Alt Rave,

So ...... it's okay for a bloke to have sex with 22 women over his life, but it wouldn't be okay for a woman to have had sex with 22 blokes over HER life ? One is to be respected, the other is a slut ?

Hi Cherful,

Good on you ! Keep going ! Although I'm a bit worried by the possibility of banning men from driving if they keep perving on women - women, most certainly including Muslim women, are so unavoidably beautiful. So I can see your point. I have to confess that I've backed slowly into another car while perving, so it can get expensive :( And yes, I think you're right, that's how we are, it does take up too much space in our male reptile-brains. Probably even Alt Rave's.

Cheers,

Joe

//We don't see this as a bad thing, but you and your elk do.//

Wow, you have your own elk, CHERFUL? Just the one, or a herd? I've always liked deer.

//So to recap, according to the evidence there are far more promiscuous women out there today than when your father and I were 'on the prowl'.//

Well, no. The maths doesn't work out, I'm afraid. It's fairly obvious when you think about it: it takes two to tango. Which means that, on average, women have as much sex as fellas. Because if you've got all the women saying they've had very little sex, and all the men saying they've had lots, somebody has to be lying. Who are all these men supposed to have had sex with?

There's probably dishonesty on both sides of the equation, with women under-reporting and men exaggerating, but I have a hunch that the exaggeration accounts for most of the discrepancy found in surveys about promiscuity rates.

And this not some recent development; because it still took two to tango back when you were out clubbing women and dragging them back to your cave. Or boasting about non-existent women that you clubbed and dragged home in an effort to impress the other cavemen, at any rate.

Loudmouth, I can't believe you can't see the difference, between men and women.
Men are wired to 'chase' women.
If you disagree then I won't go any further.
On the other hand, a woman is, well, I honestly can't give a good enough description.
I love em' all.
They are 'special'.
I want to shield them, and yes I want to make love to them.
ALL of them.
Not all men have malicious thoughts towards women.
I think they're called 'rapists'.
We as men instinctively want to interact with women.
It's only natural.
You only have to look at a public scene, where you can see couples everywhere.
This is just another act of nature.
You have to understand that sluts play an important role in society.
They are part of the transition and development of boys into men.
If you seriously are trying to suggest that women chasing men is OK, you are not looking at it from a realistic point of view, but an emotional one.
Guys have been acting like idiots since forever.
We could rely on the women to bring men back into line or be there as a constant or stabiliser.
Now that the loony left have decided to encourage women to be equal to men, what's the first thing they head for?
Getting drunk and out of control.
This was the domain of men.
But no, the women turned into females and then began competing with the men and became 'maggots'.
I don't know about you, but when I see a guy pissed and collapsed all over the place, I just see a normal scene.
When it's a maggot, I see an undisciplined, irresponsible, loser who should know better, had her stupid parents not given her the keys to life and let her out without any training.
It's like giving her the keys to the car without her knowing 'anything' about driving.
So, at 67 and happily married, for 37 years, two accountant sons later, I still ogle women.
Remember, it's natural for guys.
I do know I'm not a pervert.

Alt Rave,

To be honest, I don't really put much store in the excuse the men's brains are more geared to sex than women's - I suspect that a long history of differential power plays a very important part in allowing men to think they have special rights, and 'therefore' needs. Hence they can justify screwing around, but bar it for women: power differentials.

These days, with effective contraception, women can behave pretty much like men, but shouldn't be despised because of it: I suspect that men are as attractive to women as women are to men, but that until the last fifty years or so, women have had to bottle it. On the other hand, both men and women should have the strength of character not to go at it like rabbits with all and sundry, no matter how much they would like to. Neither should women be looked down on for behaving like some men. There's more to deep friendships and relationships than sex, and it seems that women have had to adhere to that more than men have, throughout the history of societies everywhere.

I'm not sure what getting pissed has do with it all ?

Joe

Thanks Foxy.

Thanks Jo, loudmouth

Actually I’m very fond of my grandsons

Dear CHERFUL,

So am I!

We live in a different world.
