Physical attraction (the most important thing).
Posted : 1 Jul, 2011 10:24 PM

I have an idea, let's have a photo rating system, I was thinking numbers 1 through 10. 1 being inhumanly ugly and 10 being stunning.

Who all is willing to go under the microscope?

I think it's a great idea. After all physical tops spiritual any day. I mean you can't see spirit, you can't touch it.

Personality? That's overrated, what century are you from?!



Just because we're Christians doesn't mean we don't have standards for beauty!

God bless

:laugh: I think it's funny how George, "passedoverinchrist" will attack someones opinion then at the end of his message, write "shalom"





where is the peace in that?



I dont really care....just making an observation :)

MsMarvel, you seem to seek a wisdom beyond your years.



This topic is very close to something that has been on my heart very closely for the last 2 weeks, and a move in future direction for me.



In short have you ever heard of the principle of wiifm (Whats In It For Me)? Or basically equity. I was reading something that used a number of categories for measuring somebodies relational worth on a scale of 1 - 10. The categories in this study were:



1 - Physical Attraction, 2 Money, 3 Status and Prestige, 4 Social Graces or Attitude, 5 Inner-Self



What the research showed was that the relationships that were teh happiest, and the highest chance of longivity were the ones where people were similar in physical appearance. However if there were differences in these then they were overwhelming made up for in the other categories.



Yes I appreciate that some may consider this to be worldy, but I am having difficulties, considering why this shouldn't be different in the Body of Christ. From all that I have experienced and witnessed in my Christian walk have shown that the same principles of titfortat apply. You may say the Golden Rule - and rightly so, but this question like most revolves around the question of what it means to be human. For Christians what it means to be Human with Christ in Us.

Also of the categories above if you do nto pass the first test then it can be difficult for the the next two to be given breath, and then finally the last two. So in a very real sense a persons physical appearance is the most important thing for the relationship to ever get off the ground ... (of course much of physical attraction is cultural).

Charms fades on men too, you do know that, right? Money can be gained in a day and lost in a day, what's really important is your walk with the Lord, and only that. Who do you suppose will want to stay with you forever, someone who finds your checkbook attractive or your spirit? People are always more willing to see themselves as great, powerful, beautiful... without realizing that pride is disgusting, and turning to humbleness, and gentleness. Wouldn't you say? I would say based on experience, charms fade on women alot faster, why I dont know (I mean nothing durogitory, just an observation) I would say yes, we often misjudge ourself one side or the other, and therefore I agree that we are to judge ourselves soberly...so far I agree with your last statment. :) I personally dont go for a t it for tat stradegy i look for a woman who is a Christian, one who will love my children, one who is within a tolerable level of attractivness...seems like there was one more...oh yes a woman whose life agrees with mine. For instance I couldn't yoke myself to a woman in the missions field, because that's not where God has placed me :)

i would like to 1000% agree with the bible. and if the bible says it ...

that settles it so i believe it idle words are a thing that gets blurted out aloooot on here tho i know I've seen some good things and thus i add my 2 cents so we all have to guard our words. for they only matter if they are spoken to honor Christ, the same with our deeds.

that is why we are to be the standard barer to a lost and dying world. god bless you all and if i have offended someone in some way i apologize for you were just standing where i was shooting.

God bless you all and may we grow in him more and more unto that perfect day.

tho I'm not the shiniest penny in the bucket

i still agree with the truth in this thought it is said in one most correctly and a lot of men in the woman perspective have failed that test 3 to 4 out of 10 times. and i don't really know why one marries another to change that person its rather goofy but sad at the same time.. tho in part we should strive if we love each other to please each other.

:bow:
