^ this is true

the first part about American men, the rest nope.


You should blame that on feminism and single mother households.

We should just blame it on men who leave women. How does that sound?

DO. NOT. TAKE. THE. BAIT. I repeat, do not take the bait!!!!!!!!!!

Lololol, unintentional humor is the best.

Single women, I mean really AG? You could have least put effort into your women blaming this time.

Then don't wh ore yourself.

There's officially frowned upon, and then there's tolerated because he's rich and powerful and she's his woman. It's an old story, and no woman was ever burned at the stake for being a big shot's mistress.

Thanks for linking that great piece, PJ. The best argument for wife over mistress would seem to be stability, but there is none even in marriage. Thanks to the feminists, of course.

Believe me I won't.

They might as well have been persecuted back then. They were taken from their homes and not always treated as highly as people like to think. They were there for one purpose and still are to this day, but I believe the correct terminology for today's standards would be one night stands, extramarital affairs, or mistress. Who would want that torture, heartache and headache?

You can in some jurisdictions persecute the individual and be sued by the spouse. If only 52 other states followed.

There is stability in many marriages, I wouldn't say all aren't that's a little over the top. The best argument is that one is legitimate and honorable, and the other is not and only has one purpose, which is sex.

Concubine isn't used in the correct terminology here anyway. A concubine was used back in polygamist societies, which we don't live in anywhere today.

The men they choose are unreliable, whose fault is that? And besides statistics show that women initiate over 70% of divorces, so who is really leaving?

Divorcing and leaving two different things. Men can be divorced and still there with the kiddos and everything. Right?

Thank you for your logic and reasoning! My Cap mercury can't take the rest of the f@ckery in this thread.

Between Rick Santorium comparing the Hobby Lobby situation to Nazi Germany and trying to come at single mothers being a problem for submissiveness by quoting marriage statistics, I seriously cannot.

The Mayans: why you do this to me!?!?! The world should have ended two years ago!

Karka: what is your definition of concubine? The traditional version or the pay for play Dubai 'vacations' women seem to go on.

The word concubine was used in the 18c and 19c too

In a what? A polygamist society. Not in current society. The correct term would be mistress.

My point was you can't blame it all on men. Karka repeatedly b*tches that modern men aren't manly enough. Well guess what? Those men who aren't manly enough are raised by single mothers and are taught to put women on the pedestal. Would you not say that mothers have influence over the children they raise?

Aquaguy, seriously. Look at all the gang members raised by single women. They are all macho and they have no respect for women. How do you arrive at these conclusions?

look at Marshall Mathers. Would you say he puts women on a pedestal lol. Not even.

You people on this forum always want to bring up the exceptions to the rules.. Most men are not in gangs.. Nor are they famous rappers. You could also consider teenage boys joining gangs as an unhealthy attempt to find adult male role models. I was watching a show about prison life a few months ago and they interviewed a young man who was serving a life sentence, he was about my age. When he was asked why he joined a gang his response was "to get girls". Now, why would a young man have the idea in his head that being a gangster is attractive to women? Could it be that his mother and other women in his life taught him that they are through their actions?

You just complained about isolated examples and instead came up with your own.

DeepFreeze, I seriously just cackled because I am literally eating popcorn right now!

Could it be that his mother and other women in his life taught him that they are through their actions?

Da fuq does this have to do with concubines?

One man saying joined a gang for women= everyone.

Why is it when there is a gender thread that poses an interesting subject to be discussed it turns into a women are evil, are to blame, but men are innocent debate?

My point was you can't blame it all on men. Karka repeatedly b*tches that modern men aren't manly enough. Well guess what? Those men who aren't manly enough are raised by single mothers and are taught to put women on the pedestal. Would you not say that mothers have influence over the children they raise?

My point: this thread isn't blaming it all on men. Karka took a direct quote from the 'author and gave her opinion. No one else in here has said 'men are evil,' 'what a jerk, how could be do that to his wife,' or 'this is all men's fault.'

You know the feels Karka has on American men and you replied because there was your opportunity to make it all about you and your issues with women. Can we please stay on topic?
