I’m probably not qualified to answer, as I’m not a proper man.
I don’t drink, don’t like football, haven’t had a fight since 1965, cry at sentimental films, and wouldn’t mind a rag-doll for a present.
And I would never address anyone as ‘girl’, tell them to grow up, or accuse them of talking gushing mush.
So a very poor example of manhood.
I have this naive notion that people are people, no matter what their genitalia.
My life-long partner (we married 50-ish years ago to get a tax rebate to buy a 2nd-hand Wolseley) is her own person. I try and support her in all she does, as she does me. She is a wonderful person, with more integrity than most people will ever have.
You, kvalidir, strike me as honest, happy, and similarly full of integrity. If ever you happen to write something with which I disagree, I’ll argue with you, person to person.
It’s simply a matter of respect.
