  Are you kidding me?

  You said: "my point is that "the way women think about relationships" and "men(occasionally women) who just want sex" aren't the only two possibilities"

  From the accumulation of everything you've said, your points seems exactly to be that men think one thing and women think another and those ARE the only two possibilites. And, not just that, but women should respect the mythical "male pov" and do things "men's" way, and if we don't we're using sex against you to beat you into submission.

  I don't know you, obviously, but your posts here have conveyed (maybe inadvertently) a bitterness toward women that is starting to make me sad for you. I apologize if that seems condescending, because I don't mean it that way. Honestly, really, I promise, if you approach women with good-hearted intentions and treat them well (by which I mean, as well as you would another guy you hope to become friends with), they will respond in kind. If you are surrounded by a mutant strain of evil, withholding, manipulative women, please know that women do exist elsewhere who are not like that. I'm sorry if it's mean, but I kind of think the problem might lie with you-- no one wants to be treated like a piece of meat, and from what you say, I think that's how you view us. We're more like you than you think.
