WHY ISN'T THIS GENERATION GETTING MARRIED?
- Thread starter GodsGrace
- Start date
How could you be on a dating site?
You delete all your posts!
You'll NEVER get a date!
Whoa!
That was a good lesson.
But it got confusing.
I like this:
MALE
FEMALE
Anything else is personal and I don't want to know about it.
Unless necessary.
Which I doubt.

You've probably known that I'm vehemently against false dichotomy and black-and-white mentality, whenever I spot it I expose it, but here's the tricky thing, that in some rare cases the dichotomy is true, the distinction of male and female is one of them. God created male and female in his image, regardless of hormone levels and physical appearance. Then they'll use some rare cases of genetic anomoly such as Klinefelter Syndrome (male with an extra X chromosome) or AIS (androgen insensitivity symdrome). People with such genetic anomolies may appear to be womanish with female features, some with AIS are as pretty as victoria's secret model with less body hair and taller figure because their bodies don't respond to androgens that result in male features such as body hair, but technically, these are still male since they have a Y chromosome, they are not a third gender, and unfortunately, these people are infertile.

Its always been male and female. i mean LGBT understand that, but then there movement got hijacked by the ridiculous.
Gays and Lesbians believe in 2 sexs. Its a man or woman who are attracted to the same sex. They still identify as a man or woman. Gay is not another gender just someone attracted to there own.
Bisexual. Bi means 2, so Bisexual is someone attracted to both man and woman instead of just there own like gays. They still identify as a man or woman. Bisexual is not another gender.
Transexual. Means sex transition from man to woman or woman to man (as they believe). So transexuals still identify as ether a male or female just not biologocally. Transexual is not another gender. A biological man who believes they are a woman want to be called a woman or the other way.
So LGBT believe in 2 sex and 2 genders as the same thing. Not sure whats going on with all the milion diiferent genders and pronouns thing. Im not sure what a they them is.
Just my opinion.

That's the devil's propaganda to make you confused. The "they/them" is a reference of Mk. 5:9 - "My name is Legion; for we are many." Jesus was doing exorcism there, he wasn't facing one evil spirit, but a legion of evil spirits, these evil spirits are the they/them.
My young son was filling out a form and he came to me a little confused.
He asked what was meant.
The form said:
SEX:________
He thought they were being very intrusive, looking for a yes or no reply!
Ah.
Those were the good old days.
Interesting take.
It's the transgender that REALLY bothers me.
On children!!
The horror stories.
These are parents??

The thread pretty much reads like older folks ranting about "them dang kids today", doesn't it?
Read it from the beginning J.The thread pretty much reads like older folks ranting about "them dang kids today", doesn't it?
It's not that at all.
100 years from now, many will still remember THEIR past and notice all the differences.
Mine was a serious question.
Them dang kids today are afraid to get married.
Why?
Feminism, the decline of organized religion, and economic considerations like the cost of starter homes relative to previous generations.

It costs like $25 to get hitched at the court house.
Thanks for the article J.
This point has been brought up in this thread.
I tend to agree more with JT4444 and some points Riven has made previously.
I'd say that it's more due to socielogical changes and religious changes.
Yes, feminism being one of them.
As Riven has stated, it could cost as little as $25. to get married in a courthouse.
So there must be other reasons.
Also, it seems to be the same here in Europe -- it's not limited to the US.

Meh....I tend to believe the people who are actually in the situation and were asked about it, rather than the speculations of people on the internet.
LOL
You don't think some persons in that situation are on this forum?
Are we just people on the internet to you?
You're not Christian J, so you don't understand that we're a community here.
Some that are not christian do understand this anyway,,,but apparently you don't.
It's OK. It's understood.

Why? They're clearly idiots if they think it costs 30k to get married.

But the question is generic (referring to "this generation"), not specific to a person. Thus, the answer should be in the same context.
Pretty much.
I've just seen far too many cases of trolls, imposters, and bots in message boards to take much of any of it very seriously. And as message boards and forums go the way of the dodo, it's only worsened.
Now, if some of you have grown to know, like, and become good friends with each other, that's wonderful! I just don't have any interest in that sort of thing. It has nothing to do with anything specific to this site, it's just a general approach I take to most things online.

The original question ("why aren't younger generations getting married") has generally been answered and I believe them when they answer.
Whether their answer(s) is/are rational is a separate issue.
