  • Feminism and immature little boy male adults. Whats with wanting X-Box games for a wedding present ?
    Whats demeaning about being a stay at home mother, and males, whats with the little boy attitude to commitment and being a strong leader in your family ?
    No financial sense, no responsibility, and selfishness are not good starting points for marriage.

  • The dammage is not being done only in the Economy, the foreign affairs, the borders and all the others we can go on with but more importantly the Labor socialist/communists have been polluting our children's minds in education for the last 2 or 3 generations particularly. This is at all levels of education and Gillard is just an example of a clone of this system. Check her history and she will never be different. Last point this is not just about females but also about males whose outcomes are just as devasting as those of the females, both are depleting our society, not all are affected and the real survivors have had strong parents. This is why Gillard is so focused on education at all levels.

  • perfection is a state of mind that unfortunately is locked into people's brains for a long time like someone who thinks he knows he/she is guaranteed to win the lottery jackpot in their life time.
    Don't be blinded by chance my friends because you are not seeing the real odds.
    Well all I can say to that is keep waiting.. because when you end up in a retirement village getting spoon fed and nappy changed by a young stranger you may just regret the family you could have created would have been there by your side. My parents are in their 80's and still together helping each other day by day. So stop reading magazines and trying to be like a Paris Hilton, stop watching Girls Gone Wild and Desperate House wives. Instead start focusing on doing what smart men and woman are supposed to do and create kids that can excel in life and hopefully bring some more brain cells into this country to actually make a difference.

  • Even if they do marry, many women end up alone. Whats with these women wanting to keep their independance, keeping their maiden surname, keeping their own bank account, making their career first priority ahead of family, they don`t want marriage in the first place.
