We all are made up of our experiences. Who we associate or associated with who WE were and are. How we have been tested and how we react to those tests. All of it contributes to the sum of who we are. In that manner background matters. But as we become adults WE make our choices. Whom we associate with and who has significance in our lives so whatever our background it doesn't define our present. We as individuals define ourselves through our own choices. And I refuse to ever use upbringing as an excuse for personal shortcoming. My actions today are mine. ... the fault and credit alike.

Holy moly! Exactly! And Morgan has become quite the bad azz......that staff work! exactly! Damn I don't wanna wait! is morgan working for the other group? he sure learned how to fight quick... I don't think so. The actor that plays morgan was a guest on Talking Dead and said there wld be a lot of his story told in upcoming episodes that wld explain his character turnaround.

Guys who just come out to bash the women who want equality instead of supporting us are not real men and are not gentlemen. This topic is waiting to hear from the gentlemen which seem not to exist at the moment. I did not say that it was okay to be treated like crap....I said that as imperfect beings we occasionally treat each other like crap...and when someone we care about does it we can extend compassion and understanding just as we ask for compassion and understanding when we do it. You are not perfect...you have treated someone like crap in your life...if you can't acknowledge that simple truth then you are the one with a problem not every man on the planet. If you want equality then dish it out. This is just overly compassionate crap. Do you know what your compassion theory generates? Abused/dead women and children, so I say f your compassion, give it to the victims. I was a victim....as a child when I had no power but I can guarandamntee you that I practice the same compassion I demand from everyone in my life....men or women. I am NO victim and have not nor will I ever be abused. I have enough self respect to cut anyone that disrespectful out of my life. I am a strong, opinionated, compassionate AND intelligent woman that knows what I have to offer a man. I don't need to belittle anyone...much less an entire gender to try to take my power back. It IS my power...we are all born with the ability to fulfill our own happiness...it saddens me when someone can't figure out how to do that and must blame that shortcoming on half of society.

All the men responding are gentlemen and very real.....I'm pretty sure if they weren't gentlemen they would be saying a lot worse things to you instead of trying to defend themselves against such a bitter person!!

I don't bash men, I am critical of their behavior, as one should be, in practice they cause much harm in the world. It is upsetting that this is all swept under the carpet and anyone who points it out is called names. I think more women AND men should take this matter seriously like I do. I am not the problem. Those in denial are. Again, blaming MEN for all the problems in the world. You are quick to point out sexism by men, yet you practice sexism. This is more denial. Do you need a history book to read about sexism against women by men? Men invented sexism. I only point it out, I'm not sexist. You realize you're the only one who believes you're not a misandrist, right? I don't agree with everything, but I've actually seen her come up with some very good points. What I find peculiar: Your comments on women in this thread are very biased, negative and not respectful, yet no one picks up on that?? It (still) seems normal and generally accepted to knock women, yet if someone does the same towards men, the chit hits the fan. Two wrongs don't make a right, you know. And I do NOT agree with either attitude, but if one is wrong, the other is as well. That's equality for you As long as no one gets that it's just as wrong to knock women as it is to knock men, and vice versa, this discussion will continue. As long as one starts lashing when another is bashing, we won't get anywhere. So pointing out that women who ask the original question of this thread, which is nowhere near all women, generally have a predisposed notion of a "REAL" man, yet reject anyone who doesn't fit EVERYTHING on the checklist is sexist? No that is not sexist. I personally only have one thing on my checklist and that is so hard to find, the he genuinely loves me back *as much as I love him.* I have wondered for many years if men are capable of love as in fairytale love.. romantic love.. not just respect admiration or fondness.. but love. Why is Cinderella read to little girls, why isn't there a book for boys called Prince Charming? Why do women have to worry about this stuff and not men? It's so one sided from the beginning we have been brain washed by all this engrained sexism against women. Women were taught many lies.. to love and there will be a reward of the same in return. This is not true and men think we are holding them to a very high standard, more than they were ever taught. They feel so guilty that they become abusive jerks. This is what society makes of boys and girls and we are a product of society. So, who is wrong men or women? Probably both. ^^^^there is your difficulty right there....if you love someone you accept them...and that means accepting that sometimes he is a dbag...just like sometimes she is a biotch...you can't demand acceptance and not give it....that is not love. A man will have the utmost patience and care with a woman he loves, a dbag won't, that's not love...being treated like crap is not love. Accepting being treated like crap is not love, it's not even self love. A PERFECT man will....sure. but men ain't perfect. They are going to hurt your feelings. They are going to be careless. They are going to treat you like crap. Just like YOU are going to do all those things to him. Love is accepting that no one is perfect but that he/she is worthy of your love and striving to be worthy of theirs....to the best of our imperfect abilities. Impossible expectations ain't gonna get you anywhere but old, sad and lonely.

Real men and women exist....what the hell, it ain't like we are made of plastic. "Real" men and women are exactly that REAL. That means they make real mistakes and have real feelings and are in the same boat as all the other "real" people....trying to find their way in this real life the best way they know how. Some are just real good at it and some are real bad at it. This is part of what I've been trying to say this whole time!

Occasional misspellings don't faze me.... unless they accompany ignorance. If you are spouting bullshite and expecting to be taken seriously while spelling incorrectly then I am most decidedly turned off. You can't act as if you are learned and expect people to give your written opinions any weight if you can't spell or are too lazy to take advantage of spellchecker.

They want drama. The more drama the better the sex is in their mind. That is why a man has a lower threshold for attraction. That's how a bitchy girl gets a guy and a nice girl sits home alone. I'd say these men have a personal problem. ... and I'm sure glad they are looking for bitchy women so I don't have to worry about their dumbasses pursuing me.

I was bitten by a dog and my bottom lip was ripped off when I was 5, they sewed it up horizontally on the bottom inside and out and then vertically right down the middle. It looked like I had just been busted in the mouth growing up but genetics gave me big lips and eventually the rest caught up with the scars and it is barely discernable now. I cut the underside of my big toe when I was 12 and have a large scar there. A horse ran me into a barbed wire fence at 14 and left several scars on my lower legs. I spilled burning grease on my upper thigh at 16 and that took months to heal and left a substantial scar. I sliced my thumb on a catfish at 18 that left a scar. I was involved in a motor vehicle vs. cow accident that shattered my left arm and left a railroad looking scar from wrist to elbow on the inside and outside of my lower arm as well as the smaller scars the surgeons left putting a plate in my neck and left foot. I wear my scars well. To me they are proof that one can overcome anything.....given the right mindset.
