I can't say I enjoy most men's company.

To feel manly, you should dress well, smell well, have a beautiful woman by your side and exercise, a lot

For me, reacting differently to men and women is enough.

Have always felt more comfortable around and enjoy conversing with women than men. Always responded better to women teachers and doctors. I also empathize with women for the historically unfair and abusive treatment they suffer at the hands of men. I look forward to the day when the United States has a female President.

Who though?, Madonna, Obama or Clinton? There's too fewer female protagonists as far as choices are concerned, these days.

Why am I getting dragged to the men's list to read a woman's opinion?

Try dragging yourself away from The Daily Mail or the likes of The Daily Mirror or The Sun and you'll see why.

Depends on the way you view your opinion polls, and stand by it and I for one, am not biased by it.

^^i wish you all the best in your conversations with the fairer sex. in general [outside of family/kinfolk], women tend to avoid me. no common frame of reference there.

Well, yes, I do agree with that but I don't approach or talk to anyone in the real world, just online.

I tend towards women more than men when talking online, I really just mean converserving, I have a few ideas why, but too many fembots on this thread to share anything.

As a male, it's really hard sometimes to keep myself calm. That's the biggest problem

Men are held to a much higher standard for remaining calm, because they are presumed dangerous. Boys also get less training in managing emotions - they are expected to just remain stunted. Once aroused, aspies have a strong tendency to re-live stressful situations, trying to understand them, or just with a persistent amygdala system always kicking in along with the memory. I avoid stress when I can, and find that meditation does a great job at cleaning up the residue, although I have to use the process without understanding it. Getting plenty of sleep is very important, too.

Lately, I've been getting dunned with an ad that starts off with the dialogue "Women will be silent no more!" Just curious, wondering if anybody can remember when women were silent?

I go to the mountains: chop wood, have a fire, wash in freezing water, identify plants and trees

I certainly consider myself one. If I thought people were interested here, I'd describe masculinity, as distinct from wealth, which has been the actual focus of most of the abuse.

how much more is there to masculinity other than the absence of femininity? i know in my :heart:

that masculine doesn't have to be macho [stereotypical strutting and preening]. my sis' hub is definitely masculine, all man. out-doorsman and mountain climber/marathoner. until recently rail thin and fit as a fiddle. but he likes cats. does that count against masculinity?
