Can anybody explain why the nature of things is such that when men get drunk they... ummm, soften...
But when women get drunk... whoa!
Is there some deep psychological/anthropological explanation to this, because I figure things would just be real nice if for once the sexes could get on the same wave length... |

What do you mean by "when women get drunk .. whoa!" ? Are we just saying that our natural inhibitions are surpressed by alcohol?
I'm not a died in the wool feminist or a man-hater but there is one thing I think very unfair about the male/female divide. That's the fact that men expect women to behave in a certain way. You seem to like uninhibited women who like to let loose and have a good time but only in certain circumstances. You wouldn't want your wives/girlfriends/mothers etc. to behave that way. And it's not just men who are guilty of this kind of judgement passing, we do it to each other too. You're right, if we could all be on the same wave-length, life would be a lot more fun.
Hey Blast, see that? I had a serious thought enter my head ..... don't panic ...... it's gone now ........ whose round is it?

Your good health Claire
I've spent days trying to solve a USB problem and right now I could drink myself into a coma just to escape it but I'll keep a clear head (until later at least)
In the meantime how about you and I discuss cars, football and big-breasted women, fart, belch and write our names in the snow. Then maybe these blokes will know we're on their wavelength

Gosh lilliebet65, it seems like you are upset about something - its almost as if your significant male "other" had given you a power drill for Christmas instead of the diamond necklace you coveted.
All men are not pigs. Most of us are not interested only in ....well you know. The thing that most men desire above all else is to place their wife/girlfriend on a pedestal and cater to their every whim (flowers, candy, back massage, etc).
As for being on the same wavelength, I'm not sure that I'd want my wife/girlfriend to fart and belch, although, given the geometry of the female anatomy, I'd pay $10.00 (US) to see a woman write her name in the snow (no hands of course).
As for the other wavelength items, will Michael Schumacher repeat in 2004? How 'bout them Steelers? Besides her magnificent voice, what two attributes make Dolly Parton such a talented entertainer? |

K027 I think you've got me all wrong. I don't think all men are pigs at all. You will note I said men were not the only ones guilty of categorising women if they behave a certain way and your comments about placing your wives/girlfriends on a pedestal and not wanting them farting/belching bear out what I'm saying. If a man goes alone to a pub, has several drinks and swaps dirty jokes with the other men there, he will be "one of the lads", "a great bloke" etc. If a woman does the same thing she'll be thought of very differently.
I don't want to preach about this, it's just an observation of how different things are between the sexes.
