Dont fall for this .... this is pharasitical display of self righteousness... Like you need to tell others what he would approve of or not? Isnt this the log in your eye thing?
This reads like something one of those muzzie ayatollahs might write.
uh yeah no
it’s not
I am not a person that flashes a lot of flesh or that objectifies others
the SI swimsuit edition is sexualized garbage
Ok so would that also include michaelangelos David? Have you been protesting that? Or can only women be “Objectified?”
They often lead to things which do.
“Sometimes a swimsuit is just a swimsuit.” — Sigmund Freud
Of course not.
Would he approve of anyone's swimsuit? Did they have swimsuits in his day?
LOL I thought this was about Si on Duck dynasty.
While that may be true my family saw it 6ft tall projected on the wall at a chinese restaurant the other night. They were playing fox news. we looked away but we didnt choose to see it in the first place.
My wife once nervously asked about me looking at other women.
I replied simply “I appreciate beauty.”
She was satisfied.
I replied simply “I appreciate beauty.”
She was satisfied.
You got lucky. The correct answer is, "The comparison makes me appreciate what I have!"
The answer to the same question that which I dare not use:
“I may be on a diet but I can still look at the menu!”
Actually, my wife isn’t the least concerned. We’re both sixtysomethings but unlike me she is slim, youthful & worth a second look. Dangerous competition for the college babe wait staff wherever we go.
Well said. Except about me, but balding is not something I can do anything about.
My wife is about to turn 56 and is more than a match for most younger chicks. She does work at it and spends a lot of time taking care of herself.
I see the extreme negative comments from what I assume are female FReepers and can only surmise they have image issues and/or were dumped.
The women in the 60’s and 70’s and 80’s were hotter looking. The women in the issues today ahh...
“Lustful looks don’t spread STDs, nor do they create unwanted pregnancies.”
They can, however, cause hurt feelings that can weaken relationships.
Lots of sins start with lust.
So for a man to admire her beauty, even on the very scant hope that someday he might become her suitor, would be acceptable. Though not if he was a real creeper about it, that is, if he was so driven by lust that he acted in a beastly manner.
*****************************
What a sick mind. .....Men and women don’t look at and admire people of the opposite sex, whether in person or in film or print media, with the “hope” of becoming that person’s suitor. Their admiration of a person of the opposite sex does not indicate a ‘lusting’, as you put it, but just an appreciation of the beauty/handsomeness of someone.
I become more disappointed everytime I click on a FR headline and surprisingly find myself on the Religion forum, where so many comments displaying such bias explains why I opted out of organized religion at age 14; 57 years ago. I prefer my own beliefs in God to brainwashing.
