Am I allowed to bash women?

Because I'm going to.

This story and subsequent book really annoys me. It makes me understand the enormous divide between men and women, and domestic abuse. It reinforces the idea that women have to change men.

Why?? Only women, as a whole,(pardon the pun) get in to a relationship thinking, 'If I could get him to stop doing this and wearing that, things would be perfect.'

Why not get into a relationship accepting the other person as they are? Men accept each other with their flaws and all. They may rip each other constantly over them, but they get over it and have a beer.

I do appreciate that one of these women advises her sisters not to take things so personally and that a man's every move does not reflect his love of his mate, but this whole subject pisses me off. Grrrr.

I like to remember a truly wise man's motto: "I am what I am."

Lets all raise a can of spinach to Popeye. Here, here.
