5/23 Lessons of the same-sex marriage debate in the Netherlands http://csua.org/u/7ez \_ I was kind of surprised by how bad this article is, given it's from the Hoover Institute. They generally do better than this. I counted about six crossed narratives, none of which tied the central "history of gay marriage" narrative to the marriage data on the chart. It seemed more like one person's opportunity to vomit up a bunch of their readings into gay politics in the Netherlands than any kind of research results. You know what, I can read crap written by far-left academics and come up with alarming statements, too, and I doubt I would get paid as much the author. \_ The Hoover Institute has a glorious history of trying to draw dubious correlations, then trying to claim causation. \_ The chart makes no distinction between planned and unplanned occurrences of children out of wedlock. \_ Given the argument, I'm not sure it matters. Would in increase in unplanned out of wedlock children be good or bad of this page's statistics? The both show a break down of the family. \_ If the chart showed an increase in planned out-of-wedlock births, it would show that more people think that being married is not essential to having a kid. It is misleading to describe this as "a break down of the family". \_ yea... having two parents is old hat. \_ Mmm.. obtuseness \_ This article is a religious article, their assumption is that children should be raised by married parents. Not to meantion, cohabitating families are statstically shown to be less stable. With these facts in mind, it is hardly surprising for this article to call a high percentage of out of wedlock births a breakdown of the traditional family. \_ Mmm.. statistics \_ Mmm.. meaningless comments |

5/20 Anybody find themselves in a similar situation: You have a good friend of the opposite gender. This person is either married or in a serious relationship with a loser. The loser doesn't display any obvious jealously (and there is no reason to be jealous), but does seem to quietly sabotage your relationship. Like saying "I'm feeling tired and want to go home" or just becomes moody and ruins things. \_ "no reason to be jealous" doesn't sound accurate \_ Not in a sexual sense. I think he knows he is a loser. He probably makes less than half of what she and I do, for example so he is always lobbing to go cheap on things. \_ it sounds like you are the loser. -tom \_ Why do you say that? Nobody is showing off. It's more like after going out to dinner he wanted to go home or go across town to a bar where drink are $1 cheaper. He also doesn't have a car so he always needs to be picked up. Isn't it embarassing for guys if the woman has to pay for bar and restaurant tabs because you are always short (this isnt some Bad Boy Hells Angels type). \_ here's a hint: the world doesn't revolve around you. \_ Is this person married? I'm tending to agree with tom here. \_ Maybe it should be rephrased "doesn't know he has a reason to be jealous" \_ I sort of expected this to be challenged. But you have to accept that at face value. This is someone I've known for a long time, gone on trip with together etc. If something were going to happen, it would have. I dont want it to. In fact I always make sure to give them some space. \_ I hate hanging out with my wife's friends and family, and I'll make excuses so we'd leave as early as politeness allows when they are around. Most of the time I'll just ask my wife to go stag when they will be present. Is the loser SO insisting on showing up, or is your friend the one bringing the SO along? \_ I dont think this is a case of not liking me. He seems perfectly happy to talk about sports or movies, when "the women" are doing something else. I wonder if his behavior would change if I were not single. \_ You obviously don't like him much, I doubt he loves hanging with you. Stop being an arrogant asshole. \_ sabotage your platonic relationship? eh? \_ basically it's a case of "my buddy got hooked up, and now I've lost my buddy" -- which happens all the time \-Many of you are "begging the (non)hypothetical" ... surely if a guy says "he's not after a woman" you can take take that at face value. This sounds very plausible to me, especually around here ... say your are friends with someone from school and she hooks up with someone who was doing well back in the 1990s and then became a (fat, in poor physical condition) <DEAD>dot.com<DEAD> causualty and became a bitter lemur with no car. --psb \_ And...? She likes him. This dude needs to mind his own business. What's his question? \- i think the question is whether to antagonize the Lemur. You should tell him to "get a (job|car)". --psb \_ I guess what he really wants to ask is how he can win her over or at least get into her pants. \_ Sure, this happens with both male and female friends, if their new lover doesn't get along with me or thinks that I am a bad influence. He is just jealous, in the general sense, not the sexual sense. Does he try to drive away all of her friends? If so, that is a warning sign of an abusive personality. \_ You might be on to something there! He is really moody, and they do have a lot of fights sort of in public. |

5/19 How do I deal with multiple potential gf? \_ Dating advice on motd? \_ Post their name, pic url , and contact here. \_ try before you buy. \_ But I am weak in the conscious department, I can't get myself to do it without feeling too guilty. \_ How is this not conscientious? Lots of people date around before committing to a person. Just because you go on a date doesn't mean you married them. a date doesn't mean you married them. Some people draw the line at sex though, but that's up to each party. \_ If you are in a semi-vegetative state, how are you going to satisfy even a single mate? \_ Modern dating has gotten really screwed up. You're supposed to try out a lot of different people with a date or two before you commit to one. That's the IDEA. Think of it as a friendly job interview. \_ But where do you draw the line? You don't take multiple job offers. But sometimes after getting a job offer, you still want to see if you can get that google job, but you don't know if google actually want you. If google doesn't want you, then you will take this offer, after all, one needs a job. But does this really apply to dating? Although employers also have multiple candidates lined up, they don't send out multiple offers at the same time. \_ Didn't you just answer your own question? You don't make multiple commitments. Duh. I would say don't sleep with them either, but I say that goes till your married. \_ true story. a friend of mine had a phone interview at google. the interviewer was an asshole and he didn't get a real interview. a few months later he gets a job at a web company. two days after he starts work he gets a call from google. someone saw his master's thesis and they want to hire him. he quits his job and goes and works at google and has been very happy ever since. it's a true story, but you can think of it as a dating parable if you so desire. \_ so you should write lots of erotic stories and post them around on the net in the hopes of attracting some random attractive female fan? \_ I've interviewed at google twice. The second time I was there for almost 8 hours and correctly answered a long list of random and obscure questions from half the engineering staff. Idiot head recruiter will only say I was "not a good technical fit" when I was teaching their people several things they didn't know during the interview process. I think google interviews are just free training for their staff. \_ deal? gf != wife. Date all of them. Until you "get serious" and have some official "we're going steady and not fucking other people" agreement, you can do what you want. Do you really think all of them are having sex only with you and not 'dating' others? Don't be so naive. Not only are girls out there fucking multiple guys (and often other girls too) but plenty of them have STDs and know it and don't care if they dose you. \_ Party girls won't care if you date multiple ppl. Otherwise, cowboy up and choose one. If yer a party guy, why would you care, anyways? \_ Figure out where you draw the line. Two girls at once, it's ok to: - go out for coffee - social activities / parties - go out to dinner - kiss - 2nd, 3rd base ? \_ what does 2nd and 3rd base mean? \_ 2nd: Putting your arm around her shoulders at the movies 3rd: Holding hands - have sex with - marry Decide which checkboxes would make you feel guilty (or perhaps make your potential dates jealous) and try not to cross those lines. \_ if you're up front about it? all of the above sound fine. I've seen multiple marriage work just fine. \_ If you're honest about it, do whatever you feel comfortable with. In the absence of complete disclosure, do no more than the other person might expect you to. \_ If you choose multi-dating, either you have to lie to your dates or you have to put up with their own multi-dating. The difficulty of lying is exponential in its duration and the number of dates. If you consent to their multi-dating, remember that the tunnels of love you crawl in and out of are shared by strangers with diverse odors and fluid viscosity: you will be bathing yourself in public toilets. As you savor the sparkling dew from one of their treasured orifices, do you stop to wonder which of your fellow suitors secreted such delightful nectar? \_ Just because you're only dating one girl doesn't mean you're the only guy (or girl) she is sleeping with. My favorite is the (very) large number of colleg girls who sleep with other girls and honestly don't believe they are cheating because "it isn't real sex". You can still get a long list of STDs from your girl friend's girl friend. OTOH, if you're fucking both of them, either at the same or different times then it's share and share alike anyway. \_ Having a single girl does not mean she will make reciprocal arrangement, but having more and tell them so will most surely engender reciprocity if they stay. Unless your relationship is platonic or your date far outfoxes you, it is hard not to figure out whether she has other gigolos. \_ Who the FUCK deleted this thread? \_ Yeah, this was the only halfway interesting thing here. |

4/28 My sister's serious w/ a poor Viet guy who doesn't have a job, lives at her place, and does nothing except cleans up the house for her (he is a clean freak). My parents don't like him because he can't speak Korean and Idon't like him because he is a shy, weak ass pussy. Do you guys have similar problems and what do you guys do about it? \_ Has he actually wronged you in any way? As long as your sister is an adult, she's free to make mistakes. All you can do it tell her what a loser he is and hope she notices. \_ Hi lame troll. Here's my lame answer: get off the motd and pretend there is something more important going on in your life. \_ hey screw you. My sister makes over 100K and gets to inherit 1/2 of my parents' estates and everyone except her can see that he's in it for the money. The only reason why she likes him is because "he treats her like a princess", but man, he is a loser and he's gonna get 1/2 of her shit. It is just messed up. -op \_ I have a similar situation to yours. There's not much you can do, as far as i can tell. If you act openly contempuous towards the loser it can just make the situation worse, but that doesn't mean you have to hide what you think either. Sometimes good people marry bad people, and I don't think there's anything you or me can do about it. \_ Who says he is a bad person? His faults are: 1) he does not speak Korean (parents = racist), 2) there is no 2. The op is getting all twittish because the guy wants to be a house husband and the sister loves it. Who is the op to judge? Would he be happier if his sister was sucking some guy who had a job but treated her like shit? I'll do *that* for free and I won't even take the parents money. \_ hahaha just like all the whores marrying men for their money, your sister is one of the few getting screwed by a worthless guy! That's so great! Anyway, it's all your parent's and family's fault for not raising her to respect herself more. If you didn't all treat her like shit when she was younger then she wouldn't put so much value on his 'treating her like a princess'. --no sympathy \_ It's good she gets the trophy husband early. This way she knows what she wants in trophy husbands #2 and #3. \_ As the above guy points out, this is sort of routine for women: they do nothing but hang around the house in a great many cases. But no one rails against thair worth. Why're you so against this guy? \_ Those women are worthless too. \_ It depends on how determined she is. If she's a very self-sufficient person, then the only way she will change her mind is by herself, but if she's not, then you can be persistent and keep at it. \_ I will kick the loser's ass, and take over the duties of fucking your sister. How much is this inheritance, anyway? I will teach her the value of a strong man. \_ you know, Asians are pretty racist among themselves, and having brought up in a traditional Asian family I can totally understand your point of view. I mean, Viet + Korean??? what the hell is wrong with your sister????? \_ She's a Vietphile. Man, that's real embarrassing for your family. You should be ashamed. \_ Tell her, I think our parents think X, I think Y. But it's your life. Whatever you do, I'll try my best to support you. \_ As long as he treats her well, I don't see anything bad about. What if your sister dates a super rich guy who treats her like trash? What's most important is how happy your sister is with this guy. If the guy loves your sister for the wrong reason, then that's whole different story. \_ I believe op thinks that the shy guy is going to turn into an asshole or lose all of his sister's money after several years (e.g., she quits her $100K job to have babies), and be a poor role model for the kids. op probably thinks that if the guy had a job and wasn't a "shy, weak ass pussy", then op wouldn't think this way. \_ "shy, weak ass pussy" doesn't mean he only loves her for the money. \_ did I say anything about "loves her for the money" in my post? \_ if not, you shouldn't be too concern. Your sister is adult. Let her make her own decision. The more pressure you put on her, the more resistance she would have to leave this guy. \_ does anything think kchang is not a "shy, weak ass pussy"? \_ isn't he married to some hot chick? \_ see? \_ you guys are dumb. he is gay. that's why we made fun of him. |

