What does this mean?
In the big picture, movement will have to be made on both ends to close the gap simply because at the end of the day there will always be far more 19 yr old girls than 23 yr old boys.
Is this you’re way of pretending to back away from what you said and then slyly go to it again.
BOYS SHOULD NEVER EVER BE PUSHED TO DATE BEFORE THEY ARE READY.
If you want to make a push for boys to marry older girls that’s very nice sweet and thoughtful of you. But you are doing it so wrong that you are hurting you’re cause.
Inherintley, I think you might have a valid suggestion. Nothing new. I’ve heard it for years. You definiatley didn’t make it up and this has been around for quite some time.
That suggestion can be summed up in one line – Show boys that there is no difference between an older girl and a younger girl.
This is a very debated subject and you hold one side in it.
The reason you create waves is because you take it and run with it to such a level that you make yourself (and everyone who you claim is supporting you) look really stupid. Girls should start going out later. Boys should start going out earlier then ready. (Don’t deny you are saying this.) That’s rediculous.
Oh, and BTW, there are plenty other ways to help this exact issue. Like telling girls to actually figure out what they want to do in life, and work towards that – so that when they are on the market they will have a solid stance in life.
Generally, unless the girl knows what she wants to do in life, and is on the path to doing it, (and being a full time mother from the time you get married isn’t knowing what you want to do – it’s knowing what you don’t want to do), I, and a lot of people I know, won’t go out with them. And the older they get, the more down the path you have to be. The problem is a lot of girls, waste 2 years after seminary relaxing and trying to get married, and don’t think about maybe going to school and getting a job or something.
