My friend described the woman he has been seeing in these words: "She isn't greatly built or what would be considered beautiful---she is nice looking but in a plain beauty way."

And if they do, does this compromise who they are? If a woman likes to have unconventional sex that she enjoys and not coerced into, is it still degrading.

I think it is about time to elect a woman president, but I would hate to see Bill skulking around the Whitehouse looking for used chairs to steal or random women to grope while his wife is busy with affairs of state. Try to think of some names of women that are not widely known, but none the less represent woment who have a proven record of accomplishment in their respective fields.

And is it possible for someone who is say a size 8,10,12,14 to be a sex symbol? If Angelina Jolie was say a size 10 - would she still have been able to gain all her admirers and status?

Hes always been curious to try my pantyhose. He has always complimented me and paid extra attention to how my legs look when I wear my sheers to the office for work or out for dinner etc. Part of me was unsure about letting him try at first. But I'm also thinking why not, if hes so curious, let him give it a try to experience how it feels. I'm really glad that hes confided in me with this, so Im leaning towards letting him do it as a reward in my own mind for being so open with me. Hes a wonderful husband and we have been married for about 9 years, and hes been really supportive of my feelings and career, etc. Just wondering what some of the other women out there think of letting him try or have similar expereinces.

We live in a society in which we are told that women and men are equal. If this is so, why is it socially acceptable that women could hit men and not vice-versa? If you think about it, this law has an allegorical meaning in it that states that women are beneath men and needs this social law. What do you think? Is this social law sexist?

I was just wondering what most women would think of this if their husband did it it. Does it make any sexual difference at all? Does it feel any different?

and principles of feminism? I don't see much understanding of these subjects in most women I know (and these are educated women). Is my experience out of whack with reality or is there a problem with education here?

As compared to men, women have historically spent more time with their families, worked few hours, suffered less job related stress, enjoyed better health longer, AND lived longer.

But, that trend is changing, especially in countries where feminism has (largely) eliminated traditional gender roles.

Women are spending more time working, are more often in senior management positions, are under increased work related stress, and are thus spending less time with their families (can't be in two places at once).

Does this promote better health and well being for women (and men)?

Note the below findings from Sweden (the global leader in gender role androgeny).

My friend has been seeing a woman who told him she has "separation anxiety, " as diagnosed by her psychologist, who specializes in relationships. Is this just a ploy to keep a sensitive, caring man from leaving her? (She has a sad history of breakups initiated by the men, not by her.)
She's highly educated, has a job that takes her all over the world, and is away from her children (15 and 13) for months at a time. She's also strong-willed, has very firm opinions, and has been advised by her psychologist to be more "pliable" and less insistent on her own way in relationships. Is it possible that a person like this truly does suffer from "separation anxiety?"
