You're correct that dual incomes is essential for most families today. I hinted as to why. Why do you think we are dependent on dual income as a country now? Did doubling the work force decrease the demand for workers thereby decreasing wages across the board? As far as biblical instruction...

Made me think of this meme I saw recently.

Very well said brother. Just out of curiosity, have you seen or heard about that insane surgery to lengthen the tibia or femur bone by inserting a rod and slowly extending it over time? People go through great lengths to change things about them and it's wild when considering the many negative...

I do agree with this post. It's just that we can hand craft many scenarios which could make an age gap relationship good or bad depending on external factors. My point is that when we take away those external factors and look at the fact there exist an age gap, one cannot make an...

Let's assume it does generally happen. It doesn't necessarily mean it WILL happen. Some people do only look at the physical and I can see this happening when they do this. But, it's possible to find a God fearing woman who is young and at her peak physical appearance. That shouldn't be all you...

I tend to think dating is significantly harder today than it was 50+ years ago. The push for equality between men and women directly hinders the biblical standards and roles explicitly given to us as Christians. The brainwashing done on women to value work life over family life has doubled the...

Agreed. It's easier to be succinct an filter what you want/don't want online. However, it takes away from the "romanticism" of getting a cup of coffee and learning about each other's wants and needs. Welp, that's what people sign up for when they date online though, right? lol

Isn't it a good thing that he told you what he was wanting? I understand you took it as him demanding you do this, but perhaps he just wanted to be clear on what he's looking for. It sounds like it wasn't a good match and nothing became of it. I do understand the point you're making in that...

I didn't respond to this paragraph as it didn't properly load. I agree this probably happens often. No-fault divorce has ruined marriage in this country. Feminism has infected the church. For the sake of discussion, lets say a 30 year old man marries an 18 year old woman. 20 years later, they...

Studies indicate people in general, men and women, get calmer as they age. They can regulate emotions better, appreciate the important things in life, focus more on the present, etc... This is especially true in marriages but especially not true with single women as they age though. In fact...

My opinion comes directly from observation. People find it "icky" that a young adult and an older adult are together. I 100% understand the ick factor. However, I find country/rap music extremely icky. I find pineapple on pizza icky. Sushi is pretty icky to me. Nevertheless, there isn't a moral...

Sure, perhaps in a particular case the 18 year old is at a disadvantage. It's certainly possible. Nevertheless, was there anything offensive in what I said? To engage in your point though, anything is possible, right? Maybe the older adult is at a more disadvantage in terms of resources but...

In a male or female lens, I don't think there is anything offensive that I said. In post #60, I did share my anecdotal perception on people I've engaged in discussion with over this particular topic and perhaps someone who fits in that description would be offended. This wasn't a personal attack...

I think polygamist women are mentally conditioned into it though. Often times, there is jealousy (understandably so) and strife amongst them. They learn to suffer in silence and are told to "stay sweet" any time they struggle with the complexities that polygamy brings. I'm amazed there are still...

Definitely not a Mormon as I speak out against their teachings and false prophet. This person is highly confused and chose to personally attack me rather than engage in a good faith discussion about age gap relationships. She offers no moral counter argument, only ad hominem.

Is this how you discuss/make your arguments? I'm a non-denominational Christian for the record. What made you so hostile for asking a valid question?

Trailer Sicko (2007) Free Entire Movie Michael Moore releases SiCKO for free, responds to being included in Luigi Mangione's manifesto Quote from Mangione's manifesto: "But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. "...

This is true when Republicans were fearmongering during/after the Bush admin, but seeing Democrats and Republicans in the same economic class coming together about the corruption that is going on here makes me think perhaps the majority of people are open to something other than privatized...

Kind of a banger honestly...

I'm a fan of the band but I don't know anything about him personally. Is there something outside of him being 60 years old dating an 18 year old woman that makes you think he's a creep out of curiosity?
