This is not another one of my women bashing threads but I have this question. Yesterday I was out with my SO at the supermarket trying to figure out what I was going to make for dinner that night. I am known for my skills in the kitchen and while I don't cook all the time yesterday we got the urge to make something. I aksed the girl at the courtesy desk if they had a certain ingredient and a woman who overheard me was like wow you cook like she had discovered some new scientific breakthrough. It seriously blew her mind that I was the one cooking. I have also noticed other examples. When I was single my place was spotless and when I had women over they were shocked that I kept my place up on my own like that. Do women really think that men are incapable of taking care of our basic needs without them?

 

This is all stereotyping and this lady was not meaning to demean or insult you.

 

Are you telling me that you wouldn't be surprised/impressed if you met a woman who worked on her own car?

I do this. (to-a-point!)

 

Nothing funner then seeing the look on mens faces when they see me put air in my tires, change my oil, --once I took apart my whole back panel and changed every tail light and blinker bulbs in the Auto Zone parking lot. (I had no working taillights or blinkers in my 90 buick century).. I bought the correct bulbs I needed including the socket brush, the lube for the bulbs.. As I was working on my car several SEVERAL men seen me and stared in amazement that I was tearing apart my car and fixing it myself. When I change my oil the men in my bldg ask me if I want to change theirs too when I'm done..

 

I don't take a mans surprised look as insulting. I look at it as if 'I'm a great catch."!

Sorry but I'm anything BUT naive. I don't see how MY view is sad. I have a great man! How is that sad? He treats me like a queen. I must be doing SOMETHING right.

 

And you're not discriminating at all. You're just burying your head in the sand and taking the easy way out.

 

Touche, and Woggle. Can't we say that the general consensus is that most women do not agree with the thoughts of Kitten Chick here?

 

I think that was proven... First Woggle, you say that you find it condescending. Plenty of women have proven otherwise to you here that it's not to be interpreted as condescending but it actually something as we see as being a good quality because it's not one that it always present in a man? Fair enough?

 

Touche, I think you hit it on the nose! I think that a woman who feels so negatively towards men has been through plenty of issues and this just may be the cause.

 

Kitten chick, maybe if you change your outlook you'll have better experiences. I commend you for not dating as you don't appear to be ready to put yourself back out there. Work on yourself!

The one that impresses me the most is a woman that can use power tools...

 

Also something about a chick in a tool belt...

I asked my BF to teach me how to use our tools. I want to learn how to use a mitar saw & table saw.

 

I want to build my daughter a tree house but as it stands I don't even know how to use a drill. :o

start out by getting some plans for a tree house.. google them or look for a book about building treehouses..

 

Then go from there.. Tools are not hard to use and he should be able to chip in and help ya.

It's subtle male bashing when women are shocked a man can take care of himself.

 

No, it's flabbergastedness that a man can take care of himself. Case in point: a male relative of my former spouse once proudly declared that he couldn't even boil water. Remember, men thought women were born to serve them and that such work was 'beneath' them for a long time. So to find a fellow who actually will do such things without expecting praise and a special place in heaven is astounding.

 

If a man can cook and clean and do laundry for himself then woman is good only for blowjob and anal sex.

 

Oh not really. I won't have anything to do with a man who can't take care of himself. I have neither need nor desire to be a mother or a maid and if a man can't feed his own self or wash his own laundry, he can apply elsewhere. It means he's either lazy or spoiled and neither quality is attractive. This doesn't mean I won't cook or clean; of course I will - but because I want to, not because I have to or it won't get done. And it's fun to do things like cooking together - and hot, too :) And it's lovely when you get things 'done for' you once in a while.

 

Simply for this reason (in my case) most men I meet are kind of like momma boys. They are use to mommy taking care of them: doing their laundry, cooking for them, picking up and cleaning after them. So when they go out iinto the world on their own they struggle to do those things for themselves because they always had mommy to do them for them.

 

Exactly! Spoiled babies that never learned to be adults who could care for themselves. ICK!

The one that impresses me the most is a woman that can use power tools...

 

I own my own power drill and I know how to use it! :cool:

I don't care what women think about me... I simply ignore the ones who think they're my mother. Backhanded compliments? Loaded questions? Double entendre? I flash a quick smile and go about my business.

 

Considering that my mother is the second oldest of 10 sisters, I have to put up with a lot of motherly s***. Sometimes they're a pain in the ass, but I love them anyway.

 

It pays to have a short-term memory sometimes. I'm getting better at this, I hope.
