I am toying with a completely speculative idea. What if she is totally against him and has been kept under wraps. When she sets up a profile with NYT the fam makes sure she says nothing and everyone keeps to the party line. So the she send the tax returns. Thoughts? Any conspiracy nuts ready to jump on this one?

You know. As a man I can add that this kind of bullshit hurts us as well. Its a given that it is worse for women, but think about what this attitude means for men. God forbid a man want to take time to be with his children right after their birth. I have worked places where the attitude was that women were assumed…

I know you are going for irony, but I think you exactly codified the conservative position.

I don’t know “Love scenes are extremely difficult. You’re always within a millimeter of sentimentality and “yuck.”” could be read as they are hard to perform without going into silliness or cheesiness. The rest is just confessing an exhibitionist streak.

basically its forced sexual activity with any orifice that is not the vagina. It might be a heavier charge of the forcible penetration.

I agree with you completely. When I mentioned male initiated activity, I had not considered people who go with dick picks as a first move. I was mostly thinking about the “ Hey there” kind of approach.

I actually wondered if he meant it like taking her virginity, which is a whole new level of concern

Well even male initiated toward strangers can be okay, as long as the male in question is willing to let it go if the other is not interested. I have said many times that one of the most biggest things we could teach to straight boys growing up is how to handle rejection. Way too often men’s ego is damaged by…

Well in my limited experience ( I have not been single for about 15 years now) I found it gratifying, but rare for a woman to initiate flirtation. At least at that time in the south. Looking back I was probably responsive to women I would otherwise not have been interested in.

I was in college 20 years ago and I took three different gender study classes. Well one Gender Studies, one Gender in Politics, and Diverse images of gender in film. Lots of good stuff out there, are you sure your college did not have something?

Ah, I remember those young idealistic dreams of sacrificing myself for another person. It seems so romantic, but it can be quite a trap. First you are setting yourself up to be taken advantage of, abused, or at the very least resentful of the inequality in your relationship. But the real kicker is that this kind of…

Um..okay that says a bit about you. If I offer to buy a woman a drink and tell her she is beautiful, she is under no obligation to pay me attention, accept my drink or even make eye contact. True many women probably will feel obligated to interact in some way out of politeness, even if disinterested. But speaking to…

Okay, well sexting between consensual adults does not necessarily mean coercion. Also out of genuine curiosity; Do you consider flirting to be artificially manipulating interest.

Okay hes awful, but I am wondering if he has some addiction kind of awful or hes a predator awful. Is there a difference? I do not know if I should have any pity for him or not. Any Help Internet?

Indiana Jones has one

Nora Dunn, Danitra Vance, Randy Quaid, RDJ, Anthony Michael Hall, Joan Cusak, Jon Lovits and ,......flattop guy??

I am also guilty of that. I have ADHD and have to make sure that I have a good working plan to get anything done. But If I am not careful I can end up working all week on the perfect plan, and not actually doing anything.

From what I read it because of the level of the briefings. They are classified, but not top secret and they do not go into operational details. They did have to tell them before hand who they wanted with them, and they had to have clearance. Also apparently if one asks a question that the other did not, they have to…

You are allowed to bring advisors, as long as they CIA knows who before hand, and they have clearance. Bringing a general or a governor is not that weird, bringing both and these specific two is troubling.

Uh dude, a business following normal security procedures could not stop a madman from getting in the BACK door. And they are not expected too.
