Why conservatives are suddenly terrified of revolution
"Warren is quite correct: It is the rich who have made war against the 99 percent, not the other way around. They have dumped the tax burden onto the rest of us. They have shredded our social safety net and attacked our retirements. In their insatiable greed, they refuse even to consider raising the minimum wage for people who toil all day and can’t earn enough to feed their children. And they do everything in their power to block as many people from the polls as possible who might protest these conditions, while crushing the unions and any other countervailing forces that could fight to improve them.
The goal of this vicious war is to control all of the wealth and the government not just in the U.S., but the rest of the world, too, and to make sure the people are kept in a state of fear."

My real world experiences negate everything you're saying. That doesn't mean there isn't *some* truth behind what you're saying. But, you're being presumptuous about what women do and do not want. I'm only expressing my desires and allowing women to respond accordingly. And I respect their desires. It's a very simple, comfortable, and open exchange. There is nothing for me to be ashamed of.
Now why is there such conflict between what I'm experiencing and what you're saying? I'd say there is more to this than you're willing to admit.
So, either keep telling yourself what you want to hear, or go put yourself out there with the right attitude, but I doubt you could be honest with it anyways. Personally, I don't care what you do. Hell, you might even get cheered on by the choir around here.
And, let me be very clear, your self-righteous attitude isn't going to change my real world experiences no matter how much you try to "shame" me or how many passive-aggressive snide comments you throw at me. This sort of bitterness can't be healthy for you.

Or you live in a fog of delirium where women love your flirty "I say what I want when I want and the women love it" ways.

Oh. My. Gawd, a concession! That was harder than pulling teeth. You'd think you could have just agreed with this point up front.... Instead you attacked people's sexuality and squirmed like a stuck pig.
I'd say there is more to this than you're willing to admit.
This again. Right back to your mind reading skills. You don't know your audience, quit making an ass out of yourself by assuming.
