This needs to stop.

I’m glad you said “ supposedly “.....who said that?

I’ve heard treat them mean to keep them keen.

Which many woman like to be treated.

Why would any intelligent woman want to be treated mean to stay keen?
I am sorry but any woman who thinks that way does a disservice to the many women who fought hard for equality ( like the suffragettes)... so should be ashamed of themselves!

I agree Twink. Maybe the men should behave in such a way to ensure the women stay keen? If any man treated me mean, keen would be the last thing I'd be

Now you should KNOW that response will guarantee that I will reply that I fully agree with it - but of course I don't.

There is no way that beating a dog would improve its temperament!

As for the rest, personally I doubt if Aesop wrote it.

It is only because men treated women mean that they (women) became keen to level the playing field and stop men from being mean.

Quite right too!!

I agree that women needed to level the playing field! I just cant understand why any woman would be keen to be with a man who treated her mean. I disposed of any partner who didn't treat me as an equal!

Re: Imran Khan

Equality? That presumes much and is against nature. Kingsley captures the latter in his poem The Three Fishers "For men must work, and women must weep, And there's little to earn, and many to keep, Though the harbor bar be moaning."

The bar in this case is not a dockside boozer (for the benefit of the ignorant).
