Cosmopolitan = artificial and unnatural; Your situation is the aberration - his is more the norm *NM* Cannoli Send a noteboard - 13/07/2011 01:09:00 AM
Honestly, it just seems as if they apply to a certain type of person and doesn't apply to any of my friends. Even worse is the idea that you can generalize how either half of the population behaves based upon their sex.

It seems to me that R.J. came from a somewhat conservative background, and perhaps the fact that I was raised in a cosmopolitan city (New York) whereas he was raised in the south, a lot of his commentary on the battle of the sexes seem quaint and outdated.

That's not exactly what the incident was about. Fanatic-Templar - 10/07/2011 07:29:14 PM 1255 Views
Yes, and the way Egwene expressed her thoughts on the matter is quite disturning too Zeratul - 11/07/2011 12:56:59 AM 1284 Views

Much of Faile's "punishing" was just Perrin's super-nose. Fanatic-Templar - 13/07/2011 03:36:03 AM 1188 Views

You have to make sure your husbands do what you want, while making them think it was their idea. CatherineSedai - 21/07/2011 04:28:39 AM 1266 Views
And I can buy that, which is why I'm surprised at how many claimed they were inaccurate. Seriously, newyorkersedai - 26/07/2011 01:44:28 AM 1270 Views
I always thought it was relatively accurate. Onarishma - 21/07/2011 11:36:41 PM 1224 Views
