One-night stands immoral, say 9 in 10 women

Well there's a unbiased sample of the thoughts of American women -- girls on spring break. I bet if you took that same poll, say, where the college kids spend spring break on a mission trip to another country, you'd get an entirely different, albeit as biased, result.

"However, it was the sexual revolution coupled with the feminist movement that so devastatingly changed relationships between men and women in my estimation".

We agree on that.

When women threw themselves into roles traditionally reseved for men it turned everything on its head.

The devil likes it when things are turned upside down.

Man and women both have their roles in life. They are different roles.

The Lord made men and women different for a reason. They are supposed to compliment each other, not compete against each other.

Like the double-dipping analogy!

I am thankful every day that some things have changed - so that I can get an education and work in an area that makes me happy. That wouldn't have been possible 100 years ago.

May I ask something stupid??

35-50 years ago, what did kids do on spring break??? I know this hedonism by the GUYS and GIRLS BOTH has been going on since I was a teen, at least. Me and a friend of mine were all set to go on '91 when I had a major(around $500, IIRC) car repair bill that kept that from happening. probably a good thing, too I would had probably gotten into a lot of trouble.

But I AGREE, that the "spring break" crowd is NOT a good representation of "women today".

Hooray for the truth willing out.

[Rca2000]

But for every 1 good thing that feminism has done for women,(educational opportunities, fair pay for same job, etc) it has done 3 BAD things!!

I think it will turn around again. But not for a long time.

[Trillian]

That was insane.. I can totally understand why he moved out :(

[tuliptree76]

Even so, I'm thankful that I do have my educational and work opportunities.

[Supernatural]

I am thankful for that too.

My purpose is not to attack women, but to try to figure out where we are and how we got there.

I grew up in a different era where the man made enough money at his job so that the woman didn't have to work.

Things have changed. Both now have to work to make ends meet.

Necessity is the mother of invention.

"They are supposed to compliment each other, not compete against each other."

Agreed.

Hey, you look great. Have you been working out?
Nice suit, it fits you perfectly.
What a great tan you have. Not everyone tans like that.
You're about the smartest person I know.

"It would take a few nuclear wars and the obliteration of all literature in paper and electronic form to bring back that society outside of the Muslim world. Of course, the Muslim world still fits the bill for what you described."

It will take a lot and a long time, I agree. But there will be a day when people realize the destruction caused by the sexual revolution was too high a price to pay. But probably not in most our life times and hopefully before we self-destruct.

[TAdams8591]

LOL, very funny! And coming from me, that's a complement! : )

[Supernatural]

No doubt I'm a lot smarter than you are.

Your ignorant post goes a long way towards proving that.
