I'm a stay saved...

Thanks to everyone for responding to my blog concerning women who diss gentleman. Now my next concern is quite simple, yet complex. Is it okay for Christians to use the word "s*xy" when complimenting someone? Now don't get me wrong different people have different standards in their salvation or respective faith and some Christians are more strict than others for lack of a better word. I have my standards. I feel it's okay because it's just a way to express how a young lady looks, but it's not like I'm disrespecting her. I want to know different opinions.

i think it's perfectly fine to refer to someone as s*xy, lust is something God has given us, to me it doesn't become "wrong" until you act on it. Just because you think someone is s*xy it doesn't mean your going to go screw them it just means that they are attractive to you. To me saying something is s*xy just means that I like it, not that I want to screw it. Like say for instance I saw some shoes I liked, I would say they're s*xy, By no means am I going to start a s*xual relationship with them, I just like the way they look

I don't think there's anything wrong with saying you think someone is s*xy. Saying a person is s*x doesn't mean that you want to have s*x with them. It just means that find them highly attractive. Of course, the tone you use when you tell a female she's s*xy makes a difference. If you lick your lips and stare at her like your undressing her with your eyes and then call her s*xy, she might become a little offended, or at least uncomfortable. A word is just a word, but the actions and behavior that the speaker uses changes the meaning of the word.

Personally I feel like saying someone is s*xy is okay. It is just a descriptive word being used. Although tone and manner play an important role in how the word will be received by an individual.

I know that God is real. He knows that we know how we should act. I do not see how you can call yourself a gentleman and call a girl s*xy. That word is used in two situations: If you are with somebody and it is exclusive or if your are trying to pick up a female. It is definately never used casually as a compliment in my opinion. Look at the word: s*xy. The word s*x is in there. It is time for "gentlemen" to act like REAL CHRISTIAN MEN and not just putting on that front because they don't know how else to get women besides trying to act all innocent and sweet. When you look at a female, do you think glance at places you shouldn't? I'll answer that for you: Yeah you do! A gentleman wouldn't do that because those thoughts and those words are not in his head. Bro, you look fresh to def in that suit, but be yourself under it. What do us youngbloods know about that true gentlemen stuff, eh? We grew up with television giving us an unfortunate view and perspective about women. We as men need to take a HUGE step back and try to evaluate our lives and our day to day conduct. ---- Bryan Smith : FOR GOD, FOR CENTRAL, FOR STATE
