My husband says men think about sex every 28 seconds.

It sounds to me like you should do more and think less [just being considerate, don't get all testicle] ;op

You're wrong. Employers look for military service or college to show a person's mettle. Ask me how I know, g'head...

Ok? How...

Plumber, electrician, mechanic, etc.... or, paper-pushers?

Okay; don't be so grumpy.

I think there's a different way women with business savvy are referred to, and I would hardly describe it as complimentary, so YOUR attempt at heartstring-pulling oh-say-can-we-see anything you want to be you can in America is off the mark, too.

I know from being on both sides of the desk at various times, same as the hubster. And as a matter of fact, he is an electrician.

There was a time, before we met, that I was a hairdresser on the west coast and making some big money, so I don't particularly care where it comes from as long as there's enough to pay the bills and have a little left over.

By Froufrou,

Gotta find someone with more intellectual curiosity about the conditions in which little boys are conditioned to be genderless or at best "nice guys".

Look around in your church congregation or any other assembly; all you see are "nice guys" or men trying to be "nice guys". Take a closer look, they are bored to death. Are you someone who aspired to marry just a "nice guy" and raise your sons to be just "nice guys"? If you are truly honest, your dreams were to meet a knight that would do battle for you. Not just a "nice guy" who started out in boyhood doing tea parties.

Your characterization of successful career women speaks to your perceptions than to reality. Do you not see the poor attempt of shaming my idea of "get a worthy job" as part of devaluing masculinity? You surely must have mistaken me for your husband.

I won't stoop to name calling or gender-bashing like you have done here. You have no business remarking on my husband or my value of him, NONE. I have neither invited nor encouraged you to do so. You are inexplicably rude in your comments, and entirely TOO personal.

And as for "MY" characterization of career women, it is not mine, and you have not effectively denied its existence.

You are not worth any more of my highly valuable time.

Buh-bye, [insert expletive of your neanderthal choice here.]
