I love how you put your points across Lyndie.I enjoy reading your posts.

I think control and domination is not just a Turkish "man thing" my Mother was regularly beaten, raped and humiliated by my Father. Woken up when he came home from the pub and made to get up and cook for him and his man friends.We ran awy in the middle of the night and he recently died a lonely old man!

This is 2005 nearly 2006- women should not have to put up with such treatment- in the UK, in Turkey, in Eygpt in any place or country.

I don't think there will be sooo much of a problem if we, women, (ohh how i love to generalize every now and then ) would accept the fact that 'our men' need to feel powerful.
I don't wanna cook and wash 24/7, but I'm not aiming for a fulltime job with good salary. There should be balance. And balance doesnt mean you do both 50% of the household. Balance means your happy with the situation because you feel youre not on your own about things.
Sometimes i feel i love him so much, that i would subject myself to him, that I'd be his slave if that's what he wants from me. But that is love: i feel i'm able to do that, because i know he won't ask that from me.
I once said: You have so much power over me, will you promise me never to use that power against me, askim? . He answered: Do you respect me? I said: Ofcourse i do!He smiled and said: If i ever use my power over you against you, would you still respect me?I said that I didnt think i would.. He said: If i loose your respect, I'll loose my power. And you'll be a free strong girl
I think he's damn right about that!

And.. their power.. they only have as much power as we give them. So in the end, aren't we the powerful ones?!

Well she needs to kick that one right out of bed- baths once a week he'd be sleeping in the garden shed if he was mine!!!
They have to at least smell nice even if they're not too good in bed (they can always be taught a thing or two in that department he he he)
