I'm not sure about the professional, successful thing. I'm a stay at home mom, as are lots of FReeper women. I think conservative women get along better with men in general because we have a strong set of morals, principles and beliefs that generally don't fit well with the "I need closure, I hear what you're saying and I feel that . . ., I can't infringe on my child's self esteem" group of women.

Many, many women are concerned with surface existence. Whatever is currently in Cosmo, Glamour, InStyle, People, whatever, is what they spend their time discussing. Who has the "cutest" clothes, who does your hair, let's do lunch, what color is that nail polish, puke, puke, puke.

Men, in general of course, are concerned with facts and history and world events and economics and discipline and things that go deeper than their hair color. And they are NEVER offended by even the dirties joke. Gotta love that.

Needless to say, I have never had a lasting friendship with a woman. Inevitably they go the poor pitiful me route with their husbands, or they think it's okay for their kids to throw a fit and get their way, or they start a competition of some sort. Fuggit. I like men.

I will say, however, that FReeper women seem to be some of the most level headed women I have met.

I'm a stay-at-home Mom myself and I consider it a profession. :-)

And what else needs to be said? You summed it up perfectly.

PS... What color nail polish is that?
Who does your facials?
Have you tried the new blah blah blah....

Well teeny, I knew I liked you for a reason. I am your FRiend, like it or not and you are mine.

We are cut from the same cloth, I think.
