COuld you pleae back up the idea that I have not read thru the thread? You cannot becasue you do not know. IMO you have not back up your personal views you have not once supported your claims. NOT ONCE!
Maybe she meant "heresy" rather than "hearsay..." which should maybe be in that divine calling thread?

You can hate me, but do it because you know me, not because I’m a member of a group. Anyways, people aren’t grapes --- you can’t weigh them in a bunch, but I guess it’s easier than dealing with people as individuals. There, I’ve solved the riddle of prejudice: it saves time.
My ten year old is very mature but not mature enough to be left alone. A risk I would not take.
Most ten year olds are not mature enough to be left alone so I would not take the risk of leaving them alone.
What point does that prove...It still is strickly my opinion, no where does it claim IAM RIGHT or that my views are written in stone, it is simply my views on the matter.

Why assume I wont answer them? These answers does not prove a point or support your claims that I think my personal opinions are *right* for every child or family or that I have contradicted myself. How does it prove it is not strickly my opinion and how I view the issues.
Excuse me, but what's wrong with chess and band? My dd is drum major of her HS marching band, is first chair flute, has won so many honors and awards for music I can't even count them.
Not true. My dd is a gymnast and is in the band. MOst of the kids in band do sports also. As a matter of fact, the scholl lets the kids letter in band, because of teh enormous physical strain marching puts on them. My dd nornally loses at least 10 pounds during marching season and she only weighs 100 pounds.
I think you are are implying thatkids in the band and kids who play chess are geeks. Why don't you just admit it?
IMO female objectification is a very complex issue. A lot of things that seem neutral enough to some seems indicative of objectification to others. By now, male objectification has also become an issue.
I don't know about "only seeing the outside". If you treat yourself like an object, then that's how others will perceive you, even if there's more to you than that. If as a female you're all about being "hot", whatever else you do, then that's how you'll be pereived. And "being hot" is what a surprising number of kids and teens are into now.

Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song,
I never said you said it i asked how it does not relate since you told me that nothing i have said relates to what you have said.
I never said you said anything about adding a collar to a shirt I gave you examples of what I deem appropriate, in certain situations.
So your saying modesty has nothing to do with appropriate attire for cheerleading? huh?
you post makes no sense.
It seems like you argue just to argue.
