Christian men please note. Sweet Taylor is singing a song about a douchebag. Its a song about about alpha love. More precisely it's about 5 mins of alpha love.One line of lyrics from Miss Swift's song is "...but I just thought, how can the devil be pulling you toward someone who looks so much like an angel when he smiles at you?" Indeed, this story has been the same since the Garden--the Deceiver fakes out man and woman. How much easier is it to deceive when man or woman is convinced that the rush of urge-to-merge chemicals is "true love", denoting the "one", and to follow your feelings?
Taylor Swift's transformation is a good example of how a man should not conflate beauty with goodness. Frequently, when it comes to women, beauty is conferred on those who are otherwise moral idiots. A good woman is not just pretty but has good character. Now go and read this post by Roosh V.
For Christian men, the pickings are mighty slim.
Simon Grey, in the comments section to SP's post, said it best: the pickings have always been mighty slim for Christian men (cf Proverbs 31). The spirit-controlled woman's worth is far more than rubies; for her values make her and women like her scarce.

It is a lie that we are all told (men and women) - that our "natural" tendencies are good.
How can something that feels so right be so wrong? Because we are inherently sinful beings and the flesh desires worldly things, but the spirit longs for the divine. But being in communion with the divine requires discipline, structure, and boundaries - ultimately forsaking to some degree all that is "natural." And this is what is supposed to inherently distinguish us from animals - animals do what is natural. Human beings who do what is natural are just animals forsaking what makes them human.

Came across this link today... don't know if you've seen it before, but it is kinda fascinating. Especially the Industrial Revolution bit. Good bit of discussion could be had on it.

Thx Christina
Yeah, my little brother commented to me the other day about another vixen; Miley ray Cyrus.
Granted, she seems totally off the wall; yet is marrying someone she has known forever. I guess she, I don't read up on gossip so I will take his word for it.
Yet in image alone, Taylor Swift is portrayed the angel. Cyrus is painted like a demon?
I guess Hollywood types show their favoritism too one who is clearly one of their own (swift). While rejecting one who is not no matter how how much like them they dresses (Cyrus).
At least they (Hollywood types) are consistent with their beliefs and actions in that regard. Not that that is saying much, if anything positive at all?
Immorality is easy that way. I don't know if Cyrus is the closet saint my local teenager tells me she is. If she is, it is amazing, and rare for the famous type.
Thanks for the link love EW.
BTW, very good comment Christina.
The emotional proclivities of women are absolutely the same as the sexual proclivities of men. These are the gateways to sin, wrong behavior, for the genders in a generalization sort of way. Sure we are all snowflakes and can fall prey to either or, but these are the created proclivities.
But we live in a church world where feelings ARE virtue,and chasing the experience of feelings is above reproach.
"The emotional proclivities of women are absolutely the same as the sexual proclivities of men. These are the gateways to sin, wrong behavior, for the genders in a generalization sort of way."
The MRM really needs to get its agenda cohesive. One minute women who follow their heart rather than their machiavellien mind only after a man's wallet, are saints, the next minute its women in love who are the real whores.
Amusing.
