Rant about men!

What's wrong with getting a manicure? I mean I won't because I'm not quite THAT metro... but really isn't something like that about taking care of yourself?

Oh... and... you suck!

Love,
SH

I have to say that I am damn lucky with my husband. He works his butt off to support us (I'm an artist who earns near squat), always helps out with chores when asked and even when not asked, and is happy to handle the heavy stuff for me because I have annoyingly weak arms. I don't hear him **** talking about anyone really unless someone has seriously crossed him. When that happens, there is no forgiveness though. He can harbor a grudge like no other. Scorpio to the bone (don't really believe in that stuff, but I like to joke about it because the glove fits in his case).

Thank you for giving me a giggle :laugh:
My guy always opens the door, carries the groceries and is just the sweetest gent ever
This doesn't make me feel all "weak and girly" it makes me feel special with his acts of care and love :blushing: .
He works hard every day and still he's always at my car door opening it for me. The thing is it isn't a one way street, everyday I try to do something that quietly shows him how much I appreciate and love him. It's a partnership and it takes work...but I believe we're both worth it.
There is nothing wrong with a guy looking after himself (manicures are great) my problem is with the guys/gals who are foul mouthed and think that by "bad mouthing" their significant other; it some how makes them look like 'big' people in the eyes of their mates...:noway:

You should hear some of the rubbish that I hear leaving female lips :laugh: Here's the bottom line, some PEOPLE are idiots.

Women pushed to equality and men didn't understand what that meant. Equality meant that women would like the ability to hold down the same jobs as men, getting the same pay for the same or equal job, the same benefits, etc. Men took women's desire for equality to the extreme, figuring that women also wanted to be treated like men - opening their own doors, carrying their own packages, etc.

There is a difference between equality and respect.

Equality means that women are given the same opportunities as men, such as being able to hold the same jobs, being paid the same as men for the same or equal jobs, being able to attend the same schools, being able to advance into the same positions as men, etc.

Respect, on the other hand, is realizing that women are human beings, not some bird that is pregnant, some chick that is someone you would 'do', etc. Opening doors, helping with carrying packages, buying a woman flowers, paying for the first date (especially if the man asked first), walking on the road side of the sidewalk, etc. comes out of respect.

Unfortunately, since men misunderstood what women meant as 'equality', they threw out those things that show respect.

Look at older men (those in their 80s) and how they treat women and compare that to younger men. The older men have it right, as far as I am concerned. They show respect to women, whereas the younger men (not all of them, but a lot of them) show very little respect toward women, seeing them only as something to fulfill their sexual needs.

Women have a long way to go before they are treated well, but I'm not going to hold my breath waiting because I don't see it happening. Women will always be seen as sexual toys first and foremost, and then maybe, just maybe, as the relationship grows, the man will see her as a human being.

Wow. Well, women just want cake and eat it too. Women who demand respect will get it. It's a sad fact that most do not because they are insecure. There's a reason that there are about 9 women for every man on MFP. Most women are rather vain and would rather be beautiful than smart or successful. If women didn't put up with being treated as objects, they wouldn't. But they get their ego boost from being sexually desired.

See, you aren't the only one that can make wild generalizations about the opposite sex.

And men don't?

. "Here you bust your butt right along with me and then I get to be the boss"


Or how about when they both work but SHE does all the housework...hmmmm?

Nu uh I don't think so.

Hi, what language are you speaking? I see no racism here and this isn't a thread about religion so whatever the Mormon says doesn't matter lol. I want to poke my effing eyes out right now with that typing. If for some reason it's an actual language being spoken that I don't know about than forgive me lol.

I think what you are asking for is positive discrimination. That's not equality. I'm fine with opening my my doors, carrying my bags or anything. I would only think less of a man when he doesn't help me when I'm crashed under heavy bags, when he doesn't hold the door after he goes through it first and slam it on my face (if that ever happens, I'll probably kick that person's *kitten*), or he leeches in a relationship. All of them goes for a woman as well, I'd pissed off with a female friend if she does those. I would be pissed off when he avoids sharing any responsibility in a relationship, but then again I've never been with such a guy. It's a personality issue, not a gender issue as I've seen as irresponsible females.

Seeing women as an object for sex only is another issue though. That's not about being a man, that's about being a douche bag and whereas men are welcome in my life, douche bags aren't.
