What I know about men...
Gaurdian Unlimited ^ | Sunday March 12, 2006 | Ann Widdecombe

Posted on 03/15/2006 1:41:04 PM PST by klossg

Note: The author, Ann Widdecombe is a longtime member of the English Parliament, 58, MP, single.

A man's company is preferable. Men are vastly more relaxing. I find talking about all that emotional rubbish with women so incredibly wearing: I hate introspection. Men are far less screwed-up than women. They don't make emotional demands or talk endlessly about themselves; they talk about politics, the theatre, that sort of stuff. They like to be strong and like to be thought to be strong. I think that's perfectly normal.

The full article is here.

This article, written by woman who is longtime a member of England's Parliament, shows the understanding and beauty of men and women.

There is a difference between men and women. It is a good difference and actually is the source of human life. The essence of God (God is life) is in this difference somewhere. Get interested in The Theology of the Body.

For example Neil Kinnock said he always found it particularly hard to be rude to Margaret Thatcher across the dispatch box, precisely because she was a woman.

That's funny, Joe Biden said the same thing about Condoleeza Rice... /jk

from the article: When it comes to feminism I think we've gone overboard and underboard, frankly. Even today far too much emphasis is put on women's appearances. ... I also think it's terrible that we have completely denied the value of a woman who stays at home and decides to bring up the kids. I had a full-time mother, and look at me.

When it comes to children, if someone says to me would I rather have had them or not, then the answer is obviously 'yes'.


Slowly lifetime Feminists are seeing that they don't need to be so angry and that motherhood and children have a huge value. It is out of her mouth ... not mine. That is what makes it a blessing and an arrow pointing at a ton of available grace for our modern world.

I am seeing GenX daughters reject the strident nature of their mom's and careers to be stay at home mothers again.

I want her to take a DNA test. I don't think she's human.

The Hildebeeste isn't human ... it's a crusty pantsuit that has taken on a life of its own.

"...when it comes to feminism I think we've gone overboard and underboard, ... ."

I am in agreement here.

Why is it that a woman can't be both strong and feminine? Why is it a woman can't be both smart and attractive?

That a woman's femininity and intelligence is appreciated by a man is comforting to know.
