That is true. But I get the feeling from the posts in this thread (and in other forums I've seen), and I could be wrong, that these men are looking for women who are pretty submissive all around and not merely "domestically oriented".
Well... It is Germanic in origin. :lamo
LOL I dont date people that would fall for it...I wouldnt respect them.
The thread/question is about women disrespecting men. So just because turning that around HONESTLY only allows for unpleasant answers isnt my fault.
German is definitely "authoritative" sounding language. :lol: It's like, "why are you yelling at me?"
Was he running a model agency by any chance? Maybe he just liked the way you looked?

The reasl problem is people who think they deserve respect instead of working to earn it.
No, the question made it that honestly was not going to get your acceptance either way. The answer is no btw, but of course, there no chance you were going to accept that answer, and if I did answer that way I would have been called a liar, as you have already decided that the answer is yes. If however, I answered yes, then the only response to be expected was to being called a pig. In real life, that kind of question leads to a fight no matter what as the woman has already decided a fight is what she wants. There is no possible way to answer the question or disarm the situation. Of course, if you fight the situation is going to be worse, but if you don't fight, then again the situation is going to get worse. It's basically dog house no matter what. I hate that crap.
I find it interesting that you took the question so personally.
And it seems hypocritical not to own up to an answer. An answer in a thread about how women seem more disrespectful of men today, a sentiment that you seemed to agree with.
Yet you take exception to the fact that there's no 'good answer' to my (actually rhetorical) question about a single, albeit endemic, example of men's disrespect for women...."have you ever lied to get sex."
Again, the fact that you dont think there's an answer that shows you (or men?) in a positive light is EXACTLY what this thread is about.
Does that apply in reverse too? Do wives have to earn the love of their husband on a constant basis or do they expect their husband to love them through the rainy days as well as the sunny days?
Once I lose the love, or diminish the love, I have for my wife I'm pretty sure that she's going to feel that something in our marriage is off kilter and if I told her that she has to earn my love on a continuing basis that would quite likely undercut the very foundation of our marriage.
Similarly, if I see that my wife doesn't respect me, or that her respect for me is diminishing, and that I have to earn her respect, then for me something in our marriage has died.
That certainly extends past what I said, but I will bite anyway. Both love and respect have to be earned, by both genders. What makes it somewhat easier is that there is some inertia in those things. Once that love and respect is developed, it will tend to resist changes to that state unless the person does something actively to change it. Usually, though I do suppose neglect would do it too. Both are necessary for both partners in any romantic relationship.
I think neglect would definitely tend to make a relationship deteriorate.
Yeah. It oddly qualifies as active though, since the normal state in a marriage is something other than neglect. I singled it out however due to it being odd in conjunction with saying "active".
Hmmm. Not sure I understand this post.
The disrespect and cuckoldry of women has been a badge of honor for men for millenia....I'd agree it's wrong...but maybe it's learning by example?
Yes you do, it's pretty self-explanatory.
Two wrongs don't make a right nor do they amount to "equality." Women benefited greatly from the patriarch.

If given the chance to re-marry would you marry (another) American woman?
Increasingly the answer is "no".
Men are increasingly disrespected by American women. They face extreme economic and social disadvantages in family law that makes it possible for a wife to divorce them and take most of what they have including their children for any reason or no reason. They are constantly told that they are worthless and stupid. Disrespect for men has become standard practice. Men are disrespected by their wives – they’re disrespected publicly, they’re disrespected privately, they’re disrespected and then told that they have no right to be upset about it because they aren’t worthy of respect in the first place.
Disrespect of men is a joke to Americans now.
The result has been that men are increasingly dropping out of society. They don't marry, they don't go to college because they see no reason to break their humps to get ready to provide for a family -- they aren't going to be having a family.
Lots has been written about this phenomena, most of it in the strain of "why is it that men are so childish now." But men are not dropping out because of arrested development. They are acting rationally in response to myriad laws, attitudes and hostility against them for the crime of happening to be male in the twenty-first century.

That's only when people rush to the altar and don't take the time to get to know their prospective mate. If you haven't known them for at least 5 years, you're doing it too fast.
-- Oh, and divorce is not an option neither. Thought I mention this little detail here also.
If I catch her whoring around, stealing goods from the house, or disrespecting me and my friends and relatives (while respecting hers) then by the Albanian code I have the right to shoot her with the bullet her own father gave to me. So, it is till death does us apart alright.
Many years of experience with women, tells me, that women nationality does not matter.