3/15 Two ministers charged by the state with violating civil marriage laws by performing a gay marriage. Wouldn't it be easier if we just decided that relegious marriage and civil marriage had nothing in common? http://salon.com/news/wire/2004/03/15/ministers_charges/index.html \_ why don't they charge the Mayors first? \_ That's a bit extreme. Right now, religious ministers are licensed by the state to perform civil as well as religious marriage in a single ceremony as a convenience (and it means far fewer people coming to the courthouse for civil marriages, which saves you the taxpayer $$). Some countries don't allow for this and require a civil ceremony. That seems like a reasonable system. It is what will likely happen if same-sex marriage becomes legal (because most ministers will refuse to perform same-sex ceremonies and will likely not be allowed to perform any civil marriage). \_ Yes, but then you have to decide what civil marriage means. If two homosexuals can have a civil union which really just means a legal contract, why can't more people sign on to it? Why not have legal polygamy which grants the same benefits to groups as it does to couples? Why limit yourself? \_ All I'm saying is that it seems contrary to seperation of church and state for a religious ceremony to hold any legal authority. A marriage license should have no religious weight, and a religious ceremony should have no legal weight. \_ Does it really? ""Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..." There is less to separation of church and state than is sometimes claimed. \_ Actually, judges often times don't use the actual text of the Constitution itself but rather the intent of the text (which is why the Federalists Papers are often consulted by Constitutional experts). In this case, the first ammendment is loosely interpreted as meaning the government shall not force a particular religion upon the people. Don't know if that was the intent or not. \_ There's also a lot of case law and precedant flowing from that. It has been extended (by "activist judges") to include all lower levels of government too. \_ Religious ceremonies are just that. Ceremonial. They already do not carry any legal weight. That's why you need to go to city hall first and get a marriage license, etc. If the signed and witnessed document is not returned to city hall later, you're not married. You're single, right? \_ If a black man and a white girl can get married, why not have legal homosexual marriages? Why limit yourself? \_ exactly. lets just allow everyone to do everything, sanction and tax it. it feels good so do it! think of the children! it takes a village. did I miss any? \_ why limit ourselves to homosexual marriages. let's have polygamous marriages. \_ If you want to submit yourself to a denigrating relationship or position of inferior humanity, knock yourself out. Just don't expect society to pass a law recognizing the legitimacy of such a relationship. \_ How is it inferior? Society? So if society rejects homosexuality, you will accept that? \_ On the contrary: homosexual monogamy is about a relationship between two equal partners. Polygamy, by its very nature, begins to imply a hiearchy: first wife over second wife, etc., with each additional member of the overrepresented gender adding to the overall importance of the under- represented gender. \_ On the contrary, homosexuality throughout history has always been about unequal partners. Roman men and their males slaves. Greek men and boys. Prison daddies and their "wives". \_ Contrast that with modern homosexual relation- ships, wherein both partners are considered equals. \_ Similarly, polygamous relationships can work in modern societies, where people come together under their own free will. \_ ...the weird thing (from my POV) is that I find myself thinking that you're right. My objections are based on bad examples in the past, not mature, modern relationships. That, and it gives me the willies. \_ Then you get stuff like one person extending their health care to a dozen people. \_ yes and why is that any different than one person extending to only one person? why extend at all? why not allow one to extend to 12, 50, 5000 if they're in love? \_ you're an idiot. \_ You can be in love with 5,000 people, but it's unfair to require employers, the gov't, etc to provide spousal benefits to an arbitrarily large # of people. \_ The current laws and policies are based on the presumption that marriages are union between a man and a woman. I am sure there are ways to change it so that it caters well to a society with polygamous marriages, or for that matter, gay marriages. History is full of polygamous societies with code of laws. \_ All of which are/were based on the superiority one gender over another. Disagree? Prove me wrong: find me one (1) polygamous society, historical or modern, in which one gender was not considered less valuable than the other. \_ This doesn't prove anything. Historically, even in monogamous societies, one gender is considered less valuable than the other. Find me one society in history where homosexuality is prevalent (eg. Rome, Ancient Greece) where the relationship is not often unequal (Roman with male slave, Greek with slave boy, etc.). \_ Point being that you're the one arguing for historical justification of polygamy whereas I'm not arguing for historical justification of homosexual marriage. \_ Incorrect. I was arguing against using a small difficulty in the current benefits system as argument against polygamy. \_ Yes, but at least the Bible supports this relationship. \_ Using religious texts as the basis for civil laws... what a great idea. Call me when we're stoning the adulterers. \_ umm. see the US Constitution, Decl. of Independen ce \_ it does? where?? \_ How many wives did Solomon have? \_ yea, but Solomon sinned against God when his many wives led him to worship many idols. \_ Look Moses, David, Abraham, Jacob, Caleb, Gideon and Solomon were all polygamous. You can try and claim the bible is against polygamy, but you are full of it. \_ yes, the bible is full of sinners but that is the point.. \_ Thanks for erasing the line from Exodus that specifically states that a man may have more than one wife. In any case, the bible quite specifically, in more than one place, allows polygamy: \_ the one that says man "can" , David can also send Uriah to his death, I can also murder tons of people, but that doesn't mean it's not a sin just cuz it's in the bible. "can" != "may" \_ How about when your brother dies and you are commanded to marry his wife, regardless of whether you are married or not. Is that a sin, too? http://members.aol.com/healinglvs/healinglvs/poly-00.htm#3 \_ The bible does not prohibit polygamy. However, the bible also does not "support [polygamy]". The bible instructs the husband to love his wife as he loves himself. Also the bible says that elders, deacons and overseers (people in leadership positions in the church) must be "the husband of but one wife". \_ Nah, we just want gay marriage, not polygamy. After all, interracial marriage is allowed, right? \_ how do people turn what was normal then to not normal now? Back then it wAs normal to have a polygamy; it was normal to marry cousins; it was normal to get married at age 15... \_ it was only 'normal' for those able to afford it which was only the upper reaches of society. it is no different today. we still have mistresses/concubines, etc. \_ what I really mean is that people actually think it is weird disgusting. When I saw on talk shows that people saying it's sick to marry cousins, I was shocked because I don't have that disgusted feeling seeing cousin couples. Especially when one realizes there were many cousin marriages in the US history. To see the society get brainwashed to actually feel cousin marriages are disgusting is amazing. At this point, I'm sure there are many people find polygamy revolting \_ Cousin marriages are not, in and of themselves, disgusting. They do, however, entail a significantly higher chance of producing offspring with rare recessive disorders. Common taboos against cousin marriages are the product of the very first attempts at eugenics by the Roman Catholic Church. Now, if you _want_ to inflict bizarre genetic conditions on your offspring, one could very well argue that you're engaging in prenatal child abuse and do not deserve to have custody of your children. \_ This is not true. I don't have time today to google for this, but your genetics is wrong. Do you have any source for this? -bio major \_ What, apart from Punnett squares? \_ http://csua.org/u/6fn (USA Today) \_ "A 7 to 8% chance (of genetic disorder) is 50% greater than a 5% chance," says Philip Reilly, geneticist and author of Abraham Lincoln's DNA, a popular history of human genetics. "That's a significant difference. People counseling first cousins who want to marry need to be very careful and clear on this," Reilly says. \_ There's a much greater chance of genetic disorder in children born to women over 35, and especially over 40. \_ Women who have children after the age of 35 should be throw in jail for child abuse! \_ That is for first cousins. For second cousins, the effect is negligible. \_ It depends what you mean by "significantly". The effect is probably only noticeable in aggregate, when cousin marriage is widespread for generations. There are various arguments to be made against cousin marriage. But the genetic aspect is probably not that significant, apart from e.g. "double cousins" or known family problems, especially when there are a lot of other factors that society disregards such as older women having children (increases % of problems) and other analysis one could apply to particular couples. \_ yea, we chinese practised cousin marriage for quite a while, and we are only just slightly retarded. \_ well, a) even after inbreeding, it doesn't take much "outbreeding" to bounce back. b) maybe people were stupider or weaker than they would have been? how do you know? c) The average Chinese and Indians in USA are smarter than the average slobs back in the home country. \_ don't be too sure. these days, among those with a choice, the smart ones stay home cause that's where the exciting opportuni- ties are. \_ that's irrelevant to the averages. the ones that came here are mostly on the smarter side so their average is higher. \_ In feudal Japan, it was uncommon for commoners to get married at all. They practiced a kind of common law marriage. \_ Most of the world still practices a kind of common law marriage. -tom \_ I made that up. -tom |

3/9 Yahoo! News - Study Examines STD Rates of Teen Virgins http://csua.org/u/6cw "The study found that the STD rates for whites who pledged virginity was 2.8 percent compared with 3.5 percent for those who didn't pledge. For blacks, it was 18.1 percent and 20.3 percent. For Asians, 10.5 percent of virginity pledgers had STDs compared with 5.6 percent of non-pledgers. For Hispanics, it was 6.7 percent and 8.6 percent." Casual non-scientific thoughts: 1. The less horny an Asian claims, the more horny (s)he is. 2. It's safer to screw a seemingly horny Asian chick then a seemingly non-horny one. Also, "88 percent of pledgers have sex before marriage." Most pledgers are liars. :-) \_ 3. You're safer with whites than anyone else. 4. statistics tell you about averages, and if you base your decisions on the averages of large numbers of people, you're a fucking idiot (and you're probably fucking an idiot as well.) \_ but as long as idiots are monogamous, they're not getting stds! \_ Does that make me an idiot-fucking idiot? Oooh. \_ Actually that would be an idiot-fucking fucking idiot. Or fucking idiot-fucking idiot.

