		<description>&quot;Taking enough women out of the workforce would open up plenty of opportunities for men to support their families.&quot; 

It would also violate my religious beliefs as I cannot undress in front of any male other than my husband, therefore I only go to female gynecologists.</description>

		<description>Hey,

came here from Steve-o&#039;s site.

Congratz on Kevin Forrest!

Watched the first game - amazing replays on FSC, amazing atmosphere.

I really wish football the best in this country.

Funny thing - I wasn&#039;t into watching sports in college and in high school, as I perceived them as not for me.

I found baseball incredibly boring, basketball for tall freaks of nature and american football for fat kids.

And then I watched a football match on FSC (back when the network was young), a Sheffield Wednesday vs. someone-or-other, and... I was hooked.

Winning over the Mexican national team in the WC clinched it for me.

And of course, yes, I am an immigrant.

Cheers!</description>

		<description>Hey Sui, tell all your gal pals to quit their jobs, get off the pill and start raising babies and making house full time -- without pay. Taking enough women out of the workforce would open up plenty of opportunities for men to support their families. But somehow, I&#039;m not sure your typical female would go for that idea. 

Either way, try writing a comment relevant to the post, unless that&#039;s too much to ask.</description>

		<description>Sui, you don&#039;t think that&#039;s still what&#039;s expected of men?</description>

		<description>So strange to read a blog where men complain about how they&#039;re treated by women, since, of course, the reverse has become standard. 

I feel like I&#039;m totally oblivious to the modern plight of men. Would men really prefer to days when they were expected to make enough money for a family? And for it to be the woman&#039;s job to take care of her husband and kids? I would think men would have sighed in relief to have that great burden off their backs. 

Very curious.</description>

		<description>Yes, that certainly was true for us.  Our only child between us, the most beautiful boy in the world, is down on the lower end of the spectrum.  He was born when we I was 47 and she was 40.  

While there is clearly nothing we can do about it, let me also question why there are so many of such older parents in the first place?  In my case it wasn&#039;t my choice to wait this long, but I had to put up with years of feminist horseshit and self-centeredness in the form of &quot;I don&#039;t need a man&quot;.  

Until society starts putting a LOT more pressure on young women to mate and breed when nature intended it, expect this problem to get a lot worse.</description>

		<description>Saw your following comment on the Roissy blog - &quot;The continued effeminacy of American men will eventually be the ruin of American women, as there will eventually be nobody left to fight for them.&quot;

Speaking of fertility treatments, apparently that mother of octuplets already had six children: http://blogs.usatoday.com/ondeadline/2009/02/octuplets-doing.html

“Suleman, 33, now has 14 below the age of eight.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;

And one of her children from the first batch is autistic. Kind of a reverse application of the typical woman&#039;s &quot;right to choose&quot; argument, which raises questions of a different nature. 

We have been stuffing American women so full of hormones for over a generation that there are bound to be consequences for at least a half century. 

Alphadominance:

It isn&#039;t the mercury (although I, too, have my reservations about injecting it into children); it is the blas&#233; attitude toward hormonal manipulation, which approaches East German Cold War practices. 

In fact, the environmental effect of the surge in estrogen has had profound implications for not only aquatic animals, but possibly humans as well.</description>
