Due to the increasing population of the world, we should have compulsory sterilization of EVERYONE over the age of 25 AGREE? (not that it matters).

Over the past two years, my boyfriend has been over- domineering and chauvenistic. I have started working out and challenged him to a wrestling match and I beat him! The bet was that if he lost, he'd wear panties for a day. No biggie, but he couldn't stand getting beat by his girlfriend so he wanted a rematch. Double or nothing. Well. I kept beating him and beating him and I had to keep adding to the bet. By the end of the night, he owed me four months of serving me, dressed in drag. A dress, bra, panties, makeup, stockings, high heels... the works! I had a purse picked out for him and among the outfits I have picked out for him to serve me in are a pink playboy bunny outfit, french maid outfit... basically all of the stuff he's made me wear for the past 2 years.

My plans we all for naught however since he backed out.

Now, I know of a way to FORCE him to carry out the bet, but I don't know if I should. On the other hand, he has a whole....

1. not shaving your legs
2. short hair
3. fashion industry + feminists = secret plot to turn men gay. think i'm being paranoid? just look at fashion models (tall, broad shoulders, anorexic, small breasts and no body fat, undefined waist, very androgynous looking). This is NOT my or any man's ideal woman.

apart from this one they all look like trannies

4. muscles (why do women who have 6 packs describe themselves as "athletic and toned" disgusting)
5. no makeup/high heels are they are "degrading" to women.

so there you have it folks. the feminazis not only want women to act like men, but also look like men. sad.

My friend and I are having a debate about whether or not women get offended when men stare at their breasts. I don't mean in conversation but say you're walking down the street and the people walking by are looking at your chest. I walk past a lot of women on my way to and from work at the train station and I can't seem to help but look at their chests. I try not to stare in the hopes of not getting caught looking and offending anyone but I just love to look.

that women do not really want the bad boy...she wants the guy with confidence in himself (extremely sexy). This is often mistaken for arrogence ( a fine-lined difference). The jerks will score, but briefly and with drama. Ladies with knowledge of this find the confident factor in jerks to be attractive, not the jerk..

Both sexes need time and age to filter which is which, but I speak the truth.

I'd like to hear what feminists think of as the eventual future state of things in occupational fields that women dominate, such as elementary education, or nursing, etc. Will an effort eventually have to be made to get an equal number of males in there with a kind of affirmative action? Or will we continue to pick proportionally from applicants as they come, and just see if things even themselves out, the way men seem to continually dominate certain things like the military?
I know it's not a high priority today, but I'm curious.

They said that women and men are very different. Even in languages, there are lots of trite, and sometimes unfunny, jokes to testify it. But... if in those jokes there were something truer?

Try to imagine that one day, effectively, men and women starts writing and talking different languages, the men's language intellegible to women, the women's language intellegible to men. Every man's spoken and written words are understood only by other men, every women's spoken and written words are understood only by women.

It would be the true end of the world and everything? It would change a lot of things? Is there anyone able to describe life in such a world?

Men are about 1/2 the population. Some of us really are trying to gain and give insights. Also, if men really are in power, shouldn't you be interested in the perspective of those in power? I'm not talking about feminists that question men's perspectives, I'm referring to feminists that disregard men's perspectives. Isn't it counterproductive to do this?

They say their "straight", (not even bi) but then say that male sexuality & anatomy is a turn off, or not as much of a turn on as the female anatomy.
If you call yourself straight, but are not into your lovers body, wouldnt you be better off to just masturbate?
Is this why people have sex with the lights out?

My adult son and daughter are unemployed. She gets lots of attention and goes out on dates and no one gives her grief, but people are always rude to my son and get on his back for not working. Is this a double standard (he lives in our basement)

I am 25 yrs old, but in my age group I find women to be too stuck-up, reserved and very demanding. However, the younger women (in their late teens) whom I have met, I found them very well-behaved, polite, friendly and attractive.

Is it just me, or do other men feel the same way as well?

My friend says she won't go out with any because in her words they are "low caste". Is this common?

What do you think of a 43 year old gay man, having unprotected sex [OR purposely sabbotaging the condom] with anyone, and not disclosing that he is HIV positive?

This man is really angry & hurt, and admitted that he "wants others to suffer" like he is.

Also, is this true - he tells me that he is NOT required by law to disclose!!

WTF??? Isn't this pre-meditated murder??

Over all the countries, female assaulting males overall 31.6%, and men assaulting women at 24.4%. Severe assaults: women assaulting men at 10.6%, and men assaulting women at 7.6%.

This is not intended to distract from the fact that women should not be assaulted, and measures should be taken against such behavior. Besides changing sexist organizations that protect women only, ... what else can we do?

Not saying it should or shouldn't be, and I get the history, but why are dom vio academic studies so closely related to gender studies, why not psychology, psychiatry, sociology, law, or criminal justice?

I've always been curious why gender academia seems to focus on this issue more than the other social sciences/academic disciplines.

Your thoughts?

I've seen 2 questions today regarding this, one asking about men's "pink flag" reaction to a woman indicating she is a feminist, the other dictating how men are so fervently unattracted to powerful and successful women.

In my eyes this is the patriarchy at work, "Honey don't hold those beliefs, or your stock goes down"

As if our stock should be determined by men who should dictate what IS and what IS NOT attractive.

Why do you get to decide what is or is not?

Either way...Why on earth should we give a rats a$$ what attracts you?

Should men adhere their lives and beliefs simply because that's what attracts women?

Serious answers please

The state of Virginia's social services department recently passed a law asking men to voluntarily notify the state when they have had sex with a woman, so that if in the event of pregnancy and adoption, the state will have record of potential fathers and be able to notify the man so that he may consent to adoption of his child.

An interesting side note of this is that the child support offices will have access to the records although they will not establish paternity.

Another interesting thing is that "fornication -- sex between unmarried adults -- is a misdemeanor in Virginia. So I guess by asking men to register, the state is also asking them to cop to a crime -- rarely enforced, but nonetheless, a crime."

"If fathers don't file the paperwork, they give up their right for the state to inform them about a possible adoption or if they've lost their parental rights."

"If the form contains the address of the woman, she will be notified."

What are your thoughts on this?

i was just wondering why they feel that their time is best spent by spreading hate & ignorance, & trying to hurt people. to be honest, i just roll my eyes at them. but isn't there something more constructive they could be doing, because all they really acheive is to make themselves & that which they represent look really bad... are they PURPOSELY trying to help the side that they say they oppose ?
