Thanks for reminding me about the high heels, Hamlet. How dumb are they!

But I suspect you are simply parrotting the male view. I'd much prefer to hear a female perspective.

Soldiers on leave still look for female company, and while back in barracks they no doubt still talk about all sorts of gals.

So in wartime probably the most popular females are those with the customised ready smile and not looking for a future husband but there to enjoy herself as well as her partners.

While it does become the chance to pick up a sheila good lookin' but just a bit nervous and shy, though still willing to converse, it was said that that's the one worth trying for, the one a soldier might finish up writing letters to, and even finish up marrying.

The girls or woman that do get talked about, however, are what both males and females talk about are the professional teasers, in the old days called by mothers - bold lumps - who get more out of getting men worked up and then deliberately going cold, than a final thrill.

Unfortunately, we still come across these types even in aged clubs, wondering whether it is these teaser-types which has induced Islamic mullahs to preach so much the covering of the feminine flesh

Late in the discussion I know, but a brief comment on the article:

I agree with this bit of Father Dave’s sermon:

“…the media beat-up over his comments has more to do with an anti-Muslim political agenda than it does with anything he was actually responsible for.”

On the other hand, just about everything up to that point was just a bit… creepy and boofheaded.

In fact, I think that’s about the most stupid article I’ve read on OLO – and that’s saying something.

Enough said about this excuse for an article. This topic is being intelligently discussed in other parts of this forum. Why bother dignifying Father Dave’s tripe with serious consideration?

I agree that females should be taught to put more thought and consideration into what they wear and to dress more conservative and appropriately.

Beauty comes from within, there is no need for our girls to flash their body in the manner that they are doing today.

Walking around half naked makes females look like easy and cheap targets to those who have no respect or control.

We should encourage our females to protect themselves by being sensible about what they wear and consider where they are going, what time they are going and who they are going to be with.

Here we have other religions trying to ride on the shirt tails of Muslim facism because the traditional religions have lost their power.I can still remember the nuns telling eight year olds not to have impure thoughts in the early sixities.It was the devils work,blah ,blah blah.We didn't even know what sexual feelings were,let alone know that our sexuality was all the fault of the devil.

Does that ring a few bells as regards Hilali's reportoire of oppression through guilt, that religions have used so effectively in the past to control people?Why does the Catholic Church sporn so many paedophiles?Could it be sexual repression caused by control freaks?Tell you what,some of the nuns of that era were cruel and nasty.They were a product of this totalitarism that the Muslims offer us.

To me, the issue is pretty simple: There are consequences to actions. The guys committed RAPE and they are given the penalty in accordance with the law. End Of Story.

And examples of dancers and top-less woman in Father Dave's article are cases of different nature. These things are not part of day-to-day life.
To compare an ordinary woman with those examples is totally preposterous.

Skinny bikinies and revealing dress is an acceptable dress-code in Western Cultures and when we have roughly about 70% (not sure) westerners, they are going to be abundunt in public.

I'd conclude by quoting "When you are in ROME, act like a ROMAN"
