I don't respect people before they earn it either. There is something between respect and disrespect
Tangy! I'm quoting a post of yours lol
I don't know where this will put me, but...........
Respect.
We SHOULD have respect for women.
Until they prove themselves disrespectful.
I hold doors open for women (sometimes men too, depends).
But then, admittedly I oogle them while I do it. Unless they are ugly......... but I still hold the door.
I respect teachers, until they act disrespectful or stupid.
Same with most any stranger I meet. They get "general" respect, as a human being on the same planet.
UNTIL, they act irresponsible, stupidly, or somehow cause an interference with my freedom and lifeways...... then they get NO respect.
They could get more than that.
Like total condemnation and banishment from my world......... as much as possible.
However, a wise man once told me........... "Preachers and junkies a man don't need for friends"
I think that's pretty good advise.
