a quick bit before I run off to work -

DS briefly stopped by to state " what about men being insecure to allow women to have power? " - to this I merely say that I would not chalk insecurity up to JUST MEN'S FAULT. Take - for instance - you get an abused child from an abusive relationship and give him/her to a good family without abuse or any abuse related activity - the child will most definately be insecure. always waiting to be hit. always waiting to be yelled at. always waiting for " ITS YOUR FAULT " - reguardless if it was or not. From your stance, you're saying that it is the abused child's fault for being insecure.

What I am proposing is that men are insecure BECAUSE of women and their wiley ways. They are insecure because women are generally insane. Which would then again take you to my previous post. So by blaming men's insecurities for the reasons that women aren't in power, I believe is just the same as blaming women themselves. Women make men insecure. Simple fact.

And those that are secure? Oh - womanizing pussy-mongrels, assholes, and the ones that women will leave a 'good guy' for because the 'good guy' is too much of a sap and will do anything they say. " nice guys finish last " so it goes. I have a striking thought that women want assholes and to be treated badly. But that, ah - is a different post/debate all together.
