Well tough question, what is "manly?" I hate the John Wayne types and if that is considered manly no thanks. I too like the fact that we can just be individuals in our society today. I hated how the society wanted their men to be "MEN" and their women to be little submissive "women"....the bottom line we are all individuals and I don't get why we have to be put in boxes?

Very well said notacaptive :This girl-punches-policeman hit everyone in an emotional place for a lot of reasons. I think you have been dismissive and not engaged on the discussion with the wisdom that you might have because you think physical and verbal put downs win the day. Use your experiences and your ability to speak in a better way. It would help. And you have been rude to other posters.

My heart bleeds for (This woman) the women.
by acolytes inwhen ever bethel is rang the sister answers and places your call with an experienced brother.. so today i rang the bethel and spoke to the receptionist.. i said my question was directed to her.
this was the tough question "can you imagine never having had a child and held that child in your arms.........the conversation progressed and the sister said "do you know how old iam.....".
to cut a long phone-call.

Very well said. The organization definitely takes dignity away from women for sure. One thing I noticed as a kid and the older I got the more disgusted I became. Nice to see such a compassionate post......makes me think there are some decent people out there.....sometimes when I read the posts on this board I often wonder.....

Yknot I agree it seems to me that thinkaboutit seems to really enjoy the fact that this girl got punched.....sometimes when I read the mysoginistic statements on this board I wonder why some left the organization......it truly would have been a paradise for them.....being Lord and Master over their woman and reminding her she is in subjection to them and he is her head......Just as when I read the society's publications and picked up on an undertone of disdain for women, I also get the same feeling when reading some of the comments on here......You know I have noticed that most people in our society will admit that racial prejudice exists and racial discrimination is a problem.....yet sexual discrimination seems to be the final frontier....people don't want to talk about it and admit it and then they don't want to take it seriously....anybody who uses the term"that bitch deserved to get punched in the face" seems to have some issuess......

I always hated how women were treated and viewed, it just never felt right to me. I remember when we first started going studying the old family life book and how demeaning it was to women. I was 12 and remember getting so mad. Also the molestation cover ups got to me. Tell your wife to put in the society's CD and type in keyword rape.....all I can say is wow. Two qoutes from the watchtower back in the 70's really bothered me:
1. WOMEN ARE TO BLAME FOR RAPE SINCE THEY USE THEIR NEPHEWS/COUSINS AS SEXUAL PLAYTOYS.......WTF?
2. They instructed women to treat their rapist with respect....again WTF?
