To me nothing looks sexier in the proper casual context than a womyn in realy cheap flip flops with an awesome pedicure .

How many womyn are aware of this ? I know you buy shoes for yourself and to impress other womyn .

IIf you want to look sexy for a guy tho nothing screams sexier than the bikini for the feet we call flip flops .

I know you cannot wear them to all social occasions but when you can it realy does get some of our motors running so to speak .

Just hope that if you were not aware of this now you are .

So in your opinion ladys which is sexier the 1.99 flip flop or the 200dollar pair of shoes ?

It seems to me that more men watch porn than women, and that most women find it disgusting. But is that a myth? Do women enjoy porn as much as men? Also, do women like to watch it alone, or would they rather watch it with their partners?

For some weird reason 75%-80% of the converts to Islam in America and Europe are women. Most of these women enjoy the rights they have here because of the secular constitution our nation provides. While women in Islamic rule( shariah constitution) have very little rights.
I have seen many white men complain about this trend. But we should promote these women to convert rather than harass them. Think about it they are indirectly giving us more rights to control them. If Muslims become a majority Shariah law ends up being the law, that is a given and all Muslim strive for Islamic rule. We can basically tell women they can't have abortion, We can basically control our daughters our wives. Let's be honest we can't tell women what we want these days because they have their own mind. We cant tell them to give up Islam, because it their right to practice it. So instead of fighting it lets just go with the flow because ultimately we benefit. What do you guys say

Personally, I would have loved to have a man support me, while I raise the children, cook for him and, attend to his every need. Now I feel like I don't even have the option, because of women's lib. I don't look foward to the day when I have children, but have to hire a daycare provider to raise them, and work full time, and also take care of the house when I come home, because men aren't willing to support their wives anymore. It seems like women have twice as much work as before, and men have been let off the hook. Does anyone else feel this way?

I now that in abortion you kill the child but that is the mothers choice. what if she was raped and she is in her teens and still wants to go to school but she is raped and doesnt want to raise this child. and what if a women who finds out that her baby might have a decise of some sort or is retarted and she doesnt want her child to go threw that in it's life. I know that they could put the child up for adoption but what if she doesnt want to do that i know that it would be better but it is her child and her body and her choice. do you believe in abortion or not i dont i feel that it is her choice and not someone elses.

Men are more likely to want to marry women who are their assistants at work rather than their colleagues or bosses, a University of Michigan study finds.

Brown and Lewis found that males, but not females, were most strongly attracted to subordinate partners for high-investment activities such as marriage and dating.

"Given that female infidelity is a severe reproductive threat to males only when investment is high, a preference for subordinate partners may provide adaptive benefits to males in the context of only long-term, investing relationships---not one-night stands."

Sorry, feminists looks like biology trumps misguided politics every time.

In America there are high school and college massacres constantly. Do you think a greater introduction of feminism would calm down these disenchanted young men?

Being a woman encompasses many different things and every woman is different.
So why are some men under the impression that they can be strong and have the right to voice their opinions and it's all good, but women can't be strong, for fear of being labelled unfeminine and unlady-like?
The definition of a lady is-
Quote-
A well-mannered and considerate woman with high standards of proper behavior.
A woman regarded as proper and virtuous.
A well-behaved young girl.
(http://www.answers.com/topic/lady)
Even if women act in a lady-like manner as quoted above, it doesn't make any sense that because she voices her opinion or refuses to be submissive that she isn't a lady.
Thoughts?

If I'm generalizing too much then just ignore the question, but for the most part men communicate directly and women don't. Women expect you to guess what they feel, need, want, etc.. without saying it.

Now, this is supposed to me because of brain differences, but is it really? How hard is it to just SAY what you want?

Like if a woman is with her Bf or husband and she sees a necklace she wants, she will not say: "honey, I want you to buy me that necklace"... she will think that in her head but instead she will say: "I really like that necklace".

So ladies, especially feminists, why not just be direct? And if you choose to be indirect, why do you get angry at the man if he doesn't "read your mind"?

Why don't women say what they feel and what they want instead of just expecting people to know? What is the advantege to indirect communication?

Equality between men and women does not and will never exist because men and women are NOT equal!

Do you know what makes the above statement a fact?

A woman has a right to choose, but I wondered if you all think it's wrong if a woman in a stable relationship gets pregnant and decides to have an abortion but doesn't tell her boyfriend/husband.

The reason I ask is because one of my relatives actually got pregnant about five months into her relationship with her boyfriend and had an abortion but never told him. They later got married and had more kids and to this day he has no idea.

I do not want a holdout gun. I am not completely unfamiliar with firearms since I have used them many times, but I am by no means an expert. I want something easily concealable and something that's not too powerful for me.

Thank you for your help.

So I just bought eight packs of condom for my bf tonight. However, it seems that the clerk and the other customer just watched with some kind of suspicious and disbelief look.

What's wrong there? Or perhaps I'd rather ask my bf or my brother to accompany me next time I buy more condoms?

OK, this is probably WAY controversal.
I saw on the internet an article about a "beauty contest" being held at a nudist camp. They were judging - all females - in 4 catagories, based on age. None over age 30... Youngest group was not yet celebrating teenage, if you get my drift..

One one hand, I read that women want to stop being looked at as "sex objects," and being more accepted in society, and on another hand, I read that people who frequent nudist camps, do so "because everyone is equal."

What kind of "equal" or "acceptance" is being created when they have "beauty contests?"

I am not sure if the word "double standard" is appropriate here, but this does make me wonder....

OK, please try to control the anger. I would like to hear your calm and honest opinions.

hi! Just a quick question about the gulf war. Was it strictly speaking one of the first wars which saw women fighting shoulder to shoulder with men?
I'm talking about actual warfare and not some ancient one in a million warrior woman. If it wasn't, does anyone know which war would be more accurate?
Thanks guys!

Did you have a experience of showing your penis or private in public places? I ever show my penis on bus, parking lot,and when riding my motorcycle. This was exciting yet nervous. Anyway, such a behavior will be guilty based on lawful regulations?
