A big amen to that.
Oh, so YOU’RE okay with berating the decisions of raped women?
You mean that there is something wrong with the story of Potifer’s wife attempting to force herself on a boy likely young enough to be her grandson as being a depiction of a male resisting his base lust?
But I don’t know how many sermons I have heard over the decades depicting that.
Surely Joseph must have been the real instigator of the incident, and only repented as she grasped his coat. How could so many pastor’s teach a lie?
Next you will be insinuating that the text means exactly what it says.
Nice leap of illogic there. How do you get that from my response to your post moaning about your feminist guilt? Are you drinking?
That makes three liberal premises you crammed into one statement.
No.
She is insinuating that two adults engaging in drug use and sex does not somehow morph into rape years after their marriage ends, and that Joan Collins does not sound credible.
Rape is really really bad.
False accusations by fading celebrities merit scrutiny. You appear to be demanding that accusations must be accepted at face value.
You wouldn’t perhaps be a member of “Justice for Nifong” by any chance would you? Because there is not one post you have made on this particular thread that is not in lock step with them.
Are men stronger than women? Yes.
Are men less emotional than women? Yes
Those are not excuses. Facts are facts.
The truth is most women are physically weak and too emotional to handle the world on their own.
I find that statement to be categorically untrue.
saving on costuming one movie to the next.
Joan was one of the great movie babes
Well, you are right in line with current pop culture.
So was my late grandmother born in 1895 in a sod house in Nebraska. She didn’t believe that women were “too weak to handle the world on their own.” She wasn’t. Her daughter wasn’t. No woman in my family has been. Only a very small percentage of women I’ve ever known were. Some men I’ve known were too. Women are not inherently weak.
Women are physically weak. That’s what I said.
Weak compared to what - men, that’s all there is to compare to.
So stop trying to change the meaning of my words to appease your anger.
Calm down and move on.
Those are your words.
I agree. People vary, whether male or female. If we are careful and fortunate, we find someone who complements us and the result is a healthy and successful marriage. Joan Collins is not an example of that, and while I have some sympathy for her, this seems more like a bid for attention than anything else.
“False accusations by fading celebrities merit scrutiny.”
(I think you mean “accusations which could be false”.)
“You appear to be demanding that accusations must be accepted at face value.”
Many on this thread completely disbelieve the accusations. Why should they not be encouraged to think differently?
From various posts in this thread:
“Ohhhhh, these poooooor, naive young women.. Wake up, Joan..”
“was it Bill Clinton or Bill Cosby?”
There are many other such quotes.
The majority of people here are stating it could not be true, and it's proven it's not true because she married the guy. I have provided how an abused person can creep further into the abyss once assaulted.
Many here have stated that women have sexual urges too, and enjoy exhibitionist behaviors (see the Miley Cyrus photo and others). Some of this is true, but it seems inappropriate to lambaste someone who is offering advice to ladies on what paths one shouldn't or put up with.
I know women who have been raped in multiple ways. Several of these women haven't told others or held off telling their fiancées until I encouraged them otherwise. These were Christian women who were ashamed and frightened their experience would drive their "dream" away.
Every woman depends on good men to protect her from bad men because a woman is too weak to do it herself.
I agree with your general sentiment that women can be as mentally or emotionally strong as men, but facts prove differently when it comes to pure physical strength and size. World-wide, women are both shorter and have less muscle than men in every culture.
Let's get real, okay?
