I didn't "come out" so to speak until after I was in the Marine Corps. I went into boot camp at 6'6" 180 and came out at 235lb and a changed man. And then after I left training school in the middle of the desert in 29 Palms, I ended up in Okinawa. My roommate there I credit with not only breaking my shell, but stomping it and throwing it away.
We had a sex ed class, it was rather vague though, but no I didn't talk about sex with my mom though. That's just icky. Plus my mom is for the lack of a better word...weird. | It makes me wonder about those girls at the fundamental LDS ranch in Texas. They went through a terrible ordeal. I am glad the authorities took them away. I wonder what they went through was a crash course in sex education. Sad and shocking.
That guy, Warren Jeffs, should never see the sun rise outside of a prison wall for the rest of his life.

Level up: 39%, 118 Points needed | | And fx, what if it were a woman who had mutiple husbands? What would you think of polygamy then? In your other arguments, you define marriage as being between one man and one woman, has that changed? You seem to be suppportive of the practice. I guess you don't consider it to be a religious cult? |

Even if religious cults do practice polygamy, I'm sure there are many men that would just like to have a few hotties at his disposal, and yes, women as well. Why not? If we take "equality" to the ignorant extreme.

Sorry Hot, but I dont feel comfortable talking about my sex life with you folks. But I will say this, if I ever did have pre marital sex, and became pregnat, in no way could I ever consider abortion as a choice, regardless of what obsticals I would have had to over come. Christianity or not. |
