You too RObert
Seen those adds we are worth it?
The increasing idea grows, woman are worth it both the pedestal and ownership of males.
Leading to more DV against men and more men being unfaithful.

What about the one where the female cheats here male companion over a chocolate bar Belly. A very good actress she was as well because I haven't bought a Cherry Ripe ever since. (lol)

Gentlemen,

It sounds to me like it's time for you guys to change
who you associate with and find some positive,
productive, loving women - who will show you a whole
new world. ;-)

Lexi that is the heart of this matter.
You from your life can not Begin to think such women live and they do.
Give some thought to the differences in every life.
I talk of low income working class, such people live in different areas than you.
Too about middle to high income construction workers ,some owning 3 homes working to leave work early, harsh conditions lead to harsh things.
Here however is the heart of our differences.
All differences
All views
We must find a way to see life from others point of view.
Not judge on what we know/see.
RObert ANTI, Thinker 2 myself, are not creating shadow people I at least speak about the school room of my life.
Just one, true story, a village, could be any, called Paton place for 45 years.
5 Women all wed, all good looking all willing to entertain other men while husband is at work.
Best looking beats her man, and even sends him walking.
Name of suburb? well its nick name is above her street? home of 3 from that 5? *do not forget to put the toilet seat down Lane*
Women, some, pick soft men, to use and abuse them, such men exist, and some, one day, leave.
It is not defensible to even think only men are wrong.

Dear Belly,

If you re-read my posts on this thread I hope that
you will see that I am seeing things from various
perspectives and that I don't for one moment
deny the existing problem and its complexities.

However, I find it difficult when someone groups
all because of the few.

I find it difficult when someone uses sweeping statements
regarding people. Be they about men, women, religious
groups or whoever. It find it troublesome when the word
"some," is not prefixed in reference to these discussions.

There are women out there who don't blame all their problems
on every man. And there are men out there who don't blame
all their ills on every woman.

Lexi, this is a topic about the general state of play around social attitudes, not about every woman or every man. The fact that there are decent people is taken for granted. It's a shame that you seem to feel the need to make it explicit. Moreover, Belly's point is a good one. You have a genteel middle-class perspective, based on both your own predicpositions and the life you have lead. Many people, however, simply don't and even among those who do, it is all too common for the women to feel free to hit the men, secure in the knowledge they will restrain themselves from hitting back, as Mr Waterstreet pointed out in his column.

What do you think could be done to prevent that attitude from prevailing?
