    One tidbit I noticed about Mormons working in sales. They are damn good at selling! They have a good work ethic, push beyond the no's and plus they don't party so they're always on time!

    There used to be some that goes around the neighborhood at UH when I lived nearby. They were polite about it and we actually had a healthy discussion about our respective religions. Eventually they got bored and I just kept on yapping and yapping and I they'd just excuse themselves and leave.

    The ones at UH are annoying, there would be some at the UC and would kinda like almost follow you. Once a couple of them approached me and I just ran away. Felt bad afterwards tho, must've made a little scene.

    Some of my best friends have been Mormons. They never pushed it on people.

    About being a woman: yes, it's better, but that's because... we know how to take care of ourselves. Often we take care of ourselves plus others. We are hotter - because you guys think about sex every 15 seconds and can't help it. We don't have that kind of physical distraction and are able to think a lot more clearly and get a lot more useful things done.

    lol. I was just being facetious. But as long as you asked...

    1.) I'm an 18 to 34 year-old, heterosexual, white male. That's power you can't buy.
    2.) I've always been uncomfortable when someone else (aside from my mom) is taking care of me. I'm always the one serving other people. Besides, it's what Jesus wants me to do. :D
    3.) Easy clothes, no makeup, and no social ostracism for liking women.
    4.) I don't have to deal with the MC
    5.) Girls are hotter
    6) I'm an 18-34 year-old, white, heterosexual male. That's power you can't BUY.

    The downsides?
    1.) People look at me awfully weird when I mention I'm a feminist (just not crazy).
    2.) I gained a bunch of weight recently, and my boobs aren't very attractive. Cue chorus of girls going, "Ewww!" At least I have the Hacker's Diet!
    3.) Limited freedom of expression (what? Any honest man will tell you there are things you don't say or admit to. If you do, you're any number of thing Clutch would prefer I not mention on CF)
    4.) I actually have to go out and get a job and support a family.

    Umm... I call BS. While men are definitely more visual than women, women are JUST as bad as men. At least the ones I know are. And while I'm at it, I think I'll post an excerpt from Maddox's The Alphabet of Manliness:

    Stupid double post. Stupid stupid!

    Hell yes, being a woman is better...unless you're a man who has 'the game' figured out. I think it's been long enough since the Ladder Theory, aka the truth, reared it's head.

    The observant would notice the ridiculous claim in the book excerpt that said Plato discovered wrestling. The extra observant would have dismissed the book as tongue-in-cheek thanks to the fact it's written by Maddox. And the truly observant would notice I edited Isabel's quote when I posted the book excerpt in the first place.

    And the ORIGINAL LADDER THEORY site is here:

    I'm in the north part of San Antonio, around 410 and Blanco.

    But it doesn't really matter...like Dallas, anywhere in SA is the devil's country.

    What's great about mormons is they would never ask this question.

    What?

    What are you asking, rhetorically saying?
    Are you saying you don't know anyorne who is annoying?
    Or are you saying only sebatical religious people on a mission are annoying?

    Do you know what faith is?
    Is that what is annoying to you, because you don't know what "faith" is.
    Are you afraid of that word?

    What?

    Again, the TRULY OBSERVANT would know that I edited ISABEL'S QUOTE when I posted the BOOK EXCERPT in the FIRST PLACE.
    (Hint... Go to the quote. Click on the LINK).
    I'm not re-editing it to preserve the awesome timestamp.

    If somebody is trying to sell their religion to you and you politely tell them that you already have a faith, that should be the end of the conversation.

    If they respond that you are going to hell, I have always found the following to be effective:

    "If that is the attitude that you have, it is not I that has to worry about going to hell."
