I did know SA! Thanks for the link I'm not that young! I just wasn't going to 'let it pass' …
Strangely enough, in Spain (ruled by a dictatorship till 1975), although women had to have their father or husband permission to work or own property, married women never ever had to change their surname to their husbands. Women kept their one and only name from birth till death married or single. Consequently, children all have 2 surnames- first the father's followed by the mother's …
I don't think humans should "own" one another but I do believe in commitment You forgot to add "and men don't want to share the bed with other women if they're married... just to make things equal … and clear …
The fact is that most men like women who look well groomed but some (and you admit to being one of them) don't want to allow for the time it takes to "look well groomed"
Generally... let me tell run it past you and resolve the mystery … It takes longer to wash her hair and apply conditioner (so she doesn't look like a witch) … longer than it takes than it takes a guy to wash his short hair if he has any … It takes longer to get legs to look smooth … longer than it takes a guy to shave … It takes longer to apply skin lotion … longer tan it takes a guy to apply aftershave... It takes longer to dry and style her hair … longer than it takes a guy with short or no hair … It takes longer to apply make up (even if it's only face cream) … longer than it takes a guy to pluck a couple of hairs out of his nose … It takes longer to put on undergarments … longer than a guy to pull on a pair of underpants...
… then there's pantyhose and zips on dresses and bracelets and belts and scarves and shoes
Even if a woman wore no make up it would still take her longer to get ready! And she deserves every minute of whatever she does to pamper (honour) herself as a person, as a woman! What can you do? Tell her she looks amazing and feel thankful she wants to spend all that time in the bathroom to feel good about herself and share it WITH YOU.
did I just read … "You know your husband is yours" and "They (the husband's friends) know your his" …. as if people are someone else's property? And somehow it's all connected to how much or how little make up a woman should wear?
Are you starting a political discussion about the internal politics of the USA in my thread questioning whether 'internal politics' should be discussed in 'internal forums if that particular country!?
Women need to stop dumbing themselves down so as not to 'scare men off' .. Paradoxically Women also need to know they are enough... Beautiful enough Smart enough Intelligent enough Good enough Funny enough To be worthy of being loved for who they are ... in the same way that men are worthy of being loved for who they are ...
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and perception of what is going on... and you are welcome to yours by all means! Knock yourself out voicing your discontent and calling me a 'troll' and calling my treads 'whiny'. Ohhhhhhhh! And were you also implying I'm short on common sense and long on stupidity? Mmmmmm.... on reflexion don't answer that. It was a rethorical question.
@ delicate little snowflakes ... Do you have any idea how beautiful, as well as delicate, snowflakes are under a microscope? ... and yet get a few snowflakes together and even your anger and disdain would be powerless faced with a snow storm ...
Moral of the story... don't take the piss out of snowflakes ...
My 'pretty little brain box' was suggesting discussing 'international politics' in the international forums but keeping internal polotics of each country to 'their forums' ...
That's how it used to be in the past ... may be abiut 10 years ago ... there was a political section, poetry section, healthy living section etc... for each country or block of countries ...
Should threads about individual countries internal politics be in the International forums?
Did you have to pick your way through lazet beams and all?
