Careful, now, though: one could hardly refer to a more discredited organization than the Kinsey Institute. Its founder famously 'proved' that at least 10% of all people are straight-up homosexuals, with only 10% being straight-up heterosexuals, asserting that the remaining 80% were bisexual, leaning one way or another (real research has pointed to numbers between .5%-3% gay). The Kinsey Institute doesn't use what are labeled as empirical methods.

And, besides, @MeganC, you don't have to throw down all those emojis at us; we already know you're well taken care of in the sex department!exaspermoji.jpg
 
Some emojis might indicate a state of not getting any . . .

Today would have been Christie's 41st birthday. We didn't do much last year but after lunch today we're going to sing Happy Birthday around her tree and then share some cake and try to make it a happy time in her memory.

Christie is such a great example of how much one is missed because of how great it was to have one around when one was around. The loss is a reflection of the wonderfulness.

That reminded me of two of the best men I've ever known, who died suddenly and continue to be greatly missed. The first was a buddy from high school who dropped dead for no apparent reason a few months after his wedding, at the age of 23. The second was my brother in law (sister's husband) who was killed in a car accident out of the blue four years ago at 41.

Both deaths felt untimely to us, but apparently it was their time. None of us know the number of our days, but they were all numbered before a single one was.

Both of these men trusted in Christ, and I look forward to seeing them again.
 
I just love how service providers will send an extra sheet of paper with each month's mailed bill trying to convince me to enroll in paperless billing by guilt-tripping me about how paper is being wasted.
 
Off topic, but since this is for random subjects...

Have there been any threads dealing with female bisexual activity? I would be interested in perusing them. I know that some of y'all consider that acceptable behavior and would be interested in the reasoning behind that view.

I'm sure it has been discussed before, but I didn't see a thread.

I understand that female bisexuality isn't explicitly prohibited in the Bible the way that male homosexuality is. I do however believe it to be wrong, but think that it is somehow less offensive to God than male homosexuality.

It seems like less of a violation against patriarchy.

While the Bible may not specifically prohibit female bisexuality, I can't think of anywhere that the Bible endorses it.

This is very different than polygyny. The Bible clearly approved of the polygyny of Jacob, David, and Joash. Moreover the Bible is literally chocked full of examples of polygyny and simply treats it as marriage.

We have no recorded examples of female bisexuality. It is contrary to the created order, as the woman was made for the man. Lesbianism also seems to be addressed very negatively in Romans 1.

Basically, I believe it to be wrong, but I respect y'all and imagine that you likely have some support for your view. I would try to hear it with an open mind.

I suppose I would also throw threesome's in with this. That doesn't seem like proper conduct. It just seems like a porn fantasy. I don't see the patriarchs and heroes of the Faith doing that sort of thing.

The Bible doesn't directly prohibit me from sniffing glue bottles either, but doing so is stupid, dangerous, and unproductive.

Also, please pardon my abrasiveness.

The smiley face means please don't get mad and chew me up too much. Thanks

It has been discussed at length many times, @Bartato, with differences of opinion, so you will find people of like mind. I don't remember what all the exact threads are, but a search I just did in the Search bar helped me discover this one:
Female Vs Male Homosexuality

and
On why female homosexuality matters

but you could also send a private message to the Webmaster, @FollowingHim, to ask him if he can provide you more pointers.

Happy hunting!

I'd just use the search function also! I think Keith has found some good starting points for you.

Basically, the Bible doesn't ever mention female-female sexuality between wives. Not a single time. So we have no prohibition of it, nor endorsement of it. So we have to make up our own minds on what is correct based on principles.

And what a husband determines is law for his home. If he believes this to be contrary to the created order and thus wrong, then he will forbid it in his home and it would be confirmed as sin for his wives, because doing it would be disobeying their husband. On the other hand, another husband may believe differently, and as there is no clear scripture stating he is wrong, he's also entitled to that opinion (which becomes law for his home). In both cases the husband will bear the responsibility for his actions at the Judgement.

Anyway, most wives wouldn't actually be interested in it with the other wife their husband happened to choose for himself, so the likelihood of having to grapple with this question is even slimmer than the likelihood of actually finding a second wife! It's not something most people really need to concern themselves with as it's unlikely to occur, and if it ever did you could figure it out when you got there.
