Quote: I applaud your bravery in citing Dr. Schlessinger's book. It's come up before, and I found just CeMar and me agreeing with its main points, and she is a very controversial figure.
Why would he say such a thing if it were not for the attacks I have been receiving by some women, but most notably you.
I'll have to differ with you here Cobra. (woke up this morning -realized -no you arent Cemar.)
I see you saying that the male way of feeling and needing is valid. but the females isnt. thats what I get from your posts. Mrs. nop is saying a womans is just as valid.
They are different. Wommen hold on to emotional hurts longer then we do. Its how they are wired. Its not wrong of them.
We are hungry, and horny and get grumpy when its not taken care of. Its not wrong of us. Once again I am glad you realize your needs are valid, however you got there.
As is the case with anyone once they regain a little power or come into some new power, they tend to abuse it a little.
You have a lot of anger.(I understand) Its not an effective tool to staying in intimacy. You and your W have alot of bouncing in and out of conflict to do to get to intimacy. The anger is yours though. You chose to accept the treatment that caused your resentment at the time.
Once agin if you are comfortable with your position, yourself, secure, confidant, the tests wont bother you.
As far as Dr. Laura's book I find it far beneath the efforts expended by the vast majority of the women on this Forum. SSM.
Personally I'll take a strong minded, knows her self and her worth, feminist woman over a 'yes master' sub- serviant.
