I'm well aware not all women are this way, not even all women in their 20s. I was speaking on things is heard about and seen that are common in that age group, though.
Do you think finding a spouse is more difficult now than in the past?

Had a Christian woman reject me on these two counts... another just on the height. And they wonder why they were in their late 30s and still single.
The iPhone thing is new on me. I got one, am happy with it, but if someone judged me on the phone I used, that is a serious red flag about their sanity.
I dont think its the exact same thing
Sometimes a woman just wants to sleep i.e have beauty sleep and NOT have someone inside her.
If she wants to be pregnant it can be her choice but I was actually talking about girls as opposed to women, especially girls growing up. Men take advantage of them. Sure boys and girls often dont know what they are doing its just about having fun or playing around. But girls do have to be more careful around older men because of the power differential.
If you talking consent thats a bit different..we live in a world where there are pills and patches and condoms now and adult shops and graphics on the tv and online. But recall in the Bible that Rachel had fertility drugs (mandrakes) because she couldnt be pregnant, and when she did, she died in childbirth. Wheras Leah had many children and Jacob did not love her even while she bore his children.
Mrs Pharoah was also wanting to play around with Joseph for gratification, not love.
Bathesheba fell pregant to King David, and told him, and the first thing he did was try to pass it off as her husbands. She wasnt the one enticing David, he was the perve. She was just having a bath right?
I was not referring to kids but women are still just as bad as men. Yes men can be pigs but so can't women. People are wicked, sin is wicked. It isn't sex against sex, race against race, height against height, but a spiritual battle against sin. You want say women arent as bad as men, go to a female prison and see why they are locked up. I'm sorry but women are just as evil as men

It's not just men who pray ......women do as well. It is less common and society would say that a man just got lucky but it does happen to men as well. It is less spoken and heard by men. Men think they will sound silly or told man up.
Sin is not different from sin. That's why the lord says when we break one law than we break them all. Sin is sin. Mankind puts a bar on sin. Example : lying is a less sin than murder. To the lord sin is sin
Women are certainly just as depraved as men. That I agree.
However, even as unjust as American jurisprudence often is, it even recognizes the scope, the range of sins.
People often try to excuse their sins as minor to not warrant God's judgement. But they are condemned to hell for but one sin. Romans 6:23; Revelation 21:8
That is because they hope to get their based upon their self righteousness (OR Self plus Jesus). John 3:18
They remain condemned regardless of how moral they try to live, how many times they try to turn from their sins and commit their lives to the Lord.
So, yes that one sin brings condemnation as does faith in self reform. James 1:10
For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
This is where pastors teach that false dogma from when they don't use context or the entire Bible for understanding.
I heard that too, from a Calvinist pastor ( not to lump all into the same pile.)
There are however degrees of sin.
When you read the laws of God there are various punishments depending upon the crime. Theft requires restitution to the victim. If someone walks out of a store or someone's house with a coat, he is caught and not only returns the coat, but 4 more of same value. If that person kills someone to take their coat from them, then it's the death penalty.
Does that make sense?
It does make sense. I will talk to my pastor about this so please have patience until I have the opportunity. I am going through and writing questions down so can I learn. This is something I would like to talk about and write down some scriptures for support. I do know that blaspheming the holy Spirit is an unforgivable sin. But I have always heard that sin is sin no matter how we think somethings bad on a degree table, the lord says sin is sin and can't look at sin.
Hello Jake! Jesus told Pilate that the man who turned Him over to him was guilty of a greater sin.
This is said in the context of a conversation concerning authority (given from above) so, it seems that this would be categorized under "putting no other god before Me."
There are spouses all over the place. Finding them is not difficult at all.
Oh... wait... you mean finding a spouse for yourself....
Well, let's put this in context: how difficult was it finding your last spouse? That's the only way we can compare present to past.

Women are wired differently and therefore sometimes are guilty of a different set of sins. Sin is sin, but there are many to choose from. So, women and men share some, and there are some that one sex may be more habitual in than the other.
