im not offended in any way by your referencing research, just found the intent behind it being used here left me wanting to comment my thoughts.

 i am though, still baffled as to why you chose to resist heeding the complaints, i mean their hasnt been a single reply yet to the actual topic at hand, you cant tell me with all that time you put into writing that original post, you cant spare alittle more and condense it down to a summarized version that still gets your point across, or atleast interests us enough to want to read the full version

I am sorry AJ....using an example that is old fashion sexist behavior is just insulting and your not saying sorry for using it is just rude and the whole topic shouldn't be included in a forum on a fanasty strategy game...you are totally wrong on this one but my guess is rikoo enjoys torturing us with your rambling logic...watches the target created on her back

My wife made it clear that part of the process of getting married was asking her father for his "permission".  It was, perhaps, a foregone conclusion what the answer would be but for her and her father and I it was a nice tradition, considered politeness on my behalf and a part of our bond.

So, Twi and Rill, have a quick thought before you start labeling something so negatively based on your own jaded viewpoint.

Its just a game..
If someone just wrote an igm to me with just a bunch of curses, I'd probably respond with a lol. That's probably not for everyone though...

P.S I didn't really read anything you wrote except for the name of the topic; is that considered rude?

killer did you ask her mother too or because she was a female didn't she count...its 2015...we don't twist the hens heads off any more...sexism is sexism no matter if its tradition or not and no matter if its past present or future and this whole forum topic is a joke because it has nothing to do with the game

What I find "Rude" is AJQTRZ's apparent decision some time back that the entire game and forum audience needed educating in manners or morals and that he was the one to do it.
We aren't in your University now AJ and you aren't in a lecture hall. If I wanted to read lectures on group dynamics or morals I wouldn't come to an in-game forum to find them.
The assumption that because we don't necessarily agree with your every 'pearl of wisdom' just means we don't agree, not that we have less manners or less morals - we are not lesser people because we don't choose to engage in endless boring debates about it. Every post you make is designed to route the conversation into you trying to claim some sort of moral or intellectual superiority over the rest of us. Please don't be so presumptuous, it's ill mannered of you and extremely tedious.

Now this was short and to the point. Now do you get the idea AJ?

Personally, I think the whole problem here is that the guy in the video consistently says "why you have to be so roux"... I don't know why anyone would give permission when the potential son in law would call him a French sauce...

Tradition is tradition... same as the father walking the bride down the aisle....The preacher asks "who gives the woman to be married" ....

If you think that is sexist, just don't do choose to partake in that time honored tradition. Don't be a feminazi... gotta love it
