36. It's a little worse than that

Nothing counts until the male does it so HE is ultimately and solely responsible- and then gets to kick the spouse around anyway. This is social conditioning more than any God in the picture. So when the male supremacy itself gets devalued by failure the universal spiteful fallback is to point the finger down ticket at the insurgent sex. No it is not too morally inspiring. Paul's overarching take, minus the bad grammar, is that everyone has been doing since the beginning of whatever. Instead of fingerpointing, help would be appreciated instead.

Thanks for saying it. Curmudgeoness Sep 2015 #1
