Well, the only objection I could try offer for that would be : to try and eliminate problems derived from gender-biased teachers. Otherwise however, I think that's an excellent idea. (and to hell with those kinds of teachers anyway) I don't know much about learning styles, but it might be even more beneficial to try and split it into 3 (or more) styles. This way it's no longer reinforcing a gender dichotomy by having 2 splits, where each class generally has more of a particular gender.

In one day the class will go over five or even seven subjects, perfect for girls. Where as boys respond well to one topic until it's finished for the day. I would not necessarily attribute this to the "men are hunters" idea, but I do agree with the quoted paragraph. For this reason I would support the idea of separated classes for girls and boys up until a certain grade level. Not because one gender is better, but because each tends to learn best via different methods.

Any man is capable of monogamy, as is any woman, IMO. But that doesn't mean they'll be happy if they try and do it. Due to (relatively recent) societal traditions, far too many people have it stuck in their head that monogamy is the most noble and acceptable standard, and that polygamy is only practiced by weirdos in Utah. As a result, far too many couples are formed between people who aren't truly suited for monogamy, but neither is willing to admit it. Some would be perfectly happy with an out…

IMO, there is a vulnerability. The reason being that if I display emotion of some sort, a potential enemy will learn what I love and what I fear. Both of these things can be used against me, either by attacking or depriving me of the thing I love, or confronting me with my fear. That said, I try not to play into the stereotype as much as I can, but I find myself in this line of thinking from time to time. The belief that portraying myself as impenetrable, unfeeling rock gives me strength. And it…

Her ego isn't something that should be factoring in very heavily here. If she's making you uncomfortable, say so in a clear but considerate manner. If it doesn't stop, go over her head to HER boss, and inform them of the situation. Make sure someone else who is respected knows what is going on.

The author does make an attempt to sound like it's a discrepancy between breadwinner/homemaker, but in all of his examples, it's a female>male illustration. I'm inclined to agree most of his arguments, but I'm not sure why he made the attempt not sound misogynistic when the rest of the article is clearly aimed and arguing that men are the new victims.

The point he is trying to make is a valid one, but he's using a stereotyped image of a married couple to illustrate a point about how marriage is no longer that stereotyped image. Which doesn't really help his point.

I interpreted it slightly differently. While it is wild conjecture to state that "circumcision causes rape", I think what he was attempting to illustrate was that the data seems to indicate that the societal environment that condones and encourages circumcision is also contributing in a major way the aberrant suicide/rape behaviors we observe later in life.

The article is conjuring discrimination where none exists. If they say n people are trapped, that's all we really need to know isn't it? Human life is in danger, and we should be concerned about them, regardless of gender. The author's point of some articles mentioning "many of whom where women" isn't all that important to me. It would be nice if they just said something like "there where 48 men, 27 women, and 12 children", but honestly it doesn't really bother me.

Are we discussing the actual enacted law, or are we discussing the author's opinion of it? Because those are two distinct things. The article author is obviously very happy with the law because she believes it promotes feminist rights. Weather it does is up for debate.

I don't think your similie is accurate. Your example uses 2 specific demographic groups, and violates the rights of both. This issue is about people's rights in general. It includes mens rights, but mean are not being singled out here. Note that the Icelandic law "prohibits any business from profiting from the nudity of employees". It does not specify gender. So male strippers are eliminated as well, and using your logic, violating the rights of women as well. We both agree that the law is stupi…

Technically, this isn't a mens rights issue. This is more of a women's rights issue, and really it's just a rights issue. This is unfairly restricting the right of a person to do what they want with their body. Is human trafficing, drug abuse, etc a reasonable concern? Sure. But what do you think will happen now? IMO this will backfire even harder than alcohol prohibition in the US did. People like their beer, but people like sex even more.

I think you're unfairly nitpicking over the way the writer chose to word his statement. I agree, sexuality is no longer a black-or-white discussion, it is a spectrum. However in the context of his writing, he is not addressing sexuality at all. He is discussing how the fundamental difference of being born XY or XX affects a child's ability to learn and develop. Whether that knowledge is used to help or hinder the child in discovering their sexuality is entirely up to the parents.

I have never been married, but in all the relationships I've been in, I've never felt compelled to cheat.

I would keep calling, or just show up at their door and ask them for help. If they refuse, talk to a superior, and then their superior, and escalate it up until someone takes you seriously. Once upon a time, yes, it was this difficult for women to get help. Now it's easier and they can get the help they need to escape bad situations. So now we have to work to make the world recognize that the problem isn't as one-sided as we used to think it was.

Based on what he has stated so far, she has not. So this is the assumption we have to make until told otherwise. Given this assumption, the logical step is to get out.

Alternatively, as I remember from some TV show (totally legit source of legal advice) - just get a short 10sec video before and after of both of you stating your name and that you are both willing participants.

