Wearing A Cross

[live4thebj]

Do you find hooking with woman that wear a cross as a challenge, turn-on, not an issue, or whatever? No judgment.

Huge turn-on for me. Probably has a lot to do with my background

I have fucked my fair share of moms that went to Catholic school. Let me tell you in the eyes of that religion they are sinners. I like sinners.

I know I’m not the intended audience for this question but as a woman that wears a cross I find this interesting. Now I’m wondering if any guys get turned on when they notice me wearing it.

I don’t get turned on but question if we would be sexual compatible and also me being an atheist would be an issue. One person it was an issue which I told her on day one I am one and a month later it was an issue with her. There were a few things I didn’t like and lucky for me she beat me to it in terms of breaking up.

I’m something of a paradox. If that’s the right word. I’m very much a Christian and firm believer but also very sexually promiscuous. I struggle with that conflict a bit but my physical needs always win. I have no issue with atheists in general and I never proselytize. I have found some atheists can be kinda mean to Christians though.

A cross hanging at that perfect height in a woman’s cleavage is a big turn-on for me. Also, though I have not attended in years, I definitely enjoy how some women dress for church: conservative with a hint of slut.

I can't speak for the men but I can relate my experiences. I do wear a cross sometimes but not like every day. I have found, through conversation, stares or other actions, that for some men it's a turn on, for a few it's a turn off, for a very few a deterrent from hitting on me, but for the majority it makes no difference. I will say that it pales in comparison to wearing a wedding ring. It seems a wedding ring has become like a magnet to men with many pursuing women that wear a wedding ring. Some view it as a challenge, for many it's a big turn on and for others it's fulfilling their bucket list and for others it's just a fantasy that for one reason or another they can't act on it but wish they could.

Id rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints...

The only thing I enjoyed when forced to go to church. Christmas mass was always the best.

At this point in time, I don't see crosses or any other religious jewelry as anything other than a pleasing decoration meant to draw attention to a certain physical feature such as a cross that hangs just above the breast, an anklet, rings or really anything else. If it has a meaning to the person wearing it, so be it. It could be an interesting point of conversation if that is where you want to go, but otherwise I see it as a pretty decoration.

Nothing more.... YMMV

Turn-on.

I hate to generalize but under the current political climate, it's almost mandatory for Christians (I refer to most of them as CHRINOs - Christians In Name Only) to be "mean" to anyone who doesn't subscribe to their beliefs.

I also believe that many of them wear crosses more as a fashion statement than as a sincere sign of their faith. CHRINOs

You and Billy Joel, and most of us here on Lit.

I don't know who you are hanging out with but I've never seen that IRL.

I understand but I’m definitely not one to do that. I truly wish everyone could get along and love each other regardless of beliefs. I know that it’s naive and silly to think that could ever happen but I still hope.

What haven't you seen? Mean Christians or Fashion Crosses?

What does one have to do with the other?

Catholic girls have been a real thrill, but it isn't about whether they wear a cross or not.

I say "girls" because it's been many years since I was with one. Today I wouldn't go for a Catholic "girl," I'd go for one I could call a grown-ass woman though. Basically over 30

Maybe nothing? they were just asking you to clarify which one you were talking about.

I must take exception to this good sir. I’m 28 and still consider my self a grown-ass woman.

Can I speak for myself (which is exactly what I did) or do I have to get "corrected?"

You're too young for me. It's a matter of taste. I bet you have all kinds of tastes I don't share. I wouldn't take exception to any of them. You do you.

I was just trying to be silly. Sorry.

There are lots of people in all faiths who don't really have true belief in what their faith proclaims. There are many who just pose for various reasons including family, culture, societal positions or just habit.

There are also many who compartmentalize parts of their religion. Much like political affiliations, they agree with some parts but not necessarily all parts. As a very horny Christian, this resonates with me personally.

And there are some who simply use their faith as an excuse or even a weapon to hurt others and/or to justify their own bad behaviors. They generally are the minority of that faith but they gather the most attention. Suicide bombers. Televangelists. Hateful bigoted, racists, transphobic, pedofile politicians. We've all seen it.

But as for the original question, I never see such jewelry and think anything specific about it. But I've also grown up deeply in the church and know there are a ton of very horny and repressed and secretly active people all through there. It's fun to do stuff with them no matter what jewelry they wear. It's fun to do it in church or at church camp or during the sermon. There is an extra rush from that, so maybe one could also get that from a cross necklace too.

My bad. I should have broken the quote up a bit more. I was replying to the generalization of Christians. I'm sure there are people who are like what was being generalized. I don't see a lot of it mostly because I don't hang out in circles where that is a prevalent attitude. Your faith is your faith and how you practice it is your business and by the same token it may not be how I practice my faith. Neither of which is right or wrong in my view. As I stated before, it can be an interesting point of conversation if approached with an open mind. But like anything else if the conversation comes to impasse one would hope that both parties can agree to disagree and move on.

C'est la vie.

Regarding jewelry, I'll restate what I said before;

At this point in time, I don't see crosses or any other religious jewelry as anything other than a pleasing decoration meant to draw attention to a certain physical feature such as a cross that hangs just above the breast, an anklet, rings or really anything else. If it has a meaning to the person wearing it, so be it. It could be an interesting point of conversation if that is where you want to go, but otherwise I see it as a pretty decoration.

Edit to add:

FWIW I used to wear a small one as an ear ring many years ago. Not as a symbol of faith, but because it went with the life I was living then. The only significance it had was that it belonged to my Grandmother.
