Oh, okay. I work in a library and read all kinds of books. This book was challenging to read in the arena that it did affect my sensibilities, but I sifted through all that because I really wanted to read the experiences she had with this. I do read some more off color things sometimes just to try and get the whole picture.

And herein lies the big question of the day. What is sinister about men seeing beautiful women? There has to be a line that crosses from men having eyes to see with and lusting wrongly. I have no idea where that line is. But it has to exist. I have seen men, as Miss B says, speak respectfully to scantily clad women and treat them as persons who deserve respect. These men have great respect in my eyes. I rarely saw it in church, however, where they usually simply condemned the woman as a sexual temptation. Really, where is the problem here?

I just can't do that. I think I'm too emotional to know everything. I just don't want to know. Books, music and movies can affect me greatly!
And just reading certain passages of scripture can bring me to tears.
I just need someone like my husband. He keeps my whole world safe. LOL!

Good question.
We have our good days and bad days. Noble moments and not-so-noble moments.
