    And who said misogyny was dead? :rolleyes:
    I can't wait for the rest of the woman hating contingent to pipe in.

    We can also ask the same question of men, can't we?

    If i'm wrong, I apologise...






    but I gotta be wrong first ;)

    Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...

    It's not just girls! Most PEOPLE can't apologize.

    That's generally a trait of people who think they are not responsible for anything that happens in their life. They're the types that thing life happens TO them and not BECAUSE of them.

    Riff keeping it real.
    That makes a lot of sense. Are you sure you should be posting here? :p

    Absolutely, and I was joking for the record. My wife has no problem with an apology and neither do I.

    I'm serious though. Are there any girls here, who can admit that they have trouble apologizing? If so, can you answer this question. I just don't get it, personally.

    Some people can never apologize - even when they're dead wrong. Other people apologize even when something is clearly not their fault. Blame, guilt, shame...all very interesting things.

    I know you were.

    And to the OP: Are you talking about one particular situation or what? I am not getting the question.

    Very astute! And I clearly fall into the second category.

    So, I apologize for making light of a serious subject. The important thing is to know that sometimes you have to apologize eventhough you may think you are right, the other person does not.

    If a man speaks in a forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

    I've been guilty of that too. If I hurt someone in some way I will apologize...and if something I've done/said is misinterpreted I will clarify and explain my intention. I won't take responsibility for someone else's feelings though. There are some people who always feel as though they've been "wronged" in some way.
