    Umm, fellas? Just for the record - women (we're animals too!) can and do have hormones firing like a 50' Roman as well. We're not these innocent swooning creatures. And that draw can be towards other women too.

    Like men, sometimes we give in to it and other times discipline takes over - thought/fantasy vs action.

    So we're not all that different.

    Just had to clarify ;)

    however true that is its still different. do women take the rejection to the extremes that OP subject did?

    I think at its root, as natural as it is, couple the desire with inflated ego and then add rejection, doesnt that equation beget mysogyny?

    Humans have every right to decide who they spend their time with. Goes without saying.

    this has all gotten my looking within. and thank you for getting the jist of the initial post. The others too.
    That's an interesting point.... Generally, women do not commit mass shootings (skin head wives in wal-mart in Vegas excluded obviously :-S ).
    A man was at the root of this crime- leading a woman by the nose.

    I'll always assert that men are the problem with society. If we had matriarchal societies, we'd be much better off.

    Much of it perceived too.

    Very true, and whatever the cause, I hope not overlooked.

    PS to Thirty...you know that old saying about money being the root of evil, when it's actually the love of money being the root?

    I take your thoughts (well thought out, as usual) in the same vein...to my view, it's not men themselves, it's how some of them are raised - or lacking in how they're brought up.

    Plus, sometimes wiring is just fucked up...and maybe fueled by those other factors?

    Balance between the two.
