Act. 04 - Conversation Questions

Giving your opinions

1.- What is your opinion about smart phones?

My opinion of smartphones is good, they have more positive than negative aspects; allow faster and more constant communication, gives you access to information almost immediately and also you can use  the storage on whatever  you find interesting.

2.- What is your opinion about women in the military?

I think that if they want to go there is no problem, it should not be a difference in the role played by a man or a woman so if they decide to go because they like it, is alright.

3.- What is your opinion about the Chilean politicians?

Very bad, they legislate for their own purposes, or for close people like friends, families or work partners, when their real mission is to work for the people and country. That is why I do not agree with them and their work.    

4.- What is your opinion about violence on television?

I consider that it is a delicate material and difficult to expose, but it depends on the type of violence, if it is for entertainment I completely disagree, but if it is for reporting, I agree, you cannot hide the damage that is committed against another person and pretend it's not happening.

5.- What is your opinion about fortune telling?

It is indifferent to me, I do not believe in it, but it does not bother me that it exists, everyone believes what they want to believe.

6.- What is your opinion about soap operas on Chilean TV?

I think they are of a fairly decent quality, there are some (specifically nocturnal) that have been of great quality, and with very interesting stories, although most of the novels that showed in the afternoon are "cliches" but I think they have a pretty decent level.

7.- What is your opinion about legalizing marijuana?

I agree, but with limitations. I think that the cigarette is the same or worse than marijuana, but with a difference that it has been normalized a lot, so both aspects should be regularised. I think marijuana should  be legal for recreational or medicinal, while that does not lead to our well-being. Our decisions or others should not be limited by no one.

8.- What is your opinion about climate change?

I think it is something that we should take care of it as  it is mostly happening because of us (humans) and we should not pretend that it is not happening and take action on it.

9.- What is your opinion about cloning?

If it is about people,I am against it. I think is a very delicate and dangerous topic, which involves moral and religious issues, but if it is about specific things like organs, I agree because, it  could reduce or even eliminate the waiting lists, making the process faster so more people can live.

10.- What is your opinion about recycling?

I think it is something super good, a way of trying to take responsibility for the garbage that we cannot avoid producing.

11.- What is your opinion about “barras bravas”?

Extremists, they take their fanaticism to unnecessary levels, which often cause unnecessary and completely avoidable conflicts.

12.- What is your opinion about legalizing abortion in some cases?

I am strongly in favor, it cannot continue to be demanded that women who do not want to undergo changes in their life, body, or who simply do not feel prepared for a huge responsibility like to be a mother should do it just because of religious or moral beliefs of another person.
