Help[Opinions] Re: The point...
in reply to a message by Chrisell
I honestly would mind. sure I know where the names came from, obviously, but maybe I was just raised differently than most people. If my name was Juliet, and my brother's name was Romeo, I'd probably just think my mother really loved both those names, or the story or something, if people said nasty things about me, and him that's thier problem, if they want to be weird and perverted it's thier buisness. I wouldn't think it was incestous that's going a bit far. Children get teasted regardless of anything, yes they might get teasted a bit more, but I'd teach them respect about thier own names, and how perverted people are now a days. I try not to think drity minded [as most kids do now a days]..i'm not saying you...i mean in general. I don't look at them as "sex stories", but yes romantic tales, and yeah they were tragic but it's only a story. I coulnd't use Juliet anways if I wanted to my niece is Julia, I'd defenitly use Romeo though. :)
I understand how people could get think wrong impression, buit to call it incestious I think is evil.

You seem to be in complete denial about this subject, and I'm not going to waste much time trying to convince you - if you're still immature enough to call sex "dirty" and "perverted" then it'll be a long time before you have kids anyway.
But rest assured, those stories are about SEX and since that's all teenage boys think about, your children would be verbally tortured because of your stubborn refusal to face facts.

Excuse me? I am mature. I am not in denial, I said I know people would think of those ways, but i'm Christian, I try not thinking that way. By means of "dirty" im not talking about sex in itself, because that's not dirty/perverted, but to think something was incetious IS pervert and dirty, when it's just two children named whatever the parents named them. I know the story well, I love Romeo & Juilet the play, but I see it more then just a 'sex' story, it goes much more then that, obviously many can't see that.
If you want me to be perverted like the rest of the world, then i'm sorry but your not going to get me to think that by seeing the names Romeo and Juliet or Tristan and Isolde that would be incestious together. That's just wrong. Yes they were lovers (there's more to lovers then just sex, there's a difference between love and lust), besides the story isnt even about sex, but it's not like it happend for real, maybe if it did i'd change my mind.
I DO see your point, but I still don't think naming them that is "bad", it may be a little odd in itself. Yes teasing potential would be more, but I do not think it's incestious.
