Seems to be old hat for her. She scores insane numbers almost every game.

This team is gonna be a great next few years. 2017-18 may be a B1G Championship season. 

You'll have a senior Flaherty, the current freshman crop as juniors and Gondrezick & Kayla Robbins as sophomores.

BTW, Flaherty was named First Team All-B1G today. The first for Michigan in over a decade and only the 4th ever. 

Tough year since the team is pretty young but they still had a chance to make the tournament. I think they'll easily make it the next 4 years.

No, it's not. Either way, the message you're conveying is that you are really attracted to the physical appearance of a high school girl. If you're in your 40s, that's very weird. I guess if you'd be fine with that happening to your daughter then that's your opinion, but I certainly wouldn't.

I think the bottom line here is that you have a Puritanical moral code and are trying to project your hang-ups onto me. Saying someone is "attractive" in no ways conveys anything but a recgonition of someone's physical characteristics, and in my opinion can be used on someone regardless of age or even gender. I would not feel weird calling another man "attractive," even though I am straight, for example. You can keep calling her a "high school girl" to make it seem creepy if you want, but you are overlooking the fact that she is of an age where, by law, she could marry a 65 year old man if she wanted. Maybe that would be creepy to you, or even most of society, but now we are talking about the cultural norms of our time and nothing else. All that said, I hope you have a wonderful time today self-flagellating, and may your horse hair shirt be as abrasive as always...

Thank you for this illuminating comment. Your example of a 65 year old man marrying an 18 year old girl isn't really helping. You don't want to be labeled a creep, that's fine. But I'm not going to apologize for feeling creeped out by what you said, or assuming that by calling her incredibly attractive you were, you know, saying you're incredibly attracted.

It's funny, because unless she's a very young senior she's at least 17 and probably 18. Given that I just said she was attractive, I truly didn't find it at all creepy. Creepy would be making a doll out of hair I pulled from her brush...

Why are you still talking? You find it creepy because of your own hang ups, not because of what the original poster said. We get it, you think calling someone attractive means the person saying it can only mean it in a sexual way. All normal, not contrarian internet people don't agree. Move on and figure out why everyone thinks you're wrong

Read the rest of my posts. If you're a middle aged man who finds yourself incredibly attracted to the physical appearance of a high school girl, you're a creep. I'm creeped out by you, the girl would be creeped out by you, her parents would be creeped out by you, etc.

You're mincing words... the original comment was "incredibly attractive", it was not that the poster was incredibly attracted to her - there's a big difference there. And for the record, I have two daughters, and I am not, and wouldn't be, offended by that comment unless it was delivered in a creepy manner.

I think you're the one who has the real issue here and are trying to pawn it off on others. Seek help... I believe there are groups you can join to discuss your issues in an open, non-judgmental forum.

What a jackass. I have issues because I find it creepy when a presumably middle aged man insinuates that he's incredibly attracted to a high school girl? What issues are those, exactly?

When you call someone "incredibly attractive," you're implying that you are incredibly attracted to them. I don't see how that's so hard to understand. As to the rest of your post, go be a douchebag somewhere else.

Dude, it's time for you to let all this go. You are making a string of assumptions about what I "really meant" when complimenting someone, and it's ridiculous. You're being ridiculous. We get it, you got your point and opinion across - any male above X years old saying any woman under 19 years old is attractive is a creepy dirt bag. I, and apparently most everyone else, disagrees with you. Case closed.

You realize you're dead wrong on this, right? If I say someone is incredibly attractive, that means I find them, in my opinion, to be incredibly attractive. To me. Which means I'm incredibly attracted to them. How is that so difficult to understand?

....sister is an incredibly attractive individual.   I assure you that I am not attracted to her.

People can be comfortable enough with their personal preferences to admit someone is "extremely attractive," male or female, young or old, related or unrelated, etc. without having sexual feelings for that person.

You are an imbecile.

I think your argument is silly. Men, regardless of age, will be attracted to a beautiful young woman as long as they're interested in women at all. For me the line between "natural" and "creepy" is whether you to to ACT on that attraction. We can all probably agree that a middle aged man trying to hook up with a teenager is wrong and creepy.

High school girls shouldn't be beautiful young women to a middle aged man. They're not women. So, for you, the line isn't crossed until an adult man actually tries to pick up a high school girl. For me, it's when he says he's incredibly attracted to one.

Believe what you like. I'm pretty sure there have been times where you've seen a woman that age and been attracted to her. There's nothing wrong with that. But, hey, you'd rather adopt this strange holier-than-thou attitude like men shouldn't be attracted to young women. Shine on, you crazy diamond.

Yes, there were plenty of times. They happened when I was in high school and college. When the age gap is 20 or 30 years, there's plenty wrong with it. You're changing it into something normal, men being attracted to young women, instead of just calling it like it is: a middle aged man being attracted to a high school girl who is, at best, barely an adult. My attitude isn't strange, or holier-than-thou. It's common sense.