3/1 Wedding gift advice: how much should you spend on a gift for someone in your top 5 closest friends? Does it make a difference if your are good friends with just one person or the couple? $100? $300? $500? \_ I was best man at a wedding for some really good friends (both of them) and I got them a case of very nice wine that only matures in about 12 years or so. Be creative--I think expensive, dull gifts are lame, and won't buy from a wedding registry out of general principle (let the relatives take care of blenders and silverware and shit like that) but that's just me. Just get them something you put some thought and effort into. Rules about how much a gift should cost seem sort of pointless. -John \_ Then you're an idiot. My wife and I spent at least twenty hours working on the registry and all of our friends did the same. Nobody you just gave a gift to is going to say this to your face but get over yourself and get something people have actually indicated they want. As mentioned below, though, cash is greatly appreciated as a gift at wedding time. It's really what most newlyweds need most. We are going to have to postpone any honey moon for quite awhile for lack of it. -- ulysses \_ Maybe pointless to follow them slavishly. But consider someone from Japan or China or India or Russia...say they need some kind of basic guideline. A lot of these answers although creative do not answer the basic question. Obviously, if you are a surgeon making $250k/yr the answers are different than if you are a math teacher at a high school in Virginia. If you are an artist who has gallery exhibits, "your art" may be fine. A sketch of the Capanille you did last saturday would be a little silly otherwise. I think for a single person going to a wedding, who has additional expenses for travel, $300 is pretty fair. \_ Good point, given that in Japan you give ornate little envelopes full of cash, and at Bangladeshi weddings (at least in the UK) you just dump moolah into a bag. But I think that regardless of where you're from or how much you make, something cool/creative will always come across well and be appreciated. -John \_ What I heard was whatever it costs them to invite you to their wedding x 2. So yes, you bring more money as a couple. \_ I mean: If you are friends with both the bride and groom do you expect to spend more than if you are on one side of the family. \- when i dont like one party, i try to give something the party i like will get in the divorce, like if she is a dumb, materialistic bitch and he is an ethical guy with a GiantBrain, i'd give them the OED. \_ i just give them cash, $200 or so. \_ Why don't you try to buy them something nice that they might need? -tom \_ Depends on your income, but I think anything less than $400-500 is an insult to one of your closest friends. No, it does not make a difference if you know them both. Give as if you are friends with both even when you are not. FWIW, I gave an expensive set of knives and he got them in the divorce. Woo hoo! So I guess guns are good gifts if you are friends with the man! \_ ugh.. i feel cheap, i only spent $100 or so. \_ If your friend is a man, the best gift you could possible give him would be to prevent him from getting married. He may never thank you for it, but take comfort in the fact that you have saved one man from falling into the bottomless pit of misery that results from marriage. \_ bah, u just need to learn communication skills. see men are from mars, by john gray. \_ Communication skills won't help you when your wife decides that she would rather have your money and a life of luxury in the Bahamas based on your blood and sweat rather than work to build a life together. Communications skills won't help you in a community property state when she lies and tells the all-men-are-rapists divorce court judge that you were a spousal abuser. Communication skills won't help when every cent you make you is directly transfered to her account while you don't have enough to buy a burrito at Taco Bell. \_ ah, BDG is a wife-beater; unsurprising. \_ This isn't the BDG, just an imposter. -- bdg #1 fan \_ One thing people on this thread have suggested is not getting stuff from the registry. I suspect that these people are not married. The point of a registry is to make it more likely that you get things you want/need/can use and to prevent you from getting a whole bunch of weird stuff that you don't want. After all, people only have so much room for decorations and if everyone gets the newlyweds artsy stuff, there won't be anywhere to put it. Also, if the couple is paying for the wedding themselves (as opposed to parents paying), I can guarantee you that money is always appreciated since weddings can be very expensive. \_ I think the most badass thing ever would be to register at mcmaster carr. \_ As a sorta-recently married person, I agree with this: registry is *good*: we wouldn't have put it on the registry if we didn't want it! I also don't care how much a guest spends because the wedding is a party for everyone. I mean, don't be cheap if you can help it, but really it's just nice to celebrate. If you don't want to get something from the registry, then *cash* (or equivalent: e.g., gift certificates) is very appreciated. Again, amount doesn't matter. Getting three toaster ovens is lame (yes, we really did). However, we did get a few unexpected gifts which made us happy -- our favorite unexpected gift was a hedgehog mud scraper (for shoes/boots). Obviously it wasn't expensive but in the midst of opening gift-after-gift, it gave us quite a laugh. And we use it all the time. \_ It's all circumstantial. The registry is a guide that can help you make a useful choice (however, sometimes the registry has been made by the bride only, thus explaining "coral" and "seafoam" as color guides).I've given gifts when I was poor and when I had money, and when the couple were newlywed (never lived together) and older divorcees, each with their own homes. Give what you are comfortable with relative to both of your circumstances. A wedding is supposed to be celebrating the joining of two people's lives, not a treasure hunt. That happens when you graduate. \_ I got nothing when I graduated - not even a party. I never understood parents giving their kids things like cars when they graduate high school. I think I got an expensive pen. \_ I think it's because people generally need a car, and the parents have money and the kid doesn't, so the parents feel it's sensible to give them a car, and graduation seems like a logical time, as it usually coincides closely with the 18th birthday. \_ How about offering some service as a gift? An caucasian co-worker of mine was an amateur photographer, so he offered to take pictures in my Chinese wedding as a gift (and it worked out well even though he didn't understand the rituals). A service as a gift is silly in the Chinese mind because a service is just "helping out", but I think in the American mind it's a sincere gift. |

3/1 If you just wanna date to have sex, 18 year old girls are the best. Let me give you a few reasons: - younger, less chance of disease - tighter vagina - easier to convince her to be on the pill. feel better There are other reasons of course. -dans #1 fan \_ Easier to impress. \_ Yep, and put up with bullshit that older women avoid. Also can't use the "tried it and didn't like it" excuse as readily. \_ The disease thing is iffy. Unless you're preying on ingenues, an experienced 18 year old is _more_ likely to have a disease since she's less likely to have insisted on condoms with previous mates. \_ do 18 year old scream more/less than older woman? \_ None of you have ever had sex. \_ You mean for free, right? \_ I don't care for 18, 20, 24, etc. I just love to fuck virgins. \_ Uh huh.

2/29 Would you date someone with a 10 year age difference? [twentysomething and thirtysomething] \_ Yes, I dated a 40 year old woman, and boy, could she suck cock. -tawei \_ Yes, I dated a 40 year old woman -tawei \_ Yes (20+ and 30+, but not teenager and 20+). \_ Why not? As long as she's at least 18 and younger than I am. \_ Unless all you guys do is fuck, you most likely won't have too many things in common with an 18 year old. Unless of course you have the maturity level of an 18 year old. (i.e. 28 going 18) \_ For the sake of arguement, is it so out of the question that an 18 year old could have the maturity level of a 28 year old? \_ Mostly. There are rare exceptions. *VERY* rare exceptions.

A really mature 22 year old is more like your average 28 year old. After that, it's more a matter of life priorities and personalities; your really mature very different understanding of life than an 18 year old, 25 year old may still be into clubbing when you're much more interested in staying home with a good book. \_ It's more than what you plan to do saturday night. If very different understanding of life than 18 year old, you're just fucking it doesn't matter but for anything real you need enough life experiences in common. If you're 28, own a home, on your third car, have an ex-wife or ex-gf you almost married, and buried your 3rd dog last year at age 15 you've done a lot of things and have a very different understanding of life than an 18 year old, any 18 year old just can't have. If she's 18 and has that much life experience already she's probably had a really hard life and comes with a truckload of baggage. \_ The 18 to 28 mentioned above is unlikely to be a successful real relationship but she's old enough to fuck. 23 to 33 is much more likely to work out as a 23 year old is better able to deal but there's still no guarantees in life. 29 to 39 is no problem. OTOH if it's just about sex and killing some time then as long as it's legal why not? \_ A 10 year age difference is irrelevant. I've dated several people 10+ years my senior. All of those relationships ended amicably, and the exes are now good friends. I recently dated someone five years my junior (I am 24, do the math). She was very mature for her age, but stress showed some rough spots. I think she is a fabulous girl, and I think that she will be an amazing woman in a few years. Basically, I think that, in the general case, age is irrelevant. If you're older than twenty, you shouldn't be dating people younger than seventeen, but once you resolve the questions of legality and decorum, anything goes. Life experience is what you make of it. People who are thirty *may* have more experience to draw upon, but that doesn't mean they actually learned from their experiences. I know plenty of fifty-somethings with the maturity of a cranky toddler. Conversely, I know lots of people who were very mature at age sixteen or younger. -dans \_ When I was 20 and sleeping with a 37 year old, I thought so, too. Now that I'm 34, I don't know what (apart from youth, enthusiasm, and huge libido) she saw in me. Apart from the aforementioned youth, enthusiasm, and huge libido, I can't understand dating someone now who is 20. \_ HELLO TAWEI!!! Long time no see!!! \_ Where does a 20 year old hook up with a 37? \_ There are plenty of older women walking around who take care of themselves and would love to fuck your brains out if you're 20, healthy, and clean. When I was 20 I thought they were too old. At 34, I 'appreciate' their desperation and 'special needs'. Just look around you, they're single, need sex, and looking for you. \_ Are you still friends with her? Also, have you dated any men who are ten years your senior? -dans \_ I believe the person above has never slept with men senior junior, or otherwise. At 20 the person was sleeping with a 37 year old *woman*. \_ Just because you're "still friends" and things ended amicably doesn't mean you had healthy relationships. It may just mean that neither of you really gave a shit. Don't confuse the two. At 24 you're hardly in a great position to say that a 28 year old hasn't learned more from life than an 18 year old. If the 28yo hasn't then they must have been sleeping in a cocoon. That you even believe in the concept of mature 16 year olds (or even younger as you say) is ridiculous. It sounds like you've 100% swallowed the whole SF/Berkeley "if it feels good, it's good" thing. Your 50 year 'toddlers' need professional help if there's any 16 year old with more maturity. No offense intended, but at 24 you're still young enough to be cute in the way know-it-all teens are, but not old enough yet to really know wtf you're talking about. I think you're a fabulous boy and you'll be an amazing man in a few years but I think stress is showing the rough spots now. Can we still be friends? \_ In the words of a dead English guy who said it better than I can ever hope to, There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy. You seem to be under the impression that that I claim ``All 28 year olds have not learned more from life than all 18 year olds.'' I made no such claim. If you think I did, kindly reread what I wrote in my previous post, and if you still think that's what I claim, you should brush up on your logic and rhetoric. If after all that you still think that's what I claim, do yourself a favor and have your head examined. Although I've met many 50-something `toddlers,' a great many members of congress, not to mention our President, qualify for this designation. I agree with you they do, indeed, need professional help. Seeing as I held the aforementioned beliefs for years before I set foot in California, I don't see how they could result from any purported SF/Berkeley ``if it feels good, it's good'' `thing' you suggest I subscribe to. When you state that ``... at 24 you're ... not old enough yet to really know wtf you're talking about.'' it shows that you subscribe to the fallacy that wisdom is a linear function of age. The fact that the depth of your N years of experience does not include meeting a mature 18 year proves only that you have never met a mature 18 year old. It in no way proves that mature 18 year olds do not exist. Assuming that N > 24, the very fact that you refuse to believe me suggests that either a) You do not understand my argument, or b) You do not believe I am capable of assessing maturity. Either way continuing this discussion with you is pointless. If a) is true, then you're clearly unfit to participate in a rational debate. If b) is true, you are implying that everything I have to say on this matter has no value, in which case, my only reasonable course of action is to assume the same is true of all your thoughts. More in heaven and earth, train harder young grasshopper. -dans \_ On part A) I didn't say the fabricated quote you attribute to me, so everything on that topic that follow is your own personal little delusion. On part B) regarding your impressive ability to survive 24 years, I honestly tried to read your post but when you started to get all Spock logic about it, it was just too boring and idiotic to continue. There's simply no such thing as mature 18 year olds or immature 50 year olds in the sense the OP was asking about. If you really think you've met truly mature 16 year olds then it only says you're rather young, not that they are rather old. Your political beliefs about Bush and some members of the legislative branch has nothing to do with anything and is unlikely to convince any liberals here of the merits of your belief system but it was a nice try. \_ So, three generations ago, it was routine for a 18 year old and a 17 year old to strike out on their own, get married, settle a 160 acre piece of land, build their own house and start having children. These young people strike me as mature. Perhaps things have changed in 100 years, but human nature has not. Do not confuse the fact that you don't know any mature 18 year olds with the idea that there are none anywhere in the world. \_ wife beating was common and accepted then too. that likely to work out as a 23 year old is better able to deal but there's still no guarantees in life. 29 to 39 is no problem. OTOH if it's just about sex and killing some time then as long as it's legal why not? draw upon, but that doesn't mean they actually learned from their experiences.

