. . . and The RestDiscuss just about anything besides Politics and Religion! Discuss sports, pop culture, computers, videogames, welcome new members, wish someone a happy birthday. Or just chit chat!
provocative: purposefully inciting someone toward an elicited behavior
So no, an ankle in and of itself, nor a mini-skirt for that matter
Let's then talk about:
Where: Club dance? Park? Pool?
Where not: Church service, where nobody else is dressed that way
When: Hot out. With significant other, where others are dressed similarly, when you aren't being a distraction
When not: Children's Sunday School class, Bible Study, where nobody else is dressed similarly
Why: Because it is hot outside, because a lot of others are dressed similarly
Why not: Because it is snowing, because nobody is dressed that way, because your dearest best friend's husband is distracted
You left out a few thousand. The Taliban makes it simpler. They just say nothing but the eyes can show or you are dead.
You must have missed Lon's previous post where he said it was 'our' forum [meaning his and other's besides me]. I simply pointed out that I have been posting here much longer.
In other words, he started it!
Again 'our' was <-- in quotes, genius. Just admit you missed that little fact and move along. You don't have to be smart and/or right all the time. You weren't right here, obviously.

I'll admit that I never heard of that word before.

Flirting with people on the board. Guess what, you just joined my block list.
That has got to be the weirdest thing I have seen in ages. I pay Lon a compliment and you impute some subterfuge. Heck I even said I think he is daft and you impute flirting. That has to top the scale for prejudice and preconceived ideas bar none. Oh well. Thank you for blocking me.

May I suggest praying for her?
"If you say the Rosary faithfully until death, I do assure you that, in spite of the gravity of your sins 'you shall receive a never fading crown of glory.' [2] Even if you are on the brink of damnation, even if you have one foot in Hell, even if you have sold your soul to the devil as sorcerers do who practise black magic, and even if you are a heretic as obstinate as a devil, sooner or later you will be converted and will amend your life and save your soul, if----and mark well what I say----if you say the Holy Rosary devoutly every day until death for the purpose of knowing the truth and obtaining contrition and pardon for your sins" (St. Louis Marie de Montfort, Secret of the Rosary, Red Rose).

Social irony.
Eve drooled over the forbidden fruit in the Garden. I wonder if there is some tie to that and this ordeal.
Biblical truth: whatever causes your brother to stumble is not graceful.
*Jesus calls it adultery for a married man's mind to wander*
At the marrying age one looks for a mate. One seeks a suitable person who may be compatible in body mind and spirit.
Once married, loyalty to one's spouse requires keeping the mind focused on what is best for the marriage.

There are two problems with a woman wearing shorts:
1. Shorts tend to be form fitting.
2. They reveal the legs.
To which a woman might think: "But they're comfy, and it's hot out." Be that as it may, if you knew what kind of attention you were getting...
A woman wearing pants has all of the problems with 1, even though not of 2.
And not to mention the shirts/dresses that women wear. Most of the arm is bare. Most of the neck is bare. Often, even more is bare. Part of the back. Below the neck.
I'm sure you get where I'm going with this:
1. Women bare too much of their skin.
2. Even when they don't, their clothing is too form fitting.
Which really makes it difficult for me not to look.
I would say that's your problem, not mine.
My Church is bigger than your church.

Ummmmm, a few of us were looking for mates well before that.
Theocrats are Social Darwinists.
Christianity has nothing applicable, appropriate, or worthwhile to offer the 21st century.
