I disagree that this is very factual. Women had wealth and prestige even in the colonial days. But the point is women complain and b!tch and blame men and claim unfareness no matter how good women have it. The past has nothing to do with justifying women getting advantages now.penkitten said:ok, so no one really wants to talk about the very old history but what about the dawn of america?
there are diaries that date back to these settlers and children of settlers that write about their lives.
in the beginning of our country, women were not allowed to vote and the man controlled the money, unless he asked her to help ,very primary education and she stayed at home while he went off to work.
the men left the home and went out into the wicked world , and worked in all sorts of conditions, some very hazardous. he couldn't wait to get home to relax. he felt his wife had it great because she stayed home to relax all day.
on the other hand, she took care of children, planted and tilled the crops , cooked, churned butter, made candles, killed chickens by her own hands,sewed and spun all day and educated the children the best she could . all she did was work with no break and did not leave home.
if her husband died, she did not even get to keep their things unless she had a son to inherit it. it would go to the state.
however, if she did not marry, she was expected to be a primary school teacher or a spinner because that was about the only jobs available.
so the choices were, to either marry and be submissive to a man and raise a family with all the hard work one must endure OR become a spinster.
if men did not want to marry, they could choose other occupations.
some women wrote in their diaries about how they hated being a slave to a man that they did not love, how they only missed their husband who had been out of town for months a little and others wrote about how their husbands were their best friends and couldn't imagine life without them.
some longed for education, but men thought women were too stupid to go to school and become doctors and such.
why are husbands referred to as afc these days?aliasguy said:- This is NOW.
AFC husbands

Agreed.backbreaker said:let me hime in.
the purpose of this thread is not a history of women, it is supposed to show a connection in lieu to women and being as feminist as they are, which it does not.
Never try to read a woman's mind. It is a scary place. Ignore her confusing signals and mixed messages. Assume she is interested in you and act accordingly.

why are more and more men becoming afc's now?aliasguy said:-
Not all husbands are AFC's (but I was)
But a lot are, and THAT is a benefit to many married women. (sorta!!!)
all women secretly are angry that they are physically weaker than men. women just hate the fact that at the end of the day they can't stand up to a man face to face.ketostix said:I disagree that this is very factual.

i don't know about being secretly angry but it is frustrating when you are not strong enough to do something that is needed to be done without depending on a man to do it for you.joekerr31 said:all women secretly are angry that they are physically weaker than men. .
STR8UP said:But you want to know the kicker? The kicker is that this whole feminist thing has BACKFIRED on women and now they are left wondering why they can't find a decent man! Well DUH! You told him to go away now you wonder where he's at!
Women are having their heyday. But their days are limited. Men are catching on, and they aren't going to sit around and watch themselves be lampooned while they jerk off to internet porn forever.
Don't always be the one putting yourself out for her. Don't always be the one putting all the effort and work into the relationship. Let her, and expect her, to treat you as well as you treat her, and to improve the quality of your life.

from what i read, they had quality issues in the past.joekerr31 said:us men suffer also because there are less quality women around.
dont you find it strange how many guys on here are so focused on needing a woman, and yet, in reality, a man doesn't really need a woman for anything other than getting laid and sharing an emotional bond?penkitten said:i don't know about being secretly angry but it is frustrating when you are not strong enough to do something that is needed to be done without depending on a man to do it for you.
correct. it was always though that women left to their own devices would cause a mess.penkitten said:from what i read, they had quality issues in the past.
i think that is why there were so many rules on women in the past. it was to ensure men that a wife would have certain qualities/ abide by those rules.
If it weren't for the fact that the president is "controlled" by many outside influences, I would be worried sh!tless. I don't believe that (most) women have a place being in charge. they always have something to prove, and they are still WOMEN, and as such are not capable of rational thought in the same way that men are.penkitten said:st8up
your reply was so insightful and i agreed with it.
except i don't know what you meant by the limited time with all this hillary running for president stuff going on.
what if she gets elected? how will that change things for women?
I've stumbled across and I've changed 3 tires on 3 occassions for women who cars broken down. I've worked on cars for years so it was really just nothing for me to do it and I was trying to be helpful. Now 2 of them who were younger didn't even seem grateful or even offered me a dime. That made me feel like and they acted I was a sucker and they were entitled after I fixed it. One a middle aged woman did give me $5. Guess which woman I felt respect for?This is what I'm getting at msot women have no respect or gratitude towards men or anything they do.penkitten said:i don't know about being secretly angry but it is frustrating when you are not strong enough to do something that is needed to be done without depending on a man to do it for you.
for instance, changing a tire. most women do not know how. never learned. i know how, but can not get the lug nuts off because i am not strong enough. there is only so much strength in my 100 lbs ... however, while trying to loosen the lug nut, i will admit to be openly angry that i could not get the thing to budge and had to resort to paying someone to do it for me.
Is that a form of "penis envy"?joekerr31 said:all women secretly are angry that they are physically weaker than men. women just hate the fact that at the end of the day they can't stand up to a man face to face.
Very very interesting point. Could the manipulative nature of women have something to do with the fact that they must be able to have a "safety net"?a woman's only protection from a man's physical strength is other men.
Bingo. The problem is now there aren't any quality assurance program for women in place.penkitten said:from what i read, they had quality issues in the past.
i think that is why there were so many rules on women in the past. it was to ensure men that a wife would have certain qualities/ abide by those rules.
you and i both know that not all men know how to function without a woman.joekerr31 said:dont you find it strange how many guys on here are so focused on needing a woman, and yet, in reality, a man doesn't really need a woman for anything other than getting laid and sharing an emotional bond?
i can tell you this much. i can cook better than a woman, i do my own wash, etc.
a woman honestly doesn't enhance my life in any other way other than if i enjoy her company and the sex i get.
but when i think of the benefits a woman gets from me? i help her think straight when she's emotionally upset. if things need lifting no problem. she gets protection when im walking with her at night. she gets the potential of me as a provider for her and children (if she plays her cards right). etc.
seems a bit lopsided to me. women must scratch their heads at how, in exchange for basically sex, they get so much in return.
Being the serial boyfriend I once was, I had 3 that would have married me.joekerr31 said:those two women lost out on a great guy (me). they chalked it up in their minds as me being commitment phobic, but the truth was, they didn't know how to be a mature woman. not enough such that i could feel comfortable putting my future on the line with them (more specifically creating lives with them!).
At this point you probably have a woman (or multiple women) chasing you around, calling you all the time, wanting to be with you. So let's talk about how to KEEP a woman interested in you once you have her. This is BIG! There is nothing worse than getting dumped by a woman that you really, really like.
