One-woman chorus of “EEEEEEEW!” coming from the boring but prolific suburbs of Charlotte, NC.

Feminism is a great evil. Pushes abortion, homosexuality, and the emasculation and irresponsibility of men.

Men want women, women want money. The rich bitch syndrome throws a monkey wrench in the machinery.

On Valentines Day I do something really special, I get my own beers.

*snicker*

I do laundry and change diapers and clean up cat spews and drive kids around, like any other day.

I told my husband long ago that I didn’t expect him to do anything particular for Valentine’s Day. His coworkers are always astonished, as they struggle to generate “romance” for their “partner.” It’s a family tradition that we don’t “do” commercial holidays. We live on our own calendar, with special days like Lee-Jackson Day and Our Lady of Guadalupe.

Romance isn't something you "struggle to generate".

At least, not with any likelihood of success. It's a lot more fun (IMHO) when done unexpectedly and for no particular reason.

I agree.

And I don’t like it when someone who’s trying to sell something presumes to tell me what I should want and when. I get my back up and say, “Freep that, turkey!”

Do guys really do this?

Some do. Some actually put the seat back down on the toilet bowl. The problem is that culture has trained women to be suspicious and unappreciative, as men are easily replacable... even unrequired, hence the increasing number of families consisting of kids being raised by single moms or paired up clamlickers.

Yeah, if women insisted that men “perform” like porn stars, we would all be walking around depressed.

Don’t be fooled.

Men had no problem with women putting out for no money. They are driven by sex.

Prostitutes at least get something for it. I say they’re morally superior to true whores, never mind the men who screw any old time.

And I see men keep blaming women, just like they did LONG ago.

No, sounds like they’re saying if he wants some he shouldn’t do that. He should make her have to pursue him.

I wonder if this research factors in tiredness. A woman who is working and raising kids can get awfully tired, and that affects everything.

Because when I'm tired, I just can't get hungry...

People use the same excuse for not exercising. Its a handy plausible excuse, but the truth is that they just don't want to exercise.

If you can think of a hundred reasons "why you aren't in the mood to do something" then I can assure you of one thing, you have no real desire to do that thing.

He doesn't do rose petals but my DH does draw me a bath with candles when I have had a bad day.

Kinda sad that it would be viewed as an "obligation".

Kind of sad that the prevailing thought at the time was that "ladies" don't enjoy it. So if your wife enjoys sex with you obviously she is a whore.

Some of that lingers.

I’d love to see the “before” picture for that one. Yikes!

You have never been to tired to eat?

I guess you have never been truly tired.

Nope, 48 hours wasn't enough to kill my desire to eat, 48 hrs wasn't enough, 72 hours wasn't enough either. But then, I wasn't looking for reasons to justify not eating.

I am often too tired to eat, and I love food.
