I have to say I am in agreement with Nafraudi here. As well, I respect Shlomo's post and know why he posted it. However, I think Shlomo is being a bit short-sighted and not seeing how feminism is destroying Western society, including the havoc it is wrecking within the Jewish community. I know it's so easy to blame the man as being the perpetrator and a man who is disgruntled with the current status quo of the female population must be a wife-beater, selfish, hot-tempered, arrogant, sexist, lazy, mean, horrible, etc etc. I find in general, this society pretty much condemns men for everything and women, who are considered an oppressed race, can basically walk away free with murder. Just look at divorce and child support laws in this country. I had Jewish friend who had a million dollar house and good income which he lost when his sexy supermodel wife sued him in court and made a false report about him beating her, even though he never laid a finger on her. Now, he must pay half his income in child support and the house is hers and her new husband, who makes more money than he does.
I agree that being an angry, mean, bitter man is not attractive to women. However, Shlomo, and anyone else who knew me woudl know I am kind, selfless, compassionate and usually not too angry.. Although, every Kahanist has to have a bit of anger, especially in this day and age
.. However, I stand by what I say and I am glad other people can identify with me. I would encourage Shlomo and others to see for themselves the lack of women involved in Orthodox communities here in the Northwest. Anywhere, without large numbers families who were born into the religion will probably face this dilemma.
BTW, I never meant that I wanted an ultra-Orthodox religious girl. I want a girl who is traditional and moral, but not necessarily ultra Orthodox, because I am not that way. If I was so ultra-religious, then perhaps, it would be a bit easier to find a more religious woman, but I am not. And, I don't forsee myself become more Orthodox any time soon. I just never was brought up that way and I fall short of it.. I'm somewhere in the middle religiously, which means I am too religious for liberal new-age Jewish girls, but not religious enough for the Charedim/Chassidic groups of women.
I will try to look for a solution when I can get free time. Right now I am working 12-14 hours a day and trying to keep myself and parents heads above water. So, despite the fact I would love to find a good-hearted and respectful Jewish girl, I very simply don't have the time. And, since nobody from my Jewish community will help, I am pretty much all on my own.
Going to Israel now is not an option, both financially, but also for other reasons. Turning in all my guns, sacrificing my job and living in poverty in Israel under a ultra-leftist government (by my standard) government, isn't exactly enticing to me. Not that America isn't on the same track, but at least there is some hope for the USA.
If I can succeed in my business I will buy property in Jerusalem. I woudln't mind living there if I had the flexibility to leave if things go South. E.g, having my home bulldozed so it can be given to islamonazi terrorists.
