yep, if you examine the goddess religions of the time, there were many serpents laying about, with their obvious phallic implications and regenerative (new skin) powers....also, anthropologists consider it highly likely that women, being the gatherers by a great majority were probably the ones who discovered how agriculture would work, since they were the ones gathering, preparing and disposing of the food while the men sharpened their weapons. i guess a world where they have to work hard EVERY dayfor some planted food, as opposed to weekly for a large game animal would be considered a casting out of paradise, though i wonder how badly the women really felt about that...and the pain we experience in childbirth some from our head to pelvis ratio. the larger the head, the more painful and difficult the birth, right? so you could say that an increase in knowledge and intelligence WOULD make for a just punishment to the sisters of eve... as for even being just as capable of using a shovel and such, well, of course she is. she just happened to already have a TON of work to do, whereas adam...hm...that's his deal.
Soaring Eagle, what's going on in your head? You know that every person has their own personality and that men and women can both be on both sides of the guns vs butter debate. You say so specificaly, actually. But you also attach all of the negative things to men, and all of the possitive things to women. I supose that in order to make it all line up right, you consider a man who happens to not be an asshole "feminine", while a woman who happens to be one is "masculine", right?
OMG! I normally like Soaringeagles point as they come over with a depth of experience and humanity that is enviable, but MATE! what is happening to your brain on this thread??? There are clear reasons why women don't rule, #1 being that they change their minds every two seconds and can never be pleased. They ALWAYS want what they can't have, when they have it, they don't want it, whatever the subject matter. I can't say I'm a huge Tom Lykis (sp?) but I'm glad his voice is out there for all the unsuspecting adolescent males that yet have to be constantly fucked over by the female of the species. Yeah, I'm a total sexist, male chauvinist pig and bitches should know that. They are only worth fucking and dumping when they finally show their true colors. All they want is to suck you financially and emotionally dry. Once they have you then you are suddenly to blame for all their failures in life. Shit, just thinking about some of the bitches I have known makes my blood boil. Oh yeah, I'm also currently living in Orange County, SoCal, where a more fucked up set of women you cannot find on the planet. Go look at the OC Craigslist postings for Women seeking Men. On there they even ask for you to bring along your W2's on the first date! It's UNREAL!!!!!
lol. if you were living in OC, which is the home i ran far far away from, i'd give you a bit more stretch, because the bitches in OC are far too fucked up to even discuss. seriously.
Thanks mynameisskc. Being in OC totally distorts ones views on women. I actually have three wonderful sisters (and eight nephews and nieces now) as well as being close with my mother, so I know there are great women out there. Sadly just none in the OC! I also got dumped at the weekend by my live-in girlfriend of two years by text message! Can you believe that?? So I have to admit that I'm fairly jaded right now. The baggage is piling high and there ain't no handler to be seen for miles....... I'll be better in about a month's time Peace.
RE: Go look at the OC Craigslist postings for Women seeking Men. On there they even ask for you to bring along your W2's on the first date! It's UNREAL!!!!! OMG I have to check this out.
OK , didn't see W2 request, but this is classic: "But most of all I want a man who will pursue me. That means call me and understand me. I want someone who will make an effort and really try to get to know me. I want someone to curl up with at the end of a long day and someone who kisses me the right way." Gee, wow! What's in it for ME? I mean, I know you want a guy who will do whatever it takes for you.... A lot of "let's see if you can keep up with me"s or some variant thereof. Jesus. There's one girl who wants to skip the dating and go straight to being wife and mommy (until of course it doesn't suit her anymore...)
Right on IronGoth. Sometimes I can hardly believe what I read on the OC Craigslist, but it's really true when you live here. None of my friends would ever marry an girl who was born and raised in OC. Even the imports get tainted very quickly with the OC Mad Cow disease. Peace.
yeah, it's a truly bizarre mindset out there. i don't know WTF, and i never did figure it out. i lived there a very long time, and i gotta say, i truly despised women until i got out of there.
Well, you know nature has its way of rewarding us...when we get older, we have an avergae 10 years of 'wise elder' time...when the man has stopped being useful!
i was refering to the sentence you were questioning. i thought to try to answer your question about ker's post, but her post made no sense. though, still, your's isn't making any sense, either. lol.
