it has taken me time to see my mistakes as a man i acted like most men and treated women the way i was brought up i only used women for one thing and like my father a womens role was in the home and not out side in the work force my first marraige i took it for granted i never praised my x wife or told her how i appreciate what she ment to me or how i respected her for what she did not just for me but also being a mother

i am only know in a position wear i am able to share to other men as there are decent and good men out there and not all males are bad or pigs some though go back to the old testamont and do as the muslems do which is stupid and foolish

a women should be able to be her self as she is a free spirit with out any restrictions being placed on her guys do you not know it the women who has the say in who she alows her self to settle down with

i am about to be married to a pastor who is the leader in her church in the philippines in my partners country the women are more stronger then the males and if you look threw history women had an important role to play with in the body look at marry magladine she was a prostitue and jesus readhed out to her and when he set her free she went on to serve the lord

my partner has 7 pastors under her and she is a very strong women in the lord my first partner was not a christian and i could not pray or talk openly with her the sex was good and that was it yet when it came to being open i could not share my feeling as i was able to with my pastor i tried and i found out she just could not handle what i had shared

with my new partner she encourages me she does not throw my past at me and is ever so respect full and she was worried at first as she did not want to tel me she is a pastor as she has come across men who do not feel it is rigth for women to be in such positions as she is in i have read in the old testamont and new testamont and have been around culters wear the women eats last and she has to do everything from cooking to the house work and feeding the kids and meeting her needs last she can not speak up or have a social life she has to obey everything her husband has to say and if she questions it she gets belted for talking up she can not even share how she is feeling

my culture was the same yet women also need to be able to hear the men out with out thinking they are bing ignored as it took me time to under stand how a women feels i learnt by being around decent men and i thank these guys for this

i support my new wife to be one hundred percent and i encourage her every day and i told my partner she wil not be placed in such a positon wear she wil be forced or told to do al the work i do all the house work hear i clean i wash i cook and i mow the lawns and take the rubish out i just left full time work as a commercial cleaner to pesue new intrests know i under stand what my own mother and grand mother had gone threw all the work they did was taken for granted

That was beautiful, damo1. I'm glad you found a woman who respects you and who you can relate to.

And, it's especially wonderful that you are setting an example for your son to respect women.

God bless you,

I wasn't sure exactly what you were looking for Fiosh when you asked this question. "What do you think of women" can mean a lot of differen't things. As far as how I view women in the creation itself, I think they are the greatest gift God gave to men. A woman completes a man. They complement us. Men tend to look at things only in a non-emotional and logical way. Women add to that another side that we otherwise couldn't see. I guess the way I see it, a single man is not a complete person, just as a single woman is not complete. We need each other.

In my personal life, God has blessed me with a wonderful wife. I have been married for 21 plus years, and am very grateful to have her. She is a Christian woman so we have a relationship based on faith in God. I read so many posts by people who are married to unbelievers and see the troubles it causes in their marriages. I met my wife in church, and she has been faithfully serving God all these years. She has stood with me through thick and thin, and that is not always easy. I don't think I am the worst person to deal with, but I am not the easiest either. I believe that God has the right woman for every man, and if there is such a thing as a soul mate, I am married to mine.

Proverbes 18:22 "Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD." No truer words were ever spoken than these.

I'm sorry if I'm going off-topic here, but I see that this thread has died off a bit, so I figure no harm done.

How and why is it that God decides to bless some women with wonderful, godly husbands, and other women he decides to allow to live lonely and miserable lives?

Why is it that some women seem to attract men who respect them and would lay down their lives for them, and other women attract men that beat them and verbally abuse them to the point where they feel like nothing?

I'm honestly a pretty good person.....I'm not a complete wench.....Why is God witholding this blessing from me?

[DarkNebulaWelder]

I am going try this. And I won't be a smart alec. The Lord has blessed me with wonderful women in my life. Without a doubt I am serving the Lord today because of my mom's prayers. She stayed up many a night pacing the floor, praying for me, while I was out doing whatever teenage guys do. I cannot say enough about the powerful impact my mom has had on my life, in every area.

The Lord has blessed with a wife who meets my every need. I never realized how much I needed Marnie until I married her. NO joke intended. There is no substitute for a godly wife; someone to pray for you and with you, and some to pray through with. She makes me laugh, she makes me think, she makes see things in different light and has taught me that just because somebody can't speak, doesn't mean they don't have anything to say. I have learned to listen with my heart.

I would say that I am what I am today because of two special, godly and loving women.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! A man who gets what I'm trying to do! He's a keeper, Marnie.

Okay, that made me cry. Yeah, I'll hold on to him for a bit.

Hi guys,

There's been alot of discussion/debate on the boards lately about the differences between men and women in the Church. I was wondering if some of you men would be willing to share your thoughts on women in general. Why did God make us different from you? What do you see as characteristics in us that you appreciate or that totally confuse/annoy you?

Or anything else that comes to mind.

Here's your chance to respond in love --- rather than in debate.

Peace,

Fiosh

PS. Men only; women please keep out.

God topped off a perfect creation by saving the best for last... Woman

Peace

Okay....soapbox time.

You know, I hear men saying this all the time....how wonderful amd beautiful women are, etc......well, I'm sorry, gentlemen, but I really DON'T think that most men actually feel this way.

I have had nothing but negative and horrific experiences with men. To me, they are abusive, and secretly hate women. I'm sorry if I'm offending anyone here, but this is just how I feel.

Men SAY that they think women are beautiful and special, gift from God, etc., but I also notice that this is mainly in the company of other women. For the most part, I have heard men say that they think women are flighty, stupid, dishonest you-know-whats who use men and cheat on them and do nothing but cause confusion.

.......and what's with these guys who think it's cool to hit a woman? I know that there are plenty of them out there....truthfully, I think that the gentlemen on this board are exceptions to the rule. I think that most any man WOULD hit a woman if he got angry enough. Even if that guy's a Christian....I really do think that there's a tendency towards violence in the male psyche....and especially violence towards women. I think the only thing holding these guys back are cultural constraints and the fear of retribution....and if he's a Christian, the Holy Spirit, of course.

I'm sorry for getting on a soapbox, here, you guys, but my view of men is this....around women, they speak very highly of them, but in the recesses of their mind, there is contempt and disgust.

[DarkNebulaWelder]

Women are humans with slight hormonal and genital differences. I don't think they should be treated any differently than men in most cases. However there are specific areas in life where differences become more apparant, and I think there should be small exceptions that I won't bother to get into.

But generally, women should be treated just like me, and be given the same rights as men.

And they are much nicer on the eyes than men

You almost redeemed yourself there, Ham.

Aww, what'd I say? Men aren't as pretty as women! I don't know how you can argue that!

Some men are....actually, there are some men who make GORGEOUS women!!!!

[DarkNebulaWelder]

Yeah, I know. I don't want to be like this anymore. I used to be sad, now I'm angry. I want to be happy now.

I want to go back to marveling at women and how beautiful and graceful they are. I want that tingly feeling to come back when I get to talk to a pretty girl, instead of resenting them.

If even one had ever given me a chance, I probably wouldn't be like this. But "nice guys" have no confidence and try to hard to stand out as a gentleman. Who knew that would actually repel females?

I will pray for you. "Nice guys" never repel me! I married one such fellow!

FloatingAxe....count your blessings.

Men, you think WOMEN are a gift from God...Trust me, a godly and decent man is so rare these days
