Men use vacuum cleaners and men cook. I think it's silly to label such equipment as "feminine." Even a sexist guy who believes that cooking and cleaning is "women's work" has to learn how to do...

I hated playing with dolls. My favorite toys were rocket ships and I also loved collecting model horses.

No offense taken, It-ogo... I'm just tired of debating this subject. I don't feel like anyone really hears what I am saying, and so it's kind of like shouting in a hurricane. That doesn't mean I...

I could add a whole lot more here, because I disagree with what most of you are saying. But in the interest of maintaining peace on this forum, I am going to decline to comment more on this subject.

I completely disagree with you here. That is not my interpretation of feminism at all.



Yes, there had to be some actual working movement, or else feminism would have died with the...

No, no, I wasn't married when I went to the USSR. Maybe I didn't say that clearly enough. I was single, in my 20's and had feelings for one of the Russian guys I worked with, but it was "нельзя" -...

I dunno how bizarre it is. In my experience people are often contradictory. Good people can suddenly turn cruel. Cruel people can suddenly do something kind. People are walking contradictions,...

I understand what you're saying IT-ogo, but the problem is that you are completely cutting off the roots of feminism and why it arose in the first place. Feminism did not come to exist because men...

I agree with some of what you say, Red Fox,

But this statement disturbs me:



It sounds naive. And why is it always the victim's fault when things happen? For example, not all women who...

To a degree, you're correct. I'm just saying, don't live life according to generalizations because there are always exceptions to every rule :) There. Another generalization!

Perhaps. But if we live our lives expecting everyone to conform to our generalized notions, we end up getting surprised and/or disappointed.

Hanna, I was in love with a Russian man in my 20's! It was an impossible situation though. Soviet times. It was not condoned if you know what I mean. There were powers greater than both of us...

Oh I can't say I agree with that generalization at all. I've encountered men who hold very, very long grudges! That anger isn't always a short burst. It can last for years and take the form of...

I hear that! I got off the crazy career train a while ago when the news business started caring more about what was "sexy" than they did about facts. My last day in the biz, I pitched a story about...

I just think women should be paid equally as men, but should not have to turn into men.

On the other hand, I also support women in jobs which have been considered "men only" in the past. If...

What is the name of the Russian movie you posted above with the "cамая обаятельная и привлекательная" scene? It looked like it would be fun to watch.

I consider myself a feminist, but then again, my idea of feminism is not the same as the feminism I've heard some people describe. Do I think women should have as much opportunity to pursue their...

I can see the point you are making, but I don't agree that all women are more emotional than men. I've met men who were much more reactionary and emotional than myself. Usually the dominant male...

Of course there is pain. There is pain in every relationship. We argue, we fight, sometimes we scream at each other. But we are still best friends and after the fireworks end we make up again. ...

My husband can tell me anything he wants and vice versa. We are definitely buddies and I've had other male (non sexual) buddies, so yeah, it is very much possible! But I guess a lot of guys think...

Yeah, but Marcus, I felt terrible about it and I said so in my blog. The cop who screwed me didn't feel bad about what he did at all. He was actually PROUD of himself for using me! And also, I...

George Carlin had this all figured out anyway...

I typed this one up, so it would be easier to understand for those whose written comprehension of...

Because it is her CULTURE and it is what she's FAMILIAR with. I can't understand why this would be so hard to understand. lol

Because she is Russian, so she is naturally attracted to Russian guys. She didn't say she doesn't like them. She said she loves AND hates dating them. It is hard to find the right fit when you are...

She wants a man to make love to her like an alpha male, but not to control her in other aspects of life, I think.

Some Russian men are very handsome, imho :)
