Question about morals
How is the pic in this ad:
any less offensive or adult than the very tasteful, artistic pics of Bonnielass that caused such an uproar a while back?
edit: this was lifted from the welcome page of this site - it's a rotating banner ad.
apparently the stated intolerance for exposed skin on a female form disappears if you write a check?

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm deeply offended . . . . that she is not on the back of my Bonneville hanging on to me tightly!  |

Obviously this dating service is run by non-motorcyclists. If you click on the ad, the screen that appears shows a couple without any riding gear (Helmets, jackets, etc,) whatsoever and the sunglasses they both are wearing wouldn't do much good after about 10 MPH.
As to the first advert - women (and maybe men) need to learn that they are usually much more attractive and alluring WITH clothes on, adding to the mystery and mystique of what's possibly underneath if you are proven worthy.
As for being moral or not... I'd say the ad suggests a means to obtain female sex for a fee, Vs. meeting someone interesting. I'm not a prude, but I would leave these type of ads for the Tatoo / doo-rag / look at me I'm tough this weekend / Harley squidder set.
Lose it!

bonniegirl,
You've gone and done it. I just had a conversation with a woman at work about 5 minutes ago and I used the word "snarled". I thought about it and commented that I hadn't used that word for probably ten years, if not more. But we had a long conversation about that word and words in general, but specifically that word.
And now I read it in your post. I'll bet if you re-read all posts here, you won't find that word once. Ah, the odd happenstances. I love it.
Thanks for "snarly".

As many of you might have realized by now - there are Huge Double Standards on this website and it all depends on who you are and if you are making the website money or your not!
Now hurry up and edit this out before anyone reads this and thinks about it!

You got it spot on - you give the guy money and you can do anything you want! |
