It's their fatal mistake. Because, as they strip away the things men strive for, they erode the very foundations that built the boardroom, bedroom and government. What will they replace it with when the men will no longer do the work?


I suppose the men will all starve if they cease working.

What nonsense! What whining! What UNMANLINESS!

What woman wants a man who tells her, you go be ignorant, let me do all the thinking, and I'll be happy, because unless I get MY way, I'm going to sit in the corner and pout? And maybe stamp my feet, too!

You're missing the point. The point is, what man is going to be interested in striving and working 40, 50, 80-hour weeks -- for nothing? For the honor of having the end-results of all his work taken away when the wife decides she feels unfulfilled? Men will start taking a pass on that game. In fact, many already have.

BTW, are you sure you're not Lorianne in another personna?

No... In that case, the woman finds herself talking to the spot in the room where the man used to be... and won't ever be again.

It's a curious fact of life: a man can almost always find a woman willing to put up with him. And if he can find one, he can find another.

I don't mean to say that's a good thing; it's just an observation.
