Every Young Man-s Battle - Strategies for Victory in the Real World of Sexual Temptation (The Every Description:
Every Young Man's Battle : Strategies for Victory in the Real World of Sexual Temptation (The Every Man Series) review: 5 stars (Just what you are looking for...) - This book handles all the issues about sexual purity for every young man.
Great. 3 stars (It makes me mad how this book portrayes the girls like they are victims.) - Are they victims? One of the girls says, "I was so wanting to wait for my wedding night, but
I also wanted to make him happy, so I let it go too far."
So its all his fault?
He was wrong for pressuring her but she is wrong for letting it happen. She said he herself.
"...but I also wanted to make him happy."
Forget about his happiness. She said she wanted to wait for her wedding night. So she should
have. So stop acting like its all the guys fault.
Another girl stated that she really like this guy and he tried some things that made her
uncomfortable. She said she asked him to stop but he persisted. "Finally he just wore me
down and I eventually gave in. He had weakend my defenses."
What! Ok, again. Guys should stop pressuring these girls like this.
But it makes me mad that she settled for that. Oh woe is her.
For goodness sake stand up and tell the guy no, and if he tries anything again. He's out of here.
Another girl said she hated making her boyfriend feel bad and having the blame pushed back on her. So she gave in.
So here is another victim. How come these girl couldn't stand up and say that she is not going to do it no matter how much he tries? And if he tries it again. She out of there.
I'm sick of this blame being pushed on guys. I know we try. But these girls make it seem like that if we do try they are not powerful enough to resist. Is that true ladies?
If it is, no wonder the guys are persistent.
I have seen some very strong girls in my time and maybe somebody should teach these girls to be also.
I remember a time when I was kissing this girl, which was her idea by the way, but when I tried to see if could have sex with her. She became furious. She grab my hand, pointed her hand in my face and said. "If I EVER did that again I'm gone." I was taken back. I held my hands in the air and said. "OK OK!" I never tried that again.
At least one girl was honest and didn't act like a victim.
Lets make one thing clear. I'm not excusing guys. Because we should become more like gentlemen.
Its just makes me mad that society makes it seems like we guys are solely the reason for all this sexual misbehavoir and that all women are victims like this book portrays.
But nevertheless, this is a book for men so they should talk about not pressuring girls.
But in this big world we live in complete innocence is not present in the woman's camp as well.
5 stars (Real and Honest - Excellent if you're young and struggling) - I highly recommend this book if your young and struggling. I'm a 24 year old male training to be a youth pastor, and struggling with lust is very fraustrating to me. I've tried many times to clean it up on my own...but to no avail. Reading "Every Young Man's Battle" was very helpful in helping me understand my struggles, and gave practical specific steps on how to guard against temptation and lust. The book was CLEARLY written by someone who's "been there" before us. It's straight-shooting, blunt, and real. And when your dealing with something as spiritually disabling as lust - you want advice that's gonna get results fast. God has done a great thing through these authors - I highly recommend this book!
