"I didn't say they "should" define it, just that they are better equipped understand what it is to masculine - just as women are better equipped to understand what it is to be feminine."

OK, then just because women are 'better equipped' to understand femininity doesn't mean that they should define it either.

"Really? You think that the barbaric, sadisitic and 7th century views held by moslems is the ultimate definition of masculinity made by men? Wow, that's telling. I can say that I certainly do not share those views. I also don't define masculinity as what you call the Western definition of "neutered"."

No, you are confused. That is what the natural result a male 'understanding' of masculinity and that was *your* position. You haven't given a definition of masculinity, but apparently that includes the right to openly disagree with the patristic beliefs of the religion you claim to hold and, at the same time, claim not to 'neuter' that same masculinity.

"Also, I absolutely am not "missing the point" when it comes to Islam and the main problem with it. The treatment of women is one of the problems with it but not the most important one. The most important problem is that they want to take over the world and create a new Caliphate and will kill anyone who aims to stop them from doing so."

And I didn't say you 'miss the point when it comes to Islam'. What you 'miss the point' about is when you claim special ability to best 'understand' femininity yet deny men the same ability. I know, it's all about you getting to define both sides of the argument as necessary to suit yourself.

On that note I'm finished with this conversation. Again, have a good day. Take care."

Probably the best thing you could do in this case.

Your responses to me don't make any sense Dan. From what you have written I feel as though you completely misread what I wrote because your replys don't make sense in response to my posts.

Let's just drop it. Sorry if I rubbed you the wrong way. For the third and final time: Have a good day. All the best - really. :)
