women are stonger than men. and I say that as a guy. As a father who watched child birth in progress. but its not just child birth, women are stronger overall

Then you've had the misfortune of knowing only weak men, of which there are plenty in this world these days.

Women seek to marry the perfect man then spend every waking moment trying to change him into someone else.

-—I advise my friends who want to marry, look for someone who if they were the same sex, would be a best friend.-—

No wonder men run from marriage.....my wife of 30 plus years is my best friend but not even remotely like her best girlfriend...

It is a much deeper relationship than any girlfriend she ever had

Being a husband means she is “bone of my bone flesh of my flesh” we are so intertwinned by love commitment service support a mere freindship would be an insult

[tal hajus]

That was also the episode that Elaine “danced” in. Hilarious!!

[Popman]

Women are designed by God to give birth....that doesn't mean they are stronger than men just able to bare children

If men had to give birth our birthrate would be near zero and the green wackco would celebrate in their caves

Each sex has a role in the life cycle....each have their own stenghts and weakness

“A man marries a woman hoping she’ll never change. A woman marries a man hoping to change him.”

Behind every would-be successful man, there is a woman to constantly publicly remind him, he is inadequate.

Then there are those of us men who have rescued women one to many times just to see them ride off into the sunset with a thug or creep

Being the nice guy has done squat for me

I've been single for 35 years, since my 2nd marriage. I don't expect that to change any time soon.

You can sit and argue all day long about the men vs. women issue, but as far as I'm concerned, men are from earth and women are from who knows where.

Ne'er the twain shall meet.

Please don’t give up your gentlemanly ways, crazyhorse691! Real women appreciate a door being held open for them. I have taught my son to hold open a door, give his seat to a female etc... A man who respects a woman (IMHO) shows true class, appreciation and intelligence. They are gems among rocks.

That’s why I met one in the Philippines, old school women there.

[Bulwyf]

the cattle prod is a fantastic idea, in this case it’s ok to not listen to your wife heh.

*disclaimer* I never said this.

Then there are those of us men who have rescued women one to many times just to see them ride off into the sunset with a thug or creep. And when that relationship inevitably goes into the dumps, who do they call? Yup, us men who saved them before. Of course, at that point, they’re such a wreck that they bring nothing to the table but pain and dependency.

There are some women who are excited by "bad boys", and who keep regular guys hanging in case they need anything. They are the flip side of the men who are "only interested in a quick lay" -- the women who string "nice" guys along.

However, the best thing a perpetually single person cvan do for themselves is focus on enjoying life and developing their talents.

I am not trying to proselytize but go to church. Let God guide you to the only true happiness.

Then why can't they kill spiders?

[wally_bert]

For the most part same here.

I gave up on playing the good guy, rescuer, white knight, etc years ago. All I ever got was burned and taken advantage of.
