What about you?

Single people couldn't get divorced last I checked, so I think it's just about us married fools.

Well I'm single (never been married) and I started the thread. Somehow all the feminist hostility applies to us single guys too be virtue of us being male--and especially male of white European descent. When you read an article like that though and realize how much the deck is staced against you, when you see that women are the ones doing the bailing on the relationship, it sure makes me ask why I would want to take the risk. I guess you just have to find a woman that isn't self-centered. And hot women that aren't self-centered? Woooh, that's isn't easy to find is it?

Just checkin'... I guess the same logic works for us divorced types, too.

Speaking of which..."Mongo, who initiated your divorce.. you or the woman...?". It was I, who initiated it.

I guess if folks like me did a better job of self-assessment and all that jazz BEFORE walking up to the altar, the divorce rate, REGARDLESS of who initiates it, would drop so it would seem -- because we wouldn't get married all willy-nilly for the hell of it.

I do believe it is time for the white male to start standing up for himself, but just like minorities need to I think the white male needs to look inward before looking outward to solve his issues.

I think the black male needs to take a harder look inside. 7 out of 10 black kids born to unmarried parents and 9 out of 10 black kids growing up with only 1 parent. Hey, maybe black guys are smarter than use white guys after all and all that stuff about SAT scores doesn't matter. I mean black guys don't even give black women a chance to divorce them. They just aren't around from day one!

BTW, I'll bet pimp daddy in your av there left mama right when that first kid was born. What do you think?

--EDIT Close enough. You just want to be banned, dontcha? --Lethemeul

No, don't want to get banned. No form of N-word is acceptible now? not even n-word?

I am well aware that mump95 and sophie are trying to bait me into saying the forbiddin n-word in order to get me banned. The word does not have the same meaning that it did in the 60's. I would hope you all would realize that.

Was your wife a feminist?

No "N-word". Period.

I think there should be some kind of requirement that a prospective couple must spend 2 weeks or so with a normal married family so that they understand what's about to happen.

I think too many people think "OH, it'll be like dating, only all the time, and I like dating him/her, so it'll will be fun all the time" and they are ill-prepared when reality smacks them in the mouth.

Why do you feel the need to use that word in any way, ez2? I don't care if it means the same as 40 years ago or not.

I don't buy into special treatment for blacks. Black guys use that word all the time. And "pimp daddy *****" is a phrase that black guys do use. As I have personally had over 350 hookers and had to deal with several "pimp daddy ******", I can assure you black guys use that phrase and even refer to themselves by that phrase. But white guys can't use that expression even if there is nothing racist about it? That falls under the category of more special treatment for blacks--and they have already had far more than enough. The funny thing is, most black guys are nearly as bothered by this word as most white people are. But, the moderators have made it clear to me in no uncertain terms that I am not to use that word, and I'm surely not going to test it anymore than I have. I will not use the word or any form thereof again.

EZ2, why do you feel the need to use that term anyway? What good do you hope to accomplish by using it?

This was the first introduction of race in this thread.

I hope you guys try to remain neutral in your decisions.

You know I'm by FAR an EZ supporter, but IMO he was baited by this:

I'll tell you what I think would suck (and this is from someobody who has never been married) is to get cut off by your wife. That would be hard on a marriage. I mean I would at least want to keep up with the national averge of 3.2 times/week. Know what I mean?

That justifies dropping a variation of the n-bomb?

When the freak are people cleaning house and washing dishes? 3.2 times a week? Freakin' liars. All of 'em.

So mump using the term white male gives him the right to use n****? Not buying it kev.

I have never shied (shy'd???) away from my thoughts on the Church. The answer is no across the board. I have no problem with women leading women, but it doesn't work with women leading men.

good, and your right. though many churches are going against the natural order and trying to shape the church to world, when its really at odds with the world. in our culture you run the risk of being labeled a sexist though on this point, so some are silent on it.

First of isn't it God who does the leading in churches not women or men.

What you are arguing is dogma not true religion?
