Honestly , I think that is a true quote , , what most girl’s don’t realize especially in today’s world with all the negativity that surrounds us and all the nonsense we see and hear and read about on social media that everyone is a cheater , that no one can ever love you , that all men are assholes and whores and all women are bitches and whores etc. The truth is , we all have selfishness inside us , when you learn to remove that selfishness from inside yourself for the one that you love , that’s the only way love grows , we are all imperfect people , we all have some type of insecurity inside us , we all come from different paths in life , we all have made some type of dumb decision , we all have did something that we regret , But when it comes to love and relationships we all have hearts. The only way love can grow between 2 people is by removing your inner selfishness for each other , understanding you can’t always be right and they are wrong , understanding for someone to value you , you need to value them , understanding making each other your top priority over everyone else is important , understanding the only way your partner can except your flaws is by accepting theirs whether You agree or disagree with your partner your partner should be your everything , cuz when push comes to shove , no matter what happens in life , when you love and respect your partner , your partner is going to do the same for you , it won’t always be perfect but your partner will be by your side the same way you need to be by theirs , you and your partner are a team , it’s you and your partner VS this fucked up world we live in. What most girls don’t realize with men is we aren’t going to stand by a girl that doesn’t value and respect us , we aren’t going to sacrifice for a girl that doesn’t sacrifice for us , we rent going to remove selfishness for her if she doesn’t remove it for us , we want a girl that wants to be in our arms we want a girl that looks up to us and stands by us no matter what obstacles we face , we want a girl that only has eyes for us that won’t hesitate to say No to another man that is trying to get with her , we want a girl that makes us a priority over her friends , that doesn’t exclude us from things , when a girl does that for her man he will so do the same for her. A man’s role is to protect his girl at all cost , but she assumes he is being insecure and he doesn’t trust her and that’s where she is wrong , he knows what other guys are thinking and he knows what other men’s intentions are, just like a girl knows what other girls intentions are , A guy is only going to resist temptation from another girl when he feels valued and loved and wanted by his partner , a partner Gould only walk away if they are physically abused and cheated on when she constantly nags at him and compares him starts fights with him over little things point finger at him over pointing fingers t herself , he will start to lose respect for her , he starts to feel he isn’t worthy of her and starts to feel worthless , that no matter what he does for her isn’t good enough , by her doing those things to him is pushing him to see what’s behind her , when she treats him like a doormat instead of her King he will start losing respect for her , the only way she will be treated like a Queen is when she gives him the same love and respect he is giving her. You can’t expect someone to remove selfishness for you if you can’t remove it for them. So yes her body is his gift because he feels she is a gift from God if she values and respects him and loves him and looks up to him , He will protect her at all cost , Most girls don’t realize what they have with a man until he is gone , when she chooses selfishness over him , A guy doesn’t marry a girl to trade her in he only trades her in when she doesn’t know how to remove selfishness

people be getting offended over anything these days

shows that they lack any rational thought to think deeper "OMG I'm so disgusted!" it's even funnier to see some dudes virtue signaling at their own fake outrage

for some reason the word "property" triggers people so much into political correctness

a husband is suppose to be someone whom the wife is suppose to love and trust so much that even if she were his "property" that she'll be taken good care of but nah, it's more demonization of marriage and by extension the nuclear family unit

I do like this quote because it’s true. Now some people may be triggered because this quote is supposedly sexist, but in reality it’s not.

To explain, a gift is usually given to someone to show their appreciation or love for that person. So in this sense a women’s body is kind of like a gift to her husband to show her appreciation and love for him. This could also be said the other way around: a man’s body is a gift for his wife to unwrap.

Now to counterattack some peoples claims of this being rooted in men believing women are objects. First of all this quote doesn’t even mention that the women is owned by the guy. A gift is always given willingly and only becomes the receivers property when the person actually gives it to them. So again since this quote could be said the other way around it’s not sexist as they are both willingly giving themselves to each other.

It's disgusting, it relegates us to the level of a mere object created to be the property of someone else.

You're back! I haven't see you in a while and was wondering if you were still around.

That's pretty deep, and although it may be a beautiful message to some, I think waiting 'til marriage is stupid to be honest. Other men should have a right to admire any woman they choose, and a woman should feel free to show her beauty off to other men. Whatever, it's HER choice, and the sex thing I can still rationalize, but I think a women who believe her beauty is only for her husband are stupid and selfish. A woman should feel free to wear whatever she wants in public and sleep around if she wants. If it's her personal choice that's ONE thing, but she shouldn't feel obligated to act this way simply because society or her religion wants her to. Just because other men might find you sexy, doesn't mean you aren't a loyal wife/girlfriend. It should be taken as a compliment I feel. And I don't think a woman is worth any less if she's not a virgin.

NewsReader · Answer

I think it makes sense, but only applies to the old days. And it goes both ways too. It means that marriage between a man and a woman results in her being a gift to him. Unwrapping can have multiple meanings. Women brought a lot of benefits for the men. From sexuality to children to help with things he didn't have much time to do, and more. At the same time, men were gifts because they brought her resources and played their own role in marriage.

I like it.

It about virginity? used goods don't get unwrapped, yea I agree that virgin women are best.

HaveNoName · Answer

That statement has a horrible connotation. I do not like it.

I prefer the "not entirely related" statement that: Your body is a cover for your spouse's body. You have been made permissible for each other. It also tells you that while you are permissivle for each other, it is also a responsibility of both of you to keep the act sacred and personal without public display.

Adam1978 · Answer

That it's no longer relevant, there is few women who can and is willing to give that gift. Because they have already given it away over and over again and it's no longer a price or a gift. A hundred years ago it was still valid, will it ever be this way again who knows?

electromagnetic · Answer

Try that again.  A woman’s body is a gift for her to unwrap and touch her breasts and look at her vagina with a mirror.

the_bruh · Answer

Nope, a woman's body is her own and she decides who should unwrap it. If she's good at finding the right dude, all is good.

DryGermanGuy · Answer

How wonderfully anachronistic, no? 🙄

Mansearching · Answer

Kinda kinky. If my wife was wrapped up in ribbons and bows. But just in general it saying that a man should be a male shovenistic pig.

Soremain · Answer

Way too dumb quote for a such fancy background.

ChillaxingLove · Answer

I like that. Now if we can find a gift that’s not already unwrapped. 🙃

BoobMan · Answer

It seems like a romantic notion that for some reason fills certain people with a highly irrational rage! lol!

Zayed_ · Answer

True and vice versa. I’m loyal to her and she should be loyal to me. Every wrap has two ends.

WhitneySnow · Answer

It sounds romantic but I would change husband to beloved or lover. Keeps the romantic feeling but more inclusive if you don’t wanna get married (or can’t yet).

This_Is_My_Opinion8 · Answer

I hate it.  1. The husband's body is as important. 2. But most importantly, people's value is not defined by their bodies

Hispanic-Cool-Guy · Answer

I agree with it. That's the way it should be.

Sounds like something an engaged woman wants to believe.