There's "mature for her age" but there is some relationship between age/experience and wisdom. At some point that curve starts to flatten, but someone age 18 can't even legally drink/gamble, go to a bar, may not have ever voted, and could not be elected President. The perception is that an 18 year old is a kid. Even a really mature 18 year old does not have the wisdom of an infantile 50 year old. An immature 28 year old and a mature 18 year old can probably get along just fine, but anyone older than 20 getting with an 18 year old likely just wants sex and is rationalizing. \_ I didn't rationalize it. I fucked her brains out until I couldn't move anymore and my cock was sore from the endless sex. The rest of what you say is spot on. \_ is having sex with an 18 year old a lot better than say a 25 year old? if so, in what way? \_ yes. 11y6m difference, she was older. |

2/24 dear motd psychologist, i'm happy with my current gf. however, i've been having a lot of dreams about my x-gf (happy dreams with her). why is that? does this mean i still like my x subconsciously, or that i don't like my current gf which is a contradiction, or what? any analysis you have would be appreciated, thanks. \_ Who's to say that you don't like them both for different reasons? Also, maybe you are trying to subconciously put a positive spin on a bad past relationship. I sometimes have dreams about old roommates who I've had a falling out with. \_ It means you should try and have a threesome. \_ BINGO! good call. \_ It's a resolution dream, your brain's way of resolving unresolved threads in your life. It's an expression of the way you wish things could have been, but it has no real bearing on your current life. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. \_ It's just a dream, fr[a]eud not withstanding. Yes dream *could* have some relation with your real life, but rarely directly and the relation is often trivial. Let it come and let it go. \_ if freud were such a fraud we wouldn't still be talking about him. nothing substantial has replaced his theories. \_ Freud made it into a respectable field and helped shattered many of the taboos. He also made a permanent(ly wrong) impression on the public and that's why we still talk about it in popular culture, but his theory is not what is taught in any respectable curriculum. \_ tell your ex about your dreams and see if she feels the same way \_ i did and she said no. however, she's been having a lot of health problems so that's kind of understandable. -op \_ i'd be pissed off too if you gave me herpes. that would be understandable. \_ A therapist would ask what your ex-gf represents to you. People in dreams are not always what they appear to be. \_ did you do it with your ex or your current gf? if so, which one is better? \_ if you haven't had sex with someone that you're calling your gf and you're both adults then she's not your gf. \_ Yeah, I think the correct term is "friend from Bible study". \- heh --psb \_ Yeah, like the way those Catholic fathers study with those boys. |

2/24 Am I the only one who think Sex and the City is stupid? Okay maybe no more stupid than the other shows but I don't have a TV and don't know. I just caught an episode on a hotel TV while travelling aborad. Maybe with some sex it could actually be stimulating to the senses, but I just can't see what's so intelligent about it. And it's further removed from the real world than the survival island. \_ You think that show's stupid? Try watching American Idol. \_ No you are not the only one. -- ashamed to admit watching an episode \- the people on the show are self-abosorbed, shallow and morally bankrupt hedonists [like in muriel's wedding]. it cant hold a candle to say seinfeld for smart writing or coupling [uk] for humor. --psb \_ Coupling, while occasionally pretty funny, has bad acting, not-too-grandiose writing, loads of pruderie, and masks the same sort of "moral bankruptcy" with a thin veneer of "we are the BBC, we must be good". On the other hand, there's nothing wrong with a bit of moral banktruptcy... -John \_ I would watch a hedonist show if it had any depth, but ... \_ a lot of us happen to like self-absorbed, shallow, and morally bankrupt hedonism. besides, that passes for sophistication in many circles. \_ The only episode I ever watched was one where one girl was bitching to another girl cause her jimmy choo shoes disappeared after a house party at the other girl's place. whatever. \_ If you don't understand the importance of shoes, you don't understand girls. \_ That's as stupid as saying 'if you don't understand the importance of football, you don't understand boys.' -- ilyas \_ Let the record show that ilyas does not understand girls. ;-) \_ Or boys, apparently. -- ilyas \_ Corroborated by girlfriend and other women. -John \_ I first read this as "girlfriend and other womAn". much funnier. \_ well, my girlfriend LOVES shoes too, but getting into a bitch fight for it is another story ... \_ Has anyone ever stolen a shoe of hers? -John \_ In short, yes the show is stupid and no one important will miss it. \_ Unless you're married.... \_ My wife hates it too. \_ I (a male) also found the show distasteful. However more than a few women I know tell me Sex and the City speaks volumes to their lives as single women in their thirties. YMMV. \_ I am reminded of the Simpsons when Marge's sisters, Selma and Patti, are watching SaTC and Selma exclaims "Oh this show is SO us!" \_ In the same episode they described the show as, "four single women who act like gay men" \_ Great thread when it manages to get psb to weigh in on a popular TV show. Sex and the City was, when it arrived, the best written comedy I'd seen on TV. Six Feet Under took that away a couple of years later, though, and got more into those "moral" issues, if that's what floats your boat. The better question is which of the four do you love/hate most? Incidentally, like any show. It varied a great deal ep to ep. It would be a mistake to call the show on a single episode. -- ulysses. \_ why? partha watches trashy tv along with the rest of us. \_ First, interrupting is rude practise, son. Get over it. Other than that, I'm just poking fun at the most pompous voice I read on the motd. Lord knows I'm culpable myself. For the record, I didn't watch TV until I started dating my wife. Now, I'm afraid, I can describe the plots of most every show on prime time cable. -- ulysses \_ You watch prime time cable and you call people son? They should be calling you son, I think. \_ The shame...the shame! -- ulysses \_ psb makes a lot of sense if you imagine him speaking in a voice like one of the bald dudes in "Dark City." \_ This cracked me up. Nice call. \_ seconded. this image should improve my motd reading experience for years to come. \_ If I wanted to listen to the privledged white girls whine, I'd start going to Republican events. \_ Well you certainly spell like one. -dans \_ Ph34r |\/|y 5p311!Ng Ph4|\/|3!!!! \_ I'm confused. Are white Republicans rich and evil or poor hick white trash? Can you pick one slur and stick with it? Thanks! --Rich Evil Poor White Trash Republican \_ so are there any woman out there who do NOT like SatC? \_ I don't like it and don't hate it. I don't get HBO but if I did i'd probably watch it when I feel like vegging in front of the tv for a while. I don't have the type of female friends that get together every week to watch it but if I did I'd probably use it as an excuse to hang out and get drunk. The writing certainly doesn't "speak to me" or anything. -soda gal \_ You see or hear about any sex in Sex In The City? Did you expect hardcore penetration scenes or something??? |

None probably but if one or more was slutting around and dripping with cum and I didn't notice I think I survived. Thanks for caring! \_ You believed it the chick said she was on the pill? \_ What's the incubation period of AIDS again? \_ Wow, this sounds pretty tin-foil condom to me. \_ while I think condom is safe and all, I don't use them anymore. When I started screwing this chick who was on the pill, I never wanted to go back to condoms again. It just feels sooooooo much better without the condom. It's like the difference between getting a massage with a hammer vs. getting a massage with bare naked hands.

They only work if you record them on video, and put it in a public directory in csua, though. Start with the dead cat in a cemetary. \_ Thank you for relieving the boredom. I await the motd replies with great anticipation. \_ Stop doing her up the ass. \_ you mean you and the mailman are both sterile? what're the chances... \_ Try FedEx. USPO never comes on time. \_ please post your address and a good time when I should try to come over to help \_ find out when your wife is fertile. Go see doctors. \_ Insert the male dongle into the female port \_ If none of these suggestions work, try seeing a fertility specialist. \_ Don't do her every day. Your sperm count would get too low. You can see a doctor and have your stuff checked out. They can advise you on the monthly cycles etc. \_ stuff? which stuff is that? \_ I believe stud dogs and horses are bred <= every 2 days. \_ And? \_ Therefore it might make sense to try every other day. \_ Yeah... I couldn't tell if your "<=" was agreeing or disagreeing. \_ 'Less than or equal to every 2 days' \_ "every two days" is not a number. I guess I needed an "often" in there somewhere. \_ Are you wearing tight briefs? If so, switch to boxers. \_ And stop riding bike (nothing to do with using Linux), unless you always ride it standing-up with your butt away from the seat. \_ How do you know that using Linux doesn't make you less fertile? \_ No I don't, but I don't know otherwise either. \_ Throw her out of the house and order up a new mail order Russian bride. \_ If your wife has regular cycles, ovulation is at 14 days after the first day of period. So concentrate your effort to between the 11th day and the 14th day, because sperms can last three days inside her. I used this rule in reverse to avoid having a kid, until my wife threatened to divorce me. A couple months later she got pregnant. \_ *Laugh* This is the best thing on the entire motd. Classic. |

2/2 What do people think of the Vagina Monologues? Is it worth seeing? \_I enjoyed it all three times I've seen it, but then again I know a quarter of the cast. If you have a girlfriend/date your assured to get laid if you take her. \_ Heh. Isn't that the one where a 13 year old girl gets raped, and then it's supposedly 'good rape.' \_ No, it is a middle aged woman speaking sort of a feminist diatribe. I am pretty much a SNAG, but I found it to be kind of dull. The women I went with all enjoyed it. I do remember one funny line from it: "My vagina is Angry!". That cracked me up. \_ Hey Mr. SNAG, you really should do your research before saying 'no.' In fact, there was a 13 year old getting raped in the original version, but it's a 16 year old now, and references to 'good rape' were removed. Vagina Monologues are trash, bordering on criminal trash. \_ Have you ever actually seen it performed, or are you just parroting some crap you read on Freep? \_ http://www.equityfeminism.com/articles/2000/000029.html Google for 'vagina monologues 13 year old'. I don't need to see it performed to consider it trash. I haven't seen most things I consider bad face to face. Thank God for that. \_ "I said VAGINA at least a dozen times a day for two months, and I was able to reclaim it as a word." \_ Vagina no longer refers to a woman's parts? \_ So in other words, there is no scene where a "13 year old girl gets raped" no line about a "good rape" and everything you know about the play is from something someone else told you about it. And yet you are certain you are the authority and I am wrong, even though I have seen it. Gotcha. \_ There was a scene where a 13 year old girl describes being raped by an older (over 18) person. And then says 'if it was rape it was good rape.' This scene was REMOVED in subsequent versions, as has been said several times. What exactly are you questioning here? Are you saying this line never existed? Because I can easily prove you wrong. The play is trash for this reason alone. \_ I pointed out that there was no 13 yo rape. I saw it and can verify that fact. The person was asking "should I go see The Vagina Monologues?" not "should I have gone and seen Vagina Monologues four years ago?" There is no rape scene and you are wrong, just admit it. A bunch of women talk about there experiences being raped, but none of them are 13. Say it "you were right and I am wrong." It's not that hard, is it? \_ what's SNAG? \_ Sensitive New Age Guy \_ Also used ironically to describe guys who claim to be sensitive, kind etc but are really just passive-agressive pussies. \_ I have not seen Vagina Monologues, but I have seen Eve Ensler and I think she's a strong speaker. -tom \_ Is it worth seeing if it is other girls putting it on? -op \_ girls? These are wymyn you insensitive rapist clod! \_ Hm, when I saw it was not Eve Ensler doing it. Perhaps it would have been better if it was by her. -SNAG \_ Why would you pay good money to see a woman whine and bash men? \_ you're right, it's better not to know. Ignorance is Truth. You can pay less to take out some random chick and maybe get laid and less than that gets you a bj with no whining. \_ you're right, it's better not to know. Ignorance is Truth. \_ prove me wrong. all i've seen so far is "you're a pig!" which and less than that gets you a bj with no whining. only proves me right. \_ From someone who obviously hasn't seen it.. \_ "My vagina is ANGRY!" Uhm yeah. I missed that line somewhere. Take your sensitive 90s ass somewhere else. Very few guys get laid with that attitude and none have ever been laid posting anonymously on the motd that way. \_ I'd hate to see the women that sleep with your ignant ass. \_ I've yet to be corrected, only insulted.

