Re: Figure skating
come on my dears
you think you can talk in foreign tongues and overlook lil ole me...
now back to the subject
they arent wearing enough clothes
especially for frolicking on ice and then they contort and pick each other up and do all sorts
I think its not the kind of thing you should watch
Re: Figure skating
LD he said : the order to keep your gaze down was meant for everyone.
I replied that watching tv is sorta hard if you have to look down the entire time.
Anyhow LD darling whats it matter? You enjoy it , keep watching right? One mustnt force their views upon others. I heard guppies say its haram.
Anyhow I tried skating. I landed on my rear too many times and gave up. Sigh.
Re: Figure skating
Lazy D, I totally agree with you.
Re: Figure skating
really- then how come i always read or hear “men lower your gaze”. as far as my dictionary is concerned men = male beings…
there are very few of those men who are fine looking but mostly i find them gay…
Re: Figure skating
i nearly broke my ankle...
i think winter sports are overrated
Re: Figure skating
Nia, I am sure someone will come here & post the relevant verses. I can too but coming from others it might sound more authentic.
Lazy_D, Since they kicked out the last American board member from the Winter Olympics, I too consider them overrated.
Re: Figure skating
a more important question. Why do women like wearing minimum on ICE?
(lowering gazes goes for both. Starts with "oh believing men AND women....The end)
Re: Figure skating
AJ, they deserved to be kicked out
I have absolutely no idea why.. but I suppose being American was a good enough factor:cb:
Re: Figure skating
MQ, its not that they like the pretty sparkly costumes at all
its for aerodynamiccy stuff
Re: Figure skating
Actually they are two verses, one after the other, one for men and next for women but that's a different topic.
eidt: Lazy, You can kick us out of a board, we kick people out of their own countries.
Re: Figure skating
If we lower our gazes... and just look at their feet... its very like with teh twirling and contorting taht occasionally you get to see more by mistake...
I think AJ just shouldnt watch altogether
Re: Figure skating
Did you know that they took out baseball & softball from the summer Olympics? These crazy Europeans.
Edit Again: And if it makes you girls feel any better, I CAN SKATE!
Re: Figure skating
baseball is just glorified game of rounders..
and as everyone knows
Rounders is a girls game
