Those countries understand the significance of it. If you have ever met anyone from those countries they generally work hard, stick to themselves and do not complain, meaning they are grateful for what they have, not claiming they are owed anything from society (victimese).

And most societies that have collapsed, did so due to loose morals.

There’s an ocean between kill the gays and f*** anything you want.

Left is probably more concerned by using the words “opposite sex” instead of hundreds of others genders.

Isn't there some old proverb about if you love something, set it free?

I personally don't care what rules this couple makes and follows for their relationship. But it's odd to have brightline, black and white rules prohibiting normal conduct such as simply being in a room with the opposite sex.

Marxist claim that's not real communism.

Yes, the destruction of Western values are necessary to usher in our marxist technocracy. Hence the hatred of everything Western and WHite. Marxism attacks language and culture first.

I am a little surprised he didn't insist on a rule against tight skirts in public around that booty.

1. No watching pornography

4. No friends with the opposite sex


1.)
2.) in what context? alone in a secluded, non-public spot, ok, that makes sense... but "alone" for coffee or lunch with a client/for business, etc? this is the only one that makes some sense out of the 4, fwiw
3.) what about for business? you mean every single texts has to be signed off on? c'mon man... that's retarded...
4.) :rotflmao: bro, ask for your balls back

I have zero desire for pornography while in a relationship. Maybe that will change one day.

Nothing wrong with this unless it's been a very established friendship before you met your significant other.

I used to text an old female buddy of mine. Hardly any romantic feelings (there’s always the potential for some) and mostly platonic.

We would just shoot the shite on occasion and talk about what was going on in our lives. I stopped when it was becoming obvious that the husband thought something was up.

I’m pretty good at being married (15 years) and I wouldn’t care if my wife did any of those. Hell, I encourage her to watch porn hoping she learns some new kinky shite to try

that's respectable and understandable... but it goes to the point... you had a friend, with a vagina, that you communicated with, without having to have a signed affidavit for, without anything scandalous happening... it's not impossible, like many seem to think

If you can’t handle your SO being friends with the opposite sex then I think there’s likely some insecurity/trust issues going on.

Friends is not the same thing as acquaintances. My wife and I have always traveled for business and have acquaintances we get along with from work or clients. That is different than the the husband or wife meeting a friend for lunch or to go shopping.

Her - "Hey honey, while you're at work today, me and Ramone are going to go shopping. He's so honest with me and will tell me if something makes my arse look too big. Want me to pick up something for you while I'm out? A new tie? Some underwear? Genital warts?"

Solid rules. Wife and I have lived by the same for 17 years. No jacking off is the only other rule we have.

I mean if that’s the relationship norms they agreed to mutually then it’s not really anyone’s business.

Absolutely

But I’d argue there’s some insecurity rooted in some of those rules or that there may be trust issues in the relationship.

Also, absolutely.

A couple of those would be difficult if not impossible to follow in work situations.
