Unfair And Unbalanced
Allan,
As much as we would like to subscribe to the ‘equal’ but ‘different’ concept as re M vs F, it is not so and we all know it.
Were it to be the case, we’d have no qualms regarding women in combat, or allowing women to chose WTF they do with their own bodies.
This is a patriarchal society and as such, leans heavily toward leniency when such as this comes to fore.
Men cannot have it both ways. Sorry. That is SO last millenia.
Either they are to be cherished, put on pedestals, and held to a different standard OR they are at the mercies we try so hard to protect them from.
If you stop and think about it for just a second ... women give birth. Birth=Life.
When we stop making allowances for them, we stop the species.
It’s a helluva choice, I know, but I’d rather women get away with more than men, than to have them endure the harshest reality of all ... survival.
We cannot survive as a species unless women are somewhat protected/sheltered.
In spite of what is the current wisdom du jour.
Sooo ... amigo, look at it this way ... women cannot be held to the same standards as men. If that ever happens ... they will perish faster than men. And if THAT happens, well, just look at China today and in 10 years. Or India in 15. There will be a demographic impossible to address with any social engineering.
Conventional wisdom has it that in 10 years there will be 25 men for every 1 woman in China.
The reprocussions of that will be ...
1. Chinese men will venture outside China and steal women. THIS is happening NOW.
2. So many single males will band together and form ... ‘gangs’ for want of a better word. Though a much BETTER word would be HORDES. Ring a bell?
3. Without the responsibility of protecting women, men will become ever more removed from those things that elevate us as a species and revert to that from which we have only just emerged ... animals.
...You know it. I know it. Anybody with a brain knows it.
So quit yer ‘how come THEY get away with it’ rant. Better you should demand that they do and pray this passing fancy of ‘equal but different’ is just that ... passing.
Oh man, I KNOW I am going to catch some serious fire over what I just said. But ya know what? I’m right.
Fire away!

Steel, you are full of shit, as usual. Who told you that you’re right? Hell, you can’t even spell the big words correctly, pardner.
Hmmm ...
Now Allan, if I didn’t know you, I’d say that was a typical leftwing response to a position.
You were going to address my comment weren’t you?
I can’t imagine THE SKIPPER just flinging some shit and mocking without bringing some ... substance to fore.

Steel, before you try to pick a fight with me by accusing me of a “leftwing response” after you turned your comment into a personal attack on me in the first place .... remember where the fuck you are. You’re in my house here, buddy. Behave .... or else.
Oh Allan,
What? Bad day amigo? I ain’t picking a fucking fight. I said ‘IF I DIDN’T KNOW YOU BETTER’ up front and at the get go.
Personal attack? C’mon man, you oughta know me better’n that.
Chill my friend ... get mellow.
I’ll be good ... I promise.

Although this retard is clearly beyond any socially redeeming value the only crime she has committed is that of making false statements, which she recanted within hours of making them. She has the right to disappear if she wants to. There is no way you can make it illegal for someone not to disclose their whereabouts at all times. She is a ridiculous jackass though. Same would be true for a man. Shit, we probably do it just as often if not more. Only thing is, nobody cares enough to look for us.

Well, the only thing I have to say is that I will pay BIG money to my daughter to go before a judge to get married. Huge weddings are nothing but a source of stress and a waste of money. They should have big divorce parties instead. Wife - to the right.. Husband - to the left. Then the guests could cheer the court and sit around the courthouse steps and have BBQ and beer after the divorce is decreed and wonder about the village.
God, I’m cynical. OH well.....

Cat, once again we are on the same page (stop it already...or you’ll have me start questioning my conservative credentials *grin*.) You are right she does have a nice “rack” (and it has been suggested in some quarters, it was not the original equipment btw). In fact the local afternoon talk radio jock suggested, her “frontal enhancements” ™ were the real reason the space case of a fiance was still wanting to have anything to do with her. (Which would or should become the classic example of the “little head” doing all the thinking for the “bigger head”....if those two get married, they should be forced to have both sets of tubes snipped...the fruit of that union..scares me and I’m fearless!)
And I would love to see Ms Jolie do the screen adaptation....mmmmmmmmmmmm *eye candy* [/homer]
