So you are equating sexual touching without consent to looking at someone... lol.
I’m already over it. Only joined this discussion as I thought it was on the main nrl site in relation to Brown. I’ll discreetly withdraw. Good luck to the Eels for the rest of the year. One of the sides I really enjoy watching .
Shitting on everyone’s opinion, and never being wrong is what Pou is about!!!
There's a difference between swinging and ethical non-monogamy, but yes they both involve mutual consent.
In your opinion. And depends on a mutually shared definition of "belonging", without power imbalances at play.
That "setting boundaries" and "able to tell you" very different from needing to give a spouse permission for what they want to wear... which is from where this discussion sprouted.
It's the Parra forum - and certain individuals here have a track record of taking things into weird (contrary) spaces at the slightest opportunity.
lol, that's one way to describe what you do...
"Allowing" such behaviour from a spouse reeks of permission, rather than simply letting someone know their feelings about something.
Is that where it started? Not sure about that.
Looking at them without their consent, yes. Isn't the issue here about consent? If they consent then sexual touching isn't the problem ffs
Looking at someone without their consent isn't even a crime, ffs.
Well why should anyone else's opinion matter in my marriage? It's between me and my wife. Not really @Pneuma's place to decide what is and isn't acceptable in another person's marriage.
Power imbalances are part of any relationship. If you don't like it you're free to end the relationship.
There is no difference. My employer can't actually stop me from taking the day off if I feel like it, but they can sack me, so I ask permission.
It's no different to any relationship. If your friends behave in ways you won't tolerate then they aren't really your friends. I suppose the difference is you can shitcan your friends without them knowing. Your spouse is probably entitled to a warning.
Well this is that warning I was talking about, but really, it is not functionally different to giving them permission. Even the state generally can't stop you committing crimes. They can just punish you afterwards.
I'm not being contrary mate, I just disagree with you. Good luck with your progressive ideas on marriage, but for me I'd rather not be married to someone who violates my entirely arbitrary boundaries. And if she found those boundaries unreasonable I'm sure she wouldn't want to be married to me either. Where we are unsure where those boundaries are (in my marriage it's either about financial decisions or choices around the kids) we ask permission. It's human decency ffs. But if she assumed I was cool with something when I wasn't I'd tell her. Then it would be up to her whether she went ahead with it. If it makes you uncomfortable I suggest you stop worrying about other people's marriages.
A missionary, in Africa, was out taking a walk in the jungle. Suddenly, he heard a noise from the brush in front of him. It was a lion. He started to back up and heard a noise from behind. Sure enough, it was another lion. He looked to his left and then to his right. You guessed it, lions were on both sides. It looked grim, so the missionary sat down where he was and started to read his Bible. Shortly after he started reading, the lions jumped the missionary and ate him.lol, that's one way to describe what you do...
