I think these are sexist generalizations, there are men clueless about business and engineering and women clueless about babies and housekeeping.

Point is, if a man wanted to breastfeed a baby, he could without becoming a women. Could be gender fluid or something else. Not necessarily a woman, but still a guy.

Man! Do you know what you are saying about this? The whole animal kingdom would be turned upside down if male animals were breastfeeding.

Well, this is interesting. I never followed any of these rules. Of course, I was never aware of them. But, then, I was never after guys either. Lesbians don’t play by these rules.

I know I’m asking for generalizations, but what rules would you say that lesbians play by, if any?

If that were true, there would be almost no child abuse in the world.

Mothers abusing their own child is kind of a rare incident. To me, that’s just an inconceivable idea.

It’s not whether the idea is conceivable to you or not. It’s whether or not it happens – and it does happen a lot.

The rare occasions when my mom hit me when I was small it made a huge impact. I think it instilled a fear and respect for women in me while I sat there sobbing…
Growing up my mother was always the dominant figure in our household and the primary breadwinner. She came home from work tired and short tempered, we were always terrified of her anger. Though as the years have passed the dynamics have changed though she is still the primary breadwinner.
My father was a stay at home dad.

My mom is both family/nurturing and business minded. She doesn’t work in business necessarily though, she is a family physician who gives a lot to charity.

I didn’t know that about your family. If your mom did hit you on the rare occasion then it was probably to discipline you for being naughty.
There are many types of households in which either parent could be the breadwinner or the dominant figure or both. If your mom is a family physician earning her Medical Doctorate then it would be an obvious decision for her to be a sole proprietor and offer her professional advice.

Child abuse falls into child care and how either parent approaches raising their kid. Both parents have to decide or agree on what’s best.

I’ve always seen attraction differently and while I identify as gay I’m not a practicing homosexual. In all honesty I would rather foster various platonic relationships via common social outlets like church or other community events.
But @valiumprincess already wrote of it well.

My father rarely ever got physical with me growing up. He’s not a very aggressive guy at all…

Of course women wouldn’t stand for a man who doesn’t even try to get a 40 hours per week job. If you are a business man, you’ll be far more attractive for a woman. But realize it’s not a matter of money. It’s a matter of taking risks. If you love taking risks and are resilient, women will find you attractive. It will reflect on the way you approach women. You can’t approach women if you don’t risk being rejected for example. The same way happens if you want to take a job. You need to face rejection. It’s all a matter of ravishing the world.

For me, it’s the other way around. My dad did the spanking and was the aggressor whereas my mom was passive.

I don’t have a desire for romantic relationships at all anymore.
It requires more time and commitmend than friendships, so I’d rather work on having some close friends.
My friends fulfill my need for socialization, and I don’t feel like I have the time for a partner.
But then again, I’m the kind of person who needs some alone-time in order to not get stressed.

You a lot of "have to"s and "should"s in your thinking. Just because you think something should be or have to be a certain way doesn’t make it true.
