Maybe it's not about men at all.</i><br /><br />But...but...<i>EVERYTHING</i> is about men. And, more specifically, everything is about me. If you're not having sex with men, then that means you're not having sex with me. And if every woman decides not to have sex with me, then it must be because all women are man-hating lezbos.<br /><br />Furthermore, the fact that I'm not CEO of my company is the fault of all them uppity women getting in to management positions. And if I lose my job tomorrow I'm reasonably certain it will be because of all the damn immigrants sneaking over the borders and taking all the good corporate drone positions with 401(k)s and full benefits packages. Also, I'm getting taxed so poor people can buy Lexuses with food stamps.<br /><br />Did I get all of that right?<br /><br />Although, on a completely different note, I think I have a spectacularly bizarre attitude for a modern American. The best way I can describe it is like this:<br /><br />Say I am in a room with a whole bunch of people and all of them know me. I make the assumption that if I walk out of said room absolutely no one in that room will remember I exist in the next moment and will go on about their lives as if they'd never met me.<br /><br />Now, this probably sounds like it's too far in the other direction, and I objectively know that people don't forget I exist. But, still, the point is that I operate my entire life as if no one else considers me to be an important, central figure in theirs. That seems to be a reasonably healthy attitude to me...Gedshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15047239425466517786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1334761054277672365.post-31377692275236540632010-06-11T20:50:41.347-04:002010-06-11T20:50:41.347-04:00I always find it egocentric when men think that be...I always find it egocentric when men think that being a lesbian means that we hate men.

There are cases in the state Supreme Court currently with DCF trying to contest adoptions that have been allowed at the Circuit Court level. There are so many children out there that need good parents. I look at that study and feel relief at the thought that there might be actual evidence that another pool of capable parents is available. Rather than being threatened, or feeling that it says anything about <i>my</i> ability to parent with my husband, I'm happy at the thought that there is every reason to hope that we are one step closer to having more parents for all the children who need them in my state.Mariellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09276286373160055302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1334761054277672365.post-74757751489280291622010-06-11T11:12:48.520-04:002010-06-11T11:12:48.520-04:00I dunno, maybe I misread his point, but the guy wi...I dunno, maybe I misread his point, but the guy with the FPaPS actually seemed to be making a fairly valid point: even if this were universally true, rather than the result of sampling bias, so what? <br /><br />I mean, I don't find the results threatening, either personally or sociologically. I don't see how that study would endanger society, children, or traditional marriage. A lot of these responses seem to say more about the people responding than the results of the survey... and if that's the point that FPaPS was making, I'm inclined to agree.Michael Mockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06233321050691782148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1334761054277672365.post-85053076460924114122010-06-11T10:51:59.453-04:002010-06-11T10:51:59.453-04:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.DMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11389651479904502758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1334761054277672365.post-72264447373623565542010-06-11T09:58:16.831-04:002010-06-11T09:58:16.831-04:00There's really only one thing we can possible ...There's really only one thing we can possible say here:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/fischer-inescapable-conclusion-gay-sex-form-domestic-terrorism" rel="nofollow">If we connect the dots here, the inescapable conclusion is that gay sex is a form of domestic terrorism.</a><br /><br />I think that quote officially justifies the existence of the internet in my mind...<br /><br /><i>Da wimminz iz teh crazee!</i><br /><br />To be fair, I've done a highly non-scientific study of the women I've dated, the ones who seem to want to date me, and several of the women in my family and come to the conclusion that there is a high correlation between women and crazy. Of course, like any good believer in the scientific method, I continue searching for additional data points to either support my conclusion or show me that my statistical sampling has been off.<br /><br /><i>It's been suggested that (a) these were planned pregnancies, (b) there were no unplanned siblings, and (c) any lesbian getting artificially inseminated 25 years ago would have been educated, well off and quite strong, all of which, when combined with the fact that other studies show that homosexuals aren't any worse parents than heterosexuals, would explain the results. I tend to agree with this interpretation.</i><br /><br />This. When you consider that it's rather easy for, say, a seventeen year old girl who got abstinence-only sex ed in Tubthump, Tennessee to get accidentally impregnated by her boyfriend in a fit of being a real human being while it's rather difficult for a woman to accidentally impregnate another woman, I'd say there's an exceptionally strong sampling bias here. It's basically impossible for there to not be a strong sampling bias.<br /><br />And, hell, there's that case of the lesbian couple that had the kid and the one woman got all born again and has kidnapped the kid to save him from teh gai and possibly skipped the country. I'd say that's not good parenting.<br /><br />I'd also say that it's not the lesbianism that caused it...Gedshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15047239425466517786noreply@blogger.com
