I think I have hit upon the explanation of how otherwise smart, interesting, normal men turn into such pussywhipped girls when they meet a particular kind of bitch that all of their friends hate with a passion.
This discovery came about on Amtrak when I was given no choice but to eavesdrop on a conversation between two midlife men. They were sitting across the aisle blabbing about their lives and I was mindlessly checking my blackberry emails and handicapping the Breeder's Cup entries and listening without interest when suddenly the conversation turned to "wimmen." My inner Yenta could not be denied.
The gist of the conversation, centering around the incredibly depressing prospect of weekend activities with soccer games, family entertainment, in laws, was how these men prefer women to "take over" because they are busy with their jobs so they figure an aggressive bossy woman gives them a "break" from being decisive and always in charge. I think that explains it.
Men just cannot be bothered with thinking about anything other than their dicks, their jobs and recreational activities that they alone deem worthy. Anything else is just noise, but acknowledging that there ARE nonwork demands made on them, they become so damned grateful for a bitch to take charge. They don't pay any attention, remember, EVER, to ANYTHING not work or fun related, and having to be decisive at work takes so much out of them that they basically all are vulnerable to the bitch takeover.
The pussywhipped behavior happens when the reckoning comes: when there is a conflict between two competing factions of his life, either friends and family and the BITCH. This is when the chickens come home to roost, when the bitch starts sticking her proverbial high heel in his eye, when the shit hits the fan and he realizes that "UT OH, I'm going to make Broomhilda MAD" and when Broomhilda gets MAD he just has no experience in handling it, so he turns into a girly man. Ergo, friends lose, bitch wins. Because among other things, most men hate conflict believe it or not. The only conflict they engage in is the conflict they chose or the conflict they are stuck with in the workplace.
PW girly man caves in and lets the bitch have her way and that's the way it stays forever and ever because people never change and bad habits like this are just impossible to reverse.
It's not really "sex" related, turns out. It's mind related. It's mental. The term pussywhipped has such a universal understanding that it really is the word to use even if it isn't very accurate.
It is a damned shame and I really don't think there is a cure for a pussywhipped man girl. My father's wife was a horror show from hell on wheels who deserves to burn in hell, so you could say I have plenty of experience with this fact of life.

Fucking Political Correctness and Politicians
Continuing on my theory that politicians create problems to give themselves jobs, the creative process of politicians by definition must involve little to no actual effort. Now lets add the soft curriculum majors in subjects like sociology and political science and communication to invent a thought crime but give it another name and write text books: political correctness. In the real world, in the classes where questions are asked that actually have answers, somewhere along the line someone SHOULD have asked what the fuck, exactly, does it mean to be "correct"before actually legitimizing and mainstreaming this academic idiocy.
Well then the politicians hit pay dirt here: academic assholes were able to invent something to give their fellow nonacademic assholes jobs where they don't have to lift a finger, create anything, add to the GNP, NOTHING, but ruin people's lives and reputations that disagreed with them and inserted a whole new REGULATION into the public discourse. Thanks to the 24 hour cable news cycle, they also have a distribution vehicle AND the media companies don't need to pay for content: it's just MADE UP as you go!
Because it isn't the truth. Politicians hate the truth. Fucking political correctness is mainstreaming lies and blackmail.
I am so glad I am not an atheist.

Politicians and Problem Solvers
So I just figured out something else. I am not a politician because I hate bullshit. Hating bullshit, when I see a problem I try to solve it. Politicians thrive on bullshit; without bullshit, there would be no need for them and their fucking 2,000 page verbal/literary abortions called "bills", like this "health-care" monstrosity. Anyway, politicians have no interest in solving problems.
I am SO GLAD I am not an atheist or I would be slitting my wrists right now.

