Country boys treat women equally..

..well emotionally. I have seen that fights between 'country' couples are a little different than the ones that occur around in suburban couples. In a country couple fight the woman when upset is left to herself without any consolation provided by the man. Just like how the man is left to himself when something upsetting is said or done to him. Very simply put because its is what I have observed. In this case, the woman and the man treat each other the same way, showing equality amongst both genders. At the same time although off topic, what "man" needs consolation right, he is a man for god sakes. On the other hand, in suburban couples, where I relate myself to, I assume the men to be more sensitive and understanding per se. A fight here is where a woman is upset over something said or done is consoled. A man takes her sadness and crying, in some cases, to his heart and feels bad and tries to do things in his reach to make it better. But, anything upsetting said or done to the man goes unconsoled. Because what "man" needs consoling anyways, he is a man for god sakes.
Why isn't the same kind of emotional equality given to both genders in this case? Maybe the women are the same everywhere, but the men differ. Or is it just the case of nice guys finish last no matter what the geographical setting it is.

We Believe in Mich-again?! WTF

I feel that amongst all states in America that have gone down, the worst has been Michigan. You can see its downtrodden condition in its heart, namely Detroit. The most dangerous city to live in the US is Detroit. Once a booming town, now half the city lies with dilapidated structures. 15-16 storey buildings, stand abandoned. The car industry has gone down leaving many many jobless. The state has one of highest population of obese people. We have ugly people to go with our ugly surroundings. I feel so much resentment because since I live in Southfield, 5 mins from Detroit and go to school in Detroit. Every time I enter this massive city, I feel dissapointed. How can a state, I mean any state, not have a decent downtown to its main city. How bad has suburban culture gotten that people forgot 'the city', 'the city' that used be the place to go for the weekend and anything Cool. I have lived in East Lansing and Ann Arbor, but after being associated to Detroit, those cities do not show what Michigan is or have anything to do with it really. Detroit shows what Michigan is.
I am thinking Arkansas probably didn't have such a glorious past that it could look for a future. But we did and now we don't. The young ones want to leave the state and move away. Amongst all surrounding mid-west states, ours is the one that is suffering the most.
