do you think you could have done a better job running this country? I would never want President Bush's job in a million years and only have respect for him and for taking the job on. I truly think he did the best he could given the circumstances he was given shortly after being elected. I know you will obviously not agree and that is fine, but I still say it is wrong to call anyone retarded. It is just wrong and uncalled for.

Disrespect, never saw it in my school
might have had our disagreements at home but nah, nothing like today. Our pales by comparison. Disrespect is a cop out as far as I am concerned. The kids need a heck of a lot more discipline because they have been petted too long.
It's not the dirty talk - it's the disrespect (sm)...
It sounds to me that your real problem is that he dislikes and does not respect women in general. Has he always been like this or has he changed? Have you changed the church you go to? Are you getting "male superiority" type messages from church? If not, why not talk to your pastor or minister? I know that it is embarrassing but you can discuss his lack of respect, how he talks and feels about women and, then, let him know that it is effecting you and causing you to withhold "intimacy". Believe me, he'll know what you mean! Furthermore, if I had to guess what caused this change (if he has changed) I would say that your husband's behavior is due to looking at and/or reading demeaning pornography! He is treating you like he would a prostitute and you certainly need to have someone intervene and wake him up. If you cannot find someone to talk to in the church, try a social service "hot line" for women. Men like that can go from bad to worse and you could find yourself in a heck of a bad situation without help! Go get some, now!
I, too was born in the 40s. Sure you heard of disrespect and
bad kids and teenagers, but there it was never, ever to the degree we see it today, and all sorts of new problems like the drug addiction, animal cruelty, arson, carjacking drive by shootings, constant robberies, etc. In my home town a chain of convenience stores was hit about 5 times in the last few weeks. They say they caught the four who were doing it. Also on today's news was the report they caught the murderer they have been looking for. . a youth who killed someone in my home town over drugs. We had our problems back then, but nothing like this. It is totally out of hand.
I learned to disrespect authority. -(nm)-
