I Have No Clue...

Lets' see--NORMAL--What is that &WHO deciedes?

Have friends who have monogamas relationships-swingers & everything in between(they know& accept us for us!

Allso have gay friends(some married-couples where either the man or woman is bisexual!

My wife& I have a hotwife/cuckhold marrage(at this stage of our life)--We & our friends consider it normal (for us)!

Having "Warped" ideals about men(or women for that matter) must meen you sterio types about how men & women "Should" be!

Thank you! I agree on raising children without enforcing or imposing fixed gender ideas. They'll chose for themselves anyway. I disagree on the hunting part, but that's probably a cultural difference.

But no matter how you raised them, men still act and think different. Society still treats them different too, unfortunately.

At my work, male colleagues were taken more serious and were paid more. I still have the impression we have to work harder, both at work as well as at home. I had the feeling I was having two jobs, one paid, the other was taking care of the family. I'm not saying I didn't get any help from my partner, but I was doing most of the house-hold and care for the children.

I use to think that males and female weren't that different, because I raise two boys and I taught them to be human beings first, and then males second. I let them play with dolls so they would learn to nurture. And now my oldest son is a good father and I know that my youngest son with also be a good father because I've seen him with his niece. My oldest is more aggressive and I think it's because his father would wrestle with him until he wouldn't stop until he got into trouble and was scolded. I didn't like it and I didn't want the youngest son to wrestle like that. I let them play with guns and they went to hunter education class when they turned 12. I think that is a good idea for anyone who plans on hunting.

But any way what I'm tryng to get at is that by raising my boys to be caring loving humans, it didn't make them any less a man. They each have a beautiful women to share their lives with and they are hard working intelligent young men that I'm proud of and love very much.

I have wondered what it would feel like to be a man. I think men are listened to more than a women. I think a man is under a lot of pressure to take care of his family but a women is under a lot of pressure also. I think a man should back up his wife and help her to nurture and discipline their children. And I think a wife should back up her husband also so he can take better care of his family. If men and women would work together instead of against each other then they would have much better relationships.
