Well, you know a lot of screwed up doctors where you live. That’s not what I see on my part of the planet. Quite the opposite. I prefer to look at people as individuals and not judge them by their life’s work. If we are going to start generalizing about train wrecks let’s throw rock stars, sports “heroes”, politicians and most of all Hollywood movie stars elite into the mix. From Anthony Weiner to Lindsay Lohan, a couple of dead rockers and lastly, that creep from Penn State molesting children, my point is, judging people by their chosen profession is too harsh and is perhaps something we call stereotyping?

Mike, I thought I would be offering you my love and compliments for coming to the defense of accomplished women in regard to John Shelfs comments, but it’s not to be.

What’s the subject of this thread anyway?

If Judge Greg Mathis could be cloned, all women could have their ideal person of a man. Mmmmmmmmm… l

Yes and what a wonderful affect that has had on society with children dragged up by strangers and house prices priced risen to need two incomes to afford.

Anyone with a bit of intelligence would realise life was better in the 60s with clearly defined roles between the sexes.

We are doing better with every new generation, Jossie. Clearly defined roles are clearly interchangeable and of value.

Did you know that the word hysteria and hysterical come from the uterus in greek. Learnt that yesterday watching American Horror!

Women wanting to be men has resulted in men not wanting to get married, why would they? Why would someone want a partner who thinks she is a princess who should spend the mans money, yet not maintain the house, cook the food, raise the children. Modern women seem to want it both ways, and men are just not interested.

Also women leaving having babies until mid 30s where pregnancy has become very difficult if not impossible. I have several friends where this is the case.

The roles are not interchangeable generally, because men are not the same as women. You all know this. Women are nurturing, emotional, supportive, not very logical, talkative.

Men are resilient, logical, and not emotional or supportive.

Obviously there are exceptions to the rule, but that doesnt invalidate the rule

Life was better in the 60s? Maybe for men. As for women Rolling Stone’s “mother’s little helper” comes to mind.

Though compared to today the 60s might have been better for the women. Most ladies I know these days have to work full-time in addition to cleaning, cooking & raising kids. The amount of “mental health pills” taken by women remains absolutely staggering.

The bon-bon eating lazy housewife may exist but not as often as certain people like to imply. Rampant inflation and runaway debt made sure people have to work 2-3 jobs together just so that they can remain a part of mainstream society.

Indeed the children of aristocratic women (who do not work either inside or outside the home) are those that grow more disaffected, the nannys and boarding schools are responsible for their education.

Perhaps you john Sheff, see too many series like Mad Men.

Sorry Laserbutt for stealing the thread, make sure not to leave areas without treatment, your legs may end up as a chessboard.

“Just so that they can remain part of mainstream society” Why would anyone with an uncluttered mind want to be a part of mainstream society, it’s an illusion. Mainstream society is a mess! How fragile it is. Riots in England, Riots not so long ago in the US. Is it mainstream society that has invaded Iraq and Afghanistan, is anyone else aware that on the 22nd of Nov this year just a week or so ago Tony Blaire and George bush were found guilty of war crimes by a court in Kuala Lumpa. What weapons of mass destruction? they didn’t find any. 9 11 and 7 7 who were the real perpetrators? Building 7 collapse, A 757 into the pentagon, yeah right! do your research. Mainstream society…you can keep it. People have been brain washed into thinking that they need this and they need that. They’re convinced they have a right to have what other people have and they end up in a financial mess because of it. For years credit was as easy and un-considered as drawing breath. Are we being scammed? you’re damn right we are, at every turn, by the very people we elected, by the drug companies, by the manufacturers and distributors of weapons, by the banks… The sweetest thing about life these days is when I accidentally put too much sugar in my tea or killing a follicle or two… :wink:

Folli - I like you.

JohnSheff - I think it’s a far-fetched to say women becoming independent and working is the cause of our problems.

If you have time, I think you will find this BBC aired documentary informative: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Century_of_the_Self

I’d recommend downloading better quality if you can.

Yes to financial part above. May we have strong hearts and mental attitudes when the global finance system collapses.

I think it would be good idea to get back to Laserbutt’s original intention of this thread. I know we get off the topic, and it is okay to do that, but we go nowhere that is fruitful with this off topic stuff.

Laserbutt - If you had shedding at week 1 - 3 and all the hair shed, and then your skin was smooth for a few weeks, then this is the next cycle of hair coming through.

It starts off slow, with some sparse, finer hairs coming through. Then you will see it speed it and over a few weeks and lots of growth will come through. Then it will taper off again. My advice to people is to not shave (just trim if they have to) and monitor this. When it looks like things have slowed down and not much hair is emerging - that’s the time for the next treatment. You want to treat the maximum number of hairs. If you treat too early, you will miss a lot of the cycle and will need more treatments overall.

This is usually somewhere between 12-16 weeks for the legs.

If you are going back at 8 weeks, I’d say it’s too early.

What kind of an attitude is this JohnSheff?? :o
Would you feel the same way if it was the other way around?

#32

Its nothing to do with attitude, merely stating the obvious facts. If you think my conclusion is wrong then feel free to explain why you think house prices rose when women started to work.

Or, why large number of children are social misfits? How many children were pregnant at your school? There was one in my entire year and it was a scandal.

If I was a woman id enjoy raising my children properly while my husband provided for us. Id do this rather than working a crap brainless job in a office and letting some stranger bring my children up.

Well, you can have viable social commentary without being “politically correct.” I don’t mind strident views (even incorrect ones); I learn from them. History, of course, is still my passion.

Indeed, the 20th Century probably saw more social change than the previous 500 years. But the role of women in America really started to change during World War II. Prior to that time women had a “fixed oppressive role.”

No social change comes without negative results. These results are not predictable and can only be evaluated in hindsight. However, the process of “freedom and equality” cannot be stopped. That “Shot Heard ‘Round the World” (American Revolution) is still reverberating. It’s still my passion. You cannot read the philosophy of the Enlightenment without getting excited. Always controversy, but freedom for ALL people should be our goal. Right now “gay marriage” is on the burner … I love the challenge to my own thoughts, and controversy.

Can we attribute “messed up kids” to women not being at home? Yeah, probably … I could make a case for it. But Western society can only move forward. You are NEVER getting women “back in the kitchen.” So, just “forget about it!” And, I’m totally happy about “the new woman.” I still want Hillary for US president! Now, THAT woman “has some balls!”

I would say, specifically, I see no relationship to changes in women’s role and housing prices. I would mostly look to the very predictable “economic bubble” dynamics that caused this mess (greedy men?). (My own house has lost $300,000 in value since the bubble! That hurts.)
