Race mixing is gross and abnormal

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

I guess just cant see myself dating someone where I would have been able to change his diaper at some point in time.

jp, were that really the case, you'd not date anyone, given that the man usually dies prior to the woman, and you'd be changing his depends in his twilight years

what the deuce!

I am amazed that the whole ME/NA forum has not been closed down all you guys seem to do is have major insulting compatitions... moving from one post to the next....

It realy does drag the whole of VJ into the Gutter and makes non member think everyone here like to act like a b!tch....

Not very welcoming I must say....

Unlike you, I have no problems saying something to someones face.

Now you're accusing me of being shy? How sweet!

Not shy but I'm not the one bringing in PM's to this discussion. Pretty childish acutally. Can't handle me on your own so you are trying to get VP to help ya? I guess I can see why your age difference doesn't really matter now!

Is this ok, or just a style of posting?

Your poll was obviously done out of anger because it makes no sense at all. You are asking 2 seperate questions and only giving the option for one answer. Furthermore you are taking the words that led to this poll out of context for your own personal enjoyment and justification.

The poll is supposed to make as much sense as the double standard does between what can be said about age and what can be said about race or religion. So, not, it doesn't make sense. Ignore it if you want. I simply want to know how it makes sense to defend calling some people's relationships offensive because of their ages, but not because of their races or religion.

Why the taboo on some and not others?

For inter-religious marriages, there is plenty of unfavourable comment in scripture (also, a high percentage would agree--without even looking at their scriptures--that it would be a bad idea).

Inter-racial OK so long as not inter-religious (nothing against it in scriptures).

That reminds me of the SNL skit about "oops I crapped my pants".

As I stated in the OTHER thread

racism, Agism, sexism...these are ISMS that show HATRED towards members of that group. You HATE older people, black people, purple people, young people...

Saying it's "gross" to be married to someone half your age isn't an ISM. It's an opinion. There is no HATRED Of either party...

Jeeez

And it was all good when she was doing it to me so I hope she has fun at now too

Ramadan is OVER and the Ramadan Police will not be showing up to point out un-Muslimah-like behavior

Tell me why insulting people in age difference relationships is ok, but insulting those in race difference or religious difference relationships is not ok.

Just to make it clear I never insulted anyone. I said I think they are abnormal and gross. If you have taken that as a personal insult then you must be offended several times everyday.

Clearly not an insult. My bad!

I say these things are no one else's business although opinions descend like flies on sh*t here. I just get frustrated when individuals can't express themselves in a manner that isn't reminiscent of middle school play yards and yahoo chatrooms. I'll choose to do what I choose to do regardless of the poo poo that goes on here.
