    Norway, did you read my post? You're being taken in for a sucker. Photos together are not required (many people here have been approved with no photos. I have never submitted a photo of us together) and an attorney cannot make things go faster.

    You are correct because Jesus did not contribute with anything. He couldn't even be bothered to write his own gospel. At best Jesus was a terrorist who walked around with a posse of unemployed outlaws and a prostitute.

    He didn't have a house to call his own, nor did he have job. Instead, he wandered about and relied on others for sustenance. That fits your rather judgmental definition nicely.

    You've never been officially diagnosed, right? Iono, don't think I'd volunteer self-diagnosed things. If you're set on answering yes, I recommend getting an evaluation done at a psychologist or a psychiatrist. You might even be able to get it for free, if you talk to your family doctor first. Good luck!

    Giving a woman a compliment on her looks seems a bit dated except under the right circumstances. I think if a woman is receptive of receiving compliments it would be about her achievements rather than the superficiality of outward appearance.

    sharky-rex got a reaction from We Keep Receipts in Ohio ban on recognizing out-of-state gay marriages to fall   
    I would fully support opening up marriage to any number of adults who can give informed consent. If your wife agrees with you marrying another woman or man, fantastic. If not, you get to pick. Good luck. It's when you start dragging children into it that things turn creepy, and illegal for good reason. As for the relative thing, personally it squicks me out, but that should not be a basis for law. Obviously there's an issue with coupling between generations, because you can't guarantee the difference in power ever went away, nor that the child wasn't groomed for it. There's also a concern about genetic abnormalities for any children born to such union, but that can be handled with a different set of laws, I guess. Any call on the biblical definition of marriage is ridiculous, because of the obvious difference in circumstance between now and 2000 years ago. The short answer: I don't know. The definition of marriage is and should be evolving. Don't like interracial marriage? Don't marry out of your race. Don't like same-sex marriage? Don't marry someone of the same sex. Let the rest of us try to slowly make this world a better, freer place.
    But Not a Tailor already covered all these points, and none of it registered with you. You have this way of twisting arguments until they're unrecognizable, throwing in things that are related only if you squint, cover your eyes and look sideways and generally making the discussion so ###-backwards no one wants to argue with you anymore. I don't even know why I'm replying, and I probably won't to anything you post after this.

    This whole thread has been eye-opening for me. I just can't imagine someone acting like that. If I got the gender wrong when talking to a woman; I would probably be so embarrassed that I'd try to disappear. For it to evolve into what it did is disgusting. I can't blame women for being cautious when a guy says something nice when it seems it has so many times turned into something else entirely. I really don't know what the answer is. I guess it's just more moral decay.

    Ah, hysteria, the most commonly used word in all of history to erase the words of a woman. It literally comes from the idea that hysteria comes from the uterus (which we all know it doesn't).
    What it ACTUALLY means is "As a man, I find your words intimidating and I cannot come up with an answer that doesn't make me look bad, so I am going to pretend that you are crazy so that I can look just fine when I refuse to think about something that makes me uncomfortable."
    Thank you for your blatant sexism.

    Oh my god how is your reading comprehension this low. I'm not asking for training wheels. If he had tried something, well, I've fought off bigger guys. I'd probably get hurt, don't get me wrong, and I'd be shaken up as heck, but every guy folds if you kick him hard enough in his 'putter.'
    This is what I am talking about:
    1) In this thread, many men have posited that women invite it by dressing a certain way.
    2) I have proven with this instance that it happens no matter how women dress.
    3) The question I am asking is 'If it is the woman's fault and women invite it no matter how they dress, how does a woman avoid inviting it?'
    If women are inviting it, tell me how I was just inviting it? Tell me what magic thing would make me not inviting it.
    Because if you can't, then the entire concept of 'women are inviting it' is bunk and every person who has posted that needs to shut up.

