Who said we didn't like you gals? We're just pointing
out reasons why we wouldn't want to be MARRIED to you.

gyp, oh Warrior Princess, we would be first to admit that we, the men of your tribe, admire you two strong and courageous women. This admiration comes from the respect of your collective battle skills and sharp wit. However, as you say, the male of the species must continue with our conquering quest. We can't help it, it's a biological thing. Unfortunately, you are correct about the protective instincts, you proved that to our shame, but we will endevor to avoid this pitfall in future (well, we'll give it a try anyway ;-)). Yes, Denice will be proud.

They all melted and immediately became gentle and protective. They rushed to comfort me. I stayed away, they missed me and begged for my return. They can't help their predisposed genetic programming to protect the little woman ...

So, does that mean you think that men HAVEN'T "tried to enslave women since the beginning of time?"

BTW, gyp, that was a great post. I'm still chuckling over it. You got us good, and fair and square.
