man's and your cat are male animals. woman's and your brother's rat are female animals.
you are talking about stereotypes, wich is something i don't want to pronounce about.
and coincidly, what is woman?
One might say that genitalia makes one a man or woman. I disagree, my cat has a penis and yet he is no man, my brothers rat has a vagina but she is of course no woman.
Is it then perchance characteristics of behavior. Can we say to be a man is to be violent? No! of course not, a schizo having her period can be violent but she is no man....one could wonder if she's even really a woman.
Can we say women are weak and cry? No! 10 yr old boys are physically weak and at times they cry. They are certainly not women, and yet they are not quite men.
It is my opinion that there are very few real men and women in the world today. I beleive we have mostly little boys and girls masquerading as men and women, desperately hoping no one sees what they really are.
I was listening to a bit of American music over the net with a freind. One song came on, the singer was Paula Cole singing "where have all the cowboys gone". This paula considers herself a feminist adn a woman yet desires an ideal straight from Brothers Grimm or some other Fairy Tale genre. My male freind who was listening said that he would pose the question to Paula "where have all the women gone?"
Indeed where have all the men and women gone? What are the characteristics of Men and Women? I postulate to you...give me a characteristic of a Man and/or Woman and tell me why that characteristic.

Perfect!
I agree with you 100%!
The world has a real lack of real men and real woman. I'm glad I managed to become the former. :)
Here's what a real man is all about: http://www.sosuave.net/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=16903
Haha, on the first paragraph Pook mentions: "One women even wrote a song about the subject, "Where have all the cowboys gone?"
Stereotypes, lovely simple concept. for simple folks.
Men use love to get sex.
Women use sex to get love.
Something my English teacher used to say.

It's not a simple concept, it's a completely philosophy. That's just ONE of the ideas.
