I'm sixty-two years old. When I go to stores and go through check outs. If the person is a young female, no matter what race. I always say "thank you dear". If it's an older Lady, no matter what race. I always say "thank you Ma'am". If it's a young man, no matter what race. I always say "thank you young man". If it's an older guy. I always say "thank you sir". I'm giving them respect and they remember me. Point I'm wanting to make is by me saying this, in todays culture and the Liberal mindset, does my being polite make me sexist ?

I my be opening a Pandora box of conflict with this thread, but what the heck -- Here goes and I have many points to make in order to allow a conclusion by anyone who wants to participate. Note: the topic of this thread has little to do with politics, rather the root causes of the antics being displayed on the news every day of late.

Many news stories and political diatribes are on the topic of man making unwanted advances towards women. The most recent started with the Washington Post attack on Roy More down in Alabama in a purely political move. Now the news stories are expanding onto other men.

Many women are appearing on the national news media demanding their rights and privileges be protected from these mean men. As well they might.

In laying a foundation for this thread I will tell you a little true story about one of my experiences and let's see if you can connect the dots.

Some time ago (as a young and naive man) I was working for Uncle Sam just outside of Washington D.C. Most every morning I would walk in the front door, move quickly over to the coffee counter, greeting many of the girls working the front desks and engage in chit-chat. Then once my coffee was safely in my hands I would move on to my work area in another room. This one morning the girls were chattering about their cosmetic choices in detail and the costs of the better brands. I (being a stupid man) piped up and asked "Why do you girls do all this?" One girl piped up and sent me back on my heels. She said "We do it for you guys of course!"

Can you see where I am going with this

Questions:

1. Unless you are a unnatural, unhinged, queer, can you understand the natural attraction men have to women and women to men. It is a natural triggering device to procreate and populated the earth with more little boys and girls - so they can do the same?

2. Can you understand the mental drive in most men to "conquer" the opposite sex and spread their seed?

3. Is there a natural drive in girls to attract men to their womb so they too can be more fulfilled in life's story? It is true I am not a girl and cannot fully understand their motives and methods so give me a little slack as I try my best.

4. If we are going to demand men stifle their natural desires should we then require women to contribute their share. Things like ending their use of lipstick, mascara, two piece and bikini swimsuits, revealing dresses... etc. etc. etc. to attract the opposite sex.

So, what do you think?

Thx Ghost. I think some of these accusations are just BS. A true feminist empowers women. "These so called feminists are just b****** that want to make men into girly boys so they have power over them. They know all they have to do is cry sexual harrasment...oh my God he accidently gave me a boob graze, or called me sweetheart, or God forbid told me I smelled nice and the man is branded as a sexual deviate whether true or not...insignificant or not. I really believe there is something mentally wrong with these women.

I think that both sexes are guilty. What I mean by that is Men do not have the rigt to sexually molest or even to talk sexual trash to women. These guys aren't men, they're boys, no matter their age. Too bad that so many people NEVER grow up. The women ARE NOT the helpless victims that the liberal media like to portray them as. If a woman goes out half naked, she should not be surprised when men treat them as sex objects. Even when a woman tries to get attention from men by the way they dress and behave, that doesn't give any one the right to harass them. But, if they go about advertising themselves as sex objects, they shouldn't complain when they're treated as such.