    I actually have no personal problem with polygamy and see no reason why it should be illegal. My country actually nearly legalized it in BC, but of course a bunch of abusive jerks who wanted child-brides had to attach their names and the court system couldn't see that the problem was with people being abusive and wanting to marry people who were incapable of consent rather than with plural marriage itself. Polygamy itself actually isn't problematic, so long as both the (adult) guy who lives with two (adult) women AND the (adult) woman who lives with two (adult) men and the two (adult) women and two (adult men who live together all have the same rights to plural marriage and the marriage is required to have informed consent by all parties.
    As for the rest, well, cousin marriages are legal in many parts of the world, including parts of the US. And those marriages have to be recognized at the federal level. Sibling marriage is more problematic because it is nearly always a reflection of abuse by the parents causing a codependency between the siblings. Uncle and niece (or aunt and nephew) represents a power imbalance where one party has, generally speaking, been in a position of authority over the other since the niece or nephew was a child. This lends itself to an inherent issue of grooming. So sibling marriages and aunt/uncle with nephew/niece marriages represent an issue of damage to the ability of informed consent. Again with the abuse. Being unable to give informed consent is the issue at hand.
    So stop trying to compare consenting adults to actual abusive issues where informed consent is impossible. It's a pretty big leap, unless you honestly believe that my wife and I have an inherently abusive relationship. And if that's the case, I pity you, because you clearly have such a narrow-minded view of love that the love in your life is limited to very few sources and that's no way for a human being, a social primate, to live.

    Let's call a spade a spade here. The ONLY reason a guy would 'compliment' a random female stranger on the streets is if at some level they find that woman sexually attractive. The 'compliment' is simply saying, if circumstances were different 'I'd do you'. 87% of women have come out saying, 'you know what? We'd much rather you kept that to yourselves'. All this tosh about compliments making a woman's day brighter. Again, 87% of women have said quite unequivocally that such knowledge does NOT make their days brighter, to a greater or lesser extent it ruins their day. All those who think they are being 'classy' by not leering and drooling while they say 'I'd do you' are fooling themselves. Try this test on yourself. If you had a daughter and you were walking down the street with her and she was 'complimented by random strangers (which noted they don't do - ask yourselves how many times you compliment women in mixed company) how often would you think, how nice, these guys think my daughter looks nice today? Yeah, right, not so funny is it?

    You can compliment your wife, you mother, your friends etc but strangers on a street is a complete no no. You have absolutely NO idea what your 'compliment' means to a woman you do not know. At best, it's probably embarrassment, at worst it could be fear. If someone responded to your so called 'compliment' with piss off, what would you say? That they have some nerve to reject your compliment? Seriously, how about you're a 30 year old 'compimenting' a 16 year old? Is she meant to know you're a good guy who only wants to pass on some pleasantry? You wan to say something nice irrespective of what the recipient may or may not want because you have decided that it's something that women should expect and delight in. How did you come to this conclusion?

    Sorry
    That's true. I haven't exactly counted, but it seems to me that the majority of women who have posted here agree with me. Yes somehow what men think ought to be counts just as much. It seems like the man's desire to compliment a woman is more important than how she actually feels about it, which should be the whole point of giving a compliment.

    Ah, see, I don't like it so there must be something wrong with me. Other women agreeing with me on this thread? There must be something wrong with them too! Maybe it's that they're not men.
    No. If you really like an item of clothing and she doesn't look like she really doesn't want attention, sure, go ahead. Hat is fine. Dude, nice shoes is fine. But it's about the item of clothing, not the woman. You're complimenting her sense of style, not looks. Nice dress might be dodgy, and here's why: I don't want to feel like a random stranger passing me by is checking out my body. We deal with creeps way more frequently than you might think, and you never know who you're dealing with. So anything that might be a camouflage for nice tits or nice butt, if you really care how the woman will feel, you'd stay clear.

    Welp, the men have decided. Ladies, if you get complimented by a perfect stranger, you better be pleased about it. If you don't there's obviously something wrong with you. After all, it's not about you. It's so he can feel good about himself. He's classy like that.