They had no problem editing out the streakers... \_ They didn't edit anything out, it was a wide shot for the second half kickoff, and when the streaker ran out onto the field, they could have left the camera on him and he would still have been far enough away that nothing could have been seen, but they just panned out farther. \_ Most live TV doesn't have a delay. \_ Local news doesn't use a delay, but most big events do. It lets them pick camera angles and block streakers, or if they did a crowd shot and someone gave the camera the middle finger. \_ "I'm going to have you naked by the end of this song." \_ sounds like a cue \_ Predictions? I'm guessing the FCC gives CBS a modest fine, CBS blames MTV, and MTV doesn't produce another halftime show until everyone forgets about this one (5-10 years). \_ Modest fine, apologies across the board, and MTV still produces next year's half-time show but makes Justin Timberlake rip the shirt off Seann William Scott (who will be wearing a pasty). \_ Do you work for MTV? That's a perfect VMA skit. Good choice of SWS. \_ I want to know where all the feminists are and why aren't they saying calling Timberlake out on his sexual battery and MTV for promoting violence against women as an acceptable act? |

If the latter, it is normal, as their mind is engaging on the next level of the I lose all interest in sex with her. I have had the problem relationship (i.e. it's not just about the sex). If the former then you need to communicate to her. Perhaps there is a medical reason to it, or perhaps it's mood issue. (nothing much you could do about this one). Good luck! \_ It's evolutionary. If a sex partner doesn't get you pregnant or get pregnant in about 6 months, you lose interest and go looking for a fertile partner instead. \_ You are lame in bed. \_ or maybe he loses interest in hygiene \_ maybe you never got laid. \_ no.

Perhaps she's thinking you're good in bed, but she wants a more interesting lifelong partner. \_ I have the problem that after I start dating a woman for a while, I lose interest in sex with her. I have had the problem you describe, but only occasionally. \_ what is your remedy? \_ I don't have one. Got any suggestions? \_ sleep around? \_ I have had the same problem with couple of my ex. It turned out they were both seeing someone else. Basically, it just means they weren't as emotionally attached to you as they were at first. \_ How serious are you about this woman?

Are you a member of NAMBLA? \_ url? \_ He can't give you an URL, because he's a lying troll. \_ link:csua.org/u/55w For the polygamy claim.

I can't get this link. could someone provide a text version? thanks. \_ awesome. the term finally found a meaning! \_ Umm, I don't really see what Dan (funny fucker btw) was upset about. I didn't see the original article but in the quote given at the wiki there is no mention of pedophelia. Obviously Lawrence can not be effectively used vis-a-vis pedo. But why not polygamy? Who here thinks polygamy is a LESS valid form of marriage than gay marriage? Anyone? Of course it's not. People (consentingable) should be able to enter into any kind of "marriage" contract they like and the gubmnt should respect it. -phuqm \_ no one's stopping you from living with a bunch of chicks and calling them your wives, as long as they don't mind. the government doesn't have to legally recognize them as your wives though. maybe i'd like to call you my bitch, but the government doesn't have to recognize that either. at least theoretically, what the majority decides is valid is what will, eventually, come to pass in this country. \_ I was a bit confused. This is about sodomy not gay marriage That being said, I still don't see what Dan was upset about Do you think that the courts SHOULD allow laws agin' incest but not against sodomy? Clearly they shouldn't. Clearly incest and sodomy are equally repugnant to some and there is no reasonable basis on which to say one is worse than the other. Or that only one should be prohibitable by law -phuqm \_ phuqm is my hero. Can I sodomize you, phuqm? --phuqm #1 fan \_ If you were REALLY my #1 fan you would ask if you could by sodomized BY me. Still, i've been waiting to have someone sign a post this way, and the bright sunshiney day has finally arrived. -phuqm as for the generally accepted "coming to pass". That may be true but far from optimal. One generation has been taught that it's ok to be gay and says "o.k. same sex marriages are ok, but you guys and your polygamy that's just perverse. We're not standing for that." Is this reasonable? I'm really curious to know what you CSUAers think. Poll Time: (poll moved to top). \_ "State laws against bigamy, same-sex marriage, adult incest, prostitution, masturbation, adultery, fornication, bestiality, and obscenity are likewise sustainable only in light of Bowers' validation of laws based on moral choices." -Antonin Scalia There are laws against masturbation? Wow, some CSUAers are really hardcore criminals then, I guess. \_ right, so Scalia and I basically agree (It is amazing how it is in the disscenting opinions of the supreme court where reason is most likely to be found): Either legislators have the right to enforce their own moral code in regards to sex between consenting adults or they don't (I exclude bestiality, being an animal rights nut). Though Scalia abhors this decision and I applaud it. (From a "this is the way *I* think it should be libertarian view, not a legal one, which i haven't considered in this case.) -phuqm gay marriages are ok by not polygamy: create whatever wacky marriage you want: .

12/1 I understand why marrying one's sibling would be illegal. But how about consensual sex between two adults who happens to be siblings? Why should that be illegal? Government has no right to dictate what should or shouldn't happen between two consenting adults. \_ you can have children whether or not you're married. \_ In a family, just because you're over 18 doesn't mean you have full autonomy. If it truly is consensual, the only reason for it to be illegal is the increased likelyhood of having handicapped kids. \_ Shouldn't there be a minimum genetic distant between two people before they are allowed to marry? Not just siblings but cousins shouldn't be allowed nor should uncle/niece. \_ There was a study showing that occasional marriage between first cousins has a minimal effect on birth defect rates. There was only a problem when it is commonplace to marry your cousin. \_ I would die for you Saddam, and the right to marry a first cousin! \_ That's a weird reason. By that logic, it should be illegal for older women to have sex. After all, they have an increased likelyhood of having handicapped kids. \_ There were a number of eugenics laws in this country in the early 20th century. I'm not saying it's fair, but society frequently bans things it frowns upon. \_ http://csua.org/u/54q California Eugenics history \_ I belive FDR married his 2nd cousin.

11/19 Has anyone heard an argument for defining marriage as being between a man and a woman that hasn't relied on "common sense" or "tradition"? I can't seem to find an argument that can't be traced back to religious doctrine fairly easily. \_ This is going to get flamed but every gay or lesbian person I've known has been a little odd, aside from the sexual aspect. Well, ok one of the lesbos was pretty cool. I think it's a mental thing. \_ There's no point in flaming you. You're already on fire. \_ Yes. The purpose of marriage is to create a stable societally enforced and supported relationship to raise children. The benefits to marraige are there to make it easier to raise kids because healthy, happy, educated, well adjusted kids are a great benefit to society. If you're not having kids society doesn't benefit from your marriage enough to justify any benefits received. Further more, children are better off with a mom and a dad, not two mommies or two daddies. Those in favor of diversity should understand that getting the multi-gender upbringing and perspective on life is more likely to provide a child with the tools s/he needs to do well in life. \_ STOP OVERWRITING PEOPLE'S POSTS \_ wasn't but you're going to start getting purged just for being wrong and an idiot and casting blame in the wrong direction. \_ Any particular reason you posted this FIVE TIMES?! \_ what? i didnt. \_ Yeah, you did, somehow. I took a liberty of removing the copies for you. You're welcome. \_ no. i didn't. thanks for cleaning the multiple copies for everyone, anyway. \_ Got any evidence to support your idea that a child is "better off" with two parents of different sex? \_ OP wanted a reason. I provided. If you don't like the status quo reason, it falls upon those seeking change to justify it. \_ And if the status quo reason makes no logical sense and is instead based on mindless tradition, it behooves the society to embrace the change-- even grudgingly. \_ It makes no logical sense to you. It makes lots of sense to lots of people. If you want something different from the status quo it is your burden to prove that your solution is not only better but the costs to society to make the change are worth it as well. If the new thing were better enough society wouldn't grudgingly change, it would embrace the new thing without force. \_ Your "reason" is irrational. Thanks for proving his point. \_ I didn't provide a "reason". He asked a question which I answered. No points made in any direction. I wasn't expressing my own opinion. \_ If the purpose of marriage is to create well-adjusted kids, then it stands to reason that two loving parents in a committed, monogamous relationship and equipped with an adequate income would be better suited to help an orphaned or abandoned child than the current system of orphanages and foster homes-- regardless of whether that couple is hetero- or homosexual. A child raised by either two men or two women is still as likely to receive a positive education about gender roles as any child raised in a household with non-same-sex parents. \_ I agree until you get to "A child raised by" at the end. How can two women provide a child with what a man can provide? How can two men replace a child's mother? \_ What is it that a mother provides that a loving male parent cannot? What is that a father provides that a loving female parent cannot? Until we define these so- called differences, we cannot make broad generalizations about who can provide what to a child. \_ A child needs a father AND a mother. They respond differently to them, and they learn different lessons from them. \_ What lessons? How are they gender-dependent? \_ You really think there's no difference between men and women? Mothers and fathers? You're now getting into areas that are so fundamental that if you disagree it would take volumes to cover all the basics. You're not an alien from another world so I can't believe your reply is anything other than a rhetorical attempt to ignore the obvious. Saying men and women are the same is ridiculous on it's face and no one from any part of the political, social, or other spectrum would agree with that statement. \_ perhaps gays should start adopting the word 'civil union' instead of marriage and guys like my dad won't get so upset. - danh \_ My mind automatically inserted "and mom" into your comment, which changed its meaning immensely. \_ c'mon, admit it, you were thinking about yermom, not his \_ The purpose of marriage to legitimize children.

11/4 I'm reading some men's magazine that claims that men have twice as many partners as women. That is fine except they didn't have any reference and didn't explain how they conducted their survey. \_ It's not fine. In fact, it's mathematically impossible. Think about why the expected number of sexual partners of heterosexual men and women cannot be different. I think it's totally flawed. Suppose there are 10 men and 10 women in some planet (50/50 equal sex distribution), and 1 man has sex with 10 female partners (the other 9 are hermits) and each women has sex with that 1 male partner, then ON AVERAGE, wouldn't each person have just one heterosexual partner? And if you change the numbers, in the end, ON AVERAGE, it'll still be the same? Do you see something wrong fundamentally with that claim?

I wasn't even aware an appeal of a small claims judgement was possible but I guess it makes sense sort of.

11/4 I'm reading some men's magazine that claims that men have twice as many partners as women. That is fine except they didn't have any reference and didn't explain how they conducted their survey. I think it's totally flawed. Suppose there are 10 men and 10 women in some planet (50/50 equal sex distribution), and 1 man has sex with 10 female partners (the other 9 are hermits) and each women has sex with that 1 male partner, then ON AVERAGE, wouldn't each person have just one heterosexual partner? And if you change the numbers, in the end, ON AVERAGE, it'll still be the same? Do you see something wrong fundamentally with that claim? Few factors that may contribute to the flaw: 1) Men inflate data, women deflate 2) Men have sex with lots of hookers but the survey doesn't ask the hookers, driving the average up 3) Gay sex included in the survey 4) The survey reports MEDIAN, not average What do you think is the more likely factor? \_ The answer is that journalists don't understand the most basic math and in the case of this survey they're just repeating what they think they heard someone else say.

10/29 Prositution is illegal in California. Let say, some horny 17 yr old high school kid decide to buy a pop and got busted, should the prositute herself be charged with child molestation for having sex with a minor? This is what happening to Taiwan, as the 17 yr old kid and his guardian is not being charged, while the prositute in the mainland is charged with child abuse. I am wondring is there any similiar case in USA. \_ Maybe they'd just make the 17 year old go back to school so that he doesn't end up at America's top public university posting to a public message board in broken English. Jackass. \_ It would be statutory rape, but as the punishment for prostitution is harsher, they'd probably forgo the stat rape charge. Now, if there's proof that the kid paid for sex, they could charge him with solicitation, but this is harder to prove. \_ In the US the cops would walk away because the whole thing is too messy and just not worth it. \_ But then again most prostitute in the US are savvy enough to ask whether you're over 18 before you're getting something. |

A short biography: http://www.wellesley.edu/anniversary/chiang.html \_ Is that a bad thing? \_ it's history. \_ for those who bitching about women right, one should really look at her and how she played the role of the First lady. It's not until the 1970's when the First Lady in the Western world slowly caught up with what she is already done in the 1930's. \_ If you're trying to mention highly-achieved Chinese women in the past, how about the King Mother Chi Hsi (sp?) of the Qing \_ Ci Xi. learn pinying \_ wo hen ta ma de pinying. \_ pinyin, no g \_ wo hen ta ma de in vs ing. no difference to my ear. \_ Sorry, I'm not a Mandarin speaker.

