Seriously, are these people just insane? Do they realize that they mimmic the Taliban and all the other extreme religious zealots? Maybe we can make them wear Burkas!

I used Noxzema from the time I was old enough to wash my own face, all through school and into adulthood. Then I decided it wasn't 'sophisticated' enough and went with higher priced, higher end products.

While it's true that many of us guys prefer younger women, there are some (like me) that find women over 50 much sexier.

The male has blamed females from the beginning, GEN 3:12. But the truth is ROMANS 5:12. If you read the so-called “Church Fathers” the things they have written about women will get you pissed off! As long has they can blame a female, lets them off the hook and it is taught everyday in and out! The moral decline in this country and around the world is blamed on the female. Two standards are taught in the home, boys will be boys and girl are called whores.
It’s really kind of scary that people are taught this and believe it. What the hell is wrong with the world!
Here’s something that really sticks in my craw.
You hear about all these people who are adopting babies from China. The only babies that are adopted from there are girls.
The Chinese are only allowed to have one child, so they have an ultra sound done and if it’s a girl they abort it. Many that carry to term will place the baby girls in “orphanages” for adoption. It costs around $40,000. or more for each little girl baby that is sold to whomever has the money to pay for them.
My daughter who is pregnant lives in British Columbia. She had her mid-term ultrasound a few weeks ago and I asked if she was going to find out the baby’s sex.
Hospitals and doctors in BC can no longer inform the parents of the baby’s sex when the mom has an ultrasound, why, because too many Asians and Middle Eastern mothers were having abortions if the baby was not male.
WTF!
I just cannot comprehend that type of reasoning.
Whoa!
it’s not quite that simple.
“It costs around $40,000.00 or more for each little girl that is sold to whomever has the money to pay for them.”
We have adopted internationally. Several trips back and forth, adoptions in each country, court systems in each country, Canadian medical people to examine child prior to adoption, agency fee’s, care for the child after the adoption in their own country, while we fly home to ours, to adopt in our country etc. etc. yes it adds up to a whole lot of $$. but it’s not as simple as “sold”.
I did not mean to belittle your efforts to give these babies a home, I’m sure they will be loved and cared for with utmost care.
My point however was that from China, it’s only girls that are allowed to be adopted.
Very little value are placed on girls. They good are for laborers, homemakers and for trade, sorry to say. When a father can not provide for his household they will sell a girl for food money! The sex trade that is going on even in this country underground are young children (mostly girls) from poor families. They see the male as a provider in old age for funds. Check history and be prepared to be very angry. We are taught to rip the female apart/blame her if sex is involved. When a girl/woman gets pregnant without marriage, she is labeled loose/whore, ect. you would think she got that way all by herself, yet we don’t call the male names. If a man is unfaithful, the woman is the tramp, whore, breaker-up of homes but he ever gets the right blame, like he didn’t know he was married! Isn’t just say no! She seduced him, always her fault, poor male. Easier for us to keep him, duh! This is some of the reality. I love males, however, I hold them responsible for their decisions of conduct.
In rural China, the bucket of water is still placed at the foot of the birthing bed.
OMG!
The sooner the female of the species takes control the better! Every religion demeans the women so the men could have the power. It’s time women gathered together and ruled.
OK I feel better for that rant!
Hey…I happen to agree with that!!
Several years ago I read a story called Herland by Charlotte Perkins Gilman.
It was about a lost tribe of women who had managed quite well without MAN. Fantasy perhaps, but really very interesting.
Here is what I found about it when I googled.
“Charlotte Perkins Gilman was a prominent social critic and feminist writer in the United States of the period from the 1890s through the 1930s. In Herland, originally published in 1915, Gilman creates a utopian society made up entirely of women, creating around this homosocial (or one-sex) society a culture, political system, and familial arrangement that grew out of the society of women, rather than simply the absence of men. While other American utopian novels, such as Edward Bellamy’s Looking Backward, were prominently read for years after their publication, Herland was largely forgotten until it was republished in the 1970s. Gilman’s readers in the 1970s found in Herland a fresh and funny satire, full of insights that still speak to the condition of American women even after eighty years.”
Check your local library, they may have it or be able to get it for you.
Thanks Nik!! I’ll check it out…….K

And how many wars are based on religious beliefs. I don’t want to offend anyone, but i know I will and I am sorry for that.
Fanatics are self serving. Yet I can still say God Bless!
Very true…..I bet if you looked back thru history most war were based on religion.
