He hated that other men had them and he didn't. He was jealous. He was emotionally stunted and developmentally challenged, with a persistent tic, who had special ed teachers in school. Who told him he has a right to "have" any woman? He doesn't see women as autonomous and deserving freedom to make their own decisions...and if he's not part of it...thems the breaks!

This is exacerbated by our society and culture where many women try to 'let them down easy' by making excuses or giving hints, many of them non-verbal in order to spare both sides embarrassment. How often does a guy ask a woman to dance or go out and have her say something like "Sorry, but you don't meet my minimum standards." Such a woman would indeed be called a bitch, even though she's just being honest. Hey, men don't even approach women they don't think are physically attractive to begin with! It's silly to think such measurements only go one way. But women aren't allowed to say that (culturally) so they tend to give cues that most men understand - but not all, and not always. Domineering? Hmm. That's a judgement thing on the part of both sides. Because one of the things women look for in a man is confidence. So there's a line where you demonstrate confidence (a 'bumbling' advance is the opposite of confident) but not arrogance, strength but not too much. To expect every guy to know where that line is, especially when drinking, especially given every woman draws the line in a different places, is unrealistic. And again, when you're dealing with men who don't have very good social skills, well... I'm talking about men who become explosive, hateful and downright scary when they're rejected. They are everywhere. But you wouldn't know that. These are the kind of guys that get bullied, ridiculed and dismissed as weird and pathetic by other guys. You don't realize how dangerous they are to women because you don't experience it ... and you dismiss women's complaints about them. Edited June 23, 2018 by jacee 1 Quote

I've never claimed Muslim terrorists are more than a tiny number. My problem with Muslims is their devotion to a medieval social code and value system which is antithetical to our own. And while only a small number become terrorists it is the brutality and ugliness and hate for non-believers which fills their religion which causes them to do so. And many who believe in Islam share those beliefs, even if they're not about to go blow people up.

Those might indeed be driven by the factors you list above. All those religions believe men dominate women and women are there for men's convenience and pleasure. This is also the Christian belief, and Western culture is "Christian". In Canada, its only been 30 years that men could be charged with raping their wives. My mother told me that she had to get her husband's permission to use birth control in the 50s. Both of these things reflect our society's deep rooted belief that women are subject to men. Sure, we are getting past all that BS, but If you think we've left all that behind in less than a generation, you are remarkably naive. Especially given that most Canadians still call themselves Christian and a significant number of them also support the Biblical teaching that women submit to men. That attitude is alive and well in Canada, even if its not as blatant as it used to be. Edited June 25, 2018 by dialamah Quote

Because of our Christian heritage, culturally we are behind where we are *legally*. Christianity still directly controls a significant portion of the population, and indirectly affects considerably more people. 1983 is hardly ancient history and before that, a man could rape his wife at will. In certain Christian groups, he still can. In certain secular subgroups, women are expected to submit to their husbands - which again means that a man can rape his wife. Just check out some of the alt-right groups if you don't believe me. Yes, certain immigrant groups are even more entrenched in that kind of female-submission mindset, no doubt.