I can't say I really disagree with anything in the article really. But the tone of it makes me uncomfortable. It feels like it is encouraging women to never hesitate to throw out the rape charge.

Now it's just a matter of moderation. The reason MR is even an issue is because a select few women have gone way overboard in promoting women's issues.

If you can't accept it, then perhaps getting married is not for you. :edit: disclaimer I have never been married or engaged.

Stellar qualifications to me implies they both come with stellar recommendations from other qualified people. Personal recommendations go a long ways in dissolving my preconditioned bias. Personally I would be more hesitant with the nanny, but that has more to do with being overly protective and uncertain about leaving my offspring with a person I don't fully know yet, regardless of gender.

Absolutely true. :) I think thats what happens the majority of the time really. There's just a difference in the primary motivation between the genders.

Venting for the sake of venting is generally perceived as whining, and real men don't whine, they "suck it up" and go do something about it. As a guy, if I approach another man with a problem that I have, I am admitting that I am incapable or unwilling to deal with the problem using my own resources. I am acknowledging their superior ability or experience in dealing with this particular situation. I am also trusting this other person not to point out my inadequacy and humiliate me, either privat…

IMO the article takes it a little overboard, but as you say, there is a grain of truth in it. It's true, things got a lot easier relationship wise when I learned that most of the time when a woman vents to you about something, she's not asking you to fix anything. This is reversed from when men vent to other men, they are usually implying that they would like your help or advice with the situation. And I agree, encouraging men to share for the sake of sharing would help increase a lot of people'…

IIRC, this directly correlates with the percentage of women who have been sexually abused, doesn't it? It seems abuse has no gender bias.

I agree with the basic premise, I like very much the idea of people perceiving me as an honorable person. The linked article smells like a book ad though. Is there a link to the actual study? :edit: Found the source study Journal of Sexual Medicine. That's the abstract summary, you'll have to register and pay for the full text of the study.

I don't understand, liability for what? This kind of arrangement should seemingly be left up to the 2 individuals, or since one is I assume a minor, the minor's parent/guardian?

That seems like a fairly bad idea. If the relationship was having a positive impact, why wouldn't they allow it to continue after release?

Guy has an obvious stick up his ass due to some wrong (perceived or actual) done to him by "tehm damn wimmins!" at some point.

Neither should be damned. Nobody's saying that women should not be allowed to dress however they like. It's really sad that you can't bring this up in a modern workplace. This should be no more trouble than pulling a friend aside before a big meeting and giving him your tie because the only one he had today was bright yellow and has a coffee stain on it. Real coworkers look out for each other.

Spoken like a disillusioned old timer. [tongue-in-cheek] Stereotypes exist for a reason. But the only way they're going to change is if someone tries to change them. Why not hold out for that gal who doesn't make me lose faith in my ideals? Maybe I'll end up a alone. Maybe not.

There are some, I've met them. From this article's POV though (and from anyone I grew up with), porn is a terrible, life-destroying thing that civilized people do not discuss.

Am I the only one that detests the idea of sneaking around and lying all the time? Sure white lies are necessary, not just with the ladies, but to make life tollerable for everyone. This entire article makes me think most married guys (I'm not) finally just get so desperate to settle down that they pretend to be someone they're not. If I ever get married, the wife will not only be aware of the porn, but what my preferences are.

Also, you're a redhead. Redheads are hot. Wanna hook up? (I'm so joking) I like OKC, but it's a sad fact that the people on most any dating site will be self-selectively biased to be somewhat socially inept (myself included).

Rather, "Why would I buy a cow if I have no idea how to acquire one or care for it?". That seems to be the sentiment here. Gotta learn the way the rest of us did. Go out and make a complete fool of yourself. I managed to convince my 22yr old brother of this finally. Very nice, intelligent guy, never had a girlfriend. I told him to out and intentionally make a total ass of himself. Accept that you will fail, then figure out why afterward, and try it again.

Is it really only 15%? I find this very surprising (no sarcasm). Granted I did grow up in a Christian home and so the idea of it was normal, plus most online porn (that I view anyway) shows only circumcised males. I had never even really given the entire concept a second thought until I ran across an article 6 months ago on the dangers of it and how many men where actually taking steps to try and regain what they lost.

I would be interesting in learning more about this too, if you can find some articles or remember the name of the phenomenon. It makes sense, but needs some research to back it up.

When you find one, let me know if she has a sister.

Depending on where you live, things may be changing. I live in Phoenix AZ, and own a LAN center, where (as you would correctly assume) the majority of my patrons are male. I am seeing the beginnings of change in the general attitude of younger males toward males who exhibit "less masculine" behavior. There is the usual fixation with bacon and fucking, but there are frequent honest discussions about relationships and things as well. I'm encouraged.

To be fair, your father probably thought he had your best interests in mind, as did mine. This of course does not make it right, nor do intend to carry on the tradition assuming I have the opportunity, but I do not hold it against my father.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
