[Sirius Glass]

Sirius, it is seriously time for you to let go of your bitterness to your ex. You have been bitching about her for years on a PHOTOGRAPHY forum, and crowing about your trophy girl.
I was a very bitter and angry woman for a while. One of the ways my current (14 years) sweetheart impressed me was by not dissing his ex. His example helped me let go of my anger. He won out over other contenders because he was a grown up.

I also want to thank the guys who have objected to the mysogynistic remarks this thread has flushed out. I've been biting my tongue ever since it started.

Now, in retrospect, even my ex agrees that I am better off. In fact the ex really likes my girlfriend and often tells our daughters how happy she is that I found her.

By the way, I find it fascinating that the is no word in Engish for the counter point of "mysogynistic" even though such attitudes and remarks exist.




An aside, have you ever heard of Henny "Take my wife—please." Youngman http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henny_Youngman or "Lonesome George" Goble http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Gobel who talked about "Spooky Old Alice"?


Note that this thread does have a light joking tone to it. Let's keep it that way. And no men aren't always wrong.