Lifted from Mispou While Looking for the Spelling of Kinnehora
Yeah, so I'm up to no good first thing Monday morning, that is, I hope to scuttle the NBC Comcast deal by using the KINNEHORA, or KINEHORA, and wishing it well. So I google the phonetic spelling and found this page.
The Joys of Yiddish-- Yiddish Dictionary
* Ahftseloches (ahf tseh luh chass) n : inevitable bad luck. The result of a kinehora. The boss calls you in to tell you of your promotion and you have a piece of spinach lodged between your front teeth. Aftseloches, you think. Something like this had to happen!
* Alevai (ah leh vai) : "It should only be!" A seemingly hopeful exclamation which is actually an admission of hopelessness.
* Chazerai (chah zuh rye) n : Junky, unsubstantial stuff. What you win at the state fair. For lunch your teenager has caramel corn, marshmallows, pizza and pop—that's chazerai!
* Chutzpah : Colossal nerve. Theodore Bickel—who murdered his parents, then pled for mercy in court because he was an orphan—has chutzpah.
* Feh : A word of utter disgust.
* Genug : Enough already!
* Goniff n : A thief.
* Gornisht : Nothing! What your kid will get for next Hanukkah if she doesn't start cleaning her bedroom.
* Hock a chinick (hock a chy nik) : To prattle, to go on about nothing at an inappropriate time.
* Kinehora n : A curse in reverse. A colleague says with best intentions; "Looks like you're going to get a promotion, Jack." Kinehora! You quickly cover his mouth, for to utter such a thing is to ensure it will never happen.
* Kishnev n : A city in Russia. Any place so far away you don't know or care to know how to get there.
* Klutz (rhymes with guts) n : A clumsy, awkward person. A person who trips over things, bumps into walls and has "two left feet." A klutz is a person who frequently trips on his own shoelaces, falls over furniture and manages to drip mustard on his/her lap with such regularity that it confounds the laws of probability. Klutz's, however, are not unloved because they are usually the victims of their own misdeeds.
* Kvell (rhymes with swell) v : To express pleasure in a gentle manner. To exclaim joyfully or proudly, especially in boasting about the achievements of a family member. What you do at your child's Bar/Bat Mitzvah.
* Kvetch v or n : To complain in a nagging or whining way. A person who kvetches, is a kvetch. The kvetch can never be satisfied; for the kvetch, nothing ever goes right.
* Maven (rhymes with haven) n : An expert or connoisseur, often self-proclaimed.
* Mazel n : Luck. "That boy has such mazel!"
* Mazel tov : An expression of congratulation.
* Meshugana adj : Crazy, mad, insane. Meshugas n : craziness, madness, insanity.
* Mish mash (mish rhymes with dish, mash with squash) n : A hodgepodge, jumble, mixture.
* Nu : So!?
* Nosh (rhymes with Josh)v or n : To snack, munch, or graze—i.e., "Are you still noshing?" A nosh can be the object of the noshing—i.e., "Do you want a nosh?"
* Nudnik n : A pest of the human variety, the nudnik drives everyone crazy with his activities. Always present and always in the way, the nudnik is often tolerated but rarely loved.
* Oy gevalt (oy geh vahlt) : "May a great power intervene on my behalf." Used in desperate situations like when you get a call from the IRS or your dog digs up the neighbor's prize rose bushes.
* Oy veh (oy vay) : A combination of oy gevalt and veh is mir. An expression of exasperation, i.e., "What now?!" or "Oh, no!"
* Plotz : To feel so tired, excited or bursting with emotion that you could fall over. "When I saw him after all these years I felt like I could just plotz!"
* Potchka v : To make a mess, to mess around, to mess up.
* Putz (rhymes with klutz) n : A person regarded as simple, stupid, foolish.
* Shlep v : To drag. Not merely move an object, but to accept a greater burden than any person should be expected to—i.e., to shlep yourself to the mall to shop for Hanukkah presents, shlep the load of presents to your car, then shlep them into your house.
* Shlemazel n : These are the poor souls who are victims of shlemiels; the ones always having the soup spilled on them.
* Shlemiel n : All shlemiels are klutzes but are rarely loved because the victims of their "klutziness" are generally innocent bystanders. A true shlemiel is a waiter who invariably spills soup on his clients.
* Shlock : Anything cheap or inferior; junk, trash. A schlockmeister is someone who deals in shoddy goods.
* Shlump n : A person who is stupid, foolish, inept, boring and/or poorly dressed.
* Shlumper n : A lost soul. The shlumper always wears mismatched socks, a sweater two or more sizes too large, a shirt that is never quite clean and slacks that look as if they were last pressed a year ago.
* Shmaltz n or adj : Usually, rendered chicken fat used in recipes such as matzah balls. Also means something overly sentimental as in a schmaltzy movie or schmaltzy music.
* Shmatta (middle "a" pronounced "ah") n : A rag or something equivalent. "What, you want to wear that old shmatta?"
* Shmear : To smear. More commonly used to refer to an activity with all its related features as in "the whole shmear."
* Shmendrik n : Someone who should have known better. A person who thinks a shlumper can be reformed (it's impossible) is a shmendrik.
* Shmoe : A shortened version of schmuck; not quite as derogatory.
* Shmooze v : Idle talk, gossip, chat. To shmooze is to have a lightweight conversation, one not serious in nature.
* Shmuck n : A contemptible or foolish person; a jerk.
* Shmutz (rhymes with puts) n : Dirt; as in, "What's that shmutz on your shoe?"
* Shnook n : A person easily imposed upon, cheated or pitifully meek.
* Shnorrer n : A person who lives by begging or by sponging on others; a freeloader.
* Shnozzle, schnoz n : Slang term of reference for the nose as in Jimmy Durante/Shnozzola.
* Shtick n : Literally, a piece. Popularly, a person's "specialty" or bit. Singing is Barbara Streisand's shtick, giving audiences is the Pope's shtick, comedy is Jerry Seinfeld's shtick.
* Tsuris n : Difficulties, aggravation, worries, woe, misery. Tsuris covers a wide assortment of problems; tsuris is what nudniks have and are only too willing to share with others. Trouble, Jewish style.
* Tush (rhymes with push ) n : Term which refers to the part of the anatomy upon which you sit.
* Ungehpotchkeyed (ung geh potch keed) adj : Messed up, fussy, overdone.
* Veh is mir (vayz mir) : "I am pain itself!" A most melodramatic expression of suffering, used to describe everyday miseries such as shaving nicks, sinus headaches or acid indigestion. A favorite expression of kvetches and yentas, often preceded by oy.
* Verkocteh (fur kock teh), verkoct adj : A ribald word meaning worse than crappy.
* Vershtickt : Choking, gagging. The feeling you get when cleaning your freezer after a long power outage.
Yenta n : A kvetch par excellence, the yenta will rarely tell you what is wrong and thrives on her ability to complain about absolutely anything to anyone, anywhere. A gossip or busybody.
