The second sentence above is dripping with bitterness, which massively contradicts the first sentence above.

Which generation of men were treated this way, in your mind? It's certainly not mine, my father's, or my grandfather's, from what I've seen, so you must either be really old or from the future.

That's very sad. I don't know any men like you and I'm almost 50. I've known many men in my life, young and old and almost all of them have some kind of respect for women on some level. My daughter has a wonderful boyfriend and they're in their early 20s, maybe part of your generation? Yet they don't share your views. It's very interesting indeed.

I personally couldn't give a flying fart about whether you date or don't date, or whether you love women or hate them. It's your life, you live it the best you see fit. But to make bold claims about a system that hates men and keeps you in "chains", is just a load of garbage. Maybe you need to start hanging out with a better quality crowd instead of the twitty alphas and user chicks. Your views on reality are non congruent to most of us.

Chains...LOL...may I suggest some light reading about how women were once treated not all that long ago, where we had no rights to even our own body let alone property.

But I highly doubt someone as stuck in their hamster on a wheel thought pattern as you would even bother to get some perspective on this aspect. Thinking about things deeply is too difficult and heaven forbid you might see a flaw in your argument.

Or it's you and not your penis. ED is often psychologically-based.

There is some gray area here. If it's not a biological problem, but a matter of you not being aroused by her, it's something that is happening between the two of you, which makes it hard to attribute all to you or all to her. Either way, it's probably time to move on, so it doesn't really matter.

Haha while in most situations and even dating I like to think men and women are pretty equal, women do have the upper hand in this aspect, even though it still may not be enjoyable, it can be hidden haha.. same with if a guy accidentally finishes too early!

Several women here and there may not, but in my experience I'd venture 90%+ of sexually active women 18-30 do.. of course this can be changed based on geographic location maybe, culture, etc. Seems like maybe hippy type girls might not. I'd venture most active, young, normal girls do. Probably less in the sexually inexperienced or "nerdier" type girls.

Older people tend to be less interested in shaving. No big deal, to each their own.

Yeah, though it has been said that "Women can fake orgasms, but men can fake entire relationships."

I do think location is a factor. Having lived in your part of the country (please take this in the spirit in which it's intended), trends there are often a couple years behind Chicago, and Chicago is often a couple years behind NY or LA, in my experience. This is something that I've just started to notice in the past couple of years in Chicago, which means I would expect it in Texas before long.

I've definitely considered that age could be a factor, but most of the women I date are younger than me, and I've noticed this with 20-somethings, too, not just 30-somethings. To be fair, I haven't been with 18-year-olds in years, so I have no idea what they're up to down there. If anything I expect people that young to be ahead of trends, though, not behind them.

What's worse? The reincarnate trolls or the people who argue with them?

So you are saying that "not-shaving" is coming back in "style"?

Maybe in the older people but I do not see it happening in young people. At least not like in the hot active young women and especially those into fitness.. The only girls with hair ive had over the past many years are those I expected it from for various reasons.

Yep, that was my point from the very beginning of this discussion. It's been happening gradually in recent years, from what I've seen. People are still "grooming" (I haven't seen any full-on 70's-style bushes come back yet), and some are still all-bald, but the all-bald thing appeared to gradually increase throughout the 90's, reaching its peak in the late 90's and early 2000's, and gradually decreasing in recent years.

I'm talking about women ranging from age 25-40 or so, and again, acknowledging geographic differences in adapting trends. Rural areas and the South are usually behind Midwestern cities, which are usually behind coastal cities. Even within in the Midwest I've noticed that the all-bald thing is still happening more in suburban, rural, and smaller cities more than in urban areas.

Of course we also have to both acknowledge that neither of us has likely been with a large enough sample size of women to be able to generalize our own experiences to the entire population, even within our age ranges and location. This makes me wonder if this has been studied scientifically.