Or a very long one that started with "There's a poet Shih in a rock chamber. He likes eating lion. ......" Dynasty, and even Empress Wu in the Tang Dynasty a thousand years ago? \_ First Ladies should not have *any* power, control, or influence. Certainly not in a democracy where we elect our leaders, we don't marry them. And you've got a funny idea of women's rights where a woman has to marry the right guy to achieve power or wealth. That sounds very 1950's to me. \_ First Lady is essentially a cabinet position. She is appointed by the same person who appoints everyone else in the cabinet. If anything, the First Lady position is more democracy friendly than the other cabinet positions because you know what you're getting when you vote. We all knew during the election that if GW won Laura Bush would be First Lady, but I think if people had known ahead of time who would be appointed attrorney general it could have thrown the election the other way. \_ Wow, I didn't know Soong Ching-ling became a communists after Dr. Sun died. \_ You can even argue that Dr. Sun was a half of a communist at first place. \_ Is that why Deng Xiao-Ping erected a statue of Dr. Sun somewhere in China (I saw a picture of that in some book) even though he's of the Nationalist Party? \_ Sun Yat-Sen was the Father of Modern (Non-Imperial) China.

Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa(not in Calistoga) is very close to the limit of your budget. You could go for Sat night, and buy a nice spa package or two, spend a day wine tasting, etc. Or the Calistoga places can be a bit cheaper than SMI. \_ Lavender Hill in Calistoga is excellent and not too pricey.... \_ Bed and breakfast places up the coast on highway 1 in medicino are all also really nice and within your range --sky \_ I know there are good ones but I've had mixed experiences with B&Bs.

10/18 Does anyone have any ideas of how to cure a wet pussy? I accidentally kept my pussy in my pants as I ran them through the washing machine. \_ changing "phone" to "pussy" was only a little funny the first time, but the second time, it's just hilarious! genius! \_ Run it through the dryer to dry it out! \_ Prob hosed. Buy a new one. \_ I forgot I have my clunky old motorola startac pussy in my shorts pocket when I jumped into the fox river to pull my canoe to shore. The pussy would not power up at first, but slowly came back to life after a few days (no response -> static -> power up and down constantly -> works). However, it did develop a problem where once in a while, if I flip it open or close too fast, it would power off by itself, which is quite annoying. Try to be patient and wait a few days before powering it up. All the pussy numbers in the pussybook still remained. \_ I actually have a startac (that hasn't been drenched yet) that has that same problem (turning off by itself when I flip it open/shut too fast). So your startac is probably fully functionally then. \_ good to know. guess it's a systemic pussy problem then. \_ it is NOT hosed! You need a LOT of work and patience to save its life. First of all, if there are contaminants inside the pussy, you gotta get rid of them. Contaminants include sugar goo, salt (REALLY bad), and other chemicals. You gotta get rid of them by dipping the entire pussy into DISTILLED water. It must be distilled water or else it's no good. Then shake the pussy for a few minutes while in the distilled water, and repeat using new distilled water. Do it a few times, 10-15 would be ideal. Afterwards, you gotta dry your pussy. Do NOT, I repeat, do NOT power on the pussy when it is wet. Now wait 3-5 days while baking your pussy under the sun and then give it a try. It should work afterwards. |

Let her buy an equally or better expensive toy, and then check on how you feel. Or better yet, buy some stock, and when it pays off enough, buy your PB. \_ Siphon $50 every two weeks from your paycheck/account and keep it secret. After you've accumulated a decent chunk o'cash, tell your wife you've been saving up for a rainy day by eating out less and that you'd like to buy that notebook with the money you've saved as a kind of downpayment. \_ You guys are all a bunch of losers.

Enjoy. \_ or a man with no plan for family. \_ I love my wife dearly. I don't spend stupidly on toys like new laptops. And all these guys who are trying to fool their wife or beg for permission are losers. \_ The only permission you need from your wife is for 3somes. \_ Only if she is one of the participants. \_ Or if she's properly tied up like she should be. \_ Try looking at one or two alternatives to the powerbook and note their advantages (e.g., lower price) as well as their disadvantages (e.g., lack of features which make you want the powerbook). Then mention your thoughts when talking to your wife and ask her opinion. If she is a reasonable person she will probably agree that it's worth buying the powerbook. When my wife wants to buy something expensive and I can tell she's looked at alternatives and their is a good reason for spending extra money, I don't have a problem with it. She's the same way. Good luck. \_ this reads like bullshit to me... when buying an LV purse or a cartier watch, you cant really "look at the alternatives" and then come up w/ a "good reason". it's "hmm, i think this one looks the best" or "this item has more prestige". \_ although amuzing, you guys should read "how do I convince my wife to get that XXX camera on http://dpreview.com". |

9/4 So I was having dinner with a friend of mine and he said at some point that he didnt have a conscience. Appropriately, he acknowledged it was a defect, but he didnt feel bad about it. Do any of you want to admit the same thing? Know anybody to doesn't have a conscience? I am wondering how common this is. \_ do you just live in a hole? Read the paper and scan for "Halliburton". There are huge numbers of people "without a conscience." And while I don't think that is a good thing, I do believe the whole notion of "having a conscience" is contrived mainly to keep people from straying their societal bounds. What do you think? \- being a greedy bastard != no conscience. Do you think haliburton people dont care about their kids, for example? I think some of these corporate criminial should be put in "hard" prisons but I dont think this is an example of "no conscience" unless you dilute that to cover practically any criminal. --psb \_ I define conscience as the qualm one feels as he is about to hurt somebody in some way, or to entertain such an act or just the likelihood of unwittingly commiting it. If so, conscience is more a continuum than the conscience one can have is more a continuum than binary, and a great number of people barely have any all. Having too little conscience is a handicap only if one does not have the cunningness to match and conceal it. Having BTW, neither your implicit nor my explicit definition of conscience equates with what a dictionary nearby says, but that is irrelevant as conscience can be defined by the individual. Hitler might think he has a lot of conscience. too much, however, is almost always a debilitating defect. \_ Yeah, your friend's defective. It's the mark of a sociopath. Those are the sorts of people who kill a whole family "just to see what it is like." And of course, not having a conscience, he doesn't feel bad about not having a conscience. Not having one is a potentially fatal flaw, because everyone ELSE will eventually kill you because of your dangerousness. \_ you should read the short story "null-o", by Phillip K Dick. \_ You know, I did read it, but I've forgotten. If it's not too much trouble, could you remind me? --PeterM \_ I heard there is a form of autism that actually entails not having empathy and a conscience. It seemed very close to the description of a sociopath. But I was told it was a form of autism. --chris \_ Is half of the human race autistic? If one does not have conscience, how does he know he does not? This is not like color blindness, which can be objectively tested. \_ The psych department at Cal would gladly argue that it can be objectively tested. \_ the psych department wouuld convince him he's gay so they can have sex with him \_ I see. And how did that make you feel? \_ Maybe the friend is putting "conscience" in quotes. "I don't have what most people would call a 'conscience'. I see stealing, cheating, and lying everywhere, and so I don't feel bad about it. I don't kill or anything like that not because it's so inherently wrong, but because the cost of getting caught is too great." \_ So are any of you willing to admit you dont have a conscience? Or reveal the name of someone on soda who doesnt? This was not somebody who was obviously comes across as a sociopath. \_ oj@soda has no conscience. \_ One of my ex'es was a sociopath.

Are there any reliable media reports on the prostitution situation in Iraq? \_ oh no! call the moral police! \_ how about take out the "US" in there. I mean seriously, my dad was stationed next to Pakistani troops for while, they went out whoring and drinking as much as the next guy. goddamit i got trolled! you win. \_ Summary: US BAD! NON-US GOOD! \_ how about you learn how to format your posts? \_ Don't you know? Only US troops do bad things. \_ Just think, lots of men, lots of hormones, and no gf/wife. It's just a norm in the military. On a side note, the Japs took care of this problem by providing Comfort Women-- legalizing prostitution in military barracks. Goals: increase troop morale, increase enrollment (hey if you're young and still virgin here is your chance to get laid), and decrease $$$ flowing out of the military. It's a brilliant plan. \_ the concept may have been right, but the implementation was sexual slavery, rape, murder, etc. lots of hits on comfort women including this one: http://online.sfsu.edu/~soh/comfortwomen.html \_ The Japanese took care of the situation by having their troops rape half of the Eastern hemisphere. \_ Yep US only gets in trouble if they rape <14yo girls in Japan. They actually kick the guys out of the army. oooo. tough one. \_ Better than the UN where the very guys who are sent over to protect women from human rights abuses end up buying, selling, pimping, using, and raping them. \_ And one day, Japan will grow some balls and apologize outright for all the war crimes it perpertrated. Spineless twats. -Jon \_ I don't think there is very much prostitution in Iraq. There is quite a bit of fraternization though. \_ Minimal prostitution in Iraq? Your source of info? \_ Well, you wouldn't really want to pay money to have sex with a potato sack, would you? -John |

8/27 Silly question. How many of you are about 5'9"? I'm guessing at least a few since this is about the average height for white adult males. Now the real question: what size pants do you wear? I find that 31x28 or maybe 31x29 fit me just about right, but these are fairly uncommon sizes. (Specifically, I mean the inseam length, the second number.) So do you all wear pants that are too long, or do you have the same trouble I do in finding pants that fit well? \_ Most people in America are fat, they make 'em for them. \_ what does being fat have to do with height? \_ Buy trousers longer than you need them, go by Ernesto's tailoring, 5th floor (left from the elevators, then right, it's on the left hand side) in the Flood building (863 Market) in SF. He does a fantastic job and works cheap. You can then let them out more easily if they shrink later on. -John \_ i'm about 5'9" and wear 30x32, and they fit well \_ 5'10" and just focusing on inseam, I try to get 30s, but often have to buy longer. They just bunch up a little and actually look cool. They don't drag along the floor. \_ 5'11". 31x32 or x34 depending on the brand. \_ 5'9" and I wean 30x36. I'm a sysadm. \_ it's time to bulk up at the gym, buddy \_ i'm 5'8 and wear 31x31 \_ 5'8" and wear 32x32, but I can fit down to 30x30 (I like 'em baggier and longer) \_ 5'8" and I find that a 30 inseam is perfect for me, and quite easy to get. \_ 5'9", size 4 or 6 tall (I'm all legs) -chialea \_ they say that women's numbering system is changing so that size 8 will become size 6, size 6 will become size 4, etc. This is done presumably so that women will feel skinner and will be happier to buy a lower sized dress than they really are. Such marketing strategy works pretty well. \_ general question women's numbering system. Is there a reason why women's clothes have such weird numbers? With men, the numbers actually mean something. It's the length of the legs or the width of your waist, etc. The number system on women doesn't mean anything. What exactly is a size 4 dress or a size 6 pants? Anybody know the history of this? \_ In general, it's waist measurement in inches - 20. This is for american sizes. I haven't read up on the history of this, but it probably goes back to the end of corset culture. Waist size has always been a status symbol, whether large (fertility/matriarchal cultures) or small (our current psychotic obsession with emaciation). --scotsman \_ The sizes are arbitrary so fat women can say they're only a smaller. size 12 when size 12 is *huge* and 16 is off scale. Most women are 12+ these days. Sell to your market. \_ Can you actually go below size 0? I know one or two who are, and I can imagine skinnier and more anorexic girls \_ I think they have "petites" so a petite-size-0 is even smaller. It's not just anorexics that wear that size, shorter women sometimes need that size, else their clothes are too long. My ex-gf was size 2 or more but since she was short she often wore size 0. Except these shirts were a bit tight on her big boobs. \_ I think dresses smaller than size 0 should be sized much as paintbrushes, e.g. 00, 000, 10/0. -geordan \_ My mom is 5'1" and 92lbs. She wears 0. I asked once about that and she said nothing below a 0. \_ i'm 5'9" and wear 31x30, getting fat. My shoe size is never available when the shoe is on sale. \_ ARE YOU A SYSADM? \_ 7'0" and wear 38x38. posted just cuz. |

