Backyards
‘Backyard’ is one of those words that make a lot of urbanists full libtard. It is a taboo word and anyone who uses it is automatically an idiot and not worth listening to. *1
A backyard often comes up in discussions about high density living, and why it is necessary or not. Many people find it hard to imagine how anyone could ever tolerate life in a city without one. That is especially true for families — don’t miss that opportunity to howl the phrase “Won’t somebody please think of the children?”.
But is is said that having backyards is unsustainable, it takes too much space, so we should learn to live without one.
