Is it though? How do guys who follow this rule ever get married in the first place? Or is the concept somehow that unmarried men can't be "set up"? For those of you who follow this rule, were you ever alone with your wife before marriage? barfo
If I were Billy Graham, et al, I'd work to be certain I was never set up. Me, personally? The thought never crossed my mind,
I don't live life worrying about it either, nor should I, as I strive to never give anyone even the thought that they may accuse me of something. I can however understand why a politician may have some sort of rule like this. They are under a lot more public scrutiny than I am. I can't think of anyone that would really have much to gain from accusing me of sexual harassment.
Either do I. We are talking bout politicians here, men in power. A growing number of them have been acused of things. Many rightfully so. But, there have also been false accusations. I understand the candidates reasoning.
Non-story here. A married man not wanting to be alone with another woman for an extended period of time for religious or moral reasons is NOT uncommon, nor is it unacceptable. And given the proclamations of this country being a “rape culture”, you can’t blame a person for playing it safe. I had a coworker who’s wife was uncomfortable about him sharing an office with another female coworker. Arrangements were made to accommodate them, it wasn’t a big deal, and the sun did rise the next day. I will say the guy could have handled it better to make it easier for himself and others, but like others said, he doesn’t appear to be that smart. Hey, maybe that’s a revelation though, a politician that is too dumb to be conniving. We may be onto something here. Alternate scenario: The guy just didn't want anybody with him because he was going to bang hookers on his trip and he didn’t want the old lady to find out.
We don't know the full situation with dude or his wife. I'm not gonna judge. If dude doesn't want to be with her by himself why do we care? Ninja got rekt for the same thing. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.po...2018/8/11/17675738/ninja-twitch-female-gamers
Nope. But the fact she can’t handle her guy sitting in a freaking office with a woman tells me all I need to know. Ridiculous
You'd be surprised with some people, men or women. I generally don't give a shit, but I've worked with some coworkers straight up bat shit crazy. And I knew I could not be with that person alone.
Then you refuse to work/sit with that particular person. Because they are bat shit. That’s different than blanketing all women as a threat.
No, I've experienced this coworker making false accusations towards me and other people. This usually happens when this person is alone with somebody else. I know this person is bat shit crazy and so do some other people because of experiencing it. So, that has changed how I am around certain people now. Not all, but some. It's not a fun experience and I can only imagine how it would be magnified with a person in politics.
I did mean like a small single room office, not like an office building, to be clear. Not sure if that detail makes a difference. Everyone lives a different experience. It’s quite possible that not everyone demonstrates the same gleaming self-assurance as you in their relationships.
