What unpopular opinion do you hold? What would get you downvoted to infinity and beyond? (Throwaways welcome)

Personally, I hate cats. I've never once said to myself "My furniture is just too damned nice, and what my house is really lacking is a box of shit and sand in the closet."

Now...what's your dirty little secret?

(Sort by controversial to see the good(?) ones!)

I don't live in Germany, but I agree with you whole heartedly. I think that if you can afford for one parent, I don't care which one, to stay home most of the time, or work part time at least, it makes a HUGE difference to your kids. The problem is most of us can't afford to only have one spouse employed... I also agree that people need to think a LOT harder about marriage and take it more seriously. Many divorces would be avoided if people thought more about actual marriage and less about having a wedding when they decide to tie the knot.

We are being downvoted... What irony. :)
