I think what makes us women starts in our heart. A woman could be the Sexiest thing alive and not very warm or giving. They way we give to the ones we love, have a sweetness in our voice and twinkle in our eye. I guess the feminine gestures and attributes. Of course having beautiful hips, breasts, faces and hair make us lovely to look at and touch. I love being a woman it never gets old or frustrating. Most importantly I hope women don't lose their sweet and tender hearts as they get older and experience heartache or loss. That's what men need from us

Before I met my husband, my low self esteem led me to choose men that were awful. All of the mistreatment and lies resulted in me becoming very hard and cynical. After a while, I hated men and I wanted to get even with all of them for using me.

I will always be grateful to my husband for patiently treating me very well, until I let my guard down and learned to trust. Now I feel safe enough to be soft and sweet again.

I LOVE this, it takes a very very special person to love us & help carry us to a new place, a different place from whatever our past has done to us. Some people manage to do this on thier own.... but I am always in awe of the stories where one is broken & another came in & loved enough, seen that whole person, more than we could see ourselves , giving us a fresh chance to trust again and find ourselves.

I think when you have someone beside you to share it all with, it makes the burden extra light, and so much more satisfying -for sure. No wonder you want to devote every living moment to your wonderful husband.

When I hear women talk the way some have on this thread with such irritation in their words with mere innocent questions being hailed as 'It is none of your damn business" responses...or wanting to say such ...you know what I think to myself.... women are impossible!! I guess the lesson here is.... keep it directed to the "weather" or give me some duct tape on my mouth, please...because women are very very very very easily offended. How in the world are we to judge who is going to REACT like that to a mere question. This is WHY people are not friendly anymore , it is not worth the effort to be.

It is almost scary to me. I am not ignorant of human behavior, I don't go around and insult women, but I have ASKED these types of questions innocently enough, I have never had a responder dump on me like that - thank GOD !

But I have learned something here... for the rest of my life , I will now PAUSE, REALIZE no matter what response I may get from a woman, she may secretly be thinking ...I am rude, insulting & invading her privacy. Damn, I never knew I was such an ogre.

I find this disheartening, truly I do.
You have a SERIOUS chip on your shoulder. Maybe you get personally attacked on this site alot for having diarrhea of the mouth? Who knows.

By me saying I have 2 kids of the same sex..and my husband travels..I thought i PAINTED a decent enough picture as to why people asking me if im "Trying for that BOY" would INSULT me. Hmm, I have 2 beautiful daughters and would be just as happy with a 3rd girl...when the time is right. I also know MANY people who have fertility issues, and arent up to discuss it with those "NOSY" bystanders who question every aspect of anyones life. Its about manners. Grow thicker skin lady.

Not taking anyones sides here, but my wife says stuff like that all the time about the women she works with. She tells me all the time that you just don't really get it babe. You guys may get in an argument, maybe wrestle or throw some blows, then all is forgiven and forgotten. She says us women can really be mean biatches to each other and generally don't forget./

I hate working with women. I find them petty, catty and vindictive.

For example, I had a strict Muslim woman complain that I didn't look like I was wearing a bra. I responded to that complaint with the fact that this fool couldn't have been doing much work if she was staring at my chest. FWIW, I was wearing a bra.

At one place I worked, the owner of the company came to my desk and congratulated my productivity. Within five minutes, some dumbass female emailed my supervisor with sudden "issues during training."

This is why I am going back to school, so that I can obtain a career in a field with ironclad HR and unions.
