Your post is causing a pop-up on this thread.
Cyborg, I certainly don't think she is the most attractive person on earth. But I must tell you, I remember all to well what it felt like to be 14. I gotta say, I just could never go through that age again.
It is like someone opens a fire hose and sprays your naked brain with pure testosterone, and there ain't no dance to go to. God.
All I can say is if I was approached at age 14 by her, I cannot honestly say I would have ended up in the same place as that kid did.
I'm not saying that is right or wrong, it just...is. And I know all the bad ramifications and all, but...the reality is one thing and I know I was a pretty dumb kid about things like that.
Undoubtedly. That is why it is a miracle any of us make it to adulthood.
That's why fathers are so important in a young man's life. A praying mother can only do so much. I hope I have all girls myself ((shudder))
Yes it's a miracle indeed. I agree.
Yeah... The only thing we can tell for certain about the cross she's wearing is that it means she's not a vampire.
I meant I could not honestly NOT say I wouldn't end up in the same place as that kid.
You don't have to raise children with sexual integrity if you don't want to. I choose to do otherwise. I didn't need to have sex at fourteen to know I'm not gay. You men never cease to amaze me.
This guy must not be too bright himself. Can't imagine how he could have gotten to that point.
On the other hand, I saw him interviewed on TV, and he did not seem all that abnormal.
I'm sure you will be a good father. On the lighter side...I thought you might enjoy this (I know...I know...this is old hat, but...I think the fathers of girls might enjoy it most...):
Rules of dating a Drill Instructors daughter
Rule One: If you pull into my driveway and honk you'd better be delivering a package, because you're sure not picking anything up.
Rule Two: You do not touch my daughter in front of me. You may glance at her, so long as you do not peer at anything below her neck. If you cannot keep your eyes or hands off of my daughter's body, I will remove them.
Rule Three: I am aware that it is considered fashionable for boys of your age to wear their trousers so loosely that they appear to be falling off their hips. Please don't take this as an insult, but you and all of your friends are complete idiots. Still, I want to be fair and open minded about this issue, so I propose his compromise: You may come to the door with your underwear showing and your pants ten sizes too big, and I will not object. However, in order to ensure that your clothes do not, in fact, come off during the course of your date with my daughter, I will take my electric nail gun and fasten your trousers securely in place to your waist.
Rule Four: I'm sure you've been told that in today's world, sex without utilizing a "barrier method" of some kind can kill you. Let me elaborate, when it comes to sex, I am the barrier, and I will kill you.
Rule Five: It is usually understood that in order for us to get to know each other, we should talk about sports, politics, and other issues of the day. Please do not do this. The only information I require from you is an indication of when you expect to have my daughter safely back at my house, and the only word I need from you on this subject is "early."
Rule Six: I have no doubt you are a popular fellow, with many opportunities to date other girls. This is fine with me as long as it is okay with my daughter. Otherwise, once you have gone out with my little girl, you will continue to date no one but her until she is finished with you. If you make her cry, I will make you cry.
Rule Seven: As you stand in my front hallway, waiting for my daughter to appear, and more than an hour goes by, do not sigh and fidget. If you want to be on time for the movie, you should not be dating. My daughter is putting on her makeup, a process that can take longer than painting the Golden Gate Bridge. Instead of just standing there, why don't you do something useful, like changing the oil in my car?
Rule Eight: The following places are not appropriate for a date with my daughter: Places where there are beds, sofas, or anything softer than a wooden stool. Places where there are no parents, policemen, or nuns within eyesight. Places where there is darkness. Places where there is dancing, holding hands, or happiness. Places where the ambient temperature is warm enough to induce my daughter to wear shorts, tank tops, midriff T-shirts, or anything other than overalls, a sweater, and a goose down parka - zipped up to her throat. Movies with a strong romantic or sexual theme are to be avoided; movies which features chain saws are okay. Hockey games are okay. Old folks homes are better.
Rule Nine: Do not lie to me. On issues relating to my daughter, I am the all-knowing, merciless god of your universe. If I ask you where you are going and with whom, you have one chance to tell me the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I have a shotgun, a shovel, and five acres behind the house. Do not trifle with me.
Rule Ten: Be afraid. Be very afraid. It takes very little for me to mistake the sound of your car in the driveway for a chopper coming in over a rice paddy near Hanoi. When my Agent Orange starts acting up, the voices in my head frequently tell me to clean the guns as I wait for you to bring my daughter home. As soon as you pull into the driveway you should exit your car with both hands in plain sight. Speak the perimeter password, announce in a clear voice that you have brought my daughter home safely and early, then return to your car - there is no need for you to come inside. The camouflaged face at the window is mine.
I'm a girl :-) But I'm going to pass this on to my fiancee. He'll love this hehehe.
LOL!
Not the first time someone thought I was a man... won't be the last time either :D
LOL........
Well...I suppose we can be grateful for that, at least. =]
