//Paul, how do you come up with these pearls of wisdom?// By having a clear open mind on the subject, and by feeling equal with women in society. ALTRAV, I freely share my wisdom with you.

Your above post clearly demonstrates what I have said, a dominated male who feels threatened by intelligent assertive women in your life. Do not despair, there are plenty of you in society. You will find these failures in any pub, crying in their beer about their faulted relationship, and how it was all the fault of "that bitch!" You put it in different language, but your sentiments are the same in general towards women in society.

Of course you can attack me for, "taking the side of the enemy", and that is how many of the degenerative males react to those, male and female, who point out their shortcomings.

Paul, I think you are being driven by your beliefs. In reading your last post it is now obvious that you actually don't read other posts but simply keep pushing your point of view. If you did read my last post you would see that your last comments are in no way related to what I said. No one is being dominated as we both don't drink,(at all) we have no idea what goes on down the pub. Apparently you do so we are to assume that your last post was actually referring to yourself. If you had read my last post you would see that the missus took on her natural and intended role as mother and carer without discussion or co-hersion from me or anyone else. We both knew our role and responsibilities in life. She knew that SHE was the one to best care for a child in it's early years of life. I knew my place, to provide for them and protect them. Why you and others like you mock and knock men for being men and women for being women, is beyond reason. A womans physiology is all about child birth and nurturing, and absolutely nothing to do with 'careers'. The sooner women realise this the sooner we can start turning things around for the better. I'm sorry but for women to rise, men have to fall. You are living proof of this. Role reversal is a sick and dangerous folly driven by misguided women. If they want a career, don't have kids. Try as they may, they can't have it both ways without them paying for it in other ways. In hind-sight, women look back and see that it was too high a price to pay for trying to go against nature.

ALTRAV,

Could you just slow down a bit and separate your sentences?

It would make your posts more comfortable to read.

Is Mise, thanks for that. I have been told before, but it seems I try to get my thoughts down as quickly as I can. In doing so I don't realise I'm making it seem like one l..o..n..g sentence. I will have to keep it in mind, and if I stray, someone will put me right again I'm sure.

I've got some questions for you - and I ask that you be honest
in answering the questions.

1) If given a choice who would you prefer to be your cardiologist
(heart specialist)
a male or a female? Both are equally qualified and experienced.

2) What about the party leader of the political party you
support?

3) What about the Prime Minister of our country?

4) What about the nurses looking after you in an aged care
facility - male or female?

5) What about your barber/hairdresser?

6) What about your dentist?

7) What about your GP?

Males and females get the same educations, work in the same
professions, they pay the same taxes, therefore shouldn't they have
the same rights in politics, executive positions, or professions?
So why the discrepancies?

Foxy, for me it as follows
1,2,3 neutral, 4 F, 5 & 6 N and 7 M.

I couldn't care if we had all males or all females running the country, it's just that history shows that the majority of female ministers/leaders don't have a very strong track record. Just saying!
