Property. The spoils of war to be claimed by the victor. <br /><br />I found that once I started looking at both radical Islam and Christian Patriarchy from that point of view, many things make sense. Try it with your favorite doctrine...<br /><br />Women must always be under the control of, authority of, accompanied by a man. (No stray dogs, now!)<br /><br />Women exist to be "helpmeets," that is, to accomplish the man's vision. Kind of like a tool. <br /><br />And of course, the "modesty" ideal. Women are treasures to be possessed by the men. "You don't count your money while you're sitting at the table..." The beauty of your possession isn't to be seen by anyone but its owner.Diary of an Autodidacthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11849157548643091986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3113535730415912557.post-48171744823722319932013-01-03T17:08:53.967-08:002013-01-03T17:08:53.967-08:00Short,to the pointand well-said!

Too many people get caught up in all of the ways a woman can supposedly "defraud" a man - completely forgetting that each person is responsible for their own thoughts and behavior.

He says it's "ripping someone off by raising expectations but not delivering on the product." Apparently I can rip off a dude by kissing him but not having sex, or by having sex and then not getting married, or, like you said, by the way I wear. As if my body is part of some weird marketplace of sexual acts. I had the same response as you. My body is MINE and I don't owe anyone anything at all.
