I don't recall any specific references regarding courtship.

Joseph's betrothal to Mary, with separate living arrangements, and his surprise at her pregnancy, suggests some things that were done and were not done.

A father is called to be protective of his family.

No, but I'm gonna call Arnold Schwarzeneggar one.

The culture prefers steers and geldings.

Double standard? You damn right it is!

You, sir, are a Father.

Of course we have a double standard for our sons and our daughters. They're different.

Anyone who doesn't recognize the differences is being stubborn or dishonest or brainwashed.

Men and women share responsibility equally.

They do not share the same responsibilities.

First, that doesn't answer the question you are replying to.

Second, any sectarian notions you have about who is suppose to do what in the United States do not apply to this discussion.

We are talking about the United States of America, not your family. Whether you like it or not, your conception of "how it's suppose to be" is functionally equivalent to saying there are certain jobs for white people, and certain jobs for black ones...and partner; that just ain't gonna happen.

So you go right on puling about how shameful it is that men can't keep women in line, but don't think for one minute you're fooling anyone. You are whining at the men, because you don't want to tangle with the women. They take your kind of nonsense MUCH more personally.

Racial civil rights = sexual civil rights?

That's one leap of logic any self-respecting conservative chews up and spits out for breakfast.

Women would like to think they run the world.

Men tolerate that illusion in order to push the pawns around the board more freely.

If a society needs to dress up its women in combat fatigues and helmets, it's already lost all sense of morality, sexual or otherwise.

You are whining at the men because you don't want to tangle with the women.

Chewing...chewing...sputter...bajfwd...cough...choke...throwing myself over the back of a chair...

Uhm heLLOoo...You've never seen an EEOC statement posted at work? Maybe they aren't required when all your co-workers are cows, pigs, and chickens, but pretty much everywhere else has them. You might want to aquaint yourself with the eighties sometime.

I'm sorry. You must have the term "conservative" confused with the term "luddite." Seriously dude: welcome to the new world. I don't know how they did it back in the old country, but in case you haven't noticed, we're still top of the heap, and it ain't cause we do it like they did back home. I also don't know what you think all those women are doing on election day, but it ain't askin' daddy/hubby who they should vote for.

Women would like to think they run the world. Men tolerate that illusion in order to push the pawns around the board more freely.

Come on. Tell us all about the Bilderbergers-Trilateralists-Illuminati. You know you want to.

Tell ya what schport...next time you're in the business setting, try patting one of those pawns on the butt and tell her what a nice rack she has. G'head, g'head.

Only if she returns the compliment.
