How compatible are an Aries woman and a Taurus man?
ARIES & TAURUS This can be a fantastic match and often makes for a winning combination. The Taurean nature is ruled by Venus, the Goddess of Love, which is exactly what an Arian always seeks in a mate. Taurus appreciates the outward nature of Aries and Aries appreciates the earthy nature of Taurus. There are many vast differences between the two personalities however and, sometimes, the very qualities they initially appreciate in each other are the ones which, over time, they can come to dislike. Although the Taurus half of this combination, being somewhat on the slow-moving side, may find the going a bit hectic, Arian excitement often helps to stimulate the relationship. The Aries partner, however, should make every effort to stifle temperamental outbursts, because Taurus is not emotional on the surface and can become quietly obstinate when angry. The chance is quite excellent that this pairing will lead to a lasting relationship. Should a break-up occur, then the Taurean may come surprisingly to life and give the fiery Aries a run for his or her money. Nevertheless, most Aries/Taurus combinations are thought of as "matches made in Heaven" and, once a relationship is established, it is unlikely that this pair will part company. Aries is an impatient, energetic and rather domineering sign, but Taurus is usually able to show the Mars-ruled Aries the error of his or her ways once they meet on a common level. Both are highly sensual, but Aries may become annoyed by the deliberate pace and unimaginative romantic overtures of Taurus. Taurus is a homebody ...Aries most definitely is not, being impulsive by nature, fond of freedom and constantly on the lookout for new experiences. On the other hand, Taureans are set in their ways, possessive and jealous, often viewing as personal rejection the Aries need to be an individual. While Taurus is good at making money, Aries is even better at spending it. To make it through the "long haul" can be very tough going for this combination but, if they hang on long enough, then Aries will eventually come to deeply appreciate the steadiness and dependability offered by the Taurean nature.
What is your opinion of this argument concerning women's capacity to consent to heterosexual intercourse?
Ten or fifteen years ago, I could not have taken any of this seriously. Now, I am more inclined to examine it. I do not believe sex is rape, or rape is sex, but I think the question whether women who consent in the legal sense really consent out of their own free will and desire is worth asking. I read my college roommates diary years ago. It was a rotten thing to do and God punished me by letting me read how she lost her virginity in high school. It sounded very much like she had submitted to unpleasant sex that hurt, because she thought she was supposed to. She had told me that her brother had told her boyfriend to "tie her down and rape her". At the time I thought it was vulgar, but did not consider that a girl my age might have felt threatened hearing this, from her brother or her boyfriend. Now, I could consider the argument that unconsciously she was avoiding rape by submitting to painful sex. I still can't quite believe that she would have thought her boyfriend would force sex with her, but neither did I quite believe that an intelligent girl would let someone hurt her. That's anecdotal. I don't know to what extent trends can be established from...Yahoo Answers Women's Health (Question: I'm fifteen. How bad does first sex hurt. Answer. A lot. Lube up. It gets better after a few times.) I don't enjoy porn and I don't watch it. I've looked at it. It's stupid. The only nagging concern I have about people watching it is that the women are not sexually aroused. Erection to the contrary, neither are the men. It makes sex seem really stupid. It has occurred to me that if men do not know what a really turned on woman looks like, and they think porn is sex, then "consent" really is just a matter of the girl saying "OK". They can poke it in a girl who's said "OK" with neither of them knowing that what they are doing is actually closer to rape than sex. It's no wonder girls come to some mornings convinced they've been raped while their partner protests that they had consensual sex. If girls dont know the difference between submission and consent, or sex and porn's penis poking activity, but boys are acting in good faith that this is sex and the girl said "OK", you can arrive at perpetratorless rape, or rape without a rapist.
Should women be held more accountable for unwanted pregnancies?
1. Condoms are not reliable as you might believe! 2. When women lie, mis-tell the truth, try and make a man more responsible, surprise him, use pregnancy force a man to stay with you, find a man that can support a child even though she doesn't want him in her life (sperm donor + wallet x18years), or the best excuse I've ever heard (sadly more than once) I was young and stupid. In all those situations she should be 100% responsible Simply put, a Woman get pregnant (by choice): Woman want a child + Woman's right to choose = Woman's choice (a child is born) Woman doesn't want a child + Woman's right to choose = Woman's choice (birth control) Man want a child + Woman's right to choose = Woman's choice (he's a chump) Man doesn't want a child + Woman's right to choose = Woman's choice (he's a deadbeat dad) All above choices equal Woman's right to choose. Women are given 100% responsibility in the choice in what ever she chooses. But when the burden of cost is involved then a man is involved. And even then he doesn't have a choice. If a court rules against him, his choices are 1. Pay (legal) or Don't pay (illegal). If we came up with a sexual contract that is signed before each in counter, Then what ever is agreed to should be legally enforced! It's always the children that suffer, if a woman TRULY cared about the well being of her child SHE would responsibly choose a mate that will be a continually involved father. By the way it's B.S. to say that there are no men out there that fit that description. (edit) Let's try this in another context. A man and woman get together, then a couple of weeks later she finds out that "they" bought a house together (without her consent or knowledge). The man decides to keep the house and live in the house, and because they were together, she is now responsible for half of the house. She complains, now she's seen a trouble maker and is now labeled as an abuser. Now she's not even allowed to see the house let alone be in the house. She says F this, I never wanted this house, it was bought with out my consent or permission, I ain't paying. Now she's a dead beat, and is going to jail. That doesn't seem logical does it?
