That and I sort of felt like the responses that were presented here were trying to speak for ALL men, and that simply can't be done. Your perspective, as a man, is your perspective. I wouldn't try to speak for "all women everywhere", and that's what I felt like the male responses were.

I'd love to get their general perspectives on posts througout the board, but only as "their" opinion, not the "opinion of men everywhere" KWIM?

"My significant other doesn't post/read here so I'm happy to answer honestly!!?!"

You couldn't answer honestly if she posted/lurked here? That's kind of sad.... I'd never post anything on a messageboard that I wouldn't want my spouse to read. To each his own, I guess!!!
Tanya- I agree with you! Nick sometimes lurks and I don't write anything he would be mad about. He's happy that I have a place to go where people can understand the aviation lifestyle. My friends just don't get it.

Kevin- If you want to post or answer questions that's fine as long as you position it as your sole opinion. Men, just like women, are all different which their opinions, background, education, values, etc etc etc.
