Your responses are fascinating. I could sit here and try to figure you out all day.

I've read Nick's postings on this thread, and he's never accused you of advocating matriarchy, saying society is in good shape, or whining about what happened to yourself or friends, as far as I could notice. I, on the other hand, have noted (see post 109, this thread) where on other threads you've gone on about things that have happened to you.

All Nick is going on about is that this current society's tendency for marriages not lasting, kids growing up without day to day contact with their fathers, and lots of men seeing their stuff go away in the aftermath of divorce, does not make for a healthy society.

Just because people disagree with you, does not automaticly mean they "hate women". This dialogue is like dialogues with some African-Americans, where the cry of "You're a RACIST" is the standard line when the other party doesn't have a reasoned response to an argument undercutting his ideological position. It is an attempt to shut down discussion and divert it into name calling.

Perhaps you cannot read well. How would you interpret ND's post as follows, addressed to me:

And to you this sounds like I hate women. Instead of futzing up this thread with your personal injuries, and individual examples of 'he done her wrong,' how about lifting your sights a bit... above youself, above what happened to your friend Suzie, and look at the big picture for a change. Your culture is going out of business. Do you care?

=>I've read Nick's postings on this thread, and he's never accused you of advocating matriarchy, saying society is in good shape, or whining about what happened to yourself or friends, as far as I could notice.

You did read his above passage, didn't you?

=>Your responses are fascinating. I could sit here and try to figure you out all day.

It must be difficult for you to accept that there are women who are linear, rational thinkers, believe in personal responsibility, and actually believe they are human.
