Yes there are a lot of us men who think women are second class citizens but all you feminists who say women are better then men are just as bad. We have our obvious physical differences but when it comes to who’s smarter and more productive to society etc... You can't look at someone based on their gender...you have to judge that person as an individual and take into account their background and personal attributes and beliefs. I’m posting this just because in the women and gender studies section there are so many women who say that they are the superior gender. That may be true or untrue im not here to argue that but im just saying you can’t judge someone on whether they have a vagina or a penis. You extremist feminists are just as bad as chauvinistic men.(I know not all feminists think they are better then men just equals and this isn’t directed towards you) Agree? Disagree?Thoughts?

Ok, I cry about everything and I don't know why I do. It can be about anything that crosses my mind that happened years ago or whenever that's negative; I'll jusy cry about it. I've cried so much; I hate crying. Can anyone give me a reason to why I cry so much?

Is it true that some women take up prostitution because they like it, and not because of forced circumstances?

Many people say this, but is it actually possible to happen to a person? Is it reciprocated?

Or do you like it better when she pays her own way?

I should have made it clear that I was talking about money in my last question; you all gave good answers there, but you were talking about emotional support.

I know this is a rediculous question, and I probably know better than to think this way but I've always been somewhat of a hypochondriac, so here I am asking:

Sometimes when I am doing my math homework, I try to do the hardest problems in the text, the ones that involve hard thinking.. anyway, I find that when I am pondering these problems I start to literally feel preasure in my brain (maybe its because I make myself believe it) is this bad?

Ok guys, so most of the men on here hate "modern" feminists, those who believe that women are superior to men (god knows we have the right to, considering how men believed they were superior to women for thousands of years...)

My question is, do you just hate modern feminism and support traditional feminism, which wants equality for the sexes and gives women the same freedoms as men, or do you hate them both and think that women should go back to the kitchen?

I have very strange dreams, most of the time they involve me going on some sort of adventure or jouney. But no matter what my dream is of or who is in it, there is always one thing that is the same in every dream. For the past couple of years I've had this boy in my dreams. And as I get older so does he, he looks like he is a little older than me. I don't have a clue to who he is but he's always with me. Sometimes we're together, but other times we're just traveling together, or he just kinda passes through my dream. And over the years he's changed too. He's not only gotten older but somewhere along the way he got his eyebrow peirced. Honestly I don't know who he is, but he's always there. And I seem to always be more comfotable with him there. However, I do have sex dreams sometimes but never with him. I believe we've kissed a few times, but never anything more. He's just always there.

Anyone have any idea what this could mean or who he could be?

I want a more serious relationship with a guy I'm seeing now.

The problem is that since the beginning of this year my sex drive has practically disappeared.

But now that I’ve met someone I really care about it’s really bothering me… and I’m sure they must ask themselves questions.

He’s always been very nice about it… but how can I ask a guy to be my boyfriend (monogamous) if I can hardly have sex with him.

We do lots of foreplay, and I enjoy being intimate with him, I am very attracted to him… but I feel no desire, I can’t get aroused… I have to ask him to stop finally because I’m not turned on enough, the sex isn’t pleasurable.

We still get together, but I’m sure he sees other girls… which I understand.

I know sex is not all that matters, but to a degree, it still does matter.

I’m just very hurt about my situation… I don’t know how to talk to him about it.
What do I say? I have no sex drive?

He’ll think I’m not interested in him..He’ll think something is wrong with me…

Men, what would you think if you met a woman and you both had intimate relations and she wasn't further interested in you or wanted anything further(relationship for example).
Would you be pleased or would you have a negative opinion and see her as a whore?

i have always been this way but especially since i have a new higher paying job i have gotten worse. i buy something new almost every day. when im bored i go buy something, when i feel lonely i go buy something, when i get off work there is usually SOMETHING that i need to pick up on my way home. its not usually expensive things but still, little things add up. i cant seem to get the money i make into savings or to pay off debt, i have 4 credit cards that together add up to about $7,000 ,almost all of that $7,000 was spent in the past two years on bills when i didn't have the money for them and paid them with credit cards. i don't know what to do , is there some kind of place you can go like alcoholics do haha? seriously though what do i do about this? i am no longer getting into MORE debt but i only pay minimum payments usually so im never going to be on top like this.
what do i do to make myself stop buying everything i want all the time?

Why would a mother turn a blind eye to sexual abuse of her children? why would she constantly ignore her daugters telling her what is happening? Why would she choose to believe the perpertrator her husband and their father that the "girls are making it up".

I read some real life stories about child sexual abuse and could not imagine a mother not doing anything to prevent their father sexually abusing her daughters. What do you think?

Of all the different things out there to get involved in (homosexual acts, BDSM, and all kinds of fetishes) what do you think of Infantilism (diaper fetish). It's not widely know about, but nonetheless, what do YOU HONESTLY think of it? Right? Wrong? Don't care? Anything you care to comment on? Any questions you have on the topic?

Diversity is what make the world go round, and I was just curious as to the mainstream take on this fetish

Seriously, I accidentally posted a question in another section and got like 3 answers, all worthless. But a good question on GWS will get 20+ answers in the first hour, even in the middle of the night!

Plus, there's some crazy mysogenists, some crazy feminazis, and many sane people who actually put real thought into their answers. The trolls have had me in tears a few times. That shark guy kills me. And Rio has so many points she's probably eligible for Y! stock options by now.

Do all the other sections suck (by comparison), or have I just not found the good ones yet?

- male/female monkeys live in trees, but eventually decide to walk on land

- female monkeys learn that it is dangerous. Carrying a baby slows a woman down. Lions are everywhere.

- females start to mate only with males that show tendency to protect females. This eventually ensures males fall in love.

- monkeys become apes, then humans

- humans develop speech

- female humans learn that nagging is an effective way to ensure the males will work in their favor. Males are already in love and fem-nagging is like an emotional beating.

- feminism, also know as organized nagging, becomes common.

- years later, men start to retaliate against feminism.
