What's It Like Facing the World As a Man?

[Masha]

My little Fuzzy is all man.

I can assure you with no fear of contradiction that no one is qualified to speak for him except me. (My speaking for him is truly a better option than allowing him to speak for himself!)

[Intrepid37]

the HOST does not speak for our sex or mankind

Who does?

Nobody, that's who.

I think that's the point I made.

Yeah - but why?

I'm pretty sure we all know it already - that nobody speaks for every single person in the world.

Which is my point regarding your post.

My point regarding your point was that the point...

Sometimes the obvious is obscured by analysis. And sometimes we need to be reminded.

People look at you funny if you sing "I enjoy being a girl" out loud?

For me, it's when I sing "Johnny Angel" out loud. I liked that song when I was 13 and still sing it once in a blue moon. The last time I did, a buddy scoffed at me - but a woman who was there as well gave me "the smile" if you know what I mean.

I met the composer of "Johnny Angel:" Lee Pockriss. He also wrote "Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini." My dealings with him had to do with one of his musicals.

I hardly think anybody needs to be told that someone doesn't speak for everyone. Talk about a "point" being pointless by being totally unnecessary.

It's about as condescendingly cheap as it's possible to be - nobody needs to be reminded of something so utterly obvious.

I get your point, and clearly understand why a few others don't (and never will).

This reminds me of this type of discussion:

My reply: well, the issue is complex and isn't binary.

Their reply: I get that. Everyone knows that! So, what is your response, yes or no?

[Sepiatone]

YES. I have a goatee and always wear a cap, but NEVER backwards. YES, Sepiatone, we are not herd animals, but UNIQUE.
Don't be such a pickle puss.

Even after admitting you prove my point you still insist on believing otherwise.
Well, at least THAT'S what makes you unique.

So, I'll just sign off-----

You had no point, and if there were, it's hardly proven.

Maybe you should read other responses in your own thread. CONDESCENDINGLY CHEAP? That is unwarranted. We might even agree, but you're determined to be picky, petty, pedantic.
You insult and argue that I'm "obvious" while another argues how we are NOT unique.
You discourage conversation in a thread you've started.

I'd like to get back to this comment here...

So Swithin?! No mention of Mr. Pockress' co-writing credit for another late-'50s hit...'Catch a Falling Star' ?

(...what, not a big Perry Como fan or somethin'???)

[LostHorizons]

OH, and btw...

While watching that video just now, the old saying "Life sucks, and then you die" came to my mind.

(...and as far as I know, that old saying isn't "gender-specific")

I take it "Carl" here was created while the animators peered over a picture of Dennis Franz.

I like that song. It's cheerful.
