The guy who is accused, Blackmore, is likely the uncle of a guy I went to school with in Lethbridge, originally from Winfield, Alberta. They are Mormon. Small world.

Pocky - HAI! The problem with the Bountiful group is that they have been known to traffic in women and girls from other compounds in the States.....our immigration authorities have done little to stop this.....it is heinous.

I think the cons of having multiple wives outweigh the pros; much more PMS, much more nagging and too many chick flicks!

Men and women are simply wired differently. We have different triggers. Women like movies with an emotional story. Men like movies with blood, explosions and boobies.

I think you need to relax Miz P. It was a joke, as you are clearly able to see with the

I loathe chick flicks....those sorts of generalizations do not apply to me nor to most of my homegrrls. So old-fashioned and sexist to say crap like that....this is why these polygamist pedophiles get away with their crap because our authority figures are still in the dark ages when it comes to women.grumpy old man wrote:Men and women are simply wired differently.

It seems you are very sensitive to jokes about women. It was not intended to offend anyone. I've heard and read tons of jokes against men made by women, but don't get all uptight because I know it's a joke. You might need to lighten up a bit, eh?

Please do not tell me what to do....I do not take statements like that as jokes. Women are held back in the world because one man's joke is another man's weapon....especially PMS remarks. That tripe always gets trotted out when a woman is seeking public office. Do you not remember Pallister's remarks about women being "fickle"? That made national headlines sir.

Wow.
You need to learn how to pick your battles Miz P., and you really do need to lighten up, as this is a pointless argument for both of us. If you want to get all upset over this, go for it. I'm not going to waste any more of my time arguing over something as ridiculous as this with you.
Continue your rant if you must.

Not ranting dude. Not battling either. You perceive what I have said as such - that is the shame. I am just trying to point out a fact of life for many women - we get tired of certain kinds of remarks. Have a nice day.

"Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms- religion thought, belief opinion and expression"
In B.C. there has been at least 2 opinions given to the Crown, that having multiple wives/husbands, men/men, women/women, marriages is not somehing that can be fought in court.
This crown prosecutor, was a former judge, is chasing fame and fortune, in my humble opinion!
The government has no business in consenting adults bedrooms!
Pierre Elliot Trudeau said that a few months ago, and his advise was always pretty good!

A few months ago, down in Texas, the law picked up 400 or so children from some commune, and ended up returning all of the children, because the law is pretty clear- you cannot pick up childrem and remove them rom their parents, unless the children are at risk!
So we had front page news and now a $400,000,000 lawsuit gainst the Texans!

Any idea how stereotypes come about? Is there some basis of fact behind them?
Is it also true that not all people match their stereotypes all the time? This would be one very boring world were it true that all women were the same and all men were the same?
If someone were to label me whatever a stereotypical man was I guess my response would be meh. Whatever. Much more important things to get all indignant over.
