aka The Duggar family's television show... Did anyone see the episode last night where the oldest one (Josh) proposed to his girlfriend? They're not even going to KISS until their wedding day. It was so bad, it was good.

I've only seen that show once, but they won't even kiss until their wedding day?? That's... interesting.

Jessimurph · October 2008

I fail at being non judgmental. I find the whole thing ridiculous.

cbbc · October 2008

He said something like they even had to ask their parent's permisson to hold hands in public. But, his parents said they did kiss before their wedding day and regretted it. That's going to be one interesting wedding night.

REGRETTED it? O.M.G.

I had it set up to record- both the proposal episode and the one on dating rules. I'm anxious to watch now!

I can't even begin to imagine the awkwardness of the wedding night...

Sadly, I fell asleep before the dating rules one came on.

I totally respect saving sex for marriage and all, but I think refusing to even kiss is a bit extreme. What if they find they have no chemistry? Or maybe that sort of thing doesn't matter to them.

ericalynn · October 2008

The kissing is out of control. Even the Bible doesn't prohbit that. What if your chemistry is off and you are stuck with a bad kisser, ugggh, I can respect the no sex part, but no kissing? And you are engaged? Uggh, sorry, no can do.

I totally agree and their chemistry was so awkard. They're 20 years old and still have to have a chaperone on their dates. It was just so uncomfortable to watch, but I couldn't tear myself away.

BlairWaldorf · October 2008

I actually know a guy who didn't kiss his wife until the alter. All I can think is that it must have been one hell of an AWKWARD wedding night. To go from first kiss EVER to having sex within 4 hours? (and yes, not just first kiss to each other, but the alter kiss was both their VERY FIRST kiss) Yikes.

CarlyL · October 2008

I also know a couple from college who didn't kiss until the alter. Whatever floats their boat, but that wouldn't work for me.

BlairWaldorf · October 2008

It makes me wonder if most of the couples that save the first kiss for the alter don't actually have sex on their wedding night.

I'm not having sex with ANYONE that I've just kissed for the first time...husband or not. I have a process I've been very happy and comfortable with.

t.bird · October 2008

i went to a wedding where the alter kiss was the couple's first kiss- it was sweet & all, but damn.

the duggars piss me off with their fertile'ness

lenloe · October 2008

that would make for some awful sex. awful awful awful sex. omg i would never have sex again.

and LOLed at "gator landing".

Mrs. Pink · October 2008

I thought it was a tad overboard to not KISS before marriage. Plus, one of the siblings had to be a chaperone on their dates, or when they went to the guy's place of work. Whatever.

YachtRacer1977 · October 2008

Their wedding page makes my ass twitch.

Oh sweet infant Jesus.

My cousin got married to a man she never even looked in the eye until her wedding day. She lives in Romania and is part of (what I think is) a cult.

Now, to each his own, but seriously?

BlairWaldorf · October 2008

They registered at Walmart.

I"m sorry. I shouldn't laugh.

cbbc · October 2008

I want to see the wedding video they've promised to post.

buckin · October 2008

How in the heck did they meet?? Arranged marriage? I missed that show. I love to hate watching the Duggars...its like a trainwreck.

cbbc · October 2008

They met at a homeschool convention.

?alliebooberz? · October 2008

I watched and I KNOW it won't be a great success...

I see where they're coming from in saving all those things for marriage. When you are that committed to serving God above all others especially yourself, on your wedding night it's not awkward at all. I pinky swear.

KEW0323 · October 2008

A little late on this but I'm in Arkansas! I will go snoop and report back. Devil
