so polksalad - is that it?  is that the sickening remark

you were referring to?

I think it's a bit sick that anyone thinks virginity is the greatest gift.
Odd analogy.

awwww.....i think its sweet when a young couple

feels that way.   i watched a documentary recently

about young people with similar views -  yes very odd

these days but 'sick' - not  what came to mind..

(is postmenopause linked with hopeless romanticism? )

Gift, though?? really? lots if importance on a female's gift and none on the male's?

Not sure about the post menopause romanticism.............

yes really, that was exactly how they saw each

other - as gifts to one another - both, not just

females. it was really sweet.

you raise a good point there Az

Julia I don't remember and I don't really care who was interviewing him on radio, the point to me was here was this man who gave up a child for adoption at the age of 19, acting like some public moral compass. It just seemed hypocrtical to me.

He can advise his daughters however he likes in private, but it's not up to him to give moral advice to women in the community especially when he himself received and took advantage of "gifts"

you may not care but you should know by now

how most posters here feel about unsubstantiated

claims.

can't prove it - didn't happen.  

[debra9275]

what unsubstantiated claims?? Everyone knows it's fact he gave up a child for adoption at the age of 19

also your idea that he only said what he said because he was being interviewed by Women's Weekly... what are you inferring by that?? that he only says what people want him to hear? the words actually came out of his own mouth on radio, it wasn't just some article in a gossipy women's mag.

I always remember abbott saying 'not to believe everything he says"  I'll try and find it for you if you like
