On a related subject, makeup: You look better without it, and even if you don't, oh well. Why do you spend any amount of time trying to put on a fake face?

First, I like wearing clothes like that because I feel good in them, and I find them more comfortable than clothes that are baggy (but that's just me). Also, if you compare modern women's clothing to clothing of other eras (corsets, hoop skirts, bustles, ect.) then modern clothes are more comfortable than what were worn in the past.

Secondly, I agree with the makeup thing, I rarely if ever wear it, almost only in situations where I'll be under bright lights. However, I've found that putting on makeup helps me calm down when I'm angry (don't ask why, I haven't the slightest clue).

Bad boys:

Love 'em. This is frankly because, in my limited experience, they are better in bed. I don't need a man to support me or be a father to my children. I can take care of fixin' things or have the means to pay to have them fixed. So they only thing I need a man for is sex. Nice guys are just too nice for the kind of sex I like - even when I tell them exactly what I want. (Please, don't e-mail me any offers - I'm happy with what I have right now!)

If nothing, at least you're honest. That aside... what the hell? People should never be this comfortable with sex. You know what sex is akin to? Killing. You do them both for the propagation of the species and continuation of your line. It is despicable that anyone is comfortable with this.

---

I feel so sorry for you. I really, really feel bad for anyone who has this view of sex. It pains me to know how many people won't know real pleasure in their lives. Akin to killing? See, that's despicable. How could the physical act of love be akin to killing? How could anything so deeply spiritual be anything but beautiful? Why shouldn't we be comfortable with that? Seriously. Most of the problems I have with the world today is how very uptight and puritanical it is. Not to say that sex shouldn't be respected, but I don't think it should be hidden away and taboo either, as it's natural.
And it's a great stress reliever if you let yourself enjoy it. You should try that sometime.

Secondly, we can damn well have sex with whomever, whenever, however often we want. Do I think we as a society take sex too casually? Yes. Do i think it should be regulated to only procreation? No. There is a respectable medium in there.

Do I know any rape victims? One too many, I'm afraid, to the point I really believe at least 1/10th of women who claim to be raped these days are lying.

Now, on to the meat an potatoes. In true female fashion, you completely took what I said out of context by letting your emotions speak instead of your brain (big surprise there...). Now, for the TRUE meaning, I do not believe that anyone "deserves" to be raped or that they "invite" rape. That being the ideal, here's the reality: Men DO rape, and they DO rape selectively. More on that in a minute. IN response to the reality of the situation, you have a choice: Accept it, and react accordingly, or ignore it and be at greater risk for the consequences.

Now, back to the selective raping issue. Yes, if you're showing more skin, or more curvature, men are more attracted to you. Admit it, that's the reason you do it in the first place. Now, a man who would rape and a man who wouldn't are two different creatures, IE: If he's the type that would rape a woman, he's going to do it given the opportunity and situation, if he's not, then no opportunity presented could make him. What makes women more of a likely target for the former is things that make them stand out. Skin, tight clothes, etc., and of course to varying degrees. Trust me, this is how the mind of a man works. Tattoo on the lower back? They call it the "tramp stamp". Mouth piercing? "Enter Here" sign. I don't LIKE these things anymore than you, but it is the sad condition of our reality.

Two things...first, speaking as someone that has been there: clothes have nothing to do with rape. It's a violent assault. It has nothing to do with sex. It's all about power.

The problem is that ovindulgence in them... well, scroll up. I wouldn't even vote against these things being "legal" because I think they're matters of SELF CONTROL. You don't NEED to have it, but I think you're going to lead the country into oblivion without it. Thanks for that, by the way.

As to the rape being a "violent crime" thing... my gosh, I remember hearing Adam Carolla and Dr. Drew blast this issue on Loveline. "Raping someone is just like if I hit you in the back of the head.. and them cummed.". Doesn't make sense, does it? If they were JUST looking for control, they'd find other ways of exerting it, but a man raping a woman has a hard on for a reason. I'm not saying the element of control isn't there, but to suggest that the act is totally devoid of sexual impulsion is just ignorant.

His rather angry posts have left me thinking that he would prefer all women to stay at home and cover themselves with burlap! (Yes, I know that's not what he actually said but it is definately the impression he left me with!)

Since this is not the sort of person I would choose to spend time with, I'm ofski! See all of you guys in a week when I get back!

Addiction, and too much of anything is generally bad. Same with sex. Me: I don't do the casual sex thing, people who know me in RL are sometimes suprised by that, as I come off a bit free-spirited. But someone else's choice is no business of mine. (And I have my share of fetishes and kinks as well.)

My problem is the idea that sex or the human form is supposed to be something dirty, or shameful. I don't hold much to the idea that sex should be just for procreation, either. Alot of my hangups earlier in life, and the cause of much drama in my relationships, was me getting used to the idea that sex isn't quite the terribly big deal everyone makes it out to be. (Let's just say that I can really relate to what'shitname from Jaynestown :) Anyways, I'm writing this after a long day of work, so maybe that all doesn't make sense, and I'll stop before I start writing a whole novel here :P

Also, let me just say, that while I think sex isn't that big a deal: there's still the matter of responsibility, respect, and the addendum that it really should only involve two (or more) relatively mature and consenting adults. After that, though... frell, have fun!

Like every other minority, they seem to think that theirs are the truly important issues of the time, that as victims of rape they should be pitied and left un-offended by all. Screw that, you’re human and you’re going to be subject to the same abuse as everyone else. Men get raped in prison all the time. Don’t see too many articles about that, do you? No, actually, I seem to recall more jokes about it than anything else. In short: Get over yourselves. Bad shit happens to everyone. END QUOTE


Okay, okay, okay...I've been reading this for some time, and I think it's time to say something. Are you honestly...HONESTLY telling rape victims to "get over yourselves"? Yes, bad shit happens to everyone, but...come on...I'd say if it's rape, it's pretty fucking bad.

Rape is a form of assault. But, there's so much more involved than the beating of an individual physically. I'm not saying that the psychological effects of assault and rape are that far removed from each other. Powerlessness and self worth issues abound. But, when you're beaten, you heal, and you move on. It is not the kind of thing that sticks in your head and rebounds. I imagine if you looked at the suicide statistics for people post these crimes, you'd see that rape victims are much more succeptible.

I understand that men get raped in prison all the time. Are you telling me that crimes of social interaction amongst convicts locked away from civilization compare? Not only are you generalizing women in this mess, but men as well. Rapists rape. Real men do not. So, before you post something saying that "Men rape" ...think. And, I don't seem to see a whole lot of that going on here.

This was a fun thread. It's no longer. Yes, women lie about being raped sometimes. However, rapists lie about raping a whole lot more, I'd wager.

You have your world view, and I can tell it's not going to be changed. That's your business, of course, but, some of the things you've been saying are toxic, in the extreme, and unnecessary.

I'll be back when I've calmed down a bit.
