Huh, I never noticed that before.

Really the only good that has come from it is that there are no such thing as "pre-existing conditions." These were common reasons that were used not to pay for legitimate procedures. I remember my brother having to pay out of pocket when his wife's gall bladder exploded. Since it ruptured before she went to the hospital, it was considered "pre-existing" and therefor wasn't covered.

As far as it being a tax for entitlements, your right. Most of what our govt. pays for are entitlements - Boeing, Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics are prime examples of this.

Telling me later isn't an interest, though from your photos I would say that fitness is.

Just saying "hi" in the body of your profile makes you look fake. I take one look at your profile, and my first thought is "oh, she's not real."

Fill the thing out, let the men on here know what type of person you want to meet. You also might want to say a few things about what kind of things you enjoy (interests), as it lets people know if you have some things in common.

I'm sure the pictures you posted will attract attention, you're a beautiful young lady, but is it going to attract the type of attention you want?

You can't take away a person's right to be an a-hole.

To do so would be the same as placing society on a 40% grade made of ice (a very slippery slope). The language police already has started doing this, and slowly but surely they are chipping away at free speech.

True freedom of speech means that one is allowed to say things that others don't find agreeable, and sometimes it is a good thing. For example, in the 1800's people thought that women were crazy when the started to say they should have the right to vote. I'm sure there were a group of men out there that thought Susan B. Anthony was a full on (insert expletive here).

The only true enemy of "hate speech" is education. The enlightened mind can see through a veil of hatred, and look past prejudice. Eventually the voice of reason becomes louder than the voice of bigotry and drowns it out with rational conversation, but it takes time and a lot of it.

Don't have a clue what your talking about, but I don't like either of them.

Didn't he build that for a woman who ended up marrying someone else?

Yeah, if you don't shed a tear when he is reunited with his family, you just don't have a heart.

I don't know a thing about 50 shades, but from the commercials it looks like a guy hooking up with his secretary type movie. So, no not really interested in seeing it.

I honestly don't remember, as I haven't kissed anyone since 1996(well, except my grandmother and I don't think that counts).

Know what you mean Eric!

I'm self-employed, and while I have a web cam, I have no idea how to use it.

Your profile isn't a novella like mine, it took no time to read. So, I've got no answer for you on this one.

I'm not certain why you'd want a serious woman. I'd rather have one with a sense of humor!

The truth is, everything men do is just to impress women. Ergo, if you ladies would just make it a little easier on us men none of this would be necessary. Or said another way: I know I'm responsible, but it's not my fault - your to blame.

I've come to find that the easiest way to ensure that someone never speaks to me again is to say:

Hey, would you like to go out sometime?

I agree your profile is straight-forward and sincere. I think you did well.

If your interested, I know someone from your hometown that isn't married.

What I'm saying is that your connection of these items is spurious at best. Most men don't rule a nation or have an army at their disposal, so operating "with balls" would mean having to do so in circumstances that are within their reach - as in the examples I gave.

If you are dealing with topics of ISIS and war, then how can you say that we are discussing "dating and relationships." And my neighbors aren't that cool, their dog digs in my yard and I'm constantly pick up their trash out of the same. Should I retaliate in kind? Dump a pile of beer cans on their lawn? Would you consider that acting "manly?" I think not, it is paramount to acting like a child, and maybe what you're really looking for is someone suffering from a "Peter Pan Complex."

A real man knows that in all situations violence should be the last resort. A real man knows that all nations are entitled to conduct their own civil uprising - whether we agree with their culture or not, precisely because it isn't our culture and we really have no say.

Personally I feel it's high time that the people in the region stand up and take care of their own problems, especially since we created it by trying to force Americanism down their throats at the point of a sword. Because every real man should also know when to walk away.

My Uncle got audited and he's a Democrat.

So really this topic should have been posted in "politics" and not "dating and relationships." You don't endorse revenge motives to be used domestically for lesser circumstances, such as my neighbor didn't return my hedge clippers or the lady at the grocery store snagged the parking spot for which I was waiting?

So, am I to understand the OP correctly in that men can be "better people" by participating in wholesale revenge killing?

Don't get me wrong, I might be up for that if anyone ever did anything terrible to me, but I think it would make our police departments some very busy people.

When I was in my twenties, I might of had fantasies along those lines, but as I aged, I stopped adding the family, then the woman no longer had to be sexy, later marriage no longer fell into the category.

Now, well just having a cup of coffee and some dinner with a nice woman is about as far as a fantasy might make it. The truly sad thing is, it falls under the realm of fantasy.
