BS: Jude Law Cheats On Sienna Miller

not that i or we should be particularly interested, but i think he is an idiot
Sienna is a good looking girl with a nice personality, and i hope she doesnt take him back.

hopefully this will make Jude lose a lot of fans too and make it harder for him to find work, as he doesnt deserve it

Who's Sienna Miller? Not having a television, my knowledge of pop culture is limited to weekly exposure to tabloid headlines while waiting in the grocery line. I don't recall seeing her name anywhere on them. But I haven't been grocery shopping this week.

Infidelity is still an interesting thread topic.

Before I was married I did not consider "infidelity" a crime or great indescretion, unless I got caught. Getting lucky while single was a seperate catagory from: cheating, going out for hamburger or any of the other hundreds of metaphors for "double dipping".
Since our wedding day however I have been 100% faithful which is probably a rare thing compared to society at large.

The virtues of monogamy are a hard lesson to learn, for some. I prefer it, because it means something to me to keep an agreement about how things are going to be. Some guys think that "anything goes", "whatever is, is right" and "that was then, this is now" are the boundaries of integrity; but they are mistaken. If you cannot create an agreement and then keep it, you have an integrity problem which will cast shadows on all other parts of your life, no matter how you rationalize it. Hard-earned wisdom! :)

For a female perspective on this - women are turned on by monogamous men. Monogamous men are able to satisfy their partner and this leads to a lifetime of wonderfully fulfilling intimacy.

A man who has to run around dipping his wick wherever, is usually a pretty shallow excuse for a man, he isnt able to commit 100% because he knows he is lacking in one department or another, and needs to get reassurance from equally shallow women who also need reassurance for their inadequacies, if he thinks scoring with the local bike is manly, he is not only wrong, but laughable.

Monogamy is sexy.

NO primate is monogamous... Most human males who are, are only monogamous because if they're not, they'll lose access what little sex (Other than solo) they get...

"women are turned on by monogamous men"
Women are just as biologically drive to sleep around as men are... if anything it looks like they're worse.

In my eyes one of the ways that you can measure a man is that he understands commitment and knows how to keep his word. But they don't make the news - the dogs get all the publicity. If you hear the tired old excuse that "all the men do it" it's because someone has to make an apology for their lack of moral fiber and upbringing. Most real men understand. But some don't.

I was at a political meeting last night where a pastor gave his views on what it should mean when someone says that s/he is christian. He said that just like wearing a wedding band is saying that you are committed with integrity to a person/relationship/belief, it should mean that the listener can expect a certain course of thought and action from you. He said there should be no other reason for it. I'm not very religious by nature so I was a little leery of what the man might say- but I liked it.

Clinton's remarks remind me of what a plumber once said to my friend and me that "everyone" has herpes. My friend and I agreed later that all his remark proved is that the plumber had herpes. *G*

Ebbie - Yup. That sounds about right. I'll tell you something though...it is a greater thing to love ALL people than it is go give incredibly special love to one. (but that is very rare)

Our obsession with incredibly special love for one person only is a separation game the ego plays that royally screws up most people's lives and makes them obsessive romantic love junkies who are unhappy and unfulfilled most of the time. (read "A Course in Miracles" and associated literature for the lowdown on that...or listen to Marianne Williamson's 4-CD set on romantic love relationships.

Most plumbwers have herpes for a coupla basic reasons.

1. Too much time spent in damp places.

2. Stickin' it in the pipe. Copper pipes contain toxic susbstances, eh? It's not smart to go doin' stuff like that, but plumbers have got to spend a lotta time alone cos their job sucks and they don't have nice clothes and they're just basically not that cool, eh? So the girls ain't inter4ested accept for the odd skank who will flip anything on a dare.

You have no idea, Marjorie. ;-) If all Shane's frustration and unrealized libido were materialized in one location, it would rival the Rockefeller Center for sheer mass. I've been to Blind River. I've even seen the "Iron Horse Bar & Grill" where Shane likes to hang out and harass the waitresses. You have to go there to fully appreciate it, believe me...but why would anyone?

Our beloved and late friend Rick Fielding actually played Blind River once or twice and lived to tell the tale! That takes grit when you're a folksinger. Clinton Hammond has never played Blind River, because he just doesn't have quite that much grit.

