During a visit to my doctor, I asked him, "How do you determine whether or not an older person should be put in an old age home?"
"Well," he said, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the person to empty the bathtub."
"Oh, I understand," I said. "A normal person would use the bucket because it is bigger than the spoon or the teacup."
"No" he said. "A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?"
I would post more, but everytime I login here, GTRu tells me I should be going to bed 
 LOL! Only joking, unless its my partner with paddle in hand
With the recent presedential speech by Mr Obama during his inauguration - he emphasised equality to our 'gay brothers and sisters'
I wonder whether this will lead to immigration reform, the collapse of DOMA and perhaps even the passing of UAFA
One can only hope and dream
Whatever happens my best wishes to everyone!
I genuinely would be careful here and I think it is best to discuss, kind of test the water …..
It depends on the type of discipline relationship you both are interested in, for example whether it is purely role play or a serious domestic discipline
lifestyle.
I did find it interesting that you mentioned you had been bratty and discipline may have saved your relationship from going sour, if that is the case and
you feel personally you need discipline then of course it can be very hot and spicy as well as keeping you on the straight and narrow.
In these instances either, it just happens nartuarlly as part of your relationship or you discuss it one to one ....
Digging out some cute ones - and just wait until you see the video clip I have in-store - Its just un F….... Believable!
Wow!
I had no idea this particular subject would be so interesting with such wide, inteligent and inspiring points of view.
I love what you have all said and I have to be honest, I need to digest all this before I can actually reply in a
way that makes sense and I will ….
Thank you everyone, for your contributions and comments are much appreciated on a subject I think personally
is very thought provocking, interesting and important.

have to admit I rellay live vintage movies and pics and some of the black and white ones are way cool!
Thats a good point, if we use the tags much easier to locate the clips.
I always tend to put spanking in the torrent title which also helps
Thanks, I can see where you are coming from and yes the underlying question is certainly about religious attitudes.
I guess what I am trying to really drill down to is the morality factor and religion as an influencer, did morality begin with
religion or has it been an evolving concept/characteristic within human nature?
We know that many persecutions, scare tactics and more have been driven by religious organizations as history shows us, and yet despite these events, has religion saved us from a greater evil by binding us with morality and in effect helped us to evolve to the modern attitudes we have on morality?
I am not saying that every country, race or individual has the same moral consdierations, only that there is by and large a number of accepeted morals throughout the world, for example theft and murder to name but two. I am not particulalry good at puting my mindset into words, it is difficult to actually qualify what I am atempting to say.
This is probably a rambling, but it is interesting to me at least, all comments and thoughts are welcomed.
When I think of religion, lots of different thoughts go through my mind, respect being one for it is essential (to me anyway)
that religon is respected. We have all seen the results of groups or individuals disrespecting others religous beliefs,
therfore it is a rather hot topic and deserving of respect.
To some religion brings comfort, hope, desire, belief, reassurance and probably many more I cannot think of as it can
be a very indivdual experience and for others perhaps disapointment, anguish, pain and again many more emotions
and feelings that I cannot characterize, not easily in any event.
Throughout history and indeed in todays modern world, social acceptance, governing laws and indeed morality are all
parts of both society and religion and I suggest that religion has played and still does a large part in this makeup
of our world.
There are things I really do not like about religion, influences that have been bolted into leaders minds and influence
their decisions and how they deal and view with minority groups or groups they simply do not care for because religion
has taught them these groups behaviours are immoral and not to be encouraged but rather the reverse.
Yet part of me is glad we have religion as without it would we ever have morality? Morality is after all
a man made concept is it not? Religious leaders have created moral frameworks throught our
lifes and our ancesters with the goal of establishing a way of life that keeps us out of despair and
anarchy. Without morality what type of species would man kind have evolved into? it is is certain
that the moral concept had to be created and thus someone had to do it and religion has certainly
been one of the main influencers in this respect.
