QUOTE(ckuehner @ Jul 12 2005, 04:27 PM) I fail to see what that has to do with ugly guys dating hot chicks. I think he got it backwards: moral fibre's when the hot chick keeps going out with the ugly guy even when everyone else says she should leave well alone.

This is an interesting topic. I thought that moral fiber was going to be about what one person considers moralistic. I would say that in that particular case it all depends on the individual. The reason I say that is because each person perceives things differantly. So depending on your environment, culture and how you are raised is what determines what your morals are and how you will react to a moralistic situation.

However, love and crushes are more complicated. People can be pretty silly when it comes to love. Love makes a person think differantly than when they are not in love. In some ways when you are in love you are in a totally differant state of mind. Some of it is chemical. My mom and I think that no one should get married when they fall in love. I thnk that when people fall in love they need to wait a little while to get to know each other. They should at least wait until they start seeing the person for who they really are. As you know most people when they first start seeing someone try to put their best food forward. Over time as they get more comfortable with the other person they relax and allow their hair down. I think that alot of the divorces out just might be preventable if some couples had waited a little bit longer and gotten to know their potential mate a little bit better.

If Moral fibre is the same as integrity, for me itīs to act the same way you think, which is not easy at all in some periods of your life. Because the moral is not an universal concept, each society and each person has his own ethical rules.

But Iīve never heard of the term "moral fibre" anyway

Yea, I'd have to agree with you there. I had never thought of morals as they relate to 'ugly guys dating hot chicks' as it's been said. Morals (I thought at least) was having a set of beliefs, and sticking with them. Backing up whatever you think is right, and maintaining a sort of standard.

I suppose that morals apply to everything, including dating. Because for me, treating someone right (regardless of their returned affections) just seems like the right thing to do. And if I was to stand beside the person I'd chosen, I could only morally do so, if I also stood for whatever they stood for.

Sure, people can stand for all sorts of different things, and I wouldn't be oppossed to many of them, but because of my personal morals that I have, no matter who the person is, I couldn't put my support into certain things.

I don't know, this is sort of becoming a ramble, which is what I tend to do, but hopefully it's making some sort of sence. That's my aim here.

Sometimes doing the right thing isn't necessarily doing the right thing. Does that make sense? Doing something right for the wrong reason is never ok. You can do all the good deeds you like, but it doesn't mean a thing if you're doing it for yourself and already planning on what you'll get in return. If you're doing something purely for that other person because you want to help them or because you care about them - then that's genuine.

Morals are a very sticky subject. Obviously doing something right to impress someone else when you could careless about what really happens is not really a good reason to do the right thing. Its not always wrong either. Sometimes when you do something right for the wrong reasons you learn something from it and maybe the next time you will do the right thing for the wrong reasons.

Also what one culture may consider morally wrong, another culture may consider morally right. That is why I say morals are such a sticky subject. It also depends on how or where you grew up. Sometimes morals are differant with differant families. You find this all the time in today's society.

That is just a few thoughts that crossed my mind about what you all said.
