Do you view women as having different value/rights/responsiblities than men based purely on their sex?

Are you sexist? If so, let us know/don't respond and we will get it. If not, explain the position you have taken. I am curious about it.
I'm curious, too. If women wanted to be treated equally, they should man up and be able to take a few hits every now and then. I also think they should help pick up the tab for Valentine's day, parties at strip clubs, and tickets to a sporting event.

ok, i also had to promise her my buying the z didn't mean i wanted to be single. it was only one fight.

also, man... i feel for you guys who picked up the z after a marriage gone bad. glad you guys found something to dull the pain. my buddy's marriage is going south, and he's now pimping his new is-f. at least cars don't cheat!

A lot of the women I am friends with do share the cost of things we do togather equally. About 6 months ago my friend Traci bought me a nice pair of Mizuno's for running. Then she paid for my gym membership initiation fee in exchange for me training her. It's not about money, it's about equality. I cover the tab sometimes, and sometimes my friends do.

Anything based on the sex or race of the individual is just an admission that that individual isn't as good as others. If that person accepts/supports it, they just agree with the assessment and should be treated as such.

Are you Sh@@ting me? Some of the folks on this sight just amaze me. Are you saying YOU think it's right to hit a woman? I'm not saying they can't push your buttons to the point that you want to do it, but it's just flat out wrong. Maybe I'm sexist, but if a guy wants to take his chances with me, that's his problem. However with a woman, it's a safe bet I'm stronger and she's going to get hurt. It's just not the right thing to do and if you think other wise than you need to go talk to your dad and grow up.

Well, if you would stomp a guy clearly weaker than you but not a woman, then I guess you are sexist, no maybe to it.

Good? Bad? I'm not one to judge, but I will tell you that if you would hit either a guy or a girl just because they "push your buttons", you need to take a dose of your own advice. Physical violence should be reserved for sporting purposes or self-defense, and I don't care what the sex is of the person who poses a legitimate threat to me. In that sense, yes I would hit a woman, as many times and as hard as necessary to prevent damage to myself/others, if it were required. Other than that, I wouldn't hit anyone, man or woman. The last time I hit someone out of anger was in grade-school, and that's where that behavior belongs.

Reading this thread at work is a bad idea. I have had to people walk by my office asking why I was laughing at the computer.


My wife was happy I bought the Z being that I was looking at a $60k Corvette first.

I just said "I'm buying this car" and bought one the first week they were out.

and I am against hitting women (felt compelled to include this part for some reason)

I just went to the dealer and bought it, drove it home. Asked my wife to drop me off at Nissan to pickup my dd that I left there. No story to tell...

I don't believe in hitting women but I will nuetralize the situation. If I have to wrap them up and hold them down till they come to thier senses and quit trying to attack me, that is that I will do. I haven't hit anybody in years. I don't start trouble with people and let most of what people say roll off my back. But my build is usually enough of a deterant for most. I have run into guys that look for the biggest guy in the room that they haven't fought just to see of they can take them. I have only met a couple of those guys, and I know what they are doing so what they say doesn't get under my skin. I don't care what size the man is if he wants to look for ttrouble and is willing to make me feel threatened I will do what I have to. This goes for all living things. I have killed dogs that growl at me if they aren't in their yard. I don't care. I don't like threats.

Well, well. I had no idea that Western Oklahoma was the new home of the intelligentsia.

Well, to sort of get back on topic, ahem:
My wife came home one day and said "we need to buy you a sports car."
I spent a week or so driving various cars, and settled on the Z. She came and hung out with me at the dealership while I made the deal.

She had just finished a Master's degree (which cost 1/2 the price of the car) while also working full time. During that time I took over a lot of household workload so she could focus on school. She is very happy with the new job her degree brought her, and wanted to spread the joy. Mission accomplished, I'd say....

That is a great story -- and on topic. Thanks.
