Re: Bill and Linda Gates Divorcing.

I totally agree about it not being fact. I was just speculating based on her activism in recent years. From the interview they were staying together for the kids. Perhaps didn't want to disrupt Jennifer's studies and were waiting until Phoebe was grown up enough.

Re: Bill and Linda Gates Divorcing.

Well it seems that having a go at racist people is now out of date, so lets have a go at the feminists now

Some women wanted the vote and fought to get it! Some women wanted to be educated , to get better jobs that paid a fair wage.
Are they feminists , or is it just that some men don't like women who can fight their own battles, provide for themselves and have their own opinions?

Women are no longer baby producing machines that stay home, clean the house & look after their partners. They can do that if they want to, but many are now learning that they can have what they want, do what they want & pay for it themselves!
I would never call myself a feminist, but I would make sure any man treated me as an equal..... otherwise I would not have any man in my life!

Being treated as an equal, like respect, has to be earned. Women seem to forget that.

Re: Bill and Linda Gates Divorcing.

Couldn’t it just be they grew apart and it has nothing to do with feminism? People change in a marriage and sometimes you end up with someone you don’t really know anymore!

They both sound extremely busy people and due to not seeing each other as much, they just may have drifted apart?

One of them might have had bad habits? Sometimes, what endears you to someone at the beginning, starts to irritate you as time passes!

...but then again, none of us know what happens behind closed doors!

Some women and some men seem to forget that...not an entire sex.

It could just be that she is fed up with his morning breath and duvet farts.

Sound a bit selfish to me Twink.....I want, I want, I want, Because men can't have babies they are being blackmailed into submission.
No wonder so many ladies are divorced with that kind of attitude, being married is a team thing, and there is no I in Team....

Well I certainly haven't forgotten. If any man doesn't treat me as an equal & with the same respect I show them, then I don't want him in my life.
You said, in a recent post, " I don't like other people's children" so would you accept that they don't need to show you any respect ?
