RomanceRe: Why Do Thin Girls Prefer Fat Men? by allonym: 3:34pm On Nov 29, 2005
ok,

so you are saying that if in the course of posting a reply to this topic, someone said that all fat men are geniuses, my reply must be constrained to only reference fat men and thin women. If I talk about fat men and fat women, or thin men and thin women, then I'm violating the "fat vs thin" ness of this topic?

If so, I apologize for going off topic. So, my proper response to your "thrust" post should be:

allonym:
oh, and in case you were confused, if the man was very very fat, unless the girl or the man or some other person was holding back the person's layers of fat, zero thrust would be developed.
Is that better? Does that fall within the boundaries of "fat vs thin" or am I missing the point of your argument?
RomanceRe: Most Romantic Thing a Nigerian Man Has Ever Done for You? by allonym: 3:26pm On Nov 29, 2005
disney:
Hi ,to my nigerian ladies,what is the most romantic thing that a nigerian guy has ever done for you.............name it all. l know nigerian guys are not romantic but maybe they might be romantic in their own little way.

To me, l felt flattered when l told my man to arrive at the metro station 30 minutes before l get there and infact,he was there an hour before l got there. thats romantic to me . What about u.
If my SO tells me to be somewhere 5 minutes before they arrive and I get there 30 seconds before they do, I can be romantic by saying that I've been waiting an hour?
RomanceRe: My Sister's Boyfriend is Asking Me Out by allonym: 3:24pm On Nov 29, 2005
what are you talking about? there is no evidence here that the guy is trying to sleep with anyone. For all we know, the guy is being sincere. Its people like you who give guys a bad name, when your first instinct is to assume foul play on his part.
RomanceRe: Why Do Thin Girls Prefer Fat Men? by allonym: 3:22pm On Nov 29, 2005
no, i don't see fat vs fat or fat vs thin. So, unless the text is being rendered differently in our browsers, please tell me, what are you talking about?

RomanceRe: Why Do Thin Girls Prefer Fat Men? by allonym: 3:15pm On Nov 29, 2005
you are wrong. . .please, show me where it says fat men vs thin girls. As an engineer, I've been trained to read the english language, perhaps you are not an engineer?
CareerRe: Would You Sleep With Your Boss To Secure Your Job? by allonym: 3:12pm On Nov 29, 2005
funny, a guy would consider sleeping with a female boss for his job or a woman, a male boss. Most people here would not consider sleeping with a boss of the same sex. This shows that the decision to sleep with the boss is more than just job security. It is a decision that is more like - "the boss is someone I want to sleep with, me keeping or securing my job is a side benefit".

[quote author=larger_20 link=topic=2827.msg113990#msg113990 date=1133142473]Fat men have better thrust during sex.that is why.skinny guys only have the d.i.ck[/quote]lies people tell themselves

the amount of "thrust" a person could develop depends not only on the fat/thin ness of the man, but the relative size of the woman. If both are extremely fat, there would be zero thrust.
RomanceRe: [poll] Would You Prefer to Marry a Virgin? by allonym: 1:30am On Nov 29, 2005
yes,

i would compare it to: a person constantly worrying that their way of doing something is infererior to their SO's parent's way, but of course, most people would say that sex is different and cannot understand the comparison.
FamilyRe: Best Way to Punish Kids? by allonym: 11:04pm On Nov 27, 2005
Ok, from the site you provided:

Time outs - not a punishment, useful for calming a child down or when they are misbehaving due to excitement

Hugging - used for very young children incapable of fulling discerning right from wrong to calm them and keep them from misbehaving

Distraction - again, useful when kids are young to redirect their bad behavior to constructive activities

I totally agree with these methods - they are only advocated for use for very young children. . i will not be spanking a two-year old .. . however, one reason they are not to be used with older children is because it is less effective as someone gets smarter and it does not address what is wrong with behavior, just redirects it.

Now, for the rest:

Reason, scolding, praise and rewards, consequences, and modeling. I agree one should use reason, scolding, and praise and rewards. . however, I seriously doubt that if a child continuous to misbehave, they would be affective without some physical punishment.

Modeling - I'm assuming that all of our hypothetical and "real" parents here will be modeling good behavior. For us, this is a given in this discussion.

