people took issue with your judgmental and close minded attitude, not because you don't wear shoes. this discussion occurred with fellow "barefooters" and "hippies" alike. seems like the same thing is happening here. why are you calling them "young boys?" you are so far off-base, man.
Wow, get over it and stop being so narrow minded and prejudiced. From what I have read this guy has complained about young people who were gay, so I don't think age is really the issue. Also, it isn't so much about being barefoot, but you way you go about it. I have posted in the barefoot forum and have never been criticised or anything. If you don't like something, fine then leave it alone! No room for that here on Hipforums I'm afraid. On a good note.... Go Shale!! Woooo arty:
Yes, 99% of your school would say ewe and they probably would want to puke, 99% of your school probably looks exactly like 99% of the world as well. They probably look to their peers before they process things in their own minds and determine their own opinons. The point is, shale is fucking and sucking ( I might add ) men who have come of age to process their own opinons. The man he does sleep with have enough life experience and time spent on this earth to have explored their fantasies and come to a conclusion about what it is they want in a sexual partner. Shale normally isn't even the approacher, they come to him (he's that sexy, watch out world). The way I see it you can perceive this as something sick and abnormal. Or you can see it for what it really is. Two people who define indifference to societies 'norms' and listen to their minds, hearts and bodies and act on that. There actions are either perverse or beautiful. Just like walking barefoot is some sort of delusional fetish, or being closer to the earth and one with nature. Think before you judge my friend. Have an open mind and dive deep into your consciousness. This site is for those of us who let things linger on and explore the truths, what is normal, what is natural for us as individuals not as groups defined between the glossy covers of magazines. This Bizarro world, is the real world. The way it should be. And you've turned my attempt at a Shale fan group into some sort of debate. It is what it is. Maybe you will never learn to appreciate what makes us different, what makes us each individuals, and our own person. But atleast respect it, and keep your negativity and bad energy on your own turf.
Well shale, I'm not here to join your "Fan Club" as you called it, nor do i find you fascinating, i find you as just another member of our more open minded generation that as many of us did traveled many roads, however I do find you interesting and honest, be well and live long.. Peace
C'mon, Silver.... you can't say nice things about Shale without being in the club. You know you wanna be in. You know you do. BTW, Wild-Flowers started and named the thread. Shale isn't tooting his own horn... uh, so to speak.
It's against the rules to actually start a thread with a person's name in it. Reading this thread, definitely tells me why the rule exists. PAX
Thanx Trig for bringing in some facts about "creepy." I have referenced Catherine Zeta-Jones, (still a foxy lady) and her main squeeze Michael Douglas in a published article on "Aging and Attraction to Youth." BTW, Michael is my age. So, the consensus with the two-decade old crowd is that you don't fall in love with someone 20 years older or younger. Glad to know the rules of propriety, but where the hell did they come from? I'm as old as Zeus and I know he didn't declare it. Anyhow, I'm lucky because I was only 19 years YOUNGER than Margaret when we had our fling in '68. Not that I am going to abide by someone else's arbitrary declaration of propriety. It just wouldn't be Hippie of me. Lots of ppl thought it improper for me and Brenda to become lovers because she was black and I was white. We didn't listen to them. I have a habit of following my heart and fuck the mainstream propriety. What ever happened to that old Free-Luv concept that allowed us to have sex out of marriage and sex with different races or sex with our same gender or even sex with older or younger ppl than was proscribed by the mainstream culture. Jaime, instead of beating drums in a Hippie boutique, I think you need to read up on the whole Hippie concept of free spirit and quit pushing your own prejudices as some kind of acceptable propriety. That is exactly what we were about 50 years ago, dumping all that bullshit.
Actually my school has a larger than average hippie population, most of them are my friends and they would all saw EWWW to a 65 year old man and a young boy (20's). I still refuse to belive that when most of you get older, you would want your 20-something son getting a BJ from a 65 year old man. If so, I feel sorry. What ever happened to common decency?
I will let this thread alone now and let all of you cut me down if you wish and you can all be proud of Shale and sing his praises. I just hope that those who cut me down end up having their future sons bring some 65 year old man home to the dinner table or tell you how they had sex the night before. That is really something to be proud of.
When you have to explain that to people, there is a serious problem. Why do you assume that any of us care what your friends think? Why do you assume that Shale is a father or a grandfather? Why do you assume anything at all? Then why are you posting here? To "fix" our incorrect views? If you don't like it, you don't have to stick around. This is a large, long-established web site. It isn't going to change to please one new guy. Hip people have been working hard for >40 years to purge it from the earth. We're getting there, little by little. Stop trying to make this thread all about you!
Sorry, I know Shale wants to return to the subject at hand, but barefootjaime's comment was too offensive for me to pass up. If you've followed his posts, he makes himself out to be a cool, free-spirited, barefoot hippie living the life of a college student. barefootjaime's post was pointed out to me by another member. As an open-minded, totally heterosexual male, I found barefootjaime's comments homophobic, facist, dangerous, what other adjective would you like? At 18 a person becomes an adult. That means they have the right to make whatever choices they choose, - whether they're good, bad, or neutral. If the 20-something chose to have a gay or bisexual relationship, that's completely within his rights, and it's within Shale's rights to respond. As far as the age difference, how many older guys have 20-something babes on their shoulders? Similarly, have many "cougars" are searching for the hot male body to service them? Jaime, you make yourself out to be a cool, barefoot, hippie living a carefree life. Sorry dude, but you need an attitude adjustment. You're not cool, you've got issues. Drop the college scene, get out in the real world and discover what it's like to be open, accepting, and willing to compromise.
:iagree: Shale is a grown man as is his lover - age difference - yes - but far, far away from being a pedifile. If two adults want to be sexually involved - more power to them. Now - Where do I get my Shale Fan Club membership card? What perks go along with it?
