Sheesh, this thread is done.

You guys are a bunch of shrews.

Good job acting like men.

Oh ok, buddy, but you're NOT a misogynist.

What the fuck did you expect from us? For us to act passive aggressively? Is that how you think women act?

Sorry, but I don't play those bullshit games. I'm very direct with people, especially when they are being asshats. I mean, isn't that typically how men act?

Pretend this is Reddit and we all have a Y chromosome. Would you act all butthurt if a group of guys told you the same thing, that you're acting like an entitled brat?

I am a current law student with a law student fiance planning a wedding. I am familiar with both the angst of applying to law school and the comparative ease of planning a wedding. According to OP, I am exactly the poster he wants to hear from on this subject. No, it is not reasonable to expect the bridesmaid to postpone her LSAT until the Dec. test date. A December score will be released far too late in the acceptance season for it to be beneficial. Your fiance, her friend, should understand that the LSAT is the second most important exam of this woman's career (the first is obviously the Bar) and should want what is best for her friend. The detriment to the bridesmaid, if she were to postpone the exam, is far greater than the detriment to your wedding, if she takes the exam as scheduled.

How long is the LSAT and at what times does it usually begin?

Do you think she could complete it with enough time to be on time for a 6pm ceremony?

OP already said that the test starts at 8:30 am and lasts up to 5 hours.

So it will be over at 1:30pm-2pm if they get breaks.

And their ceremony is at 6pm.

I really fail to see what the fucking problem is.

Oh wait, the problem is that this couple seems to want the BMs to be at the back and call of the bride and help her DIY, set up the venues, do her make up, etc.

Just curious, what are the GMs supposed to be doing for you? What are you, as the Groom, going to be doing?

All of this.

And since you asked, you have to be there at 8:30 am for the October date (most likely starting at 9), and the test itself consists of 6 35-minute timed sections (3.5 hours total of test time). There is one 15 minute break halfway through. So, if everything starts on time, she should be walking out of the test by 1 pm (9 am + 3.75 hours = 12:45 pm). Even if things run a few minutes behind schedule that still gives her plenty of time to get ready for a 6 pm ceremony.

You guys can bicker about the situation as much as you want.

I wanted opinions from other people involved in weddings. Most of your opinions are spiteful and lousy; have fun tearing each other apart.

OK so the test is at 8:30am and the whole thing takes 4-5 hours. So she'll be done at 12:30-1:30pm. That gives her 5.5-4.5 HOURS before the wedding. That's more than enough time to get ready with the girls. Your problem is that you want her to work for you. And that is YOUR problem.

Ladies, GTFO of here with your logic. That's a thing only for men.

Seriously, did Tim Hunt finally decide to marry one of his female staff members that he's always falling in love with/ who are always falling in love with him, and so he made an account today?

Clearly this guy is a troll, since he changed the title and the original post. I want the record to show, I called troll on page 1.

@Lyndausvi @liatris2010 can mods ban or does it have to come from admins?

I don't know that it means he's a troll. He could still be a groom who foolishly believes that setting up a wedding is what the women folk do. But he may be in tune with the forums to know that words are better than a bat signal.

Did you read what he wrote in place of his original post? It has nothing to do with a wedding now. He's a troll.

There's some very passionate responses here.

Let me clarify a few things.

My fiancé is not a bridezilla. We are both very practical and frugal. This wedding is not a large, extravagant event. Close friends and family, under 100 guests.

The bridesmaids are not being used as "slave labor". My fiancé would like with the bouquets, makeup, etc.

The bridesmaid in question is older, has dabbled in 3-4 majors, and has just NOW graduated with a degree. She is up to her eyeballs in debt, and is now insisting on applying to Ivy League law schools. She actually did very well on her LSAT in February, but is insisting on taking it once again. She wants to become a civil rights attorney to "change the system".

This isn't some budding, mature female lawyer. Its your run of the mill naive Millennial.

This isn't a Lifetime special, ladies. The world doesn't revolve around unrealistic career aspects.

You all can believe what you'd like. I think its selfish to take a test on a wedding day, when you're scheduled to be IN the wedding.

I know there are some people with common sense who will agree with me.

You have absolutely no right to criticize the bridesmaid's desire to attend law school. This is none of your business.
If your FI needs help preparing for the wedding, she should hire someone to help her. This is what most brides do.
Sooo mature of you to change your original post. You were quoted, so it doesn't matter.
Name calling is against the TOS.

He feigned butthurt far too early on to be a troll, imo. Trolls, in my experience, keep on going at it and pushing buttons to get a rise.

Men, you're missing the point.

Pumping is from the devil.

We must all resist Satan!

Knottie1434082956 · June 2015

So is this what modern, enlightened men do all night?

You should thank me for giving you men something to whine about all night.

I bet everyone here likes football, video games, and building yard furniture.

Why, exactly, do you think it's an insult to us to call us men? What point are you trying (and failing) to make? Why would that even occur to you to say?

I hate football but love hockey, I do enjoy video games and play several with my DH, and I like building all kinds of furniture.

What's your point?

If I were a dude, I'd definitely be Jon Hamm. What about you all, fellow Knotties? Who do you claim?

Viczaesar · June 2015

Dude, take a look at yourself. You're throwing a hissy fit on a message board because you asked what to do about a situation and were told that your expectations for your wedding party members were unrealistic. You're straining to get some sort of reaction - what, exactly? Why are you acting like you have all the maturity of a fifth grader? It's really sad to watch, frankly. It's a shame that you're apparently old enough to legally get married, because your mental and emotional maturity lags far behind.

Not that I think you'll answer, but did you post this picture of Rachel Dolezal (a white woman who is apparently passing as black) thinking you were posting a picture of Laverne Cox (fabulous transsexual woman)? ETA: Or are you straying from your bizarre "You must be dudes" roll and dipping into racial issues? Or am I giving you too much credit by assuming that you are operating on some sort of logic, however twisted that might be?
