I've been respectful while talking to you, and after the first time you were rude I gave you warning across the bow, and this is the second time. So ... if you want to go that route let's go that route.
CLEARLY you're uncomfortable with men being strong and powerful in their own right and you can't stand the thought that you won't be validated by women for your white knighting and virtue signalling, and still maintain any level of respect for men who are just being healthy, well adjusted men. I'm sure when you've got your legs crossed at the knee and you're pontificating with your lady friends over the latest new findings about commitment being discussed on "The View" you're quite the charmer and fop and they reward you for lap dog behavior with a few crumbs of reassurance that you aren't, in fact, just a weak simp who does their bidding. I don't mind that you are like that, the world needs people to pander to egos, and if you want to shed a few sympathetic tears and nods of understanding, that doesn't affect me at all, but if you want to sit here and act like that is going to go over among real men on a forum like this, I'm afraid you've got another thing coming. People here are analytical, grown, real men, who aren't ashamed of themselves, their masculinity, and don't feel they need to apologize for having male sex parts. Men here are happy being men, they feel that men's issues and men's desires are important, being half the population, and the real men here don't care about your tender sensibilities on these subjects. You want to hold your wife's purse, that's okay with us, you want a pat on the head every time you say what she and her girlfriends want to hear, that's okay with us too, but don't stand here and act like you speak for any actual men when you go off on these tangents. Like I said, I don't care what you do, you can hold your woman's hand while she lay with another guy so she doesn't have to feel oppressed, that's okay with me, I don't care what you do (I'm not saying that has happened, of course, I'm just saying .. you know, I'd understand if it had, I'm not here to judge)
So you want to keep going on this path, or return to having a respectful discussion ? Either way is fine by me, I can do this all day.
