Laz pulls that joke off better than I do

Laz should have a disclaimer

Exactly. It amazes me that some posters here fail to realize that dating and relationships are a two way street. Both sides are so busy ‘getting even’.

LOL! Actually one of the most interesting things Malcolm X wrote, was that if a woman provides a home for a man, and (NOT politically correct) treats him like a king in his castle, that he'll never stray. Men DO like to come home to a good looking, sexually appealing wife who can cook and maintain a household. Sorry, but true.

Why go out for hamburger when you have steak at home?

Not “liberating”; turning them into libertines. And the women, too. Feminism started from envy. And went downhill after that. It’s pure evil.

First and foremost, I cannot believe that none of you have anykind of meaningful relationship. Some have hinted of it, but none defined. I thank God everyday for my wife. She loves, cares, and adores me. I, in turn, love, care, and adore her. We are by no means a perfect couple. She wakes me in the morning, and kisses me goodnight. She curses me in the morning and kisses me in the evening. I’ve never had better....well I won’t go there.

Thank you God for blessing me (and cursing me sometimes,LOL) for this beautiful woman.

secondly, I can’t believe I’m up so late!

Not only do they like it, they respect it. There's nothing quite like a woman who can take care of the kids and make things run like a clock.

It takes skill and a smart man knows it and appreciates it.

You got it. I have seen more young women live with a guy for a while, the guy leaves for greener pastures, and she is left wondering why he didn’t marry her.

it was about empowering less attractive women

pretty women have always been empowered and transcendent

I for one am glad your offspring are perfect makes life so easy I am jealous of you / s

Not at all. I have no illusions about being perfect. My only point is that we can't sit back and blame the upcoming generation for their faults without accepting at least some of the responsibility for them. Maybe we didn't participate in ruining this culture and destroying the roles of men and women in our society, but what did we do to stop it? What did we do to promote the healthy and strong cultural values? We get on FR and bitch about how the government schools are corrupting our youth, but what have we done to correct it? Only the homeschoolers have actually done something. It makes no sense to me to ridicule the young for their faults without realizing that, as the older generation, we have failed.

Philippians is one of my favorite books. We had the first two chapters memorized at one point ... I think I’ll make committing the whole thing to memory my project for Lent!

I’m reminded of the lines of Robert Burns, about “seeing ourselves as others see us.” If we all looked at ourselves with illusion, we’d have fewer complaints about others!

I don’t know. It does seem to me that many of today’s young women have different goals than I did, but that’s really the extent of my awareness and understanding of this issue.

Look at the history of it, and how it was presented in the 1700’s.

It was more about having multiple sex partners for men.

Imho, Charlie is bi-polar. That’s an entirely different issue.

"If he’s in his 50’s, ugly as hell, but RICH, he’ll have his pick of the litter."
If he wants to stay rich, he'll let somebody else pick up the litter.

Over 50, he can have a vasectomy and decline to marry. She can live in his mansion as long as she behaves. He just needs to be careful of not letting the arrangement be considered a common-law marriage, and be careful of "palimony".

That doesn't prove women don't want casual sex. It proves that women are smart enough to know that situation proposed is very dangerous.

It proves that you have to buy a woman a few drinks and pretend to find them interesting first, whereas a man is willing to skip all that and just drop trow.

haha Some freepers are perfect, perfect families, perfect jobs, perfect healthcare, not to mention great looking and in fabulous shape.

You have been around here long enough to know that.
I wanna ask them (if you are so perfect, why do you feel the need to brag about it and and attempt to dress down your fellow man in a public forum?)
They should out volunteering nd staying on top of perfection instead of showing off online
