Thread: In Defense of the Cave Dude…Panamanian or Otherwise!

I am not the person you would expect to stand up for the average dude. If you knew me (and I guess some of you do) you would know that I’m as prone to teasing and bringing guys down to earth as I am to self-deprecation. But lately I have been feeling increasingly sympathetic of my guy friends. Men, it seems to me, get lambasted from every end. They can’t win.

Inspiration in the judgments of women.

Those sudden decisions about pro and con which women tend to make, the lightning-fast illuminations of personal relationships by their eruptions of liking and disliking, in short, the proofs of female injustice have been enwreathed by loving men with a glow, as if all women had inspirations of wisdom, even without the Delphic cauldron and the laurel: long afterwards, their statements are interpreted and explained like a sibyl's oracle. However, if one considers that something positive can be said for any person or cause, and likewise something against it, that all matters are not only two-sided, but three or four-sided, then it is almost difficult to go completely astray by such sudden decisions; indeed, one could say that the nature of things is arranged in such a way that women always win the argument.
