Men are much more up front about their own, their friends, and their whole gender's bad behavior than women are. Ladies, you can prove it by your responses.

.....that overall, women are at least somewhat worse at communication (within romantic relationships) than men. I can see the eyes bugging out and the shoulders tensing up as you ladies type your responses, but hear me out. Of course, there are exceptions to this generality I've put forth, but too often, women do the equivalent of asking their man to bring a knife to a gunfight, when they are discussing the relationship/duties/money. Usually, the guy will be trying to be logical, and see where the reasonable responsibility lies. Whereas the woman, she's operating on a different set of values and, more importantly, standards. She's keeping score, but is less likely to factor in facts that the man brings up that might change that score. She wants the guy to read her mind. Bottom line, she expects her man to see things the way she does, when she knows he can't; whereas the man expects the woman to see things the way he does, because he knows she can, but won't at that time.

Don't you find the following statement absurd:

"He says he's threatened by her? He's a star athlete. She's 5-foot-2, I think, and 105 pounds," said celebrity New York divorce lawyer Raoul Felder, one of the attorneys representing Joumana Kidd.

If what he is claiming is true, it is disgusting that we still have this idea that women are not capable of terrorizing their husbands in the same way that men can terrorize their wives. Just because a man is bigger doesn't mean his wife cannot be abusive. Some men are just not violent, believe it or not, and are afraid to do anything because she will likely not be arrested or charged.

Here is an interesting survey - more than 60% of women say it's OK to hit your husband, and more than 35% have done so.

I am wondering how many women don't report a rape or sexual assault when they know the attacker whether it is a friend or relative.

I have a degree in information management so I am a smart guy. I am also a male feminist. I know I know calm down girls.

Unlike other men I listen when women tell me what they want and they tell me they want respect. Well I have the UTMOST respect for women.

I am appalled by some of the comments from tiny tiny weinered males on this board recently and would like to apologise for them. Not all men have weiners the size of these rude neanderthals.

Never fear ladies! My strength is not for hurting - it is for helping! I will protect you from the neanderthals and give you the opportunity to assess what a true man is like. If you like what you see don't hesitate to drop me an email. I promise I will not push you. If/When you want to make love to me that is your decision.

In the meantime I will be hear your guardian protector.

Isn't that what a real man is?

is it hat they are less rational and may actually sincerely believe something that is false, or is it because of their generally lower physical strength forces them to use more "passive aggressive" methods. Once again I said SEEM. please do show me where I'm wrong.

My new girlfriend slaps me on my forehead for no reason and when I ask her why, she says “why not”! Is this some kind of new MTV fad that I’m not aware of?

A couple of decades ago, people among which feminists, declared till death does us part is old fashioned and out of style. Now people primarly men I guess, say marriage is sooo yesterday not wanting to get married ever (it does not equal to beeing singel or sexless). Girls do you worry about marriage or could you just accept it as part of modern life to not get married to your partner or any partner ever ?

I was dating this woman who'd broken up with her man, who asked a friend of mine if she knew me and what I was like. She told him that if I was after his lady I was "probably going to get her" and I "work very fast." The dude stalked me for weeks and jumped on me at Happy Hour!! Why would my so-called friend tell a rejected man such things?

I've noticed in our workplace that two women can have the exact same idea, but if it is put forward by both, only the attractive looking one will get results. It seems to be the same everywhere. There's also no "solidarity" with the various women, they are constantly cutting each other to pieces. There sure seems to be some biases still alive.
