You should read some of the early Church fathers and mediaeval theologians on what 'women' are like. The misogyny and hatred is paralleled only in modern times by fundie Christian frothings and ravings about gay men (and lesbians, when they can remember they exist).


Well, even the Apostle Paul, for all his love of the unmarried state, insisted that neither married men nor women should deprive the other of their body.

I'd love to see some quotes backing up this assertion.

Well, I'm sure we'd all love to see quotes backing up all your various assertions and assumptions, but we can't all get what we want.

I've listed some relevant church fathers renowned for their misogyny, some of whom I've quoted in this very forum before, and you've made a single statement about Paul, the Jew hater, not notably backed up by any direct quotes from any of his epistles.

I think for once I'll rest on my laurels, and let you do some work.

How I would love to believe you

Regarding Paul... is it particularly wise to take the advice on marriage of men who gre up thinking it was acceptable to beat women and treat them as property, merely by virtue of age and artificial connection to a fairy tale (connection made by similar men over the following millenium or two)?

Winston, are you asking me for a quote?
Since when did you find religion?


I sent the club a wire stating, PLEASE ACCEPT MY RESIGNATION. I DON'T WANT TO BELONG TO ANY CLUB THAT WILL ACCEPT ME AS A MEMBER.

-- Groucho Marx


Those are my principles. If you don't like them I have others.

I've had a perfectly wonderful evening. But this wasn't it.

Either this man is dead or my watch has stopped.

The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing..if you can fake that, you've got it made.

Military intelligence is a contradiction in terms.

She got her good looks from her father. He's a plastic surgeon.

I worked myself up from nothing to a state of extreme poverty.

Remember men you are fighting for the ladies honor, which is probably more than she ever did.

Paying alimony is like feeding hay to a dead horse.

Last night I shot an elephant in my pyjamas and how he got in my pyjamas I'll never know.

We took pictures of the native girls, but they weren't developed. . . but we're going back next week.

Politics doesn't make strange bedfellows, marriage does.

I was married by a judge. I should have asked for a jury.

Marriage is the chief cause of divorce.

A child of five would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of five.

From the moment I picked up your book until I laid it down, I was convulsed with laughter. Some day I intend reading it.

Go, and never darken my towels again.

Money frees you from doing things you dislike. Since I dislike doing nearly everything, money is handy.

Women should be obscene and not heard.

Believe me, it's not inherent, despite what some misguided gays think. I know quite a few gay men and women, many of whom I'd consider close friends. Some of them definitely have great fashion/design sense, but there are others who just assume that because they're gay, they have that great sense too. And it's so tragic when they really don't.

I'm sure you do, and perhaps you misunderstood me. I definitely know a few gay men that really believe they have great taste in fashion/design simply by virtue of them being gay - and they most certainly do not.

I did not mean to imply that all gays think this way - indeed, I also have gay friends who have horrible taste but know they have horrible taste.

Sex with the right person is never underrated. But sex for the sake of it does get boring.

It's like, when it's not there, you miss it. When it is there, you think "big deal".

When the advice in question is "don't deny your wife sex", I think the answer is 'yes'.

@Diss: Forgive me if I take the fact you're starting threads like this as suggesting you actually do want sex (and that's inclusive of the mental bit Mrs Tub is speaking of - likely that's part of why you do not seem satisfied with bought sex), but try to tell yourself you don't want to.


similar to how women walk around saying: "I don't need a man"

possibly.

but mostly I made this thread to discuss sex in general. I didn't want to delve too far into my personal issues. I like to think I'm not that dysfunctional, though I might be. I don't want this to be another "me" thread.
