Mr Misogyny
Alright. I dislike misogynists—and that includes those in “recovery�—if there is such a thing. I guess man-haters are just as bad. Altogether, they are not very happy people. When I was out with a guy recently, he confessed to me that he’d been a misogynist at one time. He explained it was because he had been living in California since high school and said that all the women he encountered had grown up being used to being fed by a silver spoon.
I’m not really sure what he meant exactly—if it was just his assumption that all attractive women must be stuck up snobs and therefore he was fully justified in over-generalizing half of the human race – er, correction – make that just the “attractive-according-to-him� women as being worthless.
I don’t know. What I do know is that for “no longer being a misogynist,� he really liked to “correct� me. Although, unbeknownst to him, most of his “corrections� were just him not understanding my dry, sarcastic, often facetious and sometimes callous humor. Not only did I imagine myself getting increasingly irritated with him, I wonder to myself what other women without patience think. What would other people in my position – right then and there- do?
I feel a little sad for him. I would hate living life waiting for my next opportunity to tell someone that they are wrong and therefore suck at life—okay, maybe not that far. But he’d use it as a segue into how knowledgeable and philosophical and successful he was… more than a little exhausting to listen to let alone try to uphold the light end of a very weighted conversation.
Hm. Not my favorite way to date, methinks.

He’sght…..with most women, the world really DOES revolve around their butt!
If the divorce rate and the number of single parent families wasn’t so high, he could probably be seen as nothing more than a whinger…but….the way most modern women carry on, how can you blame him for thinking otherwise….
UNTIL we get to the stage where true equality is something that just happens naturally, people like him will always be around….
Ask yourself, do you go out and get a job that pays big bucks to further your own life, or does Mr Right have to come sweeping around the corner to provide it all for you?
Wake up….stop playing with him and give him what he wants…then get rid of him…anything else is rubbish….
As I say, the world simply does not revolve around your ass!
Researchers of the world….MAKE US AN ARTIFICIAL WOMB PLEASE! Knock the women of this world of their self satisfied pedastal!

Just to expand……
Go down to the local homeless shelter. Have a look at the numbers, then count the number of men there, and see for yourself that women very rarely end up alone!
Of course, I’m sure this is the kind of research you won’t be indulging in…..
WAITING for THE DAY when we invent an ARTIFICIAL WOMB……

Wow. I have no idea what any of that even means.
