Trialbyfire Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 Of course women sometimes like to be dominated by men. I'm sure Marie Curie got turned on when Pierre took her on the lab table. I hope they avoided the bunsen burners and scalpels! No wonder she discovered penicillin. Necessity is the mother of invention!
You'reasian Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 Of course women sometimes like to be dominated by men. Like? Don't you mean love? But they like to take charge every now and then.
clv0116 Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 I hope they avoided the bunsen burners and scalpels! No wonder she discovered penicillin. Necessity is the mother of invention! Yeah, too bad that jackass Sir Alexander Fleming stole her discovery and then took credit for it. I blame the patriarchy. Bastard lying men.
Storyrider Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 Yeah, too bad that jackass Sir Alexander Fleming stole her discovery and then took credit for it. I blame the patriarchy. Bastard lying men. She was a chemist in the field of radioactivity so you're right, she didn't discover pennicillin...she discovered two new elements.
Trialbyfire Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 She was a chemist in the field of radioactivity so you're right, she didn't discover pennicillin...she discovered two new elements.Oops, my mistake! :)
clv0116 Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 She was a chemist in the field of radioactivity so you're right, she didn't discover pennicillin...she discovered two new elements. Wow, so after Sir Alexander Fleming stole the discovery of antibiotics, she still had a few tricks up her labcoat sleeve. What a woman. She was literally one in what, 10 or more billion?
Storyrider Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 Wow, so after Sir Alexander Fleming stole the discovery of antibiotics, she still had a few tricks up her labcoat sleeve. What a woman. She was literally one in what, 10 or more billion? Your sarcasm and derisive tone would be an inspiration to any woman with her own aspirations. I'm sure you'll attract exactly the kind of woman you want and deserve.
clv0116 Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 I'm sure you'll attract exactly the kind of woman you want and deserve. Seems to be working out so far, but of course I wouldn't OWN her.
Cherished Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Yeah, I'm sure the female slaves forced over here from Africa to be owned by white men just loved it, so why not?
burning 4 revenge Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Yeah, I'm sure the female slaves forced over here from Africa to be owned by white men just loved it, so why not? some probably liked it
Cherished Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Oh yeah, those slave ships, have you seen those? Luxury cruise they got.
neowulf Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 The notion of "ownership" brings with it a sense of responsibility. I in no way shape or form want to be "responsible" for my romantic partners life. I have a hard enough time making the decisions that are right for me. The last thing I want is someone saying "Oh, we'll do what ever *you* think is best". If I wanted that kind of life, where I had the final say in all my decisions, I'd be single forever. I don't want a "Pet", I want a life partner. A teammate. Someone who's going to pull me up and say "hey, you're being a jerk. Pull your head in", when that's what I need to hear. I want a women who'll take responsibility for herself, her mind and her stake in the relationship. Not just fob it off onto me because it makes things run "smoother" that way. At the same time, nothing turns me off faster than a women attempting to *control* my life. I'm an adult. I have my own mind, my own ideas and opinions. They don't have to agree with me all the time, but I'll be damned if I let someone walk all over me or try and decide what's best for *me*. So yes... for me personally, I'm not looking for my partner to be a possession.

burning 4 revenge Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Oh yeah, those slave ships, have you seen those? Luxury cruise they got. well it was better than being chased by tigers and crocodiles
Storyrider Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 well it was better than being chased by tigers and crocodiles There are no tigers in Africa, dingbat.
burning 4 revenge Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 There are no tigers in Africa, dingbat.well cannibals then id rather be a slave than be thrown in a couldron with peas and carrots
Woggle Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 I agree about not wanting to be responsible for another adult. I just want a woman who has her head screwed on straight enough to not cause a bunch of drama over nothing and I have found her.
Cherished Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Hey Burning, yeah, we should be so proud of our history of slave ownership and saving the Africans from Africa.
clv0116 Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 There are no tigers in Africa, dingbat. I just have to give you points for using dingbat in a sentence. It's a word that's not used enough anymore. You actually made me laugh on that one.
headlesschicken Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 didn't read the thread. but my answer is YES. i'm tired of being responsible for myself and want a man to own me.
