Alright, there was a "get with it topic"...and this didnt really fit so I thought I would start a "way to go" one!!

Really just wanted to say that I liked the opening thoughts shared in the last couple of newsletters, and especially liked Dr Paul's perspective today as he talked about advising BOTH men and women and his desire to bring the sexes together harmoniously. While I acknowledge that as women gather we will likely be true and supportive to one another in our challenges with men , and I am sure that the men will give lots of pats on the backs and lift one another up as well........I very much appreciate the encouragement to not think in adversarial ways as we do so. We have all had negative experiences with the opposite gender......some very possibly because the other person was greatly immature or just a 'bad egg', but some because they were merely responding to US. ......and recognizing the latter is where our OWN growth and learning comes from.

As a woman I honestly believe that MANY of the women out there that I meet in everyday life have truly joined "the manhaters club" even though they may not openly admit it or make OBVIOUS statements as such.....but it does come out in little ways in attitude and dealings with men....... and I am sure that the same is true of men as well. I think that when we have bad experiences and especially hurtful ones that it is very much a decision to not join those ranks, even subtly. For me, I have CHOSEN to like and respect men and to believe that there are wonderful guys out there, and I find that when I exude these attitudes or share them with men, they are quite pleasantly surprised.... Sometimes shocked!!!

Anyway.....just wanted share some of what percolated for me as I read todays newsletter (titled flirting vs seduction). Thanks Dr Paul.

Great idea starting this thread, mthuckleberry!

I don't say this very often (though I think about it A LOT) but I'm extremely grateful for everything I've learned from Dr Paul, and I think his Mission is awesome and very much needed in the world. And furthermore, to help him in his mission in any way I can is something that masculinizes me and fills me with passion!

Cheers Dr Paul! You rock! You are an inspiration to us all!

Thanks guys.

You too, are bringing men and women together, and I think it's okay that they meet with each other before going out into the jungle to mix it up!
