Thread Name: BS: Why do females live longer than males?
Subject: RE: BS: Why do females live longer than males?
This woman bashing attitude is really getting me down. I am 51, my life expectancy since early 30s is about 58 to 62 due to a myriad of health problems and some genetic factors. I am not going to live longer than my darling husband who is 8 years my senior. And yet I am so glad of it because I would just fall apart without him.
If you are nagged to death then it is up to you to do something about it. Make it stop by some (legal and considerate) means or get out. Not fair for you to harbour such ill will against all women because of a few.
I don't hold my ex husband's errors against all men. And I was in hell for over 20 years thinking it was all my fault (he was the one who constantly nagged me). Might be part of the reason my health is failing. The stress of that first marriage was immense. But I take responsibility for my part. I should have picked my battles more judiciously and I should have had the sense to leave when it became so obviously untenable.
So please don't be so mysogynistic. It doesn't look good on you fellas. That kind of latent anger can't be good for your health either.
