I found those on another message board. It seemed relevant to us, so tell me what you think:
Unfaithful
I have no sympathy for girls whose boyfriends cheat on them. None. And I also have no objection to boys who decide to cheat, or to cheating myself.
Why? Because in almost every situation in our society, men are the ones who have to seek out women, and women the ones who simply wait to be found. So, they’ve gotten arrogant. They expect too much, and claim too many rights over those who would love them.
Come on too strong, and they complain of being ‘violated’. There is never any mention of how the guy might feel violated too, in being told that his emotions aren’t important enough to worry over. Male desires are almost always seen as something cheap and crude, while girls view themselves as precious, and practically divine.
Should we be forced to accept this humiliating idea of our own worthlessness?
“Well, it’s up to them when they feel violated.” I’m sorry, but sometimes you don’t have the right to feel how you do. Any dislike of a person which does not directly stem from proven actions on their part is merely the product of vanity and prejudice. To reject the genuine warmth of another person is to kill a part of him, as you are forcing the suppression of his best and most elevated instincts. Have we entered some kind of parallel universe where affection leads to contempt and the blunt outcut the sharp? I would hope not.
Now, I have nothing against women. There are three billion of them, and I haven’t met them all. Any girl who tells no lies, plays no games, is open, loving, and gentle deserves to be treated with all the respect you can muster. But as for the rest of them, they’re fair game.
