Although I can accept that there are true lesbians out there, in general when a woman throws the word Bi around and it comes out she has either mommy or daddy issues I too would lean towards the idea that she is just “confused.” I get too the point the writer made about woman being “perennially troubled” and thinking…

Hmm...I can see how someone with a critical eye and a desire for decorum could be upset. I think the “stitching” excuse is a bit weak. Had it been me I would have simply let it go, taken a picture of the cake and after the event told the bakery that “in the future, this might be better done a different way.”

The problem with “rape” in the US is that it usually occurs in the college age population of 18-26, alcohol is involved and the woman willingly entered into a “he said / she said” situation at hours typically associated culturally with “sexy time.” From there it is a much more realistic stretch to believe mistakes…

I am not making a judgment but a statement of fact recorded by the school’s disciplinary court. If he in fact did sexually assault her God may indeed be his only judge for the facts don’t seem to support the claim.

That is the point, he did not sexually assault her. His argument is that she lied, he was exonerated and yet the school continued to allow her to attack his character.

I am a huge proponent of women and men. That is the difference b/n you and me apparently, you don’t care anything about men. Which is fine. All my comments are geared to harmonize gender differences and support and encourage both to live together in mutual respect. If anything else is “interpreted” from my words, that…

You are truly a Cad, but your twisting of my words for your own purposes to paint me in a negative light make you far from good natured! In any case, you obviously see this differently from me. That is life.

Wow, you are just antagonizing now. You could care less about what I am saying, and it seems prefer just twisting it.

Are you joking? He took complete responsibility for his affair to the point of resigning. He actually took responsibility for her affair as well, to the point of taking a sabbatical to work on his marriage. He only states that during that time while SHE was unwilling to reconcile he “embarrassingly” found comfort in…

Whoa! That is a strange comment. I don’t want to stone either and am very saddened by this story. Sure, men control themselves everyday. In this instance, a perfect example of a man taking responsibility. I stop there. I think you gave up on acknowledging my point a long time ago and I completely agree with your view…

Well, I appreciated the dialogue. I guess I am just as confused at people who don’t get how hard it would be to resist the one thing since puberty you wanted more than anything...more than money, power or food. I am not making excuses for men nor blaming women...I am just saying there is a power in the female form.

I would say you may be using those words incorrectly if that’s what you thought. Is English your first language?

I appreciate his struggle with gender identity. The issue I have is there isn’t any physical confusion. This should have been squashed.

I see where you are tripped up. You completely are missing the mark b/c you aren’t sure when to be literal, figurative or metaphoric. What you have quoted above is obviously in context and from the center of my argument a comment on the history and nature of man. I always argue for personal responsibility but always…

I will let my comment history speak for itself. You are just trying to put me in a box so you can label me instead of really thinking about the words I write. It is a shame.

It takes two to tango. You know nothing about my character. We are all sinful creatures. What man face to face with a beautiful woman who “chooses” to tempt him can flee? Many yes, many more no. History shows us that there is a bit of want in all of us and a helplessness too. Please, be part of the solution not part…

I never argued men or women can’t control themselves, but I honestly accept that their sexual desires can be the ruin of a life well built. I have no idea where your hostility is coming from but if men want to protect themselves and their families from the destruction of sexual sin, they can’t fool themselves into…

I don’t blame women for anything. We all have desires. Billy Graham put protections in place to guard against not only his but those he would encounter...specifically certain rules when encountering women. And I have given quite a responsible discussion on temptation and the history therein. I just hope that is clear…

If you think I am a “slut-shamer” than you know absolutely nothing about me.

In school kids learn about the great Greek philosophers who thought the highest goal of human thought and deed was virtue. Biblical cultures also encourage thinking on what is good, right and true. This is the point, maybe if you spent more time thinking and less time reacting you would post a much more thoughtful…
