" Boys vs Girls In Today's Society "

Scarlett from Toronto ON: (203 days 8 hours ago.)

I think both sexes face the same peer pressure issues, girls with "that time of month" to keep up with trends,be nice and have friends,and to be pretty. Boys seem to need to make the whole class laugh,be disgusting in some manner,have a catch phrase,be able to beat other guys up and to be able to make nice come-backs when someone insults them,not to mention the more vulguar the better. I have observed this from my class and have conclueded that BOTH genders have different TYPES of stress/peer pressure,its just one is more obvious than the other.

wow i never realised the pressure guys are under these days. I thought they had it easy, obviously not! they have it just as tough as we do. All though it may not come through to us girls, guys have just as many problems as we do. They can just hide it better. Which proves that in some cases they are the better sex. But it equals out when we have other situations.

Maxine, Some boys, particularly those in urban environments, experience some of the issues described by this boy. However, I have seen cases with my patients where there is alot of dramatizing going on which amounts to excuse-making. Each circumstance is unique. Thanks for generating this discussion! It is important.

Is Living Together Before Marriage A Good Idea?

MAXINE46 from NEW YORK: (276 days 10 hours ago.)
Hi Teresa, I am not the least bit offended. I fully understand your point and, everyone in entitled to one. Your absolutely right about the possibility of living together several times beforehand. But, there are also some people who believe in not living together first so, they go ahead and get married, several times. I know living together before marriage is a sin but, getting married and divorced over and over again isn't a good thing either. There are some people who seem to be incapable of being without a partner. But, what happens when you meet someone that seems to be the one for you and, you marry them without living together first? Then, a couple of days, weeks, months or years later, things don't work out and, they get a divorce. Eventually, you meet someone else and, you get married then, the same thing happens again, and again. Some people get married three, four, five or more times and, they still end up alone. So, I really believe that it's better to live together first and if necessary, leave with your dignity rather than having multiple divorces under your belt.

Hi Maxine, I struggled with whether or not to make a comment. I don't want to sound preachy or harsh, but your last statement is what I can't let go of. I lived with my husband before we got married, and from my experience, we realized after we got married that we wished we hadn't. We robbed ourselves of the gift and previleges that go along with married. Though we are Christians now, we learned that living together was not the best thing to do before marriage while we didn't really care what God thought. Anyway, In God's eyes living together is a sin. And no matter what people might think, it doesn't change God's position on this issue. Why is it a sin? Because God said that everytime you have sexual relations with a person, you literally give them a piece of your soul. WOW! that's hugh, the more people we are "with" the less of a whole person we become. It makes sense, by the time we marry, how much of us is really left? Secondly, God hates the pain that it can cause. Broken hearts, possibly unplanned pregancies, you name it. Besides, there is no perfect prince or princess out there, so we could end up living together several times - 10 - 15 who knows, that is alot of heart break... Anyway, I hope you don't take offense, but I couldn't help but respond. God Bless you
