I have a theory why...

[tarni]

I can only speak for myself: I feel young, I giggle, I skip, I am full of energy, I bubble over with it some days and that is why young men appeal to me. But I want a man in my life who is serious about life and love and God. I want a man in my life who understands compassion, caring and gentleness. A man who accepts me for who I am and not for the packaging or who can also be there when I am not as perky.

Frisky is a whole nuther thing entirely.

Tarni,
What are you...a therapist? This place is not a psych facility and we are Not in group therapy. So, cut out the preaching and teaching. Do not judge others here.

But this is her thread and this is what she has chosen to discuss in her thread, you could create your own thread in which to discuss the best lighting conditions and camera angles to take cleavage shots/whatever.

I apoligize if I offended you. However, when I speak of the Law of Attraction, I was not speaking of "physical attraction." I was speaking of the metaphysical theory of one attracting what they desire. In which the desire does indeed come from within. In regards to the gift of the interior, I agree. When someone is attracted to that other person on the level you are speaking of, that attraction as well as the relationship that becomes of that attraction is what I would consider an ultimate gift.

I completely agree.

How funny it is that we are actually on the same page.

I definitely have to agree. On all of the dating sites or MySpace where women want respect, but then have lots of half nude photos. Personally it ruins the mystery if you pose nude or half naked like what's seen in a lot of those magazines. A woman wearing a classier outfit like a business suit is so much sexier.

PP - I must have missed your last comment above. Isn't amazing we live in the United States where we are not jailed or otherwise punished for saying what we want to say? I think so! Even if this wasn't a thread I started and happen to comment on others what I think - I can do it and so can you. We all have the option of NOT participating or you can write your own opinion.

The thing that gets out of hand is when you start name calling or being otherwise abusive - no matter what setting you are in, that is wrong. Because I am personally confident in my words, I do not need to be abusive or try to censor someone because I don't believe what they say.

This is quite an introduction to the community here. So many viewpoints is refreshing. I am a bit confused however as to what photos people choose. I imagine the ladies are attempting to stand out, be noticed. But I have only been on the site about an hour but I haven't come across any offensive pictures. I have seen much worse "attempts to be noticed" amongst the patrons of the local grocery store this summer. As if not thought was given to being out in public. Is it a sign of the changing times? Are we conditioned and overstimulated by poplular culture? Has identity and integrity blurred for the average person they no longer reflect themselves? Has styleish become synonymous with scandalous attire? Is it I just do not understand the fashion and textile industries?

[tarni]

I think we are desensitized to decency. Look at the covers of the magazines that are in your local grocery, if they can be naked in public then why can't the patrons? Propriety, modesty, decorum, respectibility, good taste and gentility all seem to be words from the past or considered old fashioned. The funny thing is that the culture today tries to get noticed by shock value and they are not realizing that there is little left to shock us with.

There is a guy that walks around town here in ONLY cowboy boots and underwear strumming on his guitar - he is called the Naked Cowboy - and noone (but the midwesterners) gives him a second glance anymore. I dont hear much about The Girls Gone Wild videos anymore, it is because that is nothing new anylonger?

I dont think is has much to do with the fashion and textile industry, they are not the ones leading the charge of scandalous attire, they actually look to the streets for their inspiration then modify it to suit the mainstream public. Why? Because they cant come up with any more original ideas.

I think I am off topic but what the heck.
