I saw the address for soc.men on a cross posted subject and then I
subscribed to this group to see what it was.
Pardon my curiosity.
Could it be defined at all?, I asked myself after reading a few threads.
What does soc.men really mean?
Does it mean Society men? or sock it to the men, hit em with a feminyst
punch?
Or does it mean Social men, who don't need hitting by anyone,
surely not by feminists.
Does soc stand for "silly old c---" ( could be male or female.....)
Well ok, "silly old cowboy" then...
In other groups I partake, the name of the group implies the reason
for its existance, and anything discussed relates to that, and there is
no
need for a definition of purpose, because the name is the flag for the
ship.
Perhaps that is a very masculine thing, this definition of purpose,
but wheras there is an undefined purpose for being, and in fact if the
purpose for being is to exist undefined,
then it seems feminine.
From what I do see however, there is more expressed intelligence here
than the
one liner banalities I see so evident in groups elsewhere on the web in
the public discussion groups.
When I visit such groups I feel despondent about humanity, ( and
huwomanity )
although most such groups seem male dominated and by males capable of
very
limited comunication ability.
At least it appears some women hang out here.
But perhaps they to are men who have all addopted women's names, who
knows.
Somebody said here that the more intelligent a woman is, the less likely
it is that she'll marry.
Well of course, it means she is bright enough to survive on her own.
It also means that men don't like women smart enough to argue with them.
And thus intelligent women make men turn their gaze to the portugese
maid.
There is tremendous fear amoungst men out there of being seriously
ripped apart
when loves finally evolves into hate during a divorce settlement,
since intelligent women and smart lawyers have more potency than a
tsumi.
Probably many folks here come stained by life's accumulated experiences
to the present time,
but I think I am lucky to not have had to consider whether the portugese
maid
was more of a love option than my "wife".
I don't have a wife, or a maid. I tried the former once, but she mistook
standing up to me for leaving me, a common mistake young folks make.
The latter is far too expensive, although here in Oz the maid is more
likely
to be a Filipino, and they'd think I am too old and poor to marry, but
if I was rich
they'd never notice my age.
Is there a entry form I have to fill out to enter this group?
Do I have to have had quite a few maids, gained several degrees and a
uni,
been married to one or more versions of Ms Illustrious & Marrylogically
Correct, and earned
lots of money to afford the leisure time to consider the issues and pay
lawyers fees?
Do I have to appear before a committee, or a damned tribunal to be
assessed for
a fit and proper person to yac on here about all this stuff?
