I enjoy etymology and translations like you and appreciate when you talk about it.<br /><br />I'm interested because that line always perplexed and perturbed me, never knew what to make of it entirely, and it would really clarify the line if it's what you say. <br /><br />But the implications of your translation are big. Not trying to challenge your translation, just double-checking you mean it exactly so.Questornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497093028548856666.post-1789286038237965772014-10-04T19:04:07.859-04:002014-10-04T19:04:07.859-04:00Don't talk to me about metaphors.

You are as usual misrepresenting the situation.<br /><br />We know women are capable of love, but we also know (i) the mechanism to promote her love and maintain it, and (ii) what women think of as love is different to what men think of as love.<br /><br />Sure a man can maintain more than one woman ('plates' - you know what a metaphor is ? ) at the same time if he chooses to. But for me, the main benefit is to know why your woman behaves the way she does, and accentuate the good behaviour while disincentivsing the bad.<br /><br />As you say, women are childlike, so a relationship with a woman needs to be managed.<br /><br />Given that you acknowledge there are few societal restraints on female excess, it seems odd, that you wish to disparage alternative techniques that have been shown, can be employed to maintain an equitable relationship - against modern odds.<br /><br />Once a woman has invested in you (fallen in love if you must), if a man keeps a clear head, he has her for life, even in today's degenerate environment.<br /><br />And, yes men with this knowledge can abuse its use too.
