Yes that would be it, the unresolved mixed bag of bad apples and sour
grapes.  Marriage can appear to smooth out the rocky road especially
having someone else to share the ride with.  It is when the melding of
minds evolves to butting heads that it all winds up in the mixed bag
with all the rest.  I tend to disagree with the view that men fear
women.  I think it is the other way around due to centuries of male
domination and the reality that it could all go backwards at any given
time especially following a catastrophic global event that cripples
the modern world, cut off communication and laid waste to the world as
we know it now.  In such a chaotic situation women would fall back a
few hundred years.  Women are capable of learning but the truth is
that if women were the leaders of the world they purport to be they
would have ruled the world centuries ago.  Men forged the world since
our primordial beginnings.  Women are where they are today only due to
political maneuvering.  Call me what you like, I've heard it all
before.  Sexist, chauvinist pig whatever, it doesn't bother me because
I'm secure with my gender which is something that women have never
been happy about; their gender.  Generally speaking that is, I'm sure
there are some that are happy being traditional women without having
to prove they are equal to men.  I love women who are women not trying
to be something else.  The reality is that is all hasn't changed that
much for the majority of young girls and women.
