I agree, it may be difficult but keep looking, they're still out there, you just have to look and be patient about it :)

I am sorry it was never my intention to compare your wife to a hellish snowball. Patience is easier said than done these days.

I'm sorry Logos! I gave off the wrong impression, I didn't take any offense from your post, I was just sort of joking about it. I'm sorry that it came off wrong... and I can understand the worry you express... it wasn't too long ago that I had similar worries.

Agreed, it is rare, but needed!

See, to me, the thing that make s a woman attractive is modesty and piety. I would be far more attracted to a woman dresses like the one on that site that goes to church regularly than a woman in a revealing outfit dancing on the beach.

Me too Nicholas, but unfortunately a modest and pious woman nowadays is an endangered species.

Doth Quoth the Canon, Nevermore!

CANON XIXX of the 21 CANONS:

If for the sake of supposedly ascetic exercise any woman change apparel, and instead of the usualy and customary women's apparel, she dons men's apparel, let her be anathema.

With better catechesis, all will do as they should, often they simply do not know these traditions.
