My own theory: the bitches make us get hard-ons, then won't give us the fucks we want. Bitches.

Maybe I'm missing a bit of cultural sensitivity here, but isn't that the whole philosophy behind the burqa?

Every culture has its version of the Burkha, even if it's only "She asked for it, wearing that skirt".

And the whole philosophy behind "but your honour, she was wearing a miniskirt".

Yup, true...

that too. :)

i've known a lot of gay misogynists as well, though, so i think it goes a bit deeper than just sex...there seems to be a psychological dependence on women (the 'powerful mother' figure) in our species in general, and our culture in particular - ie, men depend on women for sex, and care, and nurturing, and a million other little things that they've been taught they can't get from or give to each other - and there's that freudian (i think) theory that says you end up hating whatever you're dependent on.

but the hard-ons too, yes. that one stands out the loudest. so to speak.
