if he is as i suspect, he's been enabled by the women in his life......mother, sisters, etc. there actually are men who get away with anything because no one around them had enough self-respect to tell them to shut the hell up.

i have a brother that i don't speak to due to his insulting and demeaning behavior towards women. my sisters enable him and "feel sorry" for him, "as he is lonely".....hell, yes, he's lonely. he deserves to be lonely.......

and this guy will probably really go off on you. let it roll off your back and block his e.mail address afterwards......love ya, pat
