By Mal Fletcher, published 29/11/2017

'Respect for ourselves guides our morals,' wrote the Irish novelist Laurence Sterne. 'Respect for others guides our manners'.

Consent has never been a problem for me AC. First of all, inebriated women and smokers tend to make me vomit, go suddenly slack, look over there, there's Helen, or for for a (Can I drop you somewhere) taxi or a (not tonight love) headache.

I mean it's all furry boring. Particularly when you are the one looking at the ceiling, waiting for her to finish.

What gets my rocks off is when she climaxes in that position and is virtually paralysed with pleasure.

And has meant, I've never ever had to ask for intimacy from an intimate partner!

Just seem to have run out of desirable partners. Been regularly propositioned by ones with faces only mothers could love. Bodies like barrels with legs and others almost as attractive as the north end of a southbound camel And a similarly dispositioned mouth! And it's at these times I value my status as a, single again, male.

A roll in the hay is all well and good if the partner is safe! Not built like a Mack truck or is heavier than a pavement flattening steam roller!

And just takes all the fun out of it and has one looking for a phone and triple zero rescue crew!

e.g., Ambulance crew. Q: Is that a lump in the mattress?
Me. A: I am that lump in the mattress! Help!

"Some Things To Remember About Consent:
Consent is a continuous process, so it’s a good idea to keep checking in with your partner(s) throughout the exchange (“Is this ok? How are you doing?”). Consent can be withdrawn at any point in the sexual encounter."

Sounds like very good advice to me.

Another piece of advice I learned at a very young age.

"Don't trust your mates with your women."

I thought we were doing just fine in the 'good O'l days'. We would whistle at the girls, if you were lucky you got to give them a little 'slap' on bum. And all the time 'trying it on'. By todays standards all of this would be regarded as sexual harassment. Looking back now we, the men, gave in to the women and their demands, for different reasons. Some were threatened that they would never get any more sex if they didn't comply, and even after giving in they still didn't get any more sex. Most guys really didn't give shite and thought it was just some childish tantrum and therefore, what the heck, give em' their freedom and individuality. BIG MISTAKE! Along come Maggots like Germaine Grier, or whatever her bl....dy name was, stuffed it all up proper, and then years later, calmly declares she got it wrong. Sorry! Sorry my arse. I believe men should start taking back their rightful place on the throne. Right now women have been slowly sliding their arse onto the proverbial throne to the point they have managed to get one of their cheeks on the throne and left the man, still with a little more than one cheek on the throne but never-the-less being inched slowly off it. We have been maligned and set aside by a group of people who simply want to put men down and take control for nothing more than a show 'look at me, look at me'. There must be so many 'soft cocks' out there that are just not 'men' anymore. They have allowed women to sideline them because they're too stupid to see the bigger picture. Women cannot/must not be allowed to ascend to major management or boardroom levels. They do not posses the ability to function at those levels. I say we've let it go on for too long. Enough is enough, let's start pulling women back down if that's where they belong. What idiots keep saying we need more women. NO WE DON'T! We hire on performance not on gender.

Having read through this thread I can see many people are waking up to the agenda of those who want to bring a lot of young men, particuarly those of fighting age, into Australia.

I have been scorned for saying this but I will say it again. The purpose of brinbing in the muso's is destroy all sense of national pride and sense of national identity and any sense of what it means to be Australian.

Already they have been successful, because every Australia day when all the talk back radio and TV shows on "What it means to be Australian." I have noticed in the last few years, people are less and less certain of what it means to be AUSTRALIAN.

Compare Australia of today with Israel. Israel, has a very strong sense of national pride and national identity. Australia on the other hand has become a nation of bitz's, bitz of this and bits that and we dont really stand for anything anymore accept AFL and cricket.

Israel, on the other hand fiercely imposes and maintains very tight restrictions on the number of immigrants they take in. Notice that Israel taken in few if any Muslim immigrants whereas nearly all the industrialized word has taken in very sizeable levels of them.
