Meaning, obviously NOT the same, since one is a felony and the other is just considered creepy these days.

But there are similarities to the argument YOU are making in favor.

Women must own up to their own role in the joint process of their objectification...just like men must own up also, to their role in the objectification process as well...

In other words, she's asking for it...maybe you should own up to it and just post exactly what you mean instead of trying to sugar coat it. You do that with a lot of topics.

Age has nothing to do with it in my case. I've always had that challenge.

If nobody would have responded, I would have popped up in bed at 3am and said out loud, PHYLLIS GEORGE.

My wife would have said, "alright, what were you into on the internet today?"

Maybe you should close this thread like you thought...for some unknown reason, your anger with me still persists...it is like you have some deep down hatred for me...What is it...?

I don't give you a second thought once I exit a thread that you've participated in, so there's no way in hell there could be any deep down ANYTHING when it comes to you.

You give yourself way too much credit.

Probably should move it to the off-topic or close it altogether....

I posted some photo's pre-contest in my Gulfstream Saturday selections thread. I'd link to that except I don't want to highlight my losing day at the windows.

I played SambaCer in the saturday finale in support of her Samba'ering her way to the crown.

Everybody normal is aware that the world is/has changed and we need to be conscious about how we express our natural god-given instincts to be drawn to women physically.


This thread will probably have short life span in the racing forum.

What I appreciate about Acacia Courtney is that she is elegant and graceful.
I see her at Gulfstream frequently and that's what stands out the most to me. She moves and speaks with grace and charm.

She's an ambitious young lady with an eye on big things. She's not long for the world of making selections next to the walking ring at Gulfstream.

Best of luck to her.

So why are you so hostile toward me...? I make 1 neutral simple comment in off topic in a long while and you react by demeaning me...by saying “I sugar-coat a lot” ...what I really mean, as if I I really want to say something demeaning...? I don’t get it...

Think about how hostile this board is on topics not related to horse racing. Just think about that for a few seconds. Its pretty f'n hostile.

Knowing that, when you start a post with "Women have to own up"...


Are you naive to the point where you believe that what your about to type will be received with neutrality?

Find your Diplomatic self.

Everyone has a right to be proud of their appearance without being subjected to unwanted attention. Just as anyone has the right to ask a person out once, they don't have a right to continue to do so when rejected. It is up to all of us to respect people around us.

None of us are perfect, and we can all ( myself included ) improve how we treat others.

It was her choice to be in a beauty pageant. I thought people who think like you were big on CHOICE. Maybe not if you don't agree

Thanks. I took 1:9 that you supported Roy Moore based on this post.

Ka-ching!

Having worked as nurse and spending a good part of my life in the gym as well, I can assure you women are do the same. Yep, been groped more than once on the job. To say I didn't enjoy the attention would be a lie.

Getting groped in your 60s isn't a small accomplishment.
