cousin's husband just told me that IF couples shouldn't marry
Oh. My. God. my brother posted something about gay marriage (he's for it) and our super religious cousin-in-law starts chiming in with his 2 cents and how marriage is for procreation, etc...so i asked about couples with IF and he said "no. not at all."
about to lose it on him

The Journey of Me
Vacation, 2011
The the blessing and curse of FB. You learn how ignorant people you know/are close to are. And you learn how ignorant people you know/arre close to are. Double edged sword to say the least.
I never knew the ginormous amount of ignorant people I grew up with because stuff never came up in conversation. But by the stuff they put out there as status updates and groups they join, I feel like they could be heading up the racial revolution. I'd be sent to the ovens for sure.
i just asked that LOL. i'm dying to hear what he has to say.
i knew he was super religious and didn't agree with gay marriage, etc but to have him say that even IF straight couples shouldn't marry just blows my mind. good thing i never really liked his wife anyway
and this is his response...
The church used to grant annulments for it.
But, yes, i totally disagree.
right, it is NEVER the man's fault.
can you ask him if men should stop having sex with their wives once they reach menopause? because then there's no chance of procreation - which means old people sex is a no-no.
LOL!! LOVE this!!
although i agree that he is just craving attention, i need to know what incompatible means...
and then erica's question too...
Wait, doesn't that mean "old people marriage is a no-no"?
I am guessing incompatible means P into V is compatible V plus V is not?
(sorry I'm not sure what words the nest will censor)
that's what i figured...but want to make him squirm with an explantion!
Duh. When my eggs dry up i'm checking into an all girls nursing home and sending DH to an all mens nursing home. no more funny business for us! no way, no how! we'll continue our relationship via letter.
yup. no old people marriage. or sex for gratification, no handy hand, no bj's, no natural family planning. sex is purely for baby makin' don'tcha-know
"does that make sense" I can almost hear a tone of voice to that question
But that isnt what he 1st said, you asked if couples with IF should marry and he said No, not at all.
I cant stand people who are so overly religious it clouds common sense, and even worse is a overly religious back peddler
How about we all stop worrying about what goes on between adult people & their private parts (BCPs & gay marriage) and focus on what we can do to turn this country around for our kids. ugh, I am cranky today
How would you even know you are IF before trying? And according to that logic, he and his wife should only have sex when TTC. No sex otherwise. .
That being said - that man is a complete ahole and moron. I'd defriend him just for that comment
