And so she walked out of my life forever

I’ve been listening along for a few weeks, and enjoying the podcast. Today I tuned in to listen to a misogynistic tirade about females being the weaker sex who use Facebook to share emotional posts and generally don’t have business sense. I’m find with a little tough love towards those who have no filter on social media, or those who can’t seem to help themselves get started in business. But associating those negatives with the female sex, and only the female sex, is wrong and pathetically misogynistic. Hopefully this mans sales suffer for this.

I think she wants me...
But, alas, her and I are not meant to be.
Here are a few reasons why:
1. I have never said women generally have no business sense. Just the opposite, in fact. (I sure do get a lot of testimonials from females and do a lot of business with females for a bloke who supposedly thinks that way).
Did the devil make her lie about that in her review?
Or could it be the feelz created a monster where none exists?
2. A lot of women do emote on Facebook, which is perfectly fine and normal. Unfortunately, so do a lot of guys looking for sympathy-based sales/likes/and attention — which was the point of that bit. That whole 4 minute banter was picking on guys, the male sex, not "the female sex and only the female sex".
Girlfriend needs to focus...
3. The word “misogynist” has zero affect on me.
It's as abused, misused, and overused as the 100+ other "ist" and "ism" words these days.
4. Re: women being the physically weaker sex — why would that simple biological, historical, and easily-verifiable fact give her acid reflux any more than it would to a man by telling him women are better multi-taskers?
Unless, of course, she's eagerly looking for reasons to be offended.
5. The incoherence of the last part of her review (about filters, associating negatives, yada yada yada) makes me wonder just how much that 4-minutes of the 27+ minute episode must have rattled her cage.
All right.
Enough ice cream for the soul.
I wish I had SmartFemaleEntrepreneur's mailing address.
If I did, I’d send her a complimentary issue of the upcoming February “Email Players” issue.
Why?
Because not only does it give a rare and detailed look into elBenbo’s love life… but it also shows how I lead my relationship, and how I apply the same principles to my emails and marketing, as well as to my business, customers, and, when I had ‘em, client, relationships too.
Definitely an experimental “off script” issue.
And, there’s not much hard email teaching in it.
(Although I use the principles inside the issue in all my emails, including in *this* email you’re reading.)
If’n you want in before it mails, go here today:
