And now a little something for the ladies: Stop telling men how to be men. You are never satisfied with the results of your interference in the natural order. Ladies want a man who is sensitive and attentive to their kaleidoscope of emotions, who enjoys heart- warming moments, baby showers, and shopping malls. They want this same man to not be attracted to men. Ladies want a man who will do all of the above, plus be strong and handsome, a provider, a nurturer, a protector. Just as long as he never gets angry with her. And doesn't cheat. Rapunzel, this man does not exist. In caveman times, if you had a man grab your hair, it was because he was about to club you unconscious and drag you back to his real man-cave. How barbaric...and Freudian **** eh? You see, ladies, we don't run the male N.F.L. locker rooms the way you run yours. Men are brutish, vile, roid-raged, and coarse in competition. Just the way you like them. But when you find one that likes you, you can have a smattering of those nice things as well. Because he likes you. If you were lucky enough to find a sensitive devil like that, i know you wouldn't do anything stupid to change his opinion of you. That would just be foolish and self-defeating, wouldn't it? After all, Women's Lib didn't teach you to stop being women, did it? If you want it all, you have to take it all, good and bad. Just sayin'...

sorry ladies, i saw a news broadcast where a woman journalist was lecturing about how to run an NFL locker room. How would she know how men are with each other in private? I don't tell women how to be a woman or deal with other women. Some things are, or should be, out of bounds i think.
