Mine was nice... the only thing that disturbed me was the teens dressed like Hooters girls, one carrying her baby. I am feeling terrible this morning because I know my eyebrows accidentally went up when I opened the door. Now I want to find her and give her a hug.

 

[MC]

what's wrong with teen dreesed up like hooters girl?

 

[Isla]

You've never been an exploited teenage girl, so you wouldn't understand.

 

[MC]

tell me about it

 

[bigvince]

isla,


have you been an exploited teenage girl?



and how were they being exploited if they chose tho dress that way? isn't that exploiting themselves?



(light harted comment dont take it too seriously)

bigvince,

Yes, I have been, and I know many others. Some survived and recovered (like me) and some have not (like my childhood friend who lost her kids to the State and dances at an ultra-skanky bar.) Seeing a girl that young with a baby tells me that she is going to have a harder time in life because she exploited herself/was exploited/bought into the objectification of women (women are valued as sex objects).

For me, seeing that girl, dressed like a hootchie mama and carrying that sweet (but clearly disadvantaged) baby is a symbol of all the girls out there who are not worried about making good grades and achieving something... they are worried about whether or not they are HOT to the boys. Oh, she was hot all right, and now what? That baby is a precious gift and tremendous responsibility. I only hope she has a terrific support system that will help her raise that baby safely.

Unless you are a female or have daughters, you can't really be aware of the price women pay for continuing to make sexual desirability our #1 trait. My oldest thinks of nothing but her weight now... My brilliant, sensitive child only values herself based on what some pimply boys think of her body. You have no idea how PAINFUL this is for me.


Anyway, I don't want to get into this with you guys. I can't fault you for not understanding or seeing what I am talking about. You are guys, this is your forum, and I am just visiting. Some of the guys here know what I mean, but most of them have daughters or someone else special in their lives who have made these issues more revelent to them.

Never mind me, I'm just sad at the state of the world this morning.

If you got hit by eggs or paint, you obviously did something wrong. When I was younger, we had a house that gave us a hard time. One year they would put up rope around their yard so the kids wouldn't walk on their grass. Try running from house to house in the dark when there is a rope in your way. One year he gave out apples, and another year he gave out cheap hard candy. This guy got his tires flattened, antenna broke, car egged, and tree TP'd every year. He never learned to just let the kids have some fun and collect some candy one night of the year. Instead, he wanted to fight with us.

My Halloween was good even though I had a touch of the flu I can always enjoy taking my girls trick or treating. The weather was beautiful with the Moon and stars shining brightly. Great!

Isla I understand where you're coming from. As the father of two beautiful daughters, I share many of the same concerns as you. Your daughters are fortunate though to have you as their mother setting such a wonderful example for them.

Yes our daughters are born with disadvantages in a predominately male society, but with our help and guidance I have no doubt our children will grow to be happy successful adults.

NOBODY came to our door last night! Maybe our pumpkins were carved a little too scary this year

We live in an area that's really growing up with nice houses, so who woulda thunk?

<< NOBODY came to our door last night! >>

You can send your candy to me then!

I remember one year, I bought a couple of bags of candys and when the kids rang the bell I took out the box and let them pick. Since the candy are loose, one kid took like half a box. After that, I start handing it out instead of letting them pick. Speaking of eggs...I got egg once a couple of years ago. One thing for sure...wash your car asap..otherwise, it will smell worst than SH*T!
