R-E-S-P-E-C-T


If I hear one more man say he respects me in relation to our sexual partnership I think my head will explode. I preface this by saying I suffer somewhat from trust issues but experience has taught me that men lie a lot. I allow all of my associates
to spin whatever fable they like about their circumstances as long as it is thoroughly understood that I don't do the two D's disease and drama. I don't follow-up on the details they share with me but I prefer they task themselves with keeping track of their lies because I can't and inconsistency drives me crazy. A cornerstone of respect is honesty. If they aren't being honest how can it be said I am respected. I don't need the whole story, but if I had it, it would be so much easier to swallow endearing garbage peppered in here and there to curry my favor and retain my cooperation. On some level it insults my intelligence a little, but my own complicit dishonesty is a salve for my bruised ego. Men respect the fact that if I had full disclosure I probably wouldn't be a willing participant.

Speak for yourself !
If women are going to tie respect to honesty, then they should also be consistent and not jump to conclusions when a man is saying XYZ and they cut him off or draw their conclusions at ABC.

Otherwise:
1) Honesty is marked by integrity;
2) Respect is a high regard to something or someone.

In the same manner, what is the proper response to "does these jeans make my ass look big?" when they are two size too small. Is it honesty or respect for her feelings when he says no? This has always been a loaded question and outside of "no comment" the only correct answers may be "compared to what?" or "what do you think?"

If you tell me a story about your giraffe today and then want to talk about your elephant, don't expect me to say, "wow, you have an elephant too?" Giraffe and elephant are the same category and the elephant should have been addressed the first time you tell the story.
