You didn't tag me but I'll answer anyway. As usual, I'll largely agree with @Typo-MAGAshiv. Trust is built over time, and that applies to both men and women (don't ask me how I know).

Like Typo, I gave my wife PoA when I deployed without a second thought. I also spent another year in the middle east as a geographical bachelor without wondering what she was up to. We generally have to badger each other about not spending money on things for ourselves that we can afford rather than spending it on crap we don't need. I put off buying myself an Oculus for a couple of years until she got tired of listening to me pondering it and practically sent me to the store. (I love it, by the way.) I'm constantly telling her to buy stuff for herself when she won't get rid of things that are worn out. A few months ago I had to drag her to the store to buy herself SHOES, for crying out loud, and once we got there I had to insist that she buy the good expensive ones rather than the cheap ones.

But she's not some skank I met in a bar, and she's proved herself over decades. We're religious, though, and not just in the "I identify as an Episcopalian during the Christmas season" or the "I was baptized as an infant at the Church of Our Lady of Perpetual Motion Cathedral" sense: we actually mean it, and the fear of Divine retribution has a sobering effect.

It's too bad that everyone has to be anonymous for our own safety: my wife and I were in the UK recently. Maybe we could have tipped a pint.

As for me, I have to wonder about those numbers. We have the same thing here in the colonies: astronomical percentages of what I call "Alphabet people" (LGBTQIAAQWERTY+++). I remember when they were saying it was 10% based on a bogus study of male prisoners (with no access to women), and legitimate researchers fact-checked them and said it was about 1%. But in some "progressive" departments of American colleges it's close to half.

10%.... those are rookie numbers today. (There used to be a US cable network called "10%" that only carried "gay" programming... like BET for homos.)

I wonder how much is conditioning to actually believe that, and how much of it is people trying to access privileges. Among those people, the guys win big. All you have to do to get a full ride athletic scharship is be better than a bunch of high school girls, but the girls are doomed to disappointment when they discover that their whole belief system is based on the Apex Fallacy. There's no "male privilege" for short, effeminate dudes.

Did I miss something? I've been busy all day and I just signed on to see myself flagged a few times, and when I followed the threads they go back to some girl who was here a month ago that people were responding to today.

@lurkerhasarisen I never saw it but that movie was a huge pop culture sensation for years after it came out. Close really nailed the frizzy haired crazy chick look.

It's a famous movie reference. Michael Douglas played a married guy who had an affair with a crazy chick played by Glenn Close. When he tried to break it off she went crazy and stated stalking him and doing all sorts of weird stuff. At one point she snuck into his house and boiled his kid's pet rabbit on the stove.

Since then the term, "Bunny boiler" has been used for crazy chicks who get too obsessed and do crazy stuff.

I'm relieved that I don't have to potentially deal with the drama and shit that would've come from trying to form a connection with a woman like that. I've also learned a valuable lesson.

Your pet bunny thanks you.

Shouldn't have hit "post" so quickly. It is universally accepted in Christian theology that none of us are perfect, yet salvation is available to all through Christ. That's pretty much the entire point, in fact.

I don't think anyone would disagree that screw-ups can cause temporal consequences that last after repentance and forgiveness. If I commit murder and am sentenced to die, I can repent and be forgiven, but I'm still going to be executed. The thief on the cross was forgiven, after all.

Fair question. My answer is:

I have no idea. We aren't told, which means that it's not important for us to know, so any opinion I could give would be both speculative and irrelevant.

What we do know is that Noah made the cut, and God saved his immediate family, although it's clear that Noah was flawed, too (as we all are), and Ham seems to have been the worst of the lot.
