Fresh Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 While not specific to any sexuality how does N-europe feel towards ages differences in relationships? What would be socialy acceptable? Should there, for any reason, be anything unacceptable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chairdriver Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 I think the "half + 7" rule appeases most people. It depends on the context really, in my opinion. How rapey the older is, and how impressionable the younger is. Also depends on gender roles in the relationship. "This could be messy, and I don't seem to mind." "Just don't go telling anybody, and overlook this supposed crime." Fastforward to a few years later, no one knows but the both of us, I've more than honoured your request for silence, and you've washed your hands clean of this.

jayseven Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 To me, gay pride has always essentially been an excuse to dress up, get fucked off my face and party hardcore. The whole sex thing kinda slips past me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EEVILMURRAY Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 I assumed gay pride marches being generally over the top is a reaction to the fact people weren't meant to be proud of it for hundreds of years. So your logic here is that they dress up like complete tools because they're making up for lost time? Bullshit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 They dress up to express who they are/their sexuality/their pride in their sexuality/to have fun. You interpret it as tool-like attire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chairdriver Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 So your logic here is that they dress up like complete tools because they're making up for lost time? You underestimate the effect living a lie/oppressed/in an unwelcoming society has on people. If you've lived your whole life in a hyper-christian village in the depths of America, scared that people will find out your secret, and then you finally move away to San Francisco, the first thing you'll do is become the stereotype, because that's what you've so longed to be able to do all your life.

Ashley Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 I'd disagree with that. Some, probably many, may for a while go "balls to the wall" (to steal an American expression) but I'd imagine it would be a brief period of 'settling'. I don't think you could say that its inevitable, nor could you say they become an iconic stereotype. Mostly neither here nor there, but just thought I'd throw it into the here. Still, if its written by Tina Fey then it becomes comedy gold. Liz: "I'm taking you to the bus stop." Randy smiles joyously. Liz: "To get a bus home!"

mr_bogus Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 How much effect does a person's voice (pitch/accent/etc) have on you? (What made me wonder, embarrassingly, was Joanna's voice on Perfect Dark XBLA compared to PD Zero ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 In short, potentially loads. This is why I should really keep my mouth shut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nightwolf Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 An awful lot. Far more than most people would admit. I'll freely admit that an irish accent is bloody hot. Although the boys posh voice is pretty awesome, what with me being a dirty northener! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I know there's accents that put me off, but none in particular that I find really attractive. Sometimes voices are realy hypnotic though, not in a sexual way. There was some invigilator for an exam once who was from the north of Scotland/the islands, and she had that kinda high voice thing. I wanted her to speak to me forever. (I've heard the accent loads, dunno why it was just this random old woman who stunned me.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoogleViper Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I found Morgan Le Flay's (Tales of Monkey Island) voice hot. I was disappointed when I googled who it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I find voice soothing. But not in a sexual way. Just thought I'd throw that in. Kristen Bell's voice always does it for me too. She can snarkily narrate my life anytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_bogus Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I've heard so many people say Irish accents do it for them; unfortunately in my case they just remind me of all the old Catholic priests & nuns from when i was growing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fierce_LiNk Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 The French accent is a huge turn on. That's awesome because I lived with a French girl in Halls, and she had many French friends who often came around. They came, and so did I. I also quite like the Spanish-y sort of accent, as well. Very, very hot. Ine's got a voice which does it for me, which I'm surprised at because I never imagined the Flemish or Dutch accent to be particularly sexy on girls, but it is. Although, I bet she can't say the same about my accent or voice. I used to know a girl who had an American accent, and it sounded quite nice. But, I think if I spent every day of my life with somebody who had a really thick one, it would probably get on my nerves. I think the same could be said for the Australian accent, too. Used to work with a girl who had it, and it sounded less sexy as time went by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Aussie accent is alright, I'd take it over the American anyday. It all depends upon where the person is from though, this place is such a mash of so manny different accents that even the slightest movement across a city and you'll find new words and new sayings.

Ashley Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Actually I was watching something yesterday set in Aus (oh, the news story about Hamilton) and I just can't take the accent seriously most of the time. Its the child in me. In fact, sums it up nicely. Although... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaggis Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 (edited) I'm having a night out with some close friends on friday, and both they and myself would love if I bought my boyfriend along. However, this would entail him staying with me for the night. My parents are well aware I'm gay (I didn't tell them, my sister discovered this on facebook) and my dad has been nothing but supportive. My mum however hasn't said a thing. Her behaviour toward me hasn't changed at all, but because we've never spoken about it...I'm terrified of bringing up the idea of having Chris come and stay. I just don't know how to approach it. God, I wish I was back at Uni. Then this wouldn't be an issue. Eurgh.
