The song above is 'I am Woman' by Helen Reddy. The video also shows the sad toll of violence against women in the USA. Don't worry I'm not about to say how bad things are in the US compared to anywhere else, as they are horrendous everywhere.

As you may well have noticed we are a group of girls going from a position of relative power as male to a far less safe role as women. Heaven forbid that any form of violence happens to one of us girls, but statistically I would imagine if is more than likely that it will.

I don't know about other girls, but you could say I was subject to constant domestic violence whilst I was married. I was often verbally attacked which then turned into physical attacks. However, as a man I could not retaliate against a woman. I couldn't help thinking that in terms of her violent nature my wife was 'more a man than I'd ever be!!!"

Perhaps my wife's 'antics' were just giving me a taste of what it was like to be a battered woman, which is something I would hate to happen to a single one of us! If iit does happen please report it and get help!

Why is it? I am still a man with (sadly) all my parts, but on one of the internet 'friends' boards I still get a succession of what I can only describe as dirty old men wanting to get into my knickers!! They would certainly get a shock if they did for the next few years!! (lol)

Ok, so I admin I managed to look feminine in the photographs. And this is railing against what is still my physical sex, but why is it the most ugly and lecherous men who become the dirty old ones?
