Of course the villification of men today is a violent backlash against the trend of mothers forced to rear their children without the support of the father, by the father's choice, not their own. Also, I would never force my man into having children, but quite frankly its not the desire of my heart. I would concede to have children in order to satisfy his natural desire for a family. However, my man's bestfriend is currently married to woman because of an unplanned pregnancy. According to my man she once said, "It didn't matter if he wasn't ready for a family, I was." And there you have it folks. I think that's twisted. Well, I agree for the most part.

I could care less if you like me or my spambot ways. Let me ask you a question? Do you think all this serious discussion is leading us to some sort of new awakening in the history of humanity. Some Utopia? I have come to the realiziation that everything said by V and you and everyone else is just a mashup of every discussion ever. If it helps you to have serious discussions about the way things are... then more power to you. Your #41 post was great... I'm glad it helped you help yourself on the state of the world. If it works in your local microcosm... amen. Truth be told, all this talk talk, including mine is just that. Whether it's serious discussion or spambot style. It's all the same... it goes in circles. Conversations, discussion... human style always end up going in circles .............round and round and round like a merry-go-round. We are an anthropocentric species and if all we talk about is how to deal with our immediate problems such as raising our children to be functional and particularly successful without regard to the the environment that sustains our existence... then there is a chance the children are gonna have one hell of a time just scraping together food & shelter much less being successful. Cowardly men and goth/depressed chlidren aren't gonna mean shit when billions upon billions of people are searching for what could be quite limited essentials. Thanks for the concern... I'm not saying we're doomed. I am saying there are more pressing issues concerning the state of the world than yours or anyone else's children. Teach your children survival skills then maybe they'll have a chance. As for me... there's no chance in hell... I have no survival skills whatsoever and I don't care. There that was me being 'serious' for a minute. We'll see how things work out I guess... it should be interesting. I'm actually an optimist disguised as a pessimist. Take care of your kids, and unless they are like perfectly trained sheep dogs... keep them outta my bubble. Shadowbird, I actually find it quite interesting that you took the time to talk to me.

Because really, there's no logical reason for me to do so. But just so that it is said - one of the reasons why most of us (well, me at least, but I don't think I'm alone on this one) don't like you is that you post 5, 6, 7 and more posts in a row. That's what spambots do. Even though you're apparently not, if you keep acting like one, I will keep treating you like one. Namely - ignoring you. Oh, you also go offtopic way too often and for way too long. Which is also what spambots do. You can reply if you want, but unless you start talking more sense and writing more sensibly, I will treat you as the spambot you are imitating and just skip over every post that starts with "Emerild".

V's just commenting on a problem she sees, not the whole spectrum of marriage and children raising. That's what people do - they see something they consider wrong and talk about it.

Unfortunately, I know families where the situation is *exactly* how V describes it. There's a lot of talk (meaning campaigns and such), at least in my country, about husbands physically and psychologically abusing their wives (which is good - the campaigns I mean ;)), but not a single word is spoken about vice versa. Why? Same reason - women are still unconditionally considered the "fair sex", and thus the idea of a wife abusing her husband even psychologically (much less physically) seems so awkward to everyone (including the husbands!!!), that there's only silence. The result is weak, cowardly men and depressed/goth children with drug and alchohol problems. And no, I'm not saying that this is the one and only root of all evil.
