"A woman's body...will not make you do stupid things."

1. K/R. But "Stupid" is being far too kind. Violent, abusive, immoral are closer to the mark. nt

[whopis01]

29. +1. nt

[randome]

2. Bombard our Muslim neighbors with fliers!

They need to enter the 21st century in regards to how they treat women.
[hr][font color="blue"][center]I'm always right. When I'm wrong I admit it.
So then I'm right about being wrong.[/center][/font][hr]

6. They can share with their Christian neighbors...

...and any other believers, agnostics and atheist.

[seabeyond]

7. nerds, athletes, frat boys... republicans and democrats. lol. you are right on. nt

[riqster]

8. Moslems? Yeah, right. Lots of America has this problem.

[randome]

19. I meant 'neighbors' as in countries. Wasn't very clear, was I?

Sometimes it builds a bigger cage around the one you’re already in.[/center][/font][hr]

3. choose, not chose n/t

[riqster]

10. Yep, good message, imperfect grammar.

The message is the important bit.

[calimary]

14. Unless it was meant to be in the past tense, perhaps?

It's possible to see the logic behind both options.

[jtuck004]

21. Because it is usually used an an excuse, after, thus the past tense. n/t

[Lex]

23. Not necessarily. 'Chose' works too. nt

[LanternWaste]

28. Either is grammatically correct given the ambiguity of past tense versus passive present tense

Either is grammatically correct given the ambiguity of past tense versus passive present tense.

Cool thing to focus on though...

[whopis01]

30. No, chose is correct.

It may appear to be crossing tenses at first glance, but it actually is not.

The phrase "If you do stupid things" is clearly in the present tense. The phrase "it is because you chose to do stupid things" is clearly in the past tense.

However, the verbs are not referring to the same action. The two phrases are describing a cause and effect situation. The cause must happen prior to the effect.

The present situation ("you do stupid things&quot has been caused by a past decision ("you chose&quot .

4. That didn't work out for Motley Crue

[Half-Century Man]

24. As a long time motorcycle rider, I cannot help but marvel at

The sheer volume of the hair spray need to keep poofy bouffant hairdos like those from air braiding into what would look like rabid chinchillas attacking the backs of their heads.

Throwing your knife into a table top is a questionable method of intimidation, but an excellent way to disarm yourself and make an enemy at the same time.

5. This needs to be stapled to the foreheads of those idiots on that El Al flight the other day

17. Women can clear the aisles of those jerks very easily.

Simply walk down the aisle waving a tampon like a baton, and watch them scatter. They won't ask for so much as a glass of water, either!

I have a friend who is a flight attendant who used that trick all the time when she was working the Tel Aviv flight.

If these nitwits can't book their flights in a bloc of seats to avoid those "terrible" women, then tough shit. The airlines should tell them if they don't take their seats they'll be removed and their luggage taken off as well, and they won't get a refund.

Enough, already.

[A HERETIC I AM]

22. Impossible for me to agree more.

I'll repeat what I said on a FB post about the incident I linked above;

Acting stupidly over made up rules. Never join a religion that requires dopey haircuts, clothing or headgear or forces you to be a pain in the ass

[derby378]

9. Could someone translate this into Arabic and Farsi? (n/t)

[riqster]

11. Probably, but lots of English-speakers need it too.

[LibDemAlways]

18. Fundies like the Duggars are so convinced

that men can't help themselves around women, they won't allow "courting" couples to be alone together ever. Also the reason for the "modest" clothing - scared to death of "defrauding" some poor guy who might get a hard on at the sight of female knees. Seriously fucked up view of the world.

[Gothmog]

12. This is great

[calimary]

13. AMEN! To THIS, here, too!

[ismnotwasm]

15. Exactly.

And jumping on the Islamic world to ignore the problems in ours isn't being part of the solution

[seabeyond]

16. no. but the couple that are jumping on islamic world are all about agenda. so pretty clear. nt

[ismnotwasm]

25. Yup.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

20. I had a frantic knock at the door once by a naked rape victim who had crawled out a window....

My first reaction was a blanket to cover her and a 911 call.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

26. And yet they never say men need to cover themselves to not tempt women.

Because women are supposed to be virtuous and not lustful and powerless.

Like people who say women never beat up men.

[One_Life_To_Give]

27. You, havn't met my wife!

The stuff that woman makes me do can fill Lists I tell you!

[jimlup]

31. As a father of a son

This is exactly what I want him, as a man, to understand.
