You present the opposite sex with no other choice whatsoever, and many of them WILL convince themselves it was THEIR choice!

Women's forced marriages still go on all over the world (and what is rape BUT that?) and many (often most, out of fear) will say that it is the 'natural' way of things...

But we know better, don't we, eh, Ian?! wink

Absolutely horrible, Diki...of course, I'm sure forced marriages happen to men as well...

Are you concerned about getting married again?

Most of the societies that still condone arranged marriages look the other way while the man has dalliances outside of the marriage. But stone the women to death when THEY do it...

It's a man's man's man's man's world....

Hell, the US can't even ratify the ERA in the 21st century. Colored slaves might be out, but women as slaves...? Hmmmmmm....

You've come a LONG way, baby! Now fetch me my beer wink

Don't get me wrong, Diki. I'm not offended by the phrase "Colored", but to be honest, I don't think I've heard it used in at least 30 or 40 years. I know where your head is so I absolutely know it wasn't meant in any kind or negative or disrespectful way, but if it's in common local usage down there in the panhandle, you have to wonder what century they're operating in smile smile.
