    There just seems to be a double standard as to society accepting one over the other.

    Even here on the sex boards, many of our own experts talk acceptance of threesomes if all the parties are OK with it.

    So if they do not wish to commit to a long term relationship, it is OK, but it is not if they do

    [QUOTE=Wondergirl;2838755]And what's your definition of "accoutrements"?

    I didn't say that. I said, in answer to your comment that the younger women would go for the younger men that maybe they would not, depending on how the older men were 'equipped'. Am I making myself clear ? I can't say what I really mean on this board. It would not be acceptable. So you will have to read between the lines.

    Now you are. When you said "better accutrements," my first thought was money and possessions, stability. The young males probably have the better biological and more desirable accutrements.

    You see tickle this is how misinformation gets around. At one time mormons did practice polygamy but that was discontinued, Joseph Smith founded the church and it was because of polygamy and for other reasons they had violent clashes with other citizens. This resulted in their expulsion more than once and migration to Utah, at that time not part of the US. The mormons favour their own Scriptures called the Book of Mormon over the Bible. They should not be regarded as protestant as they are their own religion. Here is a general discussion

    We could debate this probably but without good examples; I am thinking along the lines W, by accoutrements I meant what they are endowed with. Some older men may be better endowed then the younger ones.

    That's what I meant by "biological." I still think the young women would prefer the hot-blooded young males. At least, it's that fear that causes the older males to drive out from the settlement the younger ones.

    We basically agree, tick.

    Just to jump in here. I have had missionaries visit me. I am open to talking with them, and even open reading the book of mormon that I have done on my own in the past. I will say that so far there are so many similarities between The book of Mormon and the Bible, you would swear that lots of the messages, quotes and information from the kings James bible landed right in the book of mormon. There is not much contradiction at all really. Now the Church itself and their intrepretations of the bible may differ. I am not defending them but the best way to learn about their church and faith is to talk with them. Does not mean you have to join the church although they defiantly like to put the pressure on you to join and get baptised in their church but it all comes down to choice. It all comes down to learning and growing. Not through information from the internet but actually talking with a Mormon brother or sister yourself.

    Oh I have. I was a Big Brother (Big Brothers/Bid Sisters organization) and my little was the son one a single mom who was an LDS. I saw him every weekend almost and we also participated in their church (hall?) activities. The one thing I noticed is that it felt a little cultish, especially to the point of excluding family members that weren't part of the church. Having your religious text line up with the bible is one thing, how the congregation/church expects you to live your live is another.

    Well I told the visitors that my wife has different beliefs and wants to stay within her own church she was brought up with along with my son. Did not seemed to phase them, because they are trying to work on me. I was told they will work on me, try to get me converted and they try to work on my family.

    Did you use the name Jesus that usually gets them on their way. I like to tell them Joseph Smith was a false prophet and none of his prophecies were ever fulfilled.
