Personally I find most London women so unattractive that they make an empty bed seem like a very attractive proposition.


That bad, huh?

I've lived in Los Angeles, but here in Louisiana we have some of the finest southern belles you've ever set your eyes upon, I swear. They're used to being spoiled though...

Most of the younger ones just seem to care about getting drunk and shagging lots of men.


Works for me. I don't plan on getting married again and as long as I'm still pulling young chicks, I'll take advantage of it...:twisted:

Folks, when it gets nasty, I'm out.


Oh c'mon, you just made a joke on the other board about men in the south having short dicks...:roll:

I would have to say Germaine Greer.


Her fascination with young boys is strange. She has admitted to having a fetish for them...

Is this all about who has the biggest and the baddest, or is it or isn't it about construction? Damn this need to compare is goofy.


There is a HUGE distinction between residential and commercial construction, anyone who has spent any time in the indistry knows this. Adding a room to your home doesn't even remotely compare to the daily grind of real commercial work. Apples and oranges...

You are skilled, I am skilled, good enough... or does it not stop until one has worked on the tallest building in the world, building it single handedly?


Five years ago, I slipped and almost fell four stories straight down the elevator shaft of Marriot Hotel I was building as a project manager. I barely caught myself and had to suck up the butterflies and continue my workday, hands still shaking because i had to support my family. What's the worst that can happen in residential work, a piece of sheet rock could fall over on you?

Here is something I've been thinking about. A woman divorces, take's half or whatever then get's child support. Finds a new guy and moves in and marries him. He also supports her children. Good economics in my mind.


Yep, so she ends up having two men support her kids with neither one having any real say in how they're raised. Ever try to discipline another woman's child? She gets all the power and control, the guys get the bill. What a deal...

"I wired 90% of my home, built probably 70% of it. a friend of mine built a 2400 square foot addition on her home. She also spent a summer on a Habitat For Humanity all woman crew. Next question?"

I'm not talking about Mickey Mouse construction. Not only have I done the HFH thing(which is a joke), I've built a hospital, two hotels and a hundred million dollar casino. Ninety-nine point nine percent of the skilled trades in the field were men.  The company I worked for had a man fall to his death six months in to the casino project. You aren't likely to die passing out lemonade to a HFH crew...

Come on... isn't a whole lot better to work for solutions that move everyone toward equality?


I wonder if, as a feminist, you could help us come up with some solutions to get women into the dangerous high paying jobs that men work to support their families. You know, the ones that can kill you, such as electricians, saturation divers, high rise steel workers, mining, oil rig workers, etc.

Men make up over 90% of annual workplace fatalities. How do we get this number down to 50% so we have equality?

Affirmative action? Hiring quotas?

I agree, the internet has been a boon to our movement. As men, we are raised to be problem solvers, self reliant and not to whine. To "take it like a man" if you will. Unlike many women, we tend to revel in the fact that we can solve our own problems without assistance from others. This strength, has also been our weakness, as we stood idly by while our rights were eroded and didn't band together sooner.

While I have always been politically active, being part of this movement and discussing men's issues publicly still carries a certain stigma. The 'net has given me the tools to stay current w/ regards to men's issues and to have at the tip of my tongue facts and statistics to counter the standard feminist rhetoric that gets spewed whenever we bring up our issues.

Thanks Al Gore!

For the record, lkanneg, it's nice having you around. It gets pretty boring watching each other preach to the choir here.


That's why I recommended this board to her. She seemed genuinely curious what would go on a men's issues site. I'd much rather debate with her than a eunuch like Hugo...

So you get a guy to pay on a regular basis.


Holy shit that's funny! Yeah, we pay one way or another. I think this one's married though.  :D

LOL, as long as (a) everybody is putting out for psychologically healthy reasons as opposed to unhealthy ones and (b) everybody is practicing safe sex, I don't see any reason why it'd be bad.


I'm 32 now and 15 years ago it seems like you had to somewhat try, but now with the "hooking up" craze it's like you don't have to do anything. I see a possible future where relationships become obsolete in favor of FWB or FB situations and all kids are raised by the nanny-state on child support. All under the guise of women "taking control of their sexuality".

We are becoming so independent and set in our ways that as men and women, neither one of us wants to compromise in a relationship. We all want to have our cake and eat it too...

"If anybody says that (that women have no reason to lie about sexual assault) then they're being ridiculous."

Yep, revenge is a powerful motivator. I broke up with a live-in girlfriend and  I said and did a few things that humiliated her over the next few days after the break-up, but trust me she deserved it. Two weeks later I was arrested for suspicion of rape. When the detectives discovered I had a airtight alibi, they said "thanks, we'll be in touch" and let me go. What did they do to Shannon? NOTHING.

I've had a nineteen year old fuck buddy this summer and she is a total hottie. What really amazes me is the complete blase' attitude the younger generation of women has towards giving it up. This whole "hooking up" thing takes all the work out of it. At this point in my life, I don't even need a relationship to consisistently get sex. I still haven't decided whether this is good or bad...
