.
So sayeth I.

Hmm don't which of two posts this was in response too. The first long one on the spectrum between pacifisim and support for the war was in response to Kastos. The second on reasons for pacifism was just a slightly smart-assed (but accurate) expansion of your answer. Neither was intended to attribute any views to you other than the ones you hold. I'm sorry if the wording on either was such it could be taken that way.

I know what you mean, ita. It is also boobage that makes it almost impossible to get cleavage.

You could well be right about the boobage, ita. I had pert near no boobage at all in my teens.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

I swear, every time I actually wear something that manages to give me cleavage I go all Willow and keep stealing glances. (Damn things usually point kind of east and west.)
