The flood of people saying women are evil and men are dogs?
This has been bothering me... So many people now are constantly asking where the good ones are. People say there are good women and real men out there. Men constantly talk about what their women do wrong while they themselves aren't treating them right, and women gripe about how wrong the man was when she was in the wrong even more.
When will people learn they aren't treating the people in their lives as well as they think?
Do men actually think they just have to physically be around or throw money and gifts at the problems and the gift of being with them is enough?
Can't women be with a man without trying to castrate him and turn him into some whipped pup instead of a man?
What is so fundamentally wrong with men and women in the present day?

Ok, for one, yes I have to agree it's an essay question...good point. However I wasn't talking about the sexual aspect. You think men are the only ones that crave sex more than their partners? My thoughts were more along the lines of men refusing to be honest even when there's no damage to be done, being so used to women that only want material things that they give that instead of themselves, and generally the distance that so many men keep. It's as if they want the guise of something without actually having substance to fill the void they create. And yes I do realize many women don't treat men right. Personally I think most of the world has forgotten how to treat their lovers. People want to make it only one instead of working to encompass all aspects of each others lives and doing it in a way to satisfy one another, not smother.

You know, I have noticed the same thing. I hear women complain constantly about men, yet when I see how they treat them, and when I see what they are looking for in a man, I think it's no wonder they aren't happy. The same holds true for men. I have seen many men who place a high priority on the superficial traits of a woman and then wonder why they are being treated poorly by these women.
If women would treat a man as a man instead of degrading him, making jokes at his expense, insisting he put the toilet seat down all the time (do we honestly stop to consider that MAYBE he doesn't want to touch where our rear-ends have been to lift the seat up?), kicking HIM out when there is an argument, and making him feel that no matter how he answers our questions he is going to be in trouble, then men would be a lot happier with us.
If men would stop to consider that we women just want to be treated as if we matter to you and that our needs, feelings and desires are just as important to you as your own needs, feelings and desires are important to us, then we would be treating you like the "king of your castle" that many men want to be treated like.
It's a 2-way street. If there is mutual respect and an attempt on both sexes to understand the other one without trying to force the other one to deny who they are in order to please the other, then we would all get along much better and would have higher quality relationships.
I think your last question about what is so fundamentally wrong with men and women today is a good one. What's wrong is that we live in a self-centered society. It's all about what can I get out of this? What's in it for ME? And it's about, as soon as I stop being happy, then I'M out of here. When we start to consider things from the other person's point of view more, then we get along better and everyone is happier and has less to complain about.
Some women are evil and do things like press false sexual harrassment against males at work in hopes of monetary gain. Guys talk between themselves at work sexually and don't make a big deal of it, cause it's not. Women don't understand. Women tend to be whiny and bitchy in my experiences in life, and their high pitched voices sometimes get on my nerves
This is where the perception of men being pigs comes into play. We're always thinking about sex. This applies to many males, but not all. Even when a man is married, no matter what he says, there is a big chance he's fooling around on the side. It's just sex. Sex is not love. Sex is physical fun, like hiking or riding a bike.
The problems you exemplify in your question essay could be why you sometimes see straight men living in platonic relationships with gay guys, because it's like having the love of a woman, without the sexual element to get in the way, however I don't think bitchy women turn men gay. That's impossible. Sexual orientation happens at birth as far as I'm concerned
If a woman expects a diamond ring and expensive wedding when she gets married, she's just a golddigger and doesn't know the true meaning of love. Materialism is not love, it's entertainment.
Some guys like to be p---sy whipped? I don't know. This is nothing more than a different type of enslavement. Enslavement is a trap people fall into. It's not something they do voluntarily.
Remember that tv show..."Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire"? All this mess and hypocrisy between heterosexuals, yet in the U.S.A. homosexual couples can't get married legally, even if the proposal is between to platonic individuals. It's so laughable. It's beyond ridiculous!
What is sin? Sin is a trespass, violation, or a transgression. Simply put, sin is transgression/violation of God's law. Romans 3:23 says, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" We understand by this, that everyone has violated God's law. When a criminal violates the law, is he not held accountable for his actions? If someone commits a murder, do people not wish to see justice served? God flooded the earth, because, as Genesis 6:5 says, "And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually." As a judge would sentence a murderer to prison/death sentence, likewise, God flooded a wicked, vile, and unrepentant planet -- justice served! Do not be deceived, Satan is certainly a snake, a liar at best. God forewarned of the consequences of eating of the tree of knoweldge. Genesis 2:16-17, "And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die." Despite being warned, did they obey? Hell is certainly not a pleasant place. You think hell is ruled by Satan? My friend, hell is not Satan's palace, or castle. No, contrary to popular belief, hell is Satan's eternal prison cell. Hell is described as being a place of torment (Luke 16:23), an unquenchable fire (Mark 9:44), a place of no rest (Revelation 14:11), where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth (Matthew 25:30) -- a torture chamber! However, there is good news! John 1:1-4 says, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men." But John 1:14 also says, "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth." You might ask what this all means. So what does this mean? It means God manifested in the flesh, He became a man... the man, Jesus Christ. Jesus gave His life, stepping in the place of mankind for their transgressions, and dying a death deserved for the ungodly -- sinners. As Romans 6:23 puts it, "the wages of sin is death..." and again in James 1:15, "Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death." This is why God manifested in the flesh as the man, Jesus Christ. The Old Testament records of Jewish making sacrifices to God using an unblemished lamb for atonement of sins. However, understand this... understand that Jesus is the unblemished (sinless) Lamb of God, whom was the final sacrifice for the atonement of the sins of mankind. This is why He is my Saviour, after all, He has saved me from the depths of hell.
