Hey Buz.
According to Wiki, Ole man Buz's position on the role of women is compatible with billions of folks in nearly every human culture since history was recorded. It wasn't until around the beginning of the 20th century AD that the first nation worldwide instituted women sufferage.
Western society moves on, regardless of whether your personal views have not. If you want to condone the subjugation of minorities and women by asserting in this thread (and others) that
since it was the norm in the past that it
should be the norm now, it's a free country. Apparently we differ in opinion here (surprise!): I'd like to believe we've come a long way since the times you hold so dear, and I'm sure you'd find a dozen ways in which our current society has degraded since the bronze age. To each his own, it seems ...
But I do find it amusing (and a bit contrived, as well) how you assume such a wounded stance after submitting such an inflammatory post. How long have you been posting here? Seven years, says your profile. Should you not expect to be called on the carpet for such statements? Methinks the gentleBuz doth protest too much ... or do you just do it for the lulz?
Seriously Buz, I understand that you're old, and that if you had your druthers, you'd most likely be living blissfully in NT times (or at least a few hundred years ago) versus in the enlightened, scientific, technologically advanced culture in which god unfortunately (for you) decided to create you. Welcome to reality. However, I would posit that you'd find that the "good 'ol days" may not be as "good" as your fantasies would lead you to believe, eh?
Have a good one.
