It isn’t untrue for me to say that with some women, I just accept I’m always wrong or need clarification. They think I’m being funny when I say, “I’m always wrong,” and I do say it with a humorous tone, but behind the tone, the words themselves are truthfully expressed feelings. Of course, these same women would explain to me why feeling that way is wrong, so why bother going further.

My experience is that many women don’t seem to actually have respect for men. It’s not the same disrespect many men have for women, but definitely disrespect nonetheless.

No one is a saint here…the most self-professed open-minded folks tend to be anything but.

Tell me why I’m wrong 😜
