    Sounds to me like someone is upset that other women aren’t as diligent as she is. Maybe the problem is with the other women. Or is that concept too manly in nature?

    The person that drives the sanitation truck for our neighborhood is a woman and she doesn’t even look like Larry, the Cable Guy. Our mailman is also a nice young lady. What the hell’s next, my doctor? Oh yeah, my doctor’s a female too. Imagine that.

    Here it is girl! Maybe you’re talking to the wrong group. Why don’t you address these issue with the WOMEN in your town. Maybe they can tell you why they would rather be cleaning houses or working the grocery store cash register.

    We don’t have the answer to why other people are doing what they do.

    Why am I not surprised that you would place blame on the closest male?

    [Jacki in Atlanta]
    Not going through a divorce? Hmmm…Maybe you need to ask your babe to go to the drug store to pick up that prescription you have recently stopped taking because apparently you really need it.”

    THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO PLACE ON THESE FORUMS FOR PERSONAL ATTACKS.

    You started a thread about a very touchy subject. You wanted to start a dialogue about this and you got one. You are not getting the type of sympathetic answers you want to hear.

    Statements like this one and the one above about divorce are completely and wholly uncalled for.

    I’m sorry to step into such a passionate topic, but I am. It seems to me that the potential for this discussion to enlighten anyone has passed, at least for now. Some (and I emphasize SOME) of the posts have veered far off a potentially informative topic, and (SOME) are getting more personal than is appropriate, no matter how heated the discussion.

    Perhaps it’s my background as a pre-school teacher, but I think in situations like this, a time out is called for. So, after I was requested to do via email, I’m locking the thread for now.

    Because I was asked to close the thread in email, I’m open to suggestions about opening it back up, moving it to another forum, or deleting it altogether (which I’ve also been requested to do).

    One of the places to consider moving it is the COWBlogs, whose purpose includes off-topic and political perspectives….although even there, personal attacks are unacceptable, and will be either removed or edited at the discretion of either the blogger or the COW’s management (which at the blogs will more often than not be me).

    Because of the hour here on the east coast, I haven’t consulted with Kathlyn or Ron on this….and may hear from them that I should let it go, which has happened before. 🙂

    Again, if anyone else has any opinion regarding the administrative action I’ve taken here, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with me.

    Best,
    Tim

    The moral of the story is that nobody here is afraid to answer anything.
