I only said something about personalities? I was really good this time.
lol i like the "this time" part in there.

Whenever women have insisted on absolute equality with men, they have invariably wound up with the dirty end of the stick. What they are and what they can do makes them superior to men, and their proper tactic is to demand special privileges, all the traffic will bear. They should never settle merely for equality. For women, "equality" is a disaster.

I guess I am setting up my girls to really tick of misogynists. No, I don't have them vaping, but they both enjoy working on cars with me (I have a project street-rod--they have helped me tear down the engine, do brakes, oil, tires, etc.) They play video games and not ones that one could call girly. The older one plays an electric guitar. They both take martial arts. I'm basically raising my girls to be self-sufficient and not have to rely on a man for anything. The funny thing is that they still enjoy typically "girly" things as well.
Guess there are going to be a few disappointed ......s out there. When that happens, I'll know I've done my job.

Those of us accustomed to skating on the edge of double entendre tend to attract more trouble...lolWell, hey now. That's a major accomplishment for me. Most of you know.
Well Bravo to you, and your girls ... I personally reject the notion that a woman cannot be very feminine, and masculine at the same time. I Am .. how can I, not Be?
I was in a Best buy helping a friend set up a little home network, every time I would ask a question he would speak to the guy I was with. When we left he asked me if that happens often, he was pretty disgusted when I said ya. I was wondering when I became 'privileged' because that sort of stuff does not happen where I work now, I am a subject area expert in a field that for every 3 jobs there is 1 person. I guess I never realized how bad I was being treated till I got respect. Perspective is a weird thing.
I've had some great times trying to locate stuff at Best Buy, telling the salesbois (<---intentional spelling) what I intended to do, and having them tell me it is impossible when I know it isn't, that I've done it before successfully....lolI am a computer geek, and I make all of the computer buying decisions. I love going to Best Buy or other similar stores to buy computer stuff. I am with my husband, and they start talking to him. Then I start asking technical questions, and they get real confused.
As for vaping, the guys at the vape shop taught me how to build coils. It's not weird there for women to do so. At other vape shops, I have never encountered any bias because I am female.
I'm sorry, sonicdsl.
It won't happen again.![]()
Bwahahahahahaha!! OMG, I needed that laugh..If you can't keep it clean in here, we're going to have to close the thread.
Good luck with that.roger that.
note to self. keep from getting mixed up in zoe's evil plots.![]()
Plain and simple.....women get stuff done. I'm surrounded by way too many strong ladies to ever question their desire to accomplish anything. Especially if they're told they can't!
Oh lord that's my husband's favorite button to push. He's army, and for a couple years was assigned as a Drill Sgt. Well the command decided to let them have a "Jane Wayne Day" where us wives got to get a taste of basic training. With less screaming. So we did the obstacle course, and a short march...and "Eagle Tower". Eagle tower is a 60 foot wall they make the privates rappel down. Going up involves a very large ladder. The week before, I was talking about it and he said it.
"I can see you chickening out..."
I'll add here that I'm so afraid of heights I get vertigo on a step ladder. But those words...oh no. Oh HECK no.

First thing I said...or rather yelled across the field, when I got back on the ground and unharnessed?
"WHO did you say would chicken out?"
(Yes I'm wearing his uniform, we all were that day...lol)
