I think there was a discussion about it, the relationship with Juliette, and some said it was legal in California and some states but not in other states and that's why he was not put to jail or charged, in fact it didn't cause any stir. But i agree it's icky. But goodness the divorce procedure in your country is hectic, really hectic. I heard that the couple must prove they are seperated for a year at least before getting divorce, is that true?

Ok, to be fair here, most of us on this board are schizophrenic then.

(We misunderstand each other all the time)

In the south, it's illegal. Plus, most of our daddy's would've killed Brad Pitt.
Yes, divorce is hectic here. I think the plan was that it would keep you in a marriage, but the actual result is that fewer people want to get married... I think you can get around the whole "separation" thing. How do you prove you weren't with someone? Someone else can lie for you and say you weren't there - lie me an alibi type of deal.

I called you schizophrenic because you misinterpreted my post (who's directed at another type of posters) and replied to me based on your assumption, on more than one occassion.

I'm very sorry that you find that so offensive. So much so, that you feel the need to put it in bold. Sounds like your pretty angry THERE, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

I find your posts regarding the whole thing AMUSING. I guess where you are from, men are the epitome of right and good and are never questioned. After reading your posts on other topics, I read what you wrote. Although I don't agree, I can understand that it's a cultural difference and not personal.

What? He was 25 and she was 16? Man, that's just plain sick. I knew a few guys who were that age and they went for high school girls. We called them perverts. Hell, maybe he and Angie are suited to one another after all. Julia has always been such a strange bird. The whole $cientology explains her craziness though.

We don't just call them perverts, we put them in jail for rape. Actually, Brad should be sitting in some jail cell, serving time. What a sick-o! Just like all of the other celebs (coughcoughjerryseinfeldcoughcough) they are above the law AND reproach.

I actually was not offended or angry at you. That's why i added the smiley

Yes it's cultural difference but not limited down to it. However, no we don't consider men the epitome of right and good, BUT we do value family and tradition ALOT. So if this case was reversed, we would have sided with the woman.

Ok, so TECHNICALLY, if Jennifer had wanted a baby, and Brad did not....then Jennifer would have been the one whom everyone sided with? What if she slept with someone while they were still married, and had the other man's baby. Would it be O.K. because she is having a family and procreating?

Yup she was 16, and the funny thing they remained a couple for 3 years and no nobody charged him even though he was unknown and nothing yet. The irony is that his family didn't mind it, which is shocking since they are conservative and religious and i won't start with her father. Juliette was born into Scientology though.

For your first question, yes.

Your second question, if she was married as in living together (not seperated or filed for divorce scenario) then no of course not. There is a reason why divorce exist and she could have used it. But in the case like your country where divorce takes between 6-10 months, then obviously we won't expect her to remainfaithful to someone she is seeking to seperate from. However, i have to add that in my country marriage is the only acceptable union, no boyfriend/girlfriend or living-partner scenario.

If Brad married her knowing she wanted kids and then strung her along for 7 years? Of course. I'd be even more vehemently *on her side* than Brad's when it came to this issue, since women are the ones who actually have to carry and give birth, thus the shorter window of time. All a man has to do (if he wants) is donate the sperm anyway, he can be 70 years old. So 7 years wasted is worse for a woman who wants kids than it is for a man.

equallydivided · June 13th, 2006, 02:25 PM

I had both of my children at a young age. It's not like Brad's going to quit being potent for a while.

Some ways, I can see where it's beneficial to have your kids young. On the other hand, I have many days where I wish that I had actually had a career, fun, freedom and just being ME....BEFORE I started raising a family.

It wasn't like Jawnifer is past the sell-by date.

lol, but what the odds of a 70-years old man living to see and raise his child?

In all fairness, she's getting close.

I guess the grass is always greener. There are times if I wonder what it would be like if I'd done like my friends and started young. Most of theirs are teenagers now. But in a few years they'll probably be out of the house and my friends will be young enough to enjoy themselves without having to worry about busting ass to make sure that they are exceptionally healthy and *young* for their age. Not to mention, a younger parent probably has a lot more energy to deal with teenage bullshit than an old fart. Oh, another plus I know of for a fact....not just from observation of my friends who had kids when younger but people I know who had one/some young and then again after several years....you bounce back physically after pregnancy and childbirth a whole lot quicker in youth. Not to mention it being easier to even get pregnant in the first place.

I agree with all of that. At the same time, I've really noticed that people who become parents later in life are far more patient with their kids (not ALL, but most). I see a big difference in what older parents consider important, as well. Not that my kids will be entirely screwed up, but I try to balance it out. I sometimes wish I had had the time to enjoy MY youth and vitality.

At the same time, I can run with them all day without stopping. I seriously doubt I would be able to do it as easily in 10 more years....
