I understand exactly why you felt the need to clarify your remarks. ; ) (Now I suppose I'll have to clarify my agreement with you, otherwise it will be Daughter said she thinks girls should be neglected in favor of boys. LOL)

I think white males are discovering that competition isn't what they thought it was...they might lose.

The logical conclusion of this statement is that no competition exists among men, only some fake competition (to entice women?).

That most men simply lay down positions to other men - in some sort of collective. That only when women who are outside this collective enter the scene suddenly real (not fake) competition occurs.

The more I read of you the more I wonder what position in life you really have.

Did you read what happened in Jim's hometown? A Commissioner from the Human Right Commission in Fresno called Free Republic a violent Hate Group.

We may have to disclaimer everything we say!

how come girls still dont understand football?

A joke, I know, but it's a good question. I'm not a feminist, so don't read my post that way, please - but it's probably because they don't play football.

I was granted an exemption to this rule, having grown up in Wisconsin in the 1960s. : )

Survey says: Women have overtaken men at every level of education in developed world.

Translation: Woman are more amenable to being cooped up in sterile offices under florescent lights, breathing dead filtered air that may or may not have mold and other contamination. I compare them to battery hens content to lay eggs.

The problem with so many of these surveys is that they treat all college degrees as if they were the same. They aren't. So there are more women in college than men. Who cares? Huge numbers of women major in total BS liberal arts subjects, like sociology, anthropology, psychology, social work (yes, that is not just a major, but an actual school unto itself, on the same level as engineering or business) and the granddaddy of all BS, women's studies. Walmart has plenty of openings, so the economy will support these women, but they won't earn as much as people with real degrees, and NOW will continue to claim oppression. Here at the University of Texas, and at several other major universities whose demographic stats I have seen, men completely dominate enrollment in degrees like natural sciences, mathematics, and engineering, and have a smaller majority in law, pre-med, and business. The only halfway decent degrees women have more enrollment in are education and nursing. As long as these trends continue, men will continue to out-earn (on average) women in the workplace.

A guy throws a ball. Another guy catches it. A whole bunch of guys jump him. One guy breaks a leg. Another loses a couple of teeth. One has a concussion. What's to understand?

Men invent games in order to legally beat on each other and have a big party. Girls with pom poms beat their boom booms, and strut their stuff. Legal burlesque?? Life was man vs beast. Now, it's man vs ball. The boys have a great time in their "civil" world!! They amuse me!!

I won't be going to the picnic either, no...so I guess we'll both have to rely on Chad's version of events.

If we give him a job to do (taking pictures), he's far less likely to get himself in trouble making obscene gestures with food products and stuff. ; )

true dat!

Plus, take into account a man's natural aggressiveness put into pursuits other than the physical like scientific research, music, cooking, business, art, engineering, politics, etc., men will still be the movers and shakers of the world for good or ill. Heck, even gay guys are showing themselves to be better than women at fashion design and decorating.

Schools don't drug students, parents do.

Just say NO to drugging your kid.
