i am sick and tired of the media BS spouted out for the last 20 - 30 years. man are primitive, their only motivation is sex. etc. while the females have supposedly noble reasons for their actions. BULL SHIT
While I agree to this, my take is that this has transpired because women have been so trod upon for centuries. It an unfortunate result of having had little to no rights for most of the ages. Some cultures and time periods have been better than others, but if you think back just one hundred and twenty or so years, you will see that even in this "modern" time period, in countries including the US and Britain, women could not own property and could not vote. Please keep in mind that these countries were likely the "best case scenarios", although I do not know enough of that time period to be certain how women were treated in, say, Asia, (but I have my suspicions....)
Hell, just look back at the WTS' views on women even 30 years minutes ago
That stated, I must add that I absolutely do feel for men. They are not "the enemy". In my teens and early 20s, I was short sighted enough to think this was the case. Now I realize that women and men are both, first and foremost, humans trying to survive in a sometimes hostile world. Our perceived (and real) differences can sometimes be frustrating, (but as just as often refreshing and enjoyable) but neither sex is superior, and certainly no one sex can lay claim to being more moral, more noble, more enlightened.