7/30 I'm a caucasian guy. I kissed my first Asian girl recently. No complaints, but she tasted different from caucasian women. Her skin, her lips, all of her tasted different and it was noticeable even with her lip gloss. She tasted like Asian people sometimes smell (not offensive). She was born in the USA and is All-American so it is not like she was eating strange foods. Is their chemistry so different? Do caucasians taste funny to Asians? \_ I read a psychology today article about 8-9 years ago saying that immunological markers can be smelled, and can act as pheromones. People with immune systems that can handle different antigens than one's own may be a base for attraction, since biologically it's a benefit for offspring to get genetic material from parents whose immune systems cover different areas. So. Maybe the difference in pheromones are perceived as "tasting good." Anyways, it's a random theory. -sax \_ How does it explain that I'm attracted to my sister more than my wife? \_ you've been watching too many Melrose Place reruns... \_ It doesn't. That's a different theory known as "The Sick Bastard Theory Of Attraction". \_ Maybe certain brands of cosmetics is more popular among Asians then Caucasians? \_ It's THAN, people. Say it. Than. \_ Which pair of her lips did you taste again? \_ Did she taste like spunk-encrusted surface of your monitor? \_ Only when I was done with her. \_ Yes they have very very different chemistry. Of course they're different! I had a whitie gf and she didn't taste very good, I'm guessing it's cuz of all that burger/pizza/cheese stuff that was kind of offensive. On the other hand they were, in general, more horny and I found it more satisfying in bed than uptight Asian girls. On the other hand whities were self-righteous and kind of more bitchy than Asian girls when they have PMS. I guess you just have to find out what you like and just go for it. -studly asian man \_ Who are you, Studly Asian Man? -lonely asian girl \_ How-many-inches studly are you? \_ I've never had any problems finding horny asian chicks. They fuck with the best of 'em. \_ I think regardless of whether the Asian person was born in the U.S. or in Asia, there's a huge chance that he/she has eaten Asian food the majority of her life. (from living in the Asian community) I was told (by a white gf) that I have Asian taste (when we kissed) and of course since I've never kissed an Asian girl, I wouldn't know how THEY taste. These days, thanks to Altoids or Orbitz, you can simply mask all these undesirable "taste" in your mouth. \_ I use battery acid. After she's had a drink her natural taste is completely masked by the acid flavor *and* she won't be bitching at me for anything. Ever. |

7/30 What is the definition of a "separation" of two married people? \_ Oh BDG, where art thou? \_ It means they are separated. Easy, huh? If your wife leaves you for a man with a bigger vocabulary, but doesn't ask for a divorce then you are separated. If you agree to spend time apart to sort out your feelings you are separated. Separated means you broke up, but that you haven't filed for divorce. Separated people sometimes get back together, just like dating couples who break up. \_ It's not that simple. There is a 'legal separation'. Often people separate to see if they can work out their differences and get back together when they have. \_ You can't work out your differences with someone you're avoiding. It's divorce for people without the guts to get it over with. \_ Some people have gotten to the point where they can't be in the same room without arguing. Separation for a while can allow cool-down and make it possible for people to talk rationally again. \_ If it's that bad they *should* be divorced. \_ It means you're both out fucking other people but promising not to use that in divorce court. The marriage is dead and the ex-couple is probably staying together in the legal sense for other reasons which have nothing to do with emotional attachment. \_ If somebody has "filed for divorce" but their spouse won't sign the "papers", then what happens? mutiality isn't required, right? \_ Divorce still goes through; mutuality is not required. \_ I thought it varies by state? Divorce laws are local, not federal. |

7/25 Why do 5 feet women want 6 foot men? I don't get it. \_ There's this asian-caucasian couple I see a lot at the gym. She's like 4'10" and he's 5'11"-ish. They're always practicing their ballroom dancing in the middle of the machines area. Bizarre sight on quite a few levels. \_ Yellow fever? \_ Creepy. Sounds like my cousin and her husband. \_ The women want their babies to be tall. \_ The women wants to feel their long dick. \_ I am a short guy with a big dick. How can I communicate this to women that I want to have sex with without seeming crude? \_ stop wearing pants? \_ All women want taller men. It's a Darwin thing and it makes a lot of sense. \_ to the extreme of a foot difference? \_ It has nothing to do with her height. It has to do with his. You think ugly guys have a preference for ugly women? No, they all prefer attractive women no matter what they look like themselves. No different for women. \_ what, you don't think these guys are pedophiles and/or insecure so they want a small unintimidating girlfriend? \_ not at all. short != looks 8 y/old. short != timid. \_ Plenty of women prefer shorter guys. Most prefer tall guys, this is true, but don't drag Darwin into this. Many societal standards of beauty have nothing to do with survival. \_ Plenty? Maybe you're hanging out with the 6'6" amazons or something but "willing to date" is not the same as "prefer". Name a society where being short is a positive beauty trait for a man. I'm sorry some of the short guys here don't get laid and think women are evil for it but that's just the way things are. \_ being bitter about it, yeah real attractive \_ Jews - David shorty kicks Goliath arse. Jacob shorty toys with his brother Esau. Big strong tall Samson stupidly falling for Delilah's trap. Compare the bible versus classical greek literature. The bible never mentions tall as a positive description, whereas greek literature is full of such references, not only in descriptions of men but also of women. Instead the bible likes to talk about the weak becoming strong, the foolish becoming wise, and shorty Zacchaeus receiving Jesus. \_ The bible is a morality play, not a cultural reference guide. Go ask some real Jews if being short is a plus or a minus. They'll give you the same answer as everyone else. Tall is good. Short is bad. Stop trying to make Jews into some sort of freaks. It's bad enough with the haters and ignorance already. -Jew \_ You are black sheep Jew. Be a good Jew. \_ Just admit it. The bible is the core of Jewish culture. You can't escape it. And there is nothing wrong in being different, or "freaks", if you prefer. \_ In personals ads the number one request - even more common than a fat checkbook, a full head of hair, sexual prowess, or a great personality - is that the guy must be taller than the woman, and preferably 6' or over. It's rare to find women that like shorter guys. \_ That's only because it's not PC to ask for the other things you mentioned. \_ Ducking? Nah, it's just not as big a deal as you make it out to be. \_ That never stopped anyone from asking for it. Also, you're ducking (poorly I might add). They never request short. No woman wants a short guy. \_ It's just not as big a deal as you make it out to be. |

7/8 What are the pros and cons of a 1-piece suit vs a 2-piece suit? \_ swim suit? \_ if you're female: with a 2 piece you have a much easier time when you have to use the restroom (as opposed to a 1 piece which you'd have to wrestle). 2 piece suits are also varied now with tankinis for more coverage and bikinis...well, for less coverage. \_ Women with those fantastic hour glass figures look better in the tanktinis rather than 1 or 2 pieces. 1 piece looks like well just ugly, 2 piece she's always holding on to her top. \_ I have never heard of a 1 piece suit vs 2 piece suit as in jacket and pants. 2 piece suit is a jacket and pants. 3 piece suit is a jacket, pants, and vest. 1 piece -- no pants? \_ Yeah pants-free is the new black! conservative, or 50+, you might want to consider a 1 piece. If you're young and hot, a two piece is going to show more breast, stomach, thigh, etc. of course, there are 1 piece g-strings, but those are pretty rare. also, there are a lot of retro style 2 pieces that have become popular in recent years, including the 70's "boob tube" and the 50's style shorts (kinda look like board shorts)... a lot parents like these for 'tweens because they don't show as much leg/ass. -- MBE (Motd Bikini/Bathingsuit Expert) \_ "I can see you're really excited to work for the company..." \_ 1 piece = jumpsuit \_ a one piece covers up a lot more, so if you are overweight, conservative, or 50+, you might want to consider a 1 piece.

You can both then spend his money together after the divorce. \_ She already knows he's an ass. Okay, he's all right, but a lot left to be desired. But still, money makes up for it. There is no such thing as true love, because in the long-term the woman will go for the money for the marriage. Even if she's her own woman (Software Engr, businessperson) who makes big bucks, because his extra money allows her to do whatever she wants, even quit her job, raise kids, take whatever job or classes she wants w/o worries. \_ maybe you like gold digging hoes or otherwise high maintenance women. i can't imagine that you couldn't live comfortably on ~200K/year, unless your idea of comfort is rather extreme. \_ 200k before taxes? Not that much. Have you seen the price of homes? Not to mention that they need to hire a housekeeper so there is no arguments about housecleaning. Then another cook so they dont argue about dinner. Then a nanny so they dont have to argue about child-care. Then they need the money for boarding school so once the kids are old enough, they dont have to take care of them. Not to mention the normal things women like -- for the home, for vacation, for clothes, for jewelry -- so they can impress their gfs and relatives. Hey PhD from Stanford, makes $$$$/year, isnt that a woman's dream husband? Not to mention the mother-in-law's dream? \_ What was his Ph.D. in? How does he make 450k / year? \_ Some math/finance thing. He makes money off the market itself. Sort of like arbitrage, except he's the grunt who helps the guys with $100+ million make more money. They have the money, he has the brains/training. He gets a base salary and then bonus and percentages. Not bad eh? \_ i think you need find a russian or chinese bride, who needs a green card, but one who has a university education so she can at least pretend to talk and be interested in you. Something with a reasonable exchange. either that or some fucked up girl who didnt finish college, is struggling to earn $35k/year in the bay area and who would be pleased to have someone like you take care of her. Perhaps a stripper. Someone with a good body, can't make money easily, and would be impressed with you. Don't expect it to last. Either that or a single-mother, but that's probably a lot more trouble than it's worth, esp. if the husband is still alive and around and is a jerk (most are). Also, how old are you? Maybe can introduce you to someone. Friendster? heh. |

5/13 To the married people here, at what age did you get married? 30 wife is 14 29 -ax 29, wife was 25 -some guy 26, wife was 23 - some other guy 26 --erikred born pregnant 23 30, wife was 29 22 -emarkp (wife was 22 also) \_ are you nuts? \_ We just enjoyed the birth of our second child, and are planning our 30th birthday parties/8th anniversary. Why would I be nuts? -emarkp \_ it doesn't seem young to you? -23 and freaked out about commitment \_ Nope. \_ they're also mormon, no? \_ Yes, we are, and that's actually important. Same life goals, few differences of philosophy. That reduced the concerns we might have with a long-term relationship. -emarkp \_ it also motivates people to marry young so they can bonk... which they wouldnt otherwise be able to do. \_ Like people who want to "bonk" need more motivation... 29, wife was 28. - yet some other guy \_ seems like most are < 30. Does anyone marry after 30 over here? \_ How large is the pool of people > 30 here? \_ Interesting that all the women are younger. My love interest is older than I am. Also, I'm 30 and not married yet. \_ There's nothing wrong with marriage at 22. People who are freaked out about commitment are either a) immature or b) haven't found the right person yet. It's often both. It's hard to describe this feeling of love for a person you know you want to spend the rest of your life with. You'll know it when you find her. :-) -happily married guy -happily married gay \_ See what happens in 10 years. \_ BDG is that you?!?! \_ You are gay. \_ You're right, there's nothing wrong with marriage at 22 IF both of you are remarkably mature. The thing is (and don't hate me for saying this, but) most 22s only think they're remarkably mature. If you're 22 and thinking about marriage but are not required to do so by your religious convictions, wait and live in a sin together a while first. Then, after a couple of years, you'll know whether you really want to spend the rest of your life with someone who squeezes the toothpaste tube the wrong way, snores, and hates it when drink directly from the milk carton. \_ I totally disagree. A long time ago I read somewhere (can't find the source anymore) that people who live together before they get married have a higher divorce rate after they get married. One of the reasons was that because they still had this mentality of splitting up if things don't work out. And that's the main reason why people live together and don't get married. Believe it or not, there are people in the world that believe in the sanctity of marriage. And that marriage is forever. There will be problems. But if both of you are committed, they can all be worked out. -happily married guy \_ http://www.marriagebuilders.com/graphic/mbi5025b_qa.html http://www.frc.org/get/if00h4.cfm obGoogle \_ While it is certainly true that people who cohabitate are more likely to get divorced, I think you are confusing correlation with causation. Divorce rates have stabalized since the 80s, yet cohabitation rates have increased. http://www.virginia.edu/topnews/textonlyarchive/February_1999/Economists.txt \_ Are those the major problems that people encounter in relationships? I'm sure people divorce for more serious reasons than those. \_ and some divorce for even less serious reasons. this sounds like a statement by a 22 year old who has it all figured out. \_ The top two reasons for divorce are: 1) infidelity and 2) money problems. \_ The younger you are when you get married, the more likely you are to end up divorced. \_ And you have a study to quote to back this up? \_ There are dozens, just look.

