Forget it. She won’t hit you.
bkmk
You have to be kidding.
I’d ask them if they kissed their mom with that mouth. Because dissing women like that is like dissing their moms. After all, their mom is a woman, too.
Maybe it ought to have a cross on it (just joking). It’s not on her soul.
How far we’ve fallen.
She was brought up well. She has kept her virtuous values and she has times when that is awkward. I wish her strength and I hope that she meets someone who would value her as much as you would now.
Unfortunately, it became a norm in the 60s and 70s.
Come on now. Nose rings and tattoos aren’t really comparable to pagan idol worship.
Maybe she’s one of those “recommitted virgins.”
Hey, YO! TEEBOW!!
Gotcher date RIGHT HERE MAN, RIGHT EFFIN HERE!!
In all honesty, I think she’s a “fame” tramp.
Nose Ring? If she is what she says she is, then she does NOT know the significance of that piercing.
OTH, if she is looking for her 15 minutes, well then......
I wouldn’t buy a car without first taking a test drive.
But here’s the worst one.
My friend waited until marriage. She had a baby with her husband. He gave her VD and that’s how she discovered that he was unfaithful. When he was called on it, he left the marriage. She wanted to work on it (marriage was sacred for her), but he did not.
Once she was a single mother, it’s like the floodgates opened in the eyes of men.
She was a pure soul and had saved herself for marriage. The man was scum and he left HER. When she tried dating again, NO MAN would tolerate waiting.
Why? She wasn’t a virgin, so what did it matter? In his eyes, she was damaged goods and had to right to ask for respect or chastity.
“Good Christian” men could not understand that she still valued sex within marriage and she never found a husband. (25 years later, she’s still sweet and single and unloved because she refused to bend her morality to the fashion of the day.) Even the men in her church became impatient. They’d make a commitment as far as ‘girlfriend’ went, but not marriage. Not a full year of holding out for that special love. (And no. She’s not ugly. Cute as a button.)
Just because a woman has a *baby* doesn’t mean that she’s easy or a slut.
At the age of 43, she has only slept with one man and that man was her husband and is the father of her child.
She won’t settle for less, and the men no longer see her as a woman of value.
Why? Because they don’t have to.
What, that is so untrue!! Why are Christian girls even dating or interested in these kind of men? There are plenty of good men out there who shun the kind of women who are typically having sex with everyone they date by the third date and the Christian ones are looking for someone who wants to wait until marriage. This young lady and the men out there like her should be held up as worthy of emulation and given hope and encouragement.
“-——nothing says devout Christian like a nose ring-——
A little harsh....”
I don’t think so.
“Lots of very devout young people do get caught up in their generations fashion statements....”
Not really an excuse or good reason.
“My nephew, a serious christian got a tattoo on his arm as a statement of his faith....when he became saved...”
Makes no sense. Kind of like going out and committing sodomy to celebrate getting saved.
Some people are mixed up and this writer in Slate seems to be one.
She has intentionally dressed down, imho.
I remember there was nothing more annoying than the virgins that brought it up at every opportunity. Most of them had reputations of being the sluttiest ones in school who had done nearly everything (except going all the way) with every guy in school.
Bingo! Excellent response!
Nose rings are biblical.
Not in a favorable manner are they Biblical.
