In high school, I was a shy...I'm 5'7". In high school, I was a shy, nerdy type, so I got my share of disrespect. Fortunately, I had good parents, whose advice was, "forget them, lots of fish . . " I dated girls taller than me, even. And the summer after high school (1969), I met the girl who would, over 4 years later, become my wife. My success, as you have touched on in other essays, was that I could make people laugh. Still can.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08015544320906146949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497093028548856666.post-27059772672564128462013-11-27T17:43:04.158-05:002013-11-27T17:43:04.158-05:00Good post.

And what do many women reciprocate with? Contempt, disrespect.</i><br /><br />The lack of gratitude women have for their men astounds me. Over the past couple of weeks I've done several posts encouraging women to contemplate all the things they have to be grateful to their husbands for and to express that gratitude. Some women participated, but I was surprised that there were a handful of women who were outraged by it. They said it would be bragging or boasting for women to express gratitude for their men. I was shocked. No wonder men are losing interest in marriage, with <i>that</i> attitude coming from women.sunshinemaryhttp://sunshinemaryandthedragon.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497093028548856666.post-34341429172187850932013-11-27T17:17:52.673-05:002013-11-27T17:17:52.673-05:00I have been reading your blog for a year now, and ...I have been reading your blog for a year now, and I regularly check in to see updates.<br /><br />Well done with this excellent piece.

No argument whatsoever.<br />But don't forget that 'scumbags' are the kind of men that women love and just can't seem to get enough of.<br />Until they're approaching 30, of course (and they also see 'The Wall' making it's approach on them). Then they start their well-known cry of, "Where are all the Good Men?"...the same 'Good Men' that they treated like dirt all their privileged lives.<br />Scumbag men wouldn't exist if women wouldn't support and reward scumbag behavior.Take The Red Pillnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497093028548856666.post-86240068397798171142013-11-27T09:29:26.620-05:002013-11-27T09:29:26.620-05:00On the topic of social contracts, let's not fo...On the topic of social contracts, let's not forget to include the one between men. In that it's a commonplace notion in the manosphere that women will cheat. Some men in these parts forget that it takes two to tango and that sometimes when playing with fire that possibly one might get burned. I don't place blame squarely at the feet of women nor should they bear the burdens of accountability alone. There are plenty of men who are scumbags. jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12159582878985677964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497093028548856666.post-66138090493250391932013-11-27T09:25:34.495-05:002013-11-27T09:25:34.495-05:00They are doing just that, Jim...and the writing is...They are doing just that, Jim...and the writing is on the wall. <br /><br />I've drawn my line in the sand. I don't care how many women and stupid people disagree with it, I don't care how offended they get.<br /><br />Divorce and single parent families are not acceptable. Homosexuality is a perversion and unhealthy one. We are not all created equal. There SHOULD be a social stigma about accepting charity and welfare.<br /><br />It is hard to find things to be thankful for in modern 'femc*nt' women today...but I am thankful for my old world wife.
