Thanks Metmom. I must be very fortunate to have never known men who view women in such a way. Father, Grandfather, Uncles, friends, pastors, and husband have all shown respect. And never have I known one to ever state their regret about the 19th amendment, even as a joke.

I’m going to make an assumption regarding the few who are commenting against the 19th amendment: They are an extremely small percentage. For thoe few, I feel bad for the women in their life.

For all the whining about what women have done to this country, it's surreal that there are men (and a few women) who actually think this way. Fortunately, all the important men in my life don't fall into this category. While not feminists by any stretch of the imagination, they do recognize that women have value beyond being the house maid with "privileges".

Oh come on! Like you're the only one who had limited interaction with the opposite sex? Obviously there are males on this thread who never met a female worthy of respect, before they chewed through the restraints and wandered out into public. Now that they're here, they have no idea how to behave. Give them a break. They don't know any better. And keep an eye out for their offspring, because they won't know any better either.
