[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: thanks everyone. 
I should note it’s not that I want to debate but I just want to
talk about various topics and sometimes philosophical ones which can get a bit passionate. I like people who are cultured and not just one dimensional. [/quote]

No one wants to talk about abortion rights, immigration reform, etc with a playground acquaintance. Nope.[/quote]

New Poster. I'm a SAHM. I haven't worked in 10 years but I went to a good college and I have a master's degree in history that I don't use (thought I'd be heading for a job in academia but that didn't work out and I left my phd program before the dissertation phase).

Anyway, I love to talk about these things with friends. But I agree, they're not topics to bring up with people you don't know very well. That's why playground talk tends to be small talk. You keep it light because you don't want to rub anyone the wrong way. And we talk about kid stuff so much because it's the one thing you know you'll definitely have in common.

OP, it sounds like you just need to deepen your friendships. Or find friends that do like to talk about current events and debate issues. We exist out there in the world![/quote]
