Adrestia Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 I'd prop Kujo if I could. That's all I have to contribute.
HisChildForever Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 [quote name='StClare_OraProNobis' timestamp='1334613913' post='2418983'] People don't like being called prudes. Seems pretty common sense to me. And you may find it funny, but the person on the other end of the "joke" may not. Just because I have a minority opinion on this thread doesn't mean that I am being a prude. [/quote] I was not calling anyone on this thread or forum a prude. My avatar is St. Michael. I'm confident that Winchester is well aware of who's portrayed - he was making fun of the scrupulosity of certain posts in this thread by pointing out Mike's bare-chest. I continued the joke. By the way, you aren't a prude. Not unless you're "allergic" to discussing sexuality and the reproductive system. That's what I consider a prude anyway.
HisChildForever Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 [quote name='StClare_OraProNobis' timestamp='1334616993' post='2419019'] She was obviously not talking about the people who agree with her point of view. That would mean she must be talking about those who disagree. [/quote] You obviously need to chill out.
EmilyAnn Posted April 16, 2012 Author Posted April 16, 2012 [quote name='Papist' timestamp='1334325283' post='2416961'] If you had the choice of [s]roommate [/s]housemate, same gender or opposite gender, which would you choose? I think it is important to understand why you chose what you did. Because if all things are the same except for gender, then why you chose what you did? [/quote] I've been away for a few weeks so I've missed a load of this but this kind of jumped out at me. Most of my friends are male, I get along better with men than with women. Almost all of the women I know are the catty, gossipy types and I have very little patience for it. Men are much less silly and I find all-girl houses seem to be consumed by drama and petty arguments and talking behind people's backs. Having a mixed house seems to make for a much nicer atmosphere. I wouldn't choose to live with only men, but I've found living in a house where the gender mix is even has worked perfectly.
Winchester Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 [quote name='HisChildForever' timestamp='1334617931' post='2419029'] You obviously need to chill out. [/quote] Maybe if you'd quit calling people prudes and attacking them so viciously.

My last semester of undergrad I lived with 5 other girls. Now, I got on with them well, but it was still oestrogen overload at times, so most of my waking hours were spent at the guys' house down the road. One of my housemates usually went with me. Of course, we also ended up marrying guys from that house.
Tab'le De'Bah-Rye Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 [quote name='IcePrincessKRS' timestamp='1334537052' post='2418401'] I think this is a little bit off topic, but I will attempt to address this question as best as I can. Lust is as "natural" as the inclination to any other sin. We all have it, but it's a disordered inclination and we're called to resist those temptations. FuturePriest is messing up his terminology. Lust is[i] [b]not[/b][/i] the same thing as the desire to procreate, or the desire to participate in the unitive aspect of sex with one's spouse. Lust is an "intense or unrestrained sexual craving." It's the inclination that incites one to use pornography, fornicate, masturbate, etc. Again, it is not the same as physical attraction or sexual desire for one's spouse. It is possible to lust after one's spouse, but ideally lust is not the driving force behind marital relations. [/quote] thought so,gracious thanks.

We'll save that for some night in the future so you can think about it as you lay your head down on your pillow to sleep, hopefully unaccompanied by a man.

[/quote] Well, if i didnt consider you a worldly, experienced person already, finding you are homeschooled is just really kicking that up a notch. All this talk about how men and women feel in constant contact with each other and you dont even attend school?

I am a bit taken aback by the condescending way people talk to and about each other here. (Not only specific to this thread, although there have been examples in this thread.) This comment is not specific to what you said, HisChildForever, but just a more general observation. It is the way of the world to poke fun and disrespect other people, especially those we disagree with. It should not be the way of the Christian. It seems like some of those comments even get a lot of props. That being said, I'm out. Peace. Edited April 17, 2012 by StClare_OraProNobis

cmotherofpirl Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 This is the debate board, not open mic. This is the board where the phamily squabbles, just as around the supper table or over a pint of good beer. Things are placed here because they do get heated, and people can get argumentative, unreasonable, and annoying. We love them anyway. If this is not your style of discussion and its not for everyone we have many other phorums to choose from. By the end of the day, we expect everyone to kiss and make up and be phriends.
