i have more male mates than female mates. Always have done even in junior school. Have always got on better with blokes than females. As far as Im concerned some blokes particularly between the ages of 16-20 all they think of is women are for one thing and one thing only - its drummed into them from tv and magazines. Not by their mums but outside influences. Even in school in human biology its drummed into them about contraceptives not treating a girl/woman with respect. Once though theyve got out of the teenage years and into their twenties they grow up a bit not much but they seem to settle down and realise that they wont get anywhere without respect. But it does work both ways if a woman treats a bloke with respect she should get respect back. I know me personally wouldve given them some stick back if theyd have done that to me mind you no one whistles at me - unless theyre blind!

Times are a changing though kids are more streetwise nowadays than what i was when i was a kid and that isnt that long ago! Like we wouldnt have had the guts to nick their dads credit card and pay for porn on sky like what happened to one of my mates. His son is 14! Would you have done that?

Its all mainly to do with tv and magazines and books and radio. You look at all the tv programmes how they portray women and men.
