Men are always?

How did you arrive at this conclusion?
Do you see men in this forum operating in that way?

... so do men.

So far, what you're describing is no different for men, and it reads like you're merely injecting your personal experiences into a broader context.

That's unfortunate, though absent critical contextual information, that could mean a million things.

How did you determine that this was their thought process?

How do you know what all of their personal relationships were like?

You speak with a fair amount of certainty regarding their internal thoughts, motivations, and a seemingly detailed knowledge of the personal relationships they don't have.

So how is it that you know all these intimate details about all of them?

Based on?

I'm sure that happens. But again- how do you know that they have NO network aside from their wives and children?

You're projecting an awful lot of your personal experiences- and your personal perceptions of those experiences- onto men as a whole.

As it stands, your assessment is heavily skewed and falls right in line with many of your extremely one-sided agenda takes on most subjects.

Considering you once said that pedophiles should "stick to third world countries," and, as you put it, "leave normal children alone" doesn't exactly build a great track record to give you the benefit of the doubt here.
