Wk#6 - Eureka!!

Why is it so hard for the sexes to communicate? You extend yourself to keep someone in the loop and your looked upon as wanting to get to know that person or sucking up. How do you approach a person without it being mistaken for an evening out, but more as a way of open dialogue between two (2) people that may incorporate others to participate (like a book club). We can start up a conversation with someone when we are upset about a situation - we talk to a total stranger about personal issues that we cannot present to our love ones, yet we are either misunderstood or viewed as promiscuous when we ask what's wrong or can I help.

Can We Talk! How was your day? What made it so great? Is there something you would like to share with me or anyone who would take the time to listen? I would like to strike up a conversation with you to understand what someone else missed, in that last conversation, that put you over the edge. Talk to me... I'm Listening!

There's that nurturing stuff we keep talking about as females and speaking within that personal tone - to share our experiences and verse our communication skill because sometimes the receiver just doesn't get it. Listen closely - I Am Speaking the Queens English.. Gees!

Can we slow down because I cannot understand what we are racing to or from, but we get there quickly and than stay busy until it's time to sleep and no one seems to know what the others day was about or if there are any changes.

Take the time to Listen, Take the time to Hear what others are saying and what's going on around you. Be Positive, so that positive things can take place. Slow down because Life isn't going fast, we are.

Live, Love, and Be Blessed

Wk#6 - Response to Ashley

I agree with you; however, a child needs both parents to have an understanding of the world and themselves. It takes a village to raise a child and knowing this we all serve a part in raising a child from church, school, and etc.. Some people still have that slave mental that dictates mom rearing and developing the male child (while dad is in flight and preaching of his struggles) and each child raised in the same household has a different rearing that is needed to enable and maintain strength of self and a determination of what is right from wrong. Nonetheless, it takes all of us and sometimes it becomes a struggle when we can talk about it, but who is out there to be about it.

Wk# 6 - Response to Professor

Amazingly so, I do not watch T.V. based on this topic and others. Because the concept that females are either "air" heads or "gold diggers" does not appease me and my values of quality time with my family. T.V. has become a bigger idiot box for all, not just children. We are fascinated by others hardships, struggles, and just plain "BS" trials. Have we really become a society with nothing more to do than watch others make fools of themselves? Maybe I' being hard - I think NOT! If I turn on the T.V., I have to monitor what I'm watching because my nephews are anticipating viewing whatever I watch and children seem to pick-up thing quicker than you and I, of yesteryear. Nonetheless, there are shows, documentaries, and other programs that view women and their accomplishment and these are shows that I enjoy watching with my family; however, corny they may find me. It's hard to raise children with values when right in your living room, bedroom, kitchen, family room and any other room with a T.V. (and that's another topic - 4 ppl in a house and thirty (30) Television sets... ROFL!) females are displayed in derogatory roles that have other females depicting it as the way of getting by in society. Dress up, look good, play simple, and you can't have whatever you want. Be a model, throw up and you’ll be loved by all..

Double standards in every way because there were times while getting a pedicure a male would enter the nail salon requesting the same services as I and would be greeted with stares or giggling. We should be able to enjoy life and all that is available to us because we only live once; and when we take the time to care about what other people think the enjoyment goes out the door..

No matter how advance a society is we still remain deprived in accepting change, others, and life.
You work hard for your money, so you should be able to play hard and if playing hard means tanning and enoying the beauty of a coppery bronze tone - make it happen. And any other male who enjoys doing the same or getting a bikini wax - do you..

Peace Be Still!!

This is why women were created from the back bone of men because men truly need our support, understanding, and darn sure our compassion. We are the pillar of strength that make s life easier for them, for nothing is perfect, but we seem to have a way of making things workout.

Congrats 10 Year Survivor! I hope all works out for your friend and her family and I know when it comes down to it that your husband and Rich will begin speaking on the fears that they didn't wish to discuss. We all digest things differently and maybe that's exactly what's going on here.. But everything will work itself out in due time. Believe it or not the first step began when your husband went over with you to their home and that say's a lot.

God Bless and Thanks for Sharing.