(Either that or he's just smart...) ;-)

Poor Shane is wasting away, madly in love with an attractive female police officer, "Officer Dana". He also yearns for Shania Twain. I'm not sure which objective is more unrealistic.

This article by an Australian writer says it all on Jude Law...

"Male feminists", like their unenlightened brothers, are still after
only one thing, writes Kathy Lette.

Jude Law is the sort of man who treats women as sequels, not equals.
After seven years or so of marriage, couples can get itchy and some of them scratch. But to cheat during his engagement, while professing to be so profoundly and passionately in love, shows the emotional depth of a mud puddle. While publicly planning his marriage to Sienna Miller, Law was privately acting like a man who was footloose and fiancee-free. The sexually incontinent thespian has proven himself to be the kind of bloke who goes straight from puberty to adultery. Obviously his idea of fidelity is to have only one woman in bed at a time.

The worst of it is that Law has cultivated the image of being a
Sensitive, Caring and Sharing Knight in Shining Armani. Well groomed,
designer-clad,emotionally articulate, partial to doing Sensitive Things with Snow Peas - we presumed that Law was in touch with his feminine side. We just hadn't realised that it was on another female. The man is a wolf in sheep's clothing. (It helps to remember that the Oxford English Dictionary excised the expression "New Man" from its tome, having realised that no such creature really exists. It would seem that men only call themselves "male feminists" in the hope of getting a more intelligent bonk.)

And it is his Victorian attitude to women which is most damning. Law's
justification for his sexual kleptomania is that Miller was neglecting
him by being more interested in her own stellar career. Law is obviously the kind of man who would prefer his wife's talents to lie doormat for years. Despite Miller's skimpy outfits, a psychological bustle and crinoline is what he wants to truss her up in. When London won its Olympic bid, as my English friends are not all that sporty (the only thing they run up are bills), I hoped they might introduce some activities at which they excel as a nation. Quipping. Whipping. Queuing. And stiff-upper-lipping.

Famously stoic, the English are renowned for their sense of fair play. If such an Olympic category existed, they'd win gold. As long as they're not represented by Jude Law. When a tabloid revealed his
affair with the family nanny, instead of taking it on the chin, he
tried to blame Miller for "not showing him enough devotion". This makes one suspect that his marriage to Sadie Frost broke up for religious reasons - he thought he was a God and, well, she just didn't. Law's self-centred outbursts confirm the man is totally wrapped up in himself. And it's such a teeny, weeny package. We must just hope that Miller's PMT (pre-monogamy tension) prevents her from succumbing to the delusion that she can change Jude Law's cheatin' ways.

The only time a woman can ever change a male like him is out of a
nappy, as a baby.

The Telegraph, London

From: Little Hawk

Hmmm. Freda, consider this. People reincarnate as male and female, at various times but in no particular sequence. One is as easy as the other. It's like changing the shirt you wear, from the point of view of the soul. Accordingly, one's status as either a male OR a female in THIS life is a very temporary matter, in my opinion. Ultimately the human soul is beyond gender, but when it's encased in a biological human body it has to select one or the other for the time being.

So...do all the virtuous women suddenly lose their steadfast qualities and become heartless sexual predators when they reincarnate as males? That would indeed be ironical. ;-) And one would wonder why it would be that way. How many feminists were men the last time around??? More than a few, I'd bet. They're mad at themselves.

I have (so far) personally never cheated on an existing relationship that I was having with a partner, and I'm male. I know other males who have never cheated on their partner too. I know females who have. Plenty. I also know that males are more likely to take advantage of momentary opportunities, but there is absolutely no sense in these diatribes that try to pit one gender against the other. It's foolish and doesn't help anyone.

Jude Law's activities are in no way a comment on the entire male gender. All people instinctively search for love, in the way they best know how. Society encourages males to "play the field", and people tend to be shaped by the expectations a culture lays upon them.

Back to LH & Amos' comments, I believe the soul is without human attributes, and takes on a genetic pattern with each incarnation, like "clothes". This pattern determines our personality attributes and potential, for the lifetime. So yes, Little Hawk, my karma may eventually run down my dogma. That will teach me!

With gender, like everything it is genetically determined. I saw this documentary earlier in the week - The Gender Puzzle.

