One? This happened to one of your friends so you think it’ll be the case for everyone?

What is that all about? You think that all feminists hate children? And why on earth would they wish death upon their child?

If "most feminists are lesbians" why would they want to kill a child they would have had gone to so much trouble to have?

The sexes can meet through online dating or a blind date.
Married men aren't supposed to carry on like they were single, so why would they be hanging with all these women unless his wife is present with them? That is where all the trouble starts, the rest is just doom.

So once you get married you must attend all outings only with your wife/husband?

No nights out with the guys, no fishing trips with your buddies, no Superbowl parties?

Same for the girls? No more dinner and dancing with your girlfriends, no more shopping with your girlfriends?

No individual time or space at all anymore.

Boy. I can’t wait to get married. They say nothing changes after marriage, dontcha know.

I recently saw a Dr. Phil episode where a woman was in a relationship and was best friends with her male co-worker. They had feelings for each other and were in a emotional affair, soon to be intimate affair. There were a lot of tensions on that episode.

I'm sure not all feminists hate children. There's anti-feminists who hate children and that's perfectly okay. But the childed will take offense to that.

So?

Was this co-worker better for her? Would he make her happier? Did he show her the attention her husband would not?

Relationships end all the time. Sometimes under horrible circumstances, but people can’t deny their feelings. They shouldn’t have to live a lie if they are in love with someone else, don’t you think?

The only thing I don’t agree with is her being unfaithful to her husband.

I don’t believe in this “emotional affair” rubbish. You kiss/blow/screw someone else, you’re cheating. That’s it. I have lots of male friends who I get on with and yes, some I am even attracted to, but I don’t consider myself a cheat because I happen to have a connection with a member of the opposite sex who isn’t my boyfriend. I am sure he is attracted to other women too. It’s human.

I grew up around boys and have been best friends with them since I was 7 years old. I still get on better with them than I do with women. I couldn’t imagine being with someone who would ask me to give those friendships up.

Again, why is it only this one example?

I once heard a brilliant quote that went something like this:
"You know you have achieved maturity when you dont have to screw everyone you're attracted to."
Sure wish I could remember where I heard/read that, because its sooooooo true.

So true!!!!!

If you can’t exercise self control, you’re better off single.

A tad off topic!

Feminism and so on… continue!
