I’m sad that you do not have better men in your life.[/quote]

I'm telling it like it is.

What does this have to do with better men?  It is completely reasonable for any person, male or female, to not want to take this on voluntarily. [/quote]

Yes, and it's equally reasonable for a person, male or female, to want to take this one.  The fact that you wouldn't make this choice is absolutely fine.  The fact that you can't imagine a man making a different choice than you would is sad.

I never said I can’t imagine someone not being willing to take this on.  Far from it.  What I did say is that it’s unfair to bash those who don’t want to take it on as somehow not as good as those who do.  That’s what I said.  You’re the one making judgments. [/quote]

Did you read the top post, the one you were defending?  [/quote]

I didn’t write that post.  I responded to the post below it, regarding so called better men.  And that is all that my post responded to.  [/quote]
