Of course, I say ‘probably’....this is a discussion forum, i am not presenting an exhaustively researched thesis on the topic.

However, from interactions, conversations and obervations of ‘how women think’ I feel strongly I am on track.

But more to the central point—since you reject it as ‘patently absurd’...(ahem, really?) let’s hear your counter “conjecture”.

This is why it’s so important that MALES in personal r/ships take the stand—if women knew they could depend on the man in their life to ‘be there’, they’d probably be less likely to fall for the left wing crap.
I do claim your statement is patently absurd...(yes, really!) Nobody can claim with any assurance that they're going to "be there" forever. As your statement stands it appears that you don't think a woman can make any determinations on her own without a man being there to lead the way. That's pretty damned sexist if you ask me.
And as far as leading them so they don't "fall for the left wing crap" I can only say that as with children a parent can only give advice or share experience. Children choose to follow it or not. Many men can, and do, take care of the woman in their life, but they can't force the woman to follow them or act according to his conceptions and perceptions instead of their own. Free will still reigns in a relationship. You have to voluntarily follow the lead and a woman may not want to follow. Dictating to her how she is supposed to think or act leads to a lousy relationship.
I was once told that an abused woman stays in such a relationship because she liked it, expected it or was used to it. As far as the government taking over as the man in a woman's life all I can say is that victim-hood taught is victim-hood wrought. Thinking beings should be able to see through BS like that. It isn't that they don't, it's that they won't!
Either way you're making overly broad, sweeping generalizations about both men and women.