It is about people whose chromosomes don't match the standard. Women with internal testes, Men who can't process testoosterone, and so are like women. Scientists are studying them as a way of discovering the genes that determine everybody's gender. It was fascinating, and interviewed people with Androgen Insensivity Syndrome amongst others.

Well said, freda. Biological life is quite a trip for the soul, requiring adhering to some pretty confining roles. It can be fun, but not nearly as much fun as being in the astral, I suspect, depending on one's state of mind at the time...

Hey, Amos, I remember being a woman in one life. No problem, I assure you. I died young in that one, though, so I didn't really have much chance to explore the role in its full depth that time. Didn't marry or have children or that sort of thing.

Most of the other circumstances I recall (a few) involved male lives.

I think that the soul who is free and clear might well glide effortlessly from gender unto gender. But the ones I have dealt with, and they are many, all retain a lot of gender-based notions crossing the Lifetime Divide. The lifetimes easily remembered are one thing. The ones painted all black and buried in ignominy are the ones you want to shake out. 'COurse that's just one opinion. :D

Sorry to laugh at clever remarks made at the expense of others--the overall article was standing in judgement of a large segment of the human race by picking on one particular, very public example to generalize from. Bashing any group bashes us all.

well, that was not my intent - but i can see its had that effect. Again, sorry guys. I have a lot to learn. Her book Foetal Attraction was a very funny, satirical view on childbirth. But i would never give it to any new mother or mother to be, it's only for someone who will never have to go through it again.

Ah well, Freda. If only she could have picked on Law as an individual. She is a good writer, but a very astute person pointed out to me that Legge was using Law to make some sweeping judgements about men in general. I regretted appreciating her wit when it was ultimately used in disservice to humanity.

Absolutely; she has a razor tongue of the best sort. "Treats women as sequels, not equals" is classic stuff; "emotional depth of a mudpuddle" and "knight is shining Armani" are gems. PErsonally I don't see anything wrong with wanting a more intelligent bonk, but then neither do the more intelligent bonks. But as Peter points out she is in an over-the-top, take-no-prisoners frame of mind.

Considering that Jude and Sienna aren't married, who cares? Maybe they should have thought about all that before they made a baby.

No, and I didn't mean that either. I meant that they both should have given their relationship serious thought a long time ago, especially if there was any question about their level of commitment to one another.

Of course you should care. Jude Law is a god celebrity, and like all god celebrities his every move is important, his every foible critical to the sustaining of life. Attention is a form of worship: to look at is to look up. Your uninteresting life is nurtured by the gods. That he has failings is not important -- even Zeus played around -- what is important is that you are aware that his life is more important than yours, that is all that is required.

Foolish unknown mortal.

Peter T.

Canada is a pathetic country that spends all its time obsessing about American stars, and it has this pathetic glow when someone as ridiculous as William Shatner is famous ("They love us, they really love us.).

That is why. We imbibe it with the drinking water (which you will buy from us shortly).

Amos, when we have neighbours like you and so, so many others here, it sure is hard to think about animosity between the people of our countries. But ain't that usually the way, huh? I don't recall anytime in history when the PEOPLE started a war. Maybe we just need fewer leaders who want to do their best for five years and then bugger off to what they were doing before they became the leader. Overly simplistic, I know. But damn near anything's gotta be better than this.

I just set my iTunes to play your 1980 recordings over and over, Peace, from "Jericho" to "'Tis of Thee" and back. I intend to cover them all before I die!! :D

I'm with you on the corruption inherent in some kinds of leadership. I have known a few leaders who were exemplary and self-effacing, good leaders who care about the goals and members of their groups.

But by far, they were way on one end of the bell curve.

People like Jude Law just remind me that we need mandatory study in grade school that covers morality, ethics, leadership, followship, fellowship and the brotherhood of man.

I wouldn't give a high school diploma to anyone who couldn't write an essay on each topic without any references, 2,000 words minimum.

When moral codes elevate riches and conquest as primary virtues, the native insight which makes ethics possible gets trampled. Add television and Earth becomes a hell.

That's what we use it for, PT!! :D All over the country, every night, there are men and women transferring Budweiser to sub-water status, pouring it into the oceans through pipelines from all over the country. It is amazing, especially since it is volunteer-driven. Many volunteers even pay to participate, and often expose themselves in dangerous places just to continue delivering the Bud. We have one of the richest sub-water volunteer forces in the world, and we're proud of it.
