Daddy's Dating Rules

[Byzantine Prince]

Beirut, it's dad's like you that give a bad impression to their sons. YOU date anyone you find attractive for the obvious purpose of sex and if you hypothetically had sons, they would get the impression that it's ok to act that way. So in other words you're the last person to be complaining about this.

As for me personally, my parents never talked about dating or anything that is more then a friendship with girls, and till about the time I was 17 I was scared to even touch a girl inappropriately. Especially one I didn't know for years. I'm not saying because it's like some sad story, this is the way it should be. Kids are not suposed to have sex unless their parents agree of course, which is totally reasonable in my book.

Also, you can't blame boys for wanting to have sex when the girls want it just as badly. You don't have the right to chase them around with a knife or a shotgun or whatever in order to exact revenge if something hapens between them. I alway thought women were equal to men, by doing that you are affirming the popular belief among rednecks that women are objects to be owned.

Bp, Beriut is what all people are: protective. Very possibly it will be some damn schmuk who doesn't really care about her.
That said, I really can't contribute since I'm not a parent, and I've never dated...

Just sign at the bottom of the page, right beside where it says "Organ Donor".

No, I'm the first. I am "father" to two little girls who's biological progenetor walked out on them. I know first hand the consequences of irresponsible men and now it's my job to repair the situation. Part of that is to protect my little sweeties from other irresponsible men and to make them feel safe in the world.

Yes, my sons, if I had any, would be raised like me. To see women as desirable on many levels. What they would also see as well is that there are responsibilities that go along with their actions and you can only be a man when you accept and live up to those responsibilties. You want to bang some broad, great. You make a baby - get a job boy. 'Cause y'all got some bills to pay.

As for me personally, my parents never talked about dating or anything that is more then a friendship with girls, and till about the time I was 17 I was scared to even touch a girl inappropriately.

You are of course free to view relationships and morality as you see fit. I am in no position to say you are wrong about anything.

Also, you can't blame boys for wanting to have sex when the girls want it just as badly. You don't have the right to chase them around with a knife or a shotgun or whatever in order to exact revenge if something hapens between them. I alway thought women were equal to men, by doing that you are affirming the popular belief among rednecks that women are objects to be owned.

Of course I can't blame the boys for wanting to have sex. But I sure as hell can if they plan on having it with anybody living in my house.

Oh, I would use an axe. I like axes. And any boy who shows up at my door with romantic intentions will know to the depths of his soul just how much I love axes.

Women are equal in some ways and not in others. And to the limits of each specific relationship, and in different contexts, women are to be owned. But that ownership comes with an equal or greater amount of responsibility. Authority without responsibility is for cowards. If I work all week, get up early every morning and feed the kids so my woman can sleep late, if I walk the kids to the school bus stop every morning and then walk back home to get ready for work, if I tuck them in every night and clean up their barf at 3AM when they're sick, if I help them with their homework and guard them when they play in the park, then I have earned the right to act the redneck with my woman from time to time.

Besides, she likes it.

Authority and responsibility on equal terms. That's what lets a man act like a man. And until the boy at the door with romance in his heart has proven that he can live up to those standards, he's nothing but a target for my wrath.

Hello Beirut,

A question: Would you let your daughters have sex if it was protected, or are you against anything at least for now.

I'm sure you're a great dad, and do all you can to give your daughter a good start in her life! But, in case it does happen, please don't kill the boy. We don't want to lose senior members, and there are no computers in prison.

Considering one is seven and the other is nine, I plan on having them keep their relationships platonic for the next decade or two. Mind you, my nine year-old does has a "boyfriend". He's much too young and cute to kill just yet. In four or five years maybe.

I'm sure you're a great dad, and do all you can to give your daughter a good start in her life! But, in case it does happen, please don't kill the boy. We don't want to lose senior members, and there are no computers in prison.

Ha!

Just be horrifically honest and have a handshake like steel. Then let's see Daddy try and get in the way.

Could you be as brave looking into the eyes of a man who would count it as entirely reasonable to spend the rest of his life in prison to protect his little girl?

I don't have kids yet but I would do the same for any of my family.

LoL. Post-feminism, lumberjack style...

We DO all understand that what may be appropriate at 16 is going to be a bit weird at 21, though, right? I mean, I personally am not actually planning that my daughter should be a virgin for life (though to be honest as she is six months I haven't given the subject a whole lot of thought just yet.)

[Drisos]

Considering one is seven and the other is nine

my nine year-old does have a boyfriend

What?? At the age of nine years old?

I'm 16 now(uhhhhh, wait! I got it. . I think I'm 16 ) and still am too shy mostly to even touch a girl.

[Big King Sanctaphrax]

Seeing as this seems to have become a discussion on sexual ethics, I'm going to move it.

[Drisos]

I agree.

To backroom?

That's the least Nietzschean thing you've ever said.

[Byzantine Prince]

Nietzsche might condur.

HoweverI do believe that you should have parental permision at that age before having sex. I know a person could be ready for it even really early, but I think that that innocence about it should be kept as long as possible.

I doubt Nietzsche was a virgin.

[Beirut]

Wasn't he in love with his sister?

"Wher's ma banjo, ma?"

[Magraev]

You young kids (argh - First time I've said that) just don't get the feeling that can fill a guy where a kid he's responsible for (mostly girls) are concerned. The knowledge that absolutely nothing would be out of order to protect the child. This makes clear darwinian sense, even though your own genes aren't actually involved.

That why that list goes from being absurd to making a scary kind of sense as you get older.

At which age?

Well he's quite large so I could probably outrun him. Or squeeze through small holes and hide.

Anyway how would you have parental permission for sex? It's just too horrible to even comprehend.

Maybe he's 7' tall, 350lbs and armed to the teeth.

My friend states his brother (in grade 2) has over 16, and kissed more than half of them.

Are you sure that's not sexual harassment?

[GoreBag]

It isn't if the girls like to be kissed or kiss him too.

Why do you ask, BP?

[bmolsson]

You should have sex while you are young. It's so much more fun when you are a teenager.....

Don't understand this post. . .please translate into (simple-to-understand) English . . .

[Steppe Merc]

His friend's brother has 16 girl friends, and has kissed more than half. That brother is in 2nd grade.

[Drisos]

Thanks steppe merc!

Only: how can he have 16 girl friends?? Don't they mind? Or don't they know?

[Magraev]

Maybe one at a time ???

[GoreBag]

I think he meant "has had", not "has".

[JimBob]

Reminds me of when my sister went on her first date (don't have any kids of my own, call it a work in progress ) . Anyway my dad and I (about 16-17 at the time) sat in the living room cleaning a number of guns. As the date entered (about 14 pimply first date and all that) he sees us, my dad stands wearing a t-shirt and boxers only and shakes his hand, gives him a crazed look and says "Sorry for the mess, we're going hunting tommorow, and gotta prepare. There's nothing like hunting" and this continued as a 4 minute discourse on the joys of stalking prey and killing it. When he was finished the kid was quite shaky and I come up put my arm around him and tell him that he can do what he wants, drugs, booze, whatever so long as he don't get caught. Cause I got friends in the system. Showed him a fake tatoo and a 'shank scar' and this kid positively pissed himself. The women folk weren't happy with us but the look on that kid's face made the world a better place.
