TIG, if you actually read what most people posted, it is anything BUT mysogynist and actually targets the MAN's behavior, and doing something, not the female.
Regarding man's behavior, women don't want men who lack self-confidence, have low self-esteem, etc. How do we know this? We know this because men who lack these things are not getting the attention from women that they'd like, simply put. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to put two and two together. Sometimes, when men are ambitious, agressive(not overly), confident, then women are willing to look over other flaws(like being a jerk), because the good out-weighs the bad. Again, this is a generalization, but often true.
Masculinity, as DE23 points out, is less of a physical thing, than a behavior.
No one is suggesting men put down women, disrespect them, etc. I guess you can, if you aren't a heterosexual male, who might want to get laid in this century...
I don't think SE23's and my conversation was mysogynist, to plainly put it, and I don't thin I've said anything here that Rei, MissTNT, Kaiserscharm, etc. would find offensive. I think women should be treated well, with respect, as intelligent, and as a different equals. "Viva la difference!", as they say! That, and if I was a mysogynist, my wife would kick my ass!

PoD wrote:I can't imagine why women would not want to come to a political forum where they are told what they think about politics.Who did this? Even so, as there are female posters here, it's quite obvious that women who are interested in politics, and enlightening others, as to their views, can change that.
