there's nothing wrong with being old fashioned. it's all about who you are, and who you feel you are. Me, i'm jsut me and there's no other way to describe it. I've been with yonger guys and older guys, and I love my jared. So i asked him to marry me, becasue i knew it was the right thing to do. He said yes, and 2 months later we started living together.

I'm pretty like secy in how I see the roles of men and women. But just because I'm an old fashioned romantic doesn't mean that if it comes down to things I'll let a man walk right over me. I've been through stalkers, abusive relationships and more besides and when I needed to be I was the one in control. Yes women are strong, but it takes a lot more to be in control of yourself than it does to flaunt your strength. Who is stronger? The woman who tells her man to do things, or the woman who doesn't need to?

I disagree with you trinny. Men and women are equal. Men are better at some things, women at others. I think it's pretty foolish to think of one as better than the other and rather arrogant to call your own gender the better one.
Disagree with me though if you like. I'm used to it. I had this arguement running for two years solid with someone. Hey Secy! Nice to see you here again. How are you? Fishing gone well? |
Whoa. Some heated gender vs. gender debate. hehe
-grabs some popcorn- Hello, all. ^-^ |
howdy nessie. Yeah this kinda happens whenever people tell me to do something and then I come out with a refusual on the grounds of my old fashioned beliefs. All the girls nearby get super femenist on me.

@secret its ok you of course dont need to agree with what I think but it is still what i think @Angel I didnt say better , better is a very hard word, no one is better I was saying stronger emotionally because they are psychologically different, i learnt that from my psychology class too so it is not my invention. so I am not being arrogant. |

@Jayms_fallen_angel- Eh. I'm pretty neutral on the whole old fashioned vs. feminist issue. You won't get much criticism from me. xD

You know, only a fool generalizes an entire species by a few examples, much as only a fool generalises an entire race...or an entire gender. And just because your teacher tells you so does not make it correct. The psychology teachers at my college all got things wrong.
I'm against femenism. I'm against machoism too, I just like a nice balance. You know? What's wrong with letting a guy do the work? What's wrong with exerting control only when it's needed and in a subtle way? I'm female, I'll be femenine. Taking control the vocal/physical is too masculine for me. I mean I'm one of the guys down the pub but if you want a relationshi with a macho type go for a guy? |
Are you calling me fool?

Wazzup ppl? i feel so newby here

Goodbye, Sagitar!
Oh, and congratulations, Sagitar and orlybirdy! -feels like she is eavesdropping by reading that post- |

What I am saying Trinny is that until you meet every last guy you cannot generalise them all without being foolish. Hell until you meet every last male or at least a majority of them in your own country you can't even generalise your countries male population. Society makes people different! you cannot class all men as less emotionally euipped than women or the other way around. Where is your evidence? How many men and woman did you use in the test that led to this hypothesis? I can gurantee you every guy I know is more emotionally equipped to deal with social and family situations than me.
Men are just as well euipped to take care of the home and family as women are. I know a few men who manage this a damn site better than a fair few women. It's even! Afterall when we are both concieved we all start out as women. Men GAIN an extra chromosone after a few months. Therefore if you want to say that either gender lacks something, scientifically it would be the female as we have one less chromosone. *shrugs* |
I think you are misunderstanding me, i never said you couldnt but I think it is not the average, and I am again not saying one is better than the other just that women are stronger in that area same as men tend...TEND to be stronger physically I think you guys totally misunderstood my words.
It is proved though that women do a better WORK multitasking than men, I am not saying anyone is better, more than that I think they are equal and COMPLEMENT each other very well because there is a balance, but there are differences, psychological differences. I hope you understand now. |

all this posting between u guys is like filling up my email! LOL

Trinny, if you don't want people to argue with you don't try and tell men they're less than they are and don't try to tell me. It's not going to work. I have read your posts and I think your arguement is foolish and based on opinion rather than fact and case studies.
But yeah I'ma gonna ide with secy on the refusing to discus this further. *sigh* I got bored bidding for my crown. Maybe I'll try fishing. |