taylor Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Who keeps us on our toes? Who on Earth wants that? Sorry, I don't want to live the rest of my life walking on eggshells, or on my toes. want a partner.. Life is challenging enough. I do not need to come home to a challenge as well. You take the word challenge in a negative sense. I meant it in a positive sense. I equate challenge with something or someone being "stimulating," "intriguing," "exciting," "fascinating," "interesting," and "unpredictable" (in a good way.) There are many men who enjoy women who challenge them intellectually...women who have a way of motivating men to be all that they can be..to be better men...women who inspire men to reach for the stars..to aim high. There are also men who have been married for years who still enjoy "the chase", albeit with their own wives. They like a little mystery and intrigue..a few unpredictable surprises in the bedroom..a little change-up..variety..from time to time. I would think men would tire easily in marriages in which the wife constantly repeated the mantra, "Yes, dear..anything you say dear." Wives that would conform to everthing their husband said and did would soon become doormats taken for granted. They would lose their individuality to the point the man would feel like he was..well...living with himself...instead of enjoying the company of a person whose uniqueness and individuality he admired and respected. When I think "challenge" I don't think "drama." I think of challenge as a good thing...as in the challenge of climbing a rock wall, solving a puzzle, realizing a goal. None of those challenges entail "walking on eggshells." If you are a female who does not want to be "owned" or "submit" then guess what? You are a play toy. Which is fine. You offer a much needed service to men who do not want to commit. My husband doesn't own me and I don't own him, but we do take care of each other. I am his play toy and he is mine. And I am happy to say we are committed to each other more now than ever. The one good thing is that men nowadays can easily sample hundreds of women before they find the wife they will marry. And women can do the same thing..they can easily sample hundreds of men, too, before they find the husband they want to marry. Men offer the same service. There are plenty of boy toys and bad boys for women to have a little fun with before they decide to settle down with the guy they know till knock their socks off as well as be a responsible, loving, supportive husband.
taylor Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 One of the girls I date keeps saying "You are mine 116" .... that sounds like ownership to me. When a woman says that she means she believes she "owns" your heart...or perhaps your body (depending on the context in which she says it). But what she DOESN"T mean is that she believes she owns your MIND. Boxing believes a man should own a woman's mind as well....as if she doesn't want or need to think on her own..ever..cuz she has a man to do that for her. Why on earth did women ever learn to read and write.
Woggle Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 I like fun, surprises and excitment with a woman but not negative drama. There is a huge difference. I am sure most women would not want negative drama with a man though some act like they are addicted to it. A surprise in the bedroom is a good thing but causing a scene in public and embaressing the both of us is not a good thing.
taylor Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Give a woman a baby to raise in a cave, and I bet she will have more fulfillment, and more of a purpose, than if you put her alone in a mansion and give her a a high paying job. I believe men are also more fulfilled when they have offspring to raise. Nothing can compare in value to your own offspring...no job, no mansion, no job..for a man or a woman. Women are very easy to manipulate.. Tell them to wear a burka, they get used to it. Tell them to work, they get used to it. Tell them to raise kids, they get used to it. Men are not easy to manipulate, their role has been more constant. It isn't that women are easier to manipulate. It's just that women are more adaptable. We are multi-taskers by nature. We can change a diaper, change a tire, make dinner, make a work deadline and make love..all in one day. No one TOLD us to do any of these roles. These roles were made availabe to us and we CHOSE to take on whatever roles we wanted. The beauty of choice. Men's roles are more constant because society still does not accept men in roles that are traditionally female...It has nothing to do with manipulation. So, how much of modern women today is manipulation, and how much is them doing truly what they want? I believe most women truly want to be taken care of, if they admit it or not.. Even the most strident feminists seem to state they want a man that makes as much money, a man that plans, a man that pays on dates, the choice to stay home with a baby if they choose, etc. Many women today simply seem to be lost and confused. Try it. Ask one of these women what they want, and see what kind of an answer you get. They will either not even know, or give you some fairy tale answer that is impossible to obtain. Women are doing what they are doing today for two reasons: necessity or because they want to. It has nothing to do with manipulation. Yes, a wife wants a man to take care of her; BUT a husband also wants a wife to take care of him. It's a mutal caring for each other. It's called love. I think the problem you are having is you can't seem to wrap your head around the concept of a woman being able to be independent as well as having the desire to have a husband care for her. It is possible to be both at the same time. Men want the same thing. They want to be independent. Go to work every day...think...make important decisions...Yet they want to come home and have their wives take care of them. It is a known fact that men who have been married a long time have a much harder time coping and adjusting to everyday life after the loss of their spouse than wives do who lose their husbands. It seems men become much more dependent on their wives to take care of them than women do.
SpanksTheMonkey Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Just wondering how would their value be determined? would some women be cheep others expensive except when on sale? 50% off after Christmas left over stock? were would the price tag be put ouch that could be painful..
