Beautiful Women and Dorks

  Looking back at a few Bethel threads and getting calls from many FORMER friends last week about the assembly season, I reflected back on some of the assemblies of the past, particularly in the 80's and 90's.

  Do you remember beautiful sisters that just had the criteria of having a spiritual man. They would get a dorky pioneer / elder / MS and walk together at the assembly. Everyone would wonder, "How the hel did that happen". A few weeks later, they would come to our hall and dorko would give a spell-binding talk.

  Do you know any of these individuals? Did they stay married?

  That was always the coolest part of the assembly, seeing the women (10-1 in the org.) CHASE the men (title / position). Looks and career did not matter, position in the org. did.

  Dorks with beautiful women is a wonderful time-honored tradition, not at all exclusive to JWs.

  I for one, am all for it.

  Don't knock it till you try it!

  I see the same thing with other people, not just JW's. I see guys with women and wonder how a dorky guy could ever snag that beautiful a women. I guess you've heard that song "some guys have all the luck"

  Yes, it is a good thing, but entertaining nonetheless.

  She will have the fake smile and the "They are not looking at me are they". "Don't they know that he went to Bethel?"

  When in the org., it may be cool. In the real world, someone who is a professional tallk giver may be a negative. Not having the looks, makes it even harder.

  Just wonder if some of the women changed their minds.

  Guys, guys. You don't get it. Dorks improve with age, 'hunks' don't.

  They actually did a study on this here in oz last year. That was their conclusion. Look at the guys you knew in high school that were attractive, had all the girls. Now look at them. Chances are you wouldn't think they were the same person. Even Alec Baldwin got fat & ugly.

  Dorks on the other hand do improve with age. They also have to try harder to 'win' the girl. Not to mention they are much, much better at ....

  When we attend Fire School in a small college town in Texas, many guys said, "I am going to go ugly early" This would guarantee a good time early and free up the rest of the night.

  Ok, I get it.................

  Beautiful women and dorky guys doesn't bother me. As long as the guy has something going for him; smart, caring, fun, money. The pathetic thing is "spirtiual gold-diggers". Girls who are only looking for a man based on his Watchtower resume and congregation title with little regard for anything else, just marrying a guy to be Mrs. Elder's Wife or Mrs. Pioneer Couple. In the WTS a woman means nothing more than the man she marries.

  OH YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  I can think of one very abusive MS right now who married a sister who is one of the sweetest people on earth. Every brother was "after" her. And she settled for this moron. No one understood why. She had a son - was never married - and he was divorced and had 3 kids. Then they had I believe 4 kids after that. Now the kids would all be adults. Messed up I heard......any wonder?

  And she's still married to the idiot. And he's still an abusive ***hole.

  Just got my BP up.....