4/17 Girls, have you ever decided to not set up a cool guy with someone so he would be single and available if you should breakup with the person you are seeing? [available either for a relationship or just platonically to hang out with?] \_ I know someone who did the opposite - tried to set up the guy to avoid temptation, yet ended up breaking up with her current bf to be with the guy anyway. Trying to manipulate people can backfire in unexpected ways. \_ I'm glad he got laid but hope he dumped her before she found someone more interesting. \_ This brings up an interesting point. I'm not so sure that being stolen from a boyfriend/girlfriend necessarily means that a person is likely to do it again. So a poll: Please vote: 1) Some relationships are inevitable, and will lead to a breakup of existing relationships in order to happen: . 2) Someone who dumps an SO to be with you will dump you: 3) All's fair in love and war: 4) RIDE ED! USE BIKE! LINUX IS THE STANDARD!!11!! 5) George Bush is a patriarchical protorapist! End Racism:. \_ I'm currently in a similar situation. I'm the guy. And she's married. But remember, if people are in love, no matter what you do as the third-person, you cannot break them up. At first, she was trying to set me up with her single gfs but we ended up together instead. |

4/9 I borrowed a friend's truck and accidentally messed up his bumper in a low speed collision and now he wants $300 for the repair. It's only a bumper so I think it's not a big deal, and besides I'm a poor student. I gave him $50 in cash but now he said he is going to take me to the small claims court to get the rest of the money. Here is my question, does he have a good case against me? -poor student \_ We're being trolled, right? This guy can't be that fucking stupid can he? Oh, $300 for the bumper is cheap. \_ Probably a troll, but it's a slow motd day anyhow. \_ Didn't we just have a guy on the motd last week bitching about how his friend damaged his car that he let him borrow? \_ Yes. And if the op story is true, the student should shell out the bucks. If you're too poor to pay for breaking something you shouldn't be touching it. Set up a monthly payment plan. You *will* lose in court and then owe him the filing fee, too. \_ How much is the filing fee, and how long does the filing/court/etc take? I don't have a lot of cash at hand, I just want to delay this ALAP -op \_ It used to be $18. It's probably higher now but not too much. Assuming you're not a troll you should talk with your friend and work something out. $300 is like a week or two's worth of work. This *is* your friend, right? You borrowed his shit and broke it. Be a man. \_ Bumpers are often expensive to repair, even for minor dents. If think your friend is trying to cheat you offer to pay the bill and not a fixed amount. You really should reimburse your friend as you caused the accident and damaged his property. Breaking stuff and not paying is really very selfish. \_ by the way I don't have a license and he knew that. So legally, by lending me the truck isn't he assuming my liability? Just want to know how good my case is -op (poor student) \_ You pretty much have no case. You were driving illegal. Why don't you make amends with your friend and offer to pay him back in installments. Next time get a license and sign up for http://citycarshare.org if you really need to drive. \_ fuck your case. (you have none). Is it really worth losing friends over $300? Trust me, he won't be the only one you lose once other people find out. Ethically, I think you're responsible for the damages, regardless. As a friend, you shouldn't be screwing him over [he's out $250 for letting YOU borrow his car]. And as a friend, he should be giving you a reasonable amount of time to pay it, given that he knows you're a poor students. -dwc \_ Friends are cheap. $300 is $300. \_ remind me not to be your friend anytime in this life. \_ No. If I got your GF pregnant do you have to pay child support? \_ You should offer to service him sexually until you can pay him back. \_ Your idea of a friend seems to be vastly different than mine. Are you sure you don't mean, "former friend"? \_ with friends like you, who needs ... \_ the motd's been way too boring lately. could op and truck owner stage a Thunderdome-like resolution of this to satisfy motd bloodlust? \_ I wanna see a Original Star Trek fight where we can all go "dudu dah dah dah dah Dah dudu DAH DAH" while they circle one another. \_ Are you Chinese? \_ Yea sure, blame everything on us. \_ Why not?

4/5 In today's society, how do Asians and "Americans" view dating / sex / marriages / etc. between a couple with the same last name? This question is directed at a couple who are not known to be related by blood by at least three generations and that along the line, no sons took on the mothers' last names to preserve their names. \_ Actually, I've never given any thought to that. As a white guy, I'd probably consider having the same last name as a small plus-- no dealing with a name change after marriage. Anyway, aren't there tests you're supposed to take prior to marriage to check that sort of thing out? \_ Blood test are not required in every state. And one does not have to be married to beget children. \_ Coincidence. \_ They should immediately break up to save themselves from a miserable and painful future. \_ with general apathy, as usual. "who cares?" \_ For Chinese, at least, having same lastname is rather common. For those who are more traditional, we tend to ask where is their ancestorial home down to the county level. The general rule of thumb is that if two are from same ancestorial home and having same lastname, then, there might be a concern. For the not-so-traditional minded, they probably have sex anyway. \_ "2 Wongs make it white". \_ you forget the word "can" \- um assuming this is a serious question: in theory in hinduism, people with certain last names [like banerjee] cannot get married to one another because all banerjees are of the same "gotra" [which roughly means they are all descended from the same relig figure] however some last names are really titles and dont imply family relations [like the name "ray"]. on the other hand in this day an age there is a way to finesse this/loophole to get around this. --psb \_ Two people from the same Gothra aren't necessarily related. There is some historical evidence that implies that the term is derived from the ancient practice of requiring students to pay teachers in cattle (go). Students who had the same teachers ended up in the same gothra. \- ok i should have qualified this a little bit. the bengal kulin system is different from the caste system in other parts of india [YMWTS: "Bangalir Itihas", Nirarranjan Ray]. for at least sandilya gothra and bharadvarja gotra they need to take advantage of some loophole due to the relationship theory. i am not sure in what context and sense you offer your comments so i am unable tocomment further. --psb \_ I was merely clarifying the point that gothra and lastname do not imply genetic relationships in all parts of India even for Brahmins (ex. people converted by Ramanuja were assigned gothra's if they did not already have one) \_ sooo, uh... does anyone have a sendmail question? \- indian name/caste/genealogy make sendmail look simple. try to follow an "explanation" [sic] like this http://tanmoy.tripod.com/tradition |

3/18 TPTB Silence the Dixie CH1X: http://csua.org/u/b0b (news.yahoo.com) \_ It goes like this: you have the right to say just about anything you want, however, you do *not* have the right to be heard. They're getting paid to sing, not share their political philosophy. People uninterested in their political philosophy are not required to pay them for that or their singing or anything else. She's not President Sheen so she's screwed. \_ It goes like this: don't badtalk the Pres. or advertisers on country/western stations will freak and pull your music. Ani Difranco's been saying bad stuff about the Pres., but her target audience is expected to support that message, so she doesn't get pulled. \_ They run a business. This is something Ms Ch1x didn't get. She has no right to use their airwaves and equipment to get her philosophy out, and doubly so since the listeners are likely to get pissed off and kill the station ratings and stop buying products on those stations. Perhaps you'd prefer a Soviet style music selection chosen by a committee which determines what you're allowed to listen to? No one is stopping you from supporting Ms. Ch1x. Go into a store and *buy* her music. I support Ms. Ch1x right to say what she wants. I do not support her putting people out of work when stations go under so she can attempt to spread her political opinion on other people's time and dime. \_ Actually they're _our_ airwaves. \_ Which makes this a tragedy of the commons. \_ *laugh* perfect. \_ oh please. \_ uh huh, great response. \_ Wake up. Natalie Maines didn't use radio to peddle her beliefs; she made comments at a concert in London. Read the article and realize that you're talking up the wrong issue. \_ I already knew exactly when she made her comments. My comments still stand. If you're going to mouth off about topics beyond your job scope you have to expect that there might be repercussions. For example, I'm very conservative but work in a very liberal company. I shut the fuck up and do not in any way share my political beliefs with others because I put my income above my right to mouth off. She chose the other path and has that right as an adult but has to understand as an adult that other adults have the right to boycott her. I'd think the left would understand the boycott concept *really* well by now. Are you upset at all that the left is trying *really* hard to get a boycott going on Michael Savage's new TV show? Does that upset you the same as Ms. Ch1x getting pulled off the air? \_ Hells bells, of course they have the right to boycott her. However, the radio boycott was called by owners of radio stations before the public even had a chance to tell us how they felt about her comments. Of course, the owners also have the right to boycott, but when they do it, they're making themselves represent "the people" by forcing their listeners to implicitly take part in the boycott. That's tyranny of ownership, not tyranny of vox populi. The message they sent was "toe the line or don't get played," not "the public disapproves." [fd] \_ how do you know they weren't flooded with phone calls and letters everytime they played Ms. Ch1x? you're just assuming they pulled her instantly when it was almost a week later in reality which is plenty of time for US post to show up. \_ If a left-leaning network exec pulled the plug based on fears that people would pillory the network for playing the show, I'd be disgusted. If the same exec pulled the plug because the show lacked quality or couldn't pull in the ratings, I'd say go figure. If the left managed to get people to write in and say they were going to boycott the network unless the show got pulled, I'd say they were exercising their rights as citizens. I may not agree with what they say, but I support their right to say it. \_ He isn't pulled yet but the left are beating on the advertisers this second. How about Dr. Laura? Her show didn't even get a chance to air before advertisers were pulling out due to boycotts. I'm a-ok with that as long as you're a-ok with Ms. Ch1x losing precious air time a week after she opened her dumb mouth. She's a singer. She should sing. If she wants to, she can put it in a song and if people like it, they'll buy it. That's the way it works in this country. \_ Isn't it kind of cruel to say that a musician should just sing but not express her political views? Isn't that like Soviet style music? Why is she obligated to keep her mouth shut to save people's jobs? \_ People are allowed and encouraged in this country to express themselves in many ways. One way is to use your music career to give your political beliefs a boost. Another way is to close your wallet to send a message to someone who is using their music career express her political beliefs that you disagree with her doing so. Few things are more American than what she did or than what the radio stations did. I salute both Ms. Ch1x and the radio managers who pulled her. \_ She has the right to say what she wants. Similarly, the public has the right to protest her statements and call her an idiot. She then is allowed to decide, based on business interests, that it is more profitable to retract her statement. The free market works. \_ Freedom of speech, and, for that matter, all other protections granted in the bill of rights are protections against the Federal government. Private individual or corporation shuts you, fuck you, deal. Ted Turner owns CNN. He does not need to give you airtime. Get over it. At this point, you might now be inclined to ask why people have been worrying about corporate consolidation in the media. [formatd was here -- under 80 columns next time] |
