Can men respect women if they're trained to be perverts?

He makes some good points.

Speaking for myself, I can definetly love a woman who's been trained to be a pervert. (In fact I do, and I'm still training her!)

[DefCon]

I was not trained to be a pervert.
I am self-taught.

[SteveMcKing]

Never in history have women been so sexually exploited as they are today.

Like hell. I can't take anything he says seriously after making this statement.

[SouthernFreebird]

Alot of good points....and I'm a woman.

O'Reilly is no conservative. Never has been. Irrespective of this stuff, never will be. WND of all places should know this.

[Siamese Princess]

I think that he is spot on. Excellent article.

[Petronski]

Who needs training? I call it testosterone poisoning.

[Perdogg]

I am wondering if Mackris has a bod underneath all of the clothes. That wasn't my fault, I was trainned to say that!

I consider myself to be a Natural.

What I don't get is the incongruency of women.

One one hand they have more now than they ever have - they are open to explore different careers, they can make a lot of money, etc. They have proven that they are just as tough as any man in the work environment.

Yet, some of those same women seem to wilt if the conversation becomes off-color, or boorish. In times like this they revert to a 16th century 'delicate flower' posture - 'offended' by an off the cuff remark so much as to find the entire environement somewhat 'hostile' to them.

It's ironic that I think the average woman of the 1840s and 1950s, for example, appears to have been a whole lot tougher in matters like this. If a man began acting significantly less than a gentleman, a woman would quickly put him in place with a slap, and otherwise tell him that if he kept it up her brothers, boyfrined, or husband would come by and kick the crap out of him. Seems to me the pre-feminist woman handled these things a lot better.

You've come a long way, baby - wilting at the mention of a pee pee, pubic hair on a soda bottle, or heaven forbid, "I would have had a lot of fun with you two back in college!"

The thing that impresses me the most about the O'Reilly case is that it gives a ray of hope for getting off Fox News.

Here's one for our side, B...:

Personally, there is BS on both sides of the bed. Harassment and Greed are the bed fellows today. There are decent men and women as well; but everyone knows how to deal with this stuff by now and it is painful to have to keep reading about it. I doubt if there are any innocents on either side of this case. It is a matter of money and how much the lawyer can make.

[Paul Atreides]

Someone should tell him that most models/actresses are not forced to pose/whatever at gunpoint. Most of the time, a person is "exploited" because that person allows the "exploitation."

The feminazis did young women no favors by their silence over the Bubba/Monica affair.

[ml1954]

I believe a similar case can be made about the difficulties of life today in the USA for the average male.

Besides, isn't it odd that identical behavior by the same person on different days can be harassment on one day and welcomed on another, depending on how that person 'feels'. What kind of legal system bases the judgment of whether or not a crime has been committed on 'feelings'?

Like hell. I can't take anything he says seriously after making this statement.

Interesting documentary on the History Channel about Sex in the Civil War last night...FOURTEEN whorehouses on the current site of the FBI building in DC during the War; the site of the IRS was also a solid mass of bordellos.

Also read a bunch of letters from soldiers to their male friends (you normally only see the touching letters written to wives in documentaries)...hilarious....tons of references to how much f***ing they were doing, etc.
