Smile,
Thanks. I kept looking at this thread and feeling uncomfortable. Yes, there are some men (and women) out there with huge problems. But there are many men out there who are good people.

I have gone through a "hate men" stage in my life, so I know the feeling. Fortunately, I got past it. I also got less desperate to have one and found more time to have myself.

Just my two cents -- take what you like and leave the rest.
