Women, we cannot love them all. But we must try.
Anybody wanna hear why we got divorced? She tried to change me and I tried to keep her from changing.
Dys, I'll take it you'd rather not have heard why.
I think he's heard it before, panzade. :wink:
The eternal struggle. Women marry men thinking they'll change, which they never do. And men marry women thinking they won't change, but they always do. It has ever been thus...

These are interesting thoughts....
Men are confused. They're conflicted. They want a woman who's their intellectual equal, but they're afraid of women like that. They want a woman they can dominate, but then they hate her for being weak. It's an ambivalence that goes back to a man's relationship with his mother. Source of his life, center of his universe, object of both his fear and his love.

There can be no spirituality, no sanctity, no truth without the female sex.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider, Northern Exposure, Revelations, 1993
The male is a domestic animal which, if treated with firmness, can be trained to do most things.
Jilly Cooper
Male and female represent the two sides of the great radical dualism. But in fact they are perpetually passing into one another. Fluid hardens to solid, solid rushes to fluid. There is no wholly masculine man, no purely feminine woman.
Margaret Fuller (1810 - 1850), Woman in the Nineteenth Century, 1845
Ok. Sex is fine. Sex is good. Sex is GREAT! Okay, okay, we need men for sex... Do we need so many?
Martin Sage and Sybil Adelman, Northern Exposure, The Bumpy Road to Love, 1991
When I think of talking, it is of course with a woman. For talking at its best being an inspiration, it wants a corresponding divine quality of receptiveness, and where will you find this but in a woman?
Oliver Wendell Holmes (1809 - 1894)
I think it's them...Men. They have no fortitude. They're always dying or skedaddling off at the first sign of trouble. So tell me this, who is left to pick up the pieces, ship the body. clean out the closets? Us! And they have the audacity to call us the weaker sex.
Robin Green and Mitchell Burgess, Northern Exposure, The Mommy's Curse, 1995
Women who seek to be equal with men lack ambition.
Timothy Leary (1920 -)
