    Just one stick of dynamite down the rabbit hole.... and kaboom!!! Problem solved.
    I don't think that will work. That rabbit hole is huge.

    Do you like what you see today? Shouldn't we try and work things out? Or should we just sit around and let everything go further down the rabbit hole?

    I think we should all let loose and let nature take it's course. Trying to control Armenian woman is only going to make em rebel. Let it all go. I think in the long run, the Armenian Diaspora will find itself in a more comfortable and evolved state.

    We're heading down that road anyway. No point in slowing it down. And hey, you might like what you see in the end.

Here is a little eye opener, tomboys are into athletics and other things boys do so when they develop a chest, they feel uncomfortable with the change to their bodies. Maybe I'm just a little simple minded....
    Or maybe way too much self-assured... thanks for 'enlightening' me, but she was well beyond that age...

    When did I say such a thing?? Can you stop distorting what is being said??

Armenian women should remain under Armenian, family culture, not some stupid American culture (if you can call it culture). If armenian women follow under American culture they turn into kim kardashian and I think you know what happens then.

    Quoted for truth and should be the ending post to this thread.

    lol Of course it was sarcasm. Of course, you were simply asking where I grew up.

    "A criminal is frequently no equal to his deed: he makes it smaller and slanders it." (Nietzsche)
    I see that you lack the courage to assume yourself, to assume your actions, and you're trying to hide behind distortions and maybe lies. Where is that "courage and virility" that men often brag out?


    It means that you may not be a honest person worthy of consideration and respect. It has nothing to do with being Armenian.
    Asvadz indzi ooj togh da... you can literally drive someone insane. This is what I wrote you in my message:

    Listen, I know you're trying to get a point across but could you be a bit more clear. I think you can see how I find it insulting how you're criticizing our culture when you haven't defined WHAT you think our culture is. Different Armenians from different parts of the world have kept more of our traditional culture than others.

    So if you don't mind me asking, I'm just wondering a little about your background. Were you born in France? Where is your family originally from?

    Thanks!


    And you replied:

    Wow you make less sense in private than in public.

The ones I saw were wearing tight (stretched) shirts under their T-shirt, in order to make their chest (which was pretty flat by the way, compared to average women) invisible. I was just curious to see if they were comfortable with their sexuality so I adressed one of them the question, she said she was pretty comfortable with being a woman and said she had never worn a dress before, lol. Then she told me that she has been asked a million times whether she is a lesbian...

    Yea, this is kind of the limit. That's why I believe not everything that is being done willingly and with no sense of compliance can be considered charming.
