Clearly, aggression is a survival mechanism and has its rewards. Like Tex noted, it has a role that should not be over-emphasized. It should also be obvious that aggression does not necessarily equal violence.

Yes, right. I played Narz in chess and he kicked my ass with aggressive vigor. In the second game that is. In the first I had him cold, head on the mat, shoulders flat, but for some lack of aggression I let him free.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('PenultimateManStanding', 'Y')ikes! Sounds like you are lucky not to have found your pet bunny boiling in a pot on the stove. Women are every bit the crazy primate that men are, if not more so in the current cultural scene.

If you walk around angry and out of control, bad stuff will happen to you, kind of like Britney Spears. I firmly believe it's best to show grace under pressure, not lose the plot.

Agreed. Not a good thing. So what about the temptation to walk around angry and out of control? Is this tempting you? Are you perhaps trying to stifle an urge to bust out? We are, after all, primates, and we can only take so much 'bad stuff.' Maybe that stupid fuck woman needs to be slapped around a bit. Maybe, secretly, that's what she needs. Of course if you try it, you'll land in jail. She can key your new car and stalk you, but you can't fight back.

In the majority of female-female conflicts, females rarely inflict serious damage to one another over resources.

In Nazi Germany the broken tooth in PMS scenario would have been nothing more but the pre-cursor to a more extended treatment.

I am all for the PMS fist treatment of A-holes, as simple as that.

I met albente's wife. She was good looking and friendly. I can only imagine that she is thrilled to be in Europe now. But we know from albente's posts here that she has a fierce temper. Let's wish them well.

Thanks for the understanding words PMS, being married and raising kids is one kind of a job that reveals the meaning of life: nothing but a mere learning surface/ lesson matrix . We're holding up well here in Europe indeed.