Consequences - the article gives an example of letting a child get indigestion from overeating candy despite your warning not to do so. This is fine for non-lethal misbehavior. However, playing with matches/fire, beating another child or animal, and lots of other things cannot be resolved by just letting them play out. Letting a child burn a house down while it may be an effective tool to teach the child not to play with matches, it is not something you want to happen. So, you must substitute a beating for a destroyed house.

What I've been saying is that in many cases, non-physical chastisement will work. However, there are plenty of example behavior that many kids go through where that is not enough. At the moment, I have not seen any non-physical (or non mental) punishment which would achieve good results.

BTW, the whipping boy, is an example of a punishment that could fit under consequences - the child sees the consequences of their actions when the other one is whipped. If your child is not a psycopath, it is also a mental punishment as well.
FamilyRe: Best Way to Punish Kids? by allonym: 10:50pm On Nov 27, 2005
I will read the info you provided. But the short list you just gave only works on children who are disposed towards being good.
FamilyRe: Best Way to Punish Kids? by allonym: 10:06pm On Nov 27, 2005
Seun:
If the child thinks you are beating out of love, he'll be ok. But if the child is intelligent enough to realise that you are beating him out of ignorance, then you will have problems.

There are parents who have been able to raise disciplined children without beating. So it is either you learn how to discipline a child non-violently, or you go ahead and beat the child and hope the child sees it as an expression of love.

If you are willing to go thrugh the pain of childbirth and the struggles of childbearing, why is it so hard to learn how to discipline a child nonviolently? If I were president I will force all married couples to go to parenting school to learn it before they are allowed to raise kids.
Your school would be nice, but first, it requires someone to come up with a non-violent method (ie no beatings) that works for the majority of children. There is currently only one such method I can think of, whipping boys (or girls).

In some monarchistic societies, the little prince or princess could not be physically punished. Instead, there was a whipping boy chosen to accept their punishments. Whenever the prince did something wrong, the whipping boy would recieve his lashes publically. Maybe if we had whipping boys or girls, our children could see the impact of their behavior on others without being physically affected.
TV/MoviesRe: Flame of Recca Anime by allonym(op): 9:01pm On Nov 22, 2005
well, its a cool (ninja) like show.

recca is the main character (he's the child of a ninja whose clan was being wiped out. His mom sends him a couple thousand years into the future to save his life). Though she manages to survive the entire time. There is this boy who is trying to gain immortality, and needs recca's power in order to do so. Anyway, recca uses some genjutsu (the hand sign stuff) that they do in naruto. There are many battle scenes but the storyline is pretty linear and i'm pretty sure there are only 26 episodes. Its been almost three years since I watched it (predates naruto) but I think its pretty cool and anyone who likes naruto may possibly like it as well

There is an anime site that you can search for a particular anime and it will gives links to the top 5 (or more) animes people who liked the one you looked up recommend, and from there you can go on and on, though some will tend to loop around on each other. Its pretty cool for finding other animes you may be interested in. I'll look it up and post a link soon.

there is not enough information here to discern the guy's true intentions.
FamilyRe: Best Way to Punish Kids? by allonym: 8:51pm On Nov 22, 2005
i'm with goodguy on this, there must be repercussions for bad actions. Maybe verbal is enough for the everyday, but for something really bad, you gotta step it up.
Christianity EtcRe: To Tithe or Not to Tithe? by allonym: 8:45pm On Nov 22, 2005
there is little truth in your post

I'm not angry about tithe paying - I do it whenever i feel it is necessary. Like I said, some people will have one interpretation, some will have another. If anything, you're proving my post to be correct.

Christianity EtcRe: To Tithe or Not to Tithe? by allonym: 6:34am On Nov 22, 2005
so then, our answer to the topics title is:

To tithe is an individual decision to be made by each christian. Ultimately, what you will do will depend on what you think of when someone says "tithe". One person's tithe could be another person's offering or donation.

I really don't think I can get married to an american, black or white.
You must have a very very good reason for this goodguy. . . i mean, based on your christian background, there must be something interesting here. Did you promise your dying grandmother that you would not marry and american and thus must honor that promise. Please tell me your reason.

she meant, so I'm not the only girl (who would not marry an african american [for whatever reason] ).
