Pale Rider said:- Better teeth: Seminal plasma contains zinc, calcium and other minerals shown to retard tooth decay. Since this is a family Web site, we will omit discussion of the mineral delivery system. Suffice it to say that it could be a far richer, more complex and more satisfying experience than squeezing a tube of Crest--even Tartar Control Crest. Researchers have noted, parenthetically, that sexual etiquette usually demands the brushing of one's teeth before and/or after intimacy, which, by itself, would help promote better oral hygiene.

KarlMarx said:Well ... I have you beat by a country mile.... I don't even want to say how long I've been celibate. I don't intend to sound like I'm trying to "one up" you, or I'm trying to brag. But, being a single dad, I didn't want to set a poor example for my kids. So they learn by example. Sure... I feel like I'm not even part of the human race sometimes, but what is the alternative? Give up my principals? Sell out? My kids' mother did that, thank you. They don't need more of it. So when I tell my kids, "wait until you're married", they can't say "easy for you to say", they know I am waiting too... so they can't argue with me. I guess my situation gives me a unique opportunity to be an example for my kids that way.
KarlMarx said:Once a female work associate said to me, "men will do anything for sex"... I told her, no that's not true, not all of us are like that. I didn't tell her why she was wrong, but I think that she was hanging out with the wrong guys.
KarlMarx said:I think that the argument against abstinence education has just been disproved here on this thread. Those that say "well, kids are going to have sex anyway" are so foolish. To that I answer ... "not if the parents are doing their jobs".
No one has ever gone mad, died, gotten pregnant, contracted a disease from abstaining from sex. And we're living proof.
pretender said:Pale Rider, those women you are talking about that let men use them obviously have low self esteem. I guess they feel a bad man is better than no man, personally I totally disagree. Boggles the mind doesn't it?
You reckon men AND women will ever figure out that we are all ultimately responsible to take care of ourselves and that relationships are not some sort of contract that makes the OTHER person responsible to take care of you?Pale Rider said:Well it can't be "a bad man is better than no man", because they could do better if they wanted with EASE. See a "good man" isn't as exciting as a "bad boy". Stability is boring. Bringing home a decent, constant pay check isn't a challenge. If you're not a job hopper with a bench warrant out for your arrest, you're just not much of a thrill. Who wants a "nice guy", with a good steady job, good morals and would treat you right? Heck, we're boring.

Shattered said:A friend of mine was always told his standards were too high.. I always told him to hold out for those standards. He did. He's finally getting married...for the first time. He's going to be 37 in March. I'm betting he'll stay married.
good advice---those decisions made from below the waist can sure make everything above the waist go CRAZY !!Shattered said:I'd tell you the same thing.. Hold out for those standards.. Otherwise you run the risk of ultimate unhappiness. Granted, nobody is "perfect", but you know well enough by now what's really important to you, and what can be overlooked...
