    Default What's up with that?!

    I just posted an inductee of the Women Divers Hall of Fame, but considering I am the one who lobbied and got the Manly Man forum here so you guys can sit around and talk about your prostate issues, I got to thinking and decided to go see if there was a Men Divers Hall of Fame.

    Well I found an International Divers Hall of Fame, but you guessed it, there were women in it which is fine.

    Guys, I am with you on this one, I have no idea why women seem to make such a big issue over gender.....If there was a Men Only Divers Hall of Fame, Gloria Allred would sue and there would be a Congressional Inquiry and the media pundits would be hissing and clucking about women hitting "the glass ceiling" and the evil patriarchy.

    Guys, can I get an "Amen" on that?!

    And Segolene Royal is whining that she couldn’t get a majority of women to vote for her, while Roger Williams University has censored a group for offering a White Heritage Scholarship. PC has run amok and women should be insulted when they are referred to as a minority when they make up over 50% of the population.

    AMEN! Don't get me wrong I LOVE WOMEN, but it was nice to have a place were you could let it all hang out. PC sucks, I can only imagine what life lessons we are denying our children because some poor fool in the middle of nowhere may feel bad. Feeling bad is what got me off my butt and get out there. Getting beat at a game made me try harder and win a few. (It also taught me how a good sportsman should act) Now we don't even keep score.

    I just heard this morning on Bob & Tom that some actor has to announce to the audience that his play fetures a roasted chicken. This is so any vegatarians will not get upset.

    Oops I am ranting and I could go on pointlessly for a very long time, but I have to go now.

    I will close by saying I do not believe in name calling and I will respect all religiuos beliefs. However failure, used wisely can be a great teacher. Never being allowed to fail is like never taking off the training wheels.

    I am prepared to be flamed now...

    AMEN

    But then again, if there weren't so many f*$%ing lawyers ready to pounce over ANYTHING (which remember is ONLY about his/her bank account, not ethics), none of this would really even matter. I agree that women should be insulted, but it doesn't seem to matter (the double standard). Lawyers don't give a hoot because they walk away with a check - and, well, isn't that really what todays world is about?

    I say if women want to start clubs ONLY for women, why not call 'em lesbian clubs. This way no one pays any attention. Otherwise, making a stink about mens clubs becomes the achilles heel for what women were trying to achieve to begin with. Hmm, but I say again - it isn't REALLY about equality, is it.

    Women like to see men as stupid anyway, why did they ever even want to join mens clubs to begin with?

    Same double standard exists with these female teachers boppin the male students. Sure they get reemed publicly, but not quite to the degree a man would if he does the same with a female student. "He" is considered a 'rapist', while "she" has 'emotional problems'. err, not very logical.

    Dear phrenicnerve,

    Whilst I empathise with some your sentiments (mostly your feelings with regards to lawyers), I can't begin to tell you how many things in your post are upsetting to me as a woman!

    Anyway - all us girls want is to be treated with respect - especially when undertaking activities considered to be male orientated.

    There are things that women will never be able to do, for example pee standing up (we can try, but it just gets messy) and it is unlikely that you'll see a woman playing the in Super Bowl. But you may yet get a woman President, or major league football coach. These women will have had to work a million times harder than their male peers to make it, and it is likely that if they make a mistake it'll be blamed on their 'time of the month' or hormones or some such thing!

    I own a dive shop, and I don't know any other dive shops owned and operated by a woman. I dive everyday, but I still have to come home and run my home as well. (My husband 'helps', but he works full time too, and he's just too tired to worry about grocery shopping and cooking dinner, laundry, ironing etc...etc...etc...married ladies you will understand what I'm getting at here - love him dearly though! ) What I'm trying to say is that being a girl is not all about shopping, and shoes and bling - and not all women are completely devastated if they break a nail (although it is quite upsetting some times!).

    When a women has the strength to excel within an arena usually dominated by men it should be recognised and celebrated.

    By the way, in my experience the majority of Men Only clubs are an excuse to exclude - Women orientated clubs and organisations are used to promote, educate and celebrate.

    I think I might be a lesbian, I certainly like most of the same things?
