Well, I knew that little shot at you would provoke you. Thank you for the response.
Nah, you didn't provoke me. Don't worry.
it's 00Kevin not Kevin00, like 007. get it?
Terribly sorry. I hate it when people get my name wrong. I love Bond by the way. Connery kicks the snot out of the others.
Whenever a woman calls a man a cave man it totally lessons her credibility. FYI, there are no cave men around anymore. That was over 6000 years ago. Perhaps you need a history lesson.
Well, I could argue that when you say someone's who's dedicated 4 years of their life to educating themselves, and all they can accomplish is being an educated-bum is lessening your credibilty.
And I am taking some history classes next semester. I hope my prof can teach me more about human evolution. It's a topic I find fasinating. I recently studied about Gender-Roles from an Anthropological perspective. Neat stuff.
Some of the guys on here are just frustrated and angry about the way women are acting today. I would hope that you would just ignore the extremes. They are just lashing out against the feminization of modern culture.
I think you're confusing social expectations and PC enculturalization with Femininity. I'm afraid I don't believe in any of those things.
We're *told* what's girlie and what's manly. Why do we have to believe it? Be who you are. Treat others with respect. If other people don't, then say goodbye to them, and live your life.
This is to be expected. This is what happens when women try to manipulate men in to doing things that don’t come natural to them. Some guys just don't know how to articulate their response, and are thus more susceptible to violent behavior. I will say that every man has a natural urge to be violent.
No one likes to be manipulated, men or woman. And while most men do have a predisposition to more physical displays of aggression, (the extra testosterone) it's the evolution of our species (that you pointed out earlier) that is the control mechanism for that rage. We have a Superego, and an Ego to control our animalistic natures. That's why we're not animals anymore.
That's just who we are, and we are good at it too. That’s why we are natural protectors as well. We have grown to become that way: to protect our women and our children. You have to accept this.
There's nothing wrong with wanting to protect who you love. But women are just as venemous in protecting their spouses and children.
If you knew what it feels like to be a man and get angry, you would understand the wrath and power that we have. You would also understand how difficult it is to control it. For the most part it is only inner strength and the modern laws of society that prevent us from being violent. With that in mind you would also respect men more. But quite frankly, we really don't expect you to understand this.
I can't understand it. I'm a woman. But you can't ever see my side of the cerebellum either, can you? I'm just saying that, besides a few different chemicals and hormones, and innie or outtie dangly-bits, men and women are the same. It's society that changes us. And we have a choice to accept that programming, or strive to be better than the norm. And I respect men and women equally- provided they do the same for me.
What troubles me about your statements is that you don't acknowledge that men and women are different. I get the impression that you think men and women should play the exact same role in a family unit. This is false notion.
I realize men can't breast feed, (unless you saw that Family Guy when Peter gets in-touch with his girl-side...) and women can't have an erection. But when it comes down to nurturing the children, cooking dinner, fixing the pipes, mowing the lawn, etc, I believe either parent is qualified. If you find a woman who prefers to do tradionally-female-classified roles in the home, and she and you like it that way, then all power to you. But it's just not for me. I can mow the lawn, cook dinner, toss a football, and kiss the kids goodnight- and still be a woman.
If you can’t see the differences between men and women then you are blind. If all you see is cave men when you look at a men that are providers, then you are delusional. Men and woman are only equal in that we have equally important roles, however; each role is very different.
I can see the physical differences between men and women, but I refuse to believe that the only heights a person can attain is a pre-determined role that was defined hundreds of years ago. I want more for myself, and future generations.
Women are natural nurturers and men are natural providers. You can't go against nature. If you do you will only be unhappy. I will say that I would much rather let a woman look after the children and cook. I know that I just wouldn't be good at it. So for me I require a type of woman that isn't afraid to take care of those things, and isn't afraid to be a woman. I'm a provider and that is that. I also think that most men on this board who are not AFCs feel the same way.
Technically, the only definition of a woman or female is the sex of the species that produces eggs. I don't see how wanting to share all the chores and parts of life equally makes me less of a woman. Could you please explain?
As for you not wanting to have children or possible even get married. Well that is your choice. Just don't expect a good guy to take you seriously. You will become a cougar (if you are not already) the kind of life you are trying to live has been dictated to you by the fema-nazi regime(who are mostly lesbians anyway).
I suppose you're entitled to your opinion, but why do you attack my choice to not have children in this already over-populated, environmentally damaged world? I'd be much happier knowing I made the lives of the children already born better, and working to repair what's been done.
I'm only 23, so here's hoping I'm not a cougar yet. Perhaps a Kit. Kougar in Training.
Femme-Nazi? That would mean... a female National Socialist. I am female, but I vote NDP. And what's up with attacking Lesbians now?
I doubt very much that you will be truly happy.
But I *am* truly happy, right now. I have thought very deeply about this, and I create my own happiness. Having a loving partner is just the cherry on the sundae of my life.
The real joke is that you make yourself out to be ‘the man’ but you don’t even go after the AFCs that would naturally support your behavior. We all know why this is: It’s because your natural instinct tells you to select the alpha male.
Perhaps I'm misunderstanding, but I really don't get this. I just date and make friends with people who I find a connection with- who love me, and who I love back.
The bottom line regarding this issue is that men on this board (the non AFCs) know what it means to be a man. We are in total control at all times weather you like it or not.
Hey- some people need to feel like they're in control at all times. It's ok. I'm good with that. You can drive. I'll sit back, close my eyes, and feel the breeze and sun on my face. (If you get tired though, just ask, I'll take over.)
Ever been man handled before babe? if you haven't I'm sure you would like it.
Being "Man-handled" just has connotations of violence to it. Not into that at all. If you meant- the touch of a man who I love, and who loves me, then yes- totally, I agree with you one hundred percent.
