Um yeah that comment about how people like to be demeaned made no sense. I think you meant a different word.
Was this the quote you were refering to?
Quote:
I have also seen the women who end up demeaned have walked into it without the training or maybe even the desire to be equal.
If so....I said the desire to be equal....not the desire to be demeaned.....there are a lot of women who are brought up who don't want to be equal....they want men to do the things for them that end up putting them into a demeaning situation....it's not that they want to be demeaned....but certain guys see that lack of equality & react in a demeaning way.

I even did that with my own mother when I was growing up......I saw other kids with mothers who worked & were able to volunteer & were active in the community. Even the other mothers who didn't work at least volunteered & did other things...where my mother didn't drive, she stayed home but all she did was take care of a little 1000 sq ft home & cook for my father. She wasn't able to help me much with school work because even though she had graduated from High School, she never took the level of classes that I was in.....honestly I could NEVER relate to my own mother.....& it was very difficult not to feel a demeaning attitude toward her.....I looked at her as JUST A HOUSEWIFE.....something I swore I would NEVER BE.
