Don't forget multiple orgasms!

LaT, you just named the one thing that I think all women would agree on.

Well, to be fair, no one started a thread on multiple orgasms. I doubt anyone would have had any heated arguments on that topic, but you never know.

Let's hope we can all sustain this effort: let's see if it works in the "Democrats Tearing Apart" thread

Alright already, you win. I admit it; I’m guilty. It was me the whole time. And no, I wasn’t born this way, I trained hard for it.

Now, could you please stop pointing at me?!?

fast reply

i read the entire thread (for once...) and my personal impression is that one person's confidence is another person's bitchiness. so it doesn't really matter anyway because someone will like you at some point and someone will hate you. i'm used to being called a bitch. i embrace it in that it's easier than fighting it (yes i'm lazy in that regard). i've also been called cocky, full of sh*t, and numerous other things. i think it's all in where you stand.

Are you kidding? You know women would argue about who's orgasm is more real and then they'd try to outdo each other by how many multiples they can have. It's a disastrous idea. ::rubs hands together::

Oh for sure, all of us women will have been called a bitch at one point or another in our lives. When a man calls me that, I can feel nearly vindicated, but if a woman did, I'd probably feel awful, because that's the last thing I want to be to another woman.

It's all part of life's rich tapestry, and all that kind of thing :-) .

Your thread got me thinking - I must avoid having female friends without realising it. In my close 'circle' of friends - only two are female and I have known her since school, the other is my daughter.
My Master is male. My best friends male, my doctor is male and even my ex-husband was male.

I was bullied (never very seriously) at school. I saw how nasty and bitchy girls could be to one another first hand, and I think their motive was jealousy (I was smarter, cleverer and prettier than them

) - well, it's nearly always the case. The subject of woman to woman shittiness has subsided as I've aged (well, I'm bordering on cripple now) but I'm still witness to it. It's as if it was to be expected behaviour!!! So I completely understand if a woman is weary of others.

How do you think mothers could encourage female solidarity and companionship and obliterate petty belligerence, suspicion and envy? I have a son, so he isn't directly involved, but if I had a daughter I know I would be particularly weary of the system she would be sent into. What do you think?

Another word or behavior for this is: ruminate. Women are more prone to depression because they don't let things go, whereas men are more apt to do the opposite: not think about it, play golf, drink, or purge.

Ruminating on negatives is a very poor behavior trait --- in that it tends to magnify the stink, offense, and vileness of shit.

Oftentimes one is just better to flush the friggin toilet.

Some women are bitches, some women are super sensitive. Maybe they are both born that way.

While I think that is true for a small percentage, the reality is that most of us can be either at different times and accepting that you have bad days and not responding to them by lashing out at others is the ultimate goal. I can't say I've perfected it, I can say it does get easier when you work at counting to 10 before responding.

There have been several times on these boards when people have intimated I was being a bitch (some over and over and their opinions I discard as being overly sensitive as they seem to do it with everyone). There have been only a couple of times when I had any intention of being bitchy. Let's face it when all we have is written words, it's really a poor indication of itent or emotion. Before we label someone by a sexist, stereotypical label ladies, I think we should really stop to ponder whether it's really helpful to women overall and whether they as a human being, not just a woman are doing the best they can with what they have at that moment and whether it is truly intentional.

I can tell you many times at work (which is by nature always having conflict) where myself and someone else stood aside and said, hey why are we in a tiff here? and found out our perceptions of each other were horribly wrong and the reactions based on those were unnecessary. Check it out first seems to be something I learned later in life that saves me some friendships and makes me some new ones.

You know, you are right and your words are being played out before our very eyes. So many have tried to make this thread end on a positive and cute note and others keep adding their negative personal issues to it. Some people just cannot let things go and they seem to thrive on instigation. Sad, isn't it? But it speaks volumes on those individuals.
