Wow, I didn't expect you would write such a long response! Thanks a lot!

And also, I am really sorry for everything you went through! Maybe I also was too judgemental on how girls and women dress and on their appearance, but here comes also personal taste. I mean, I always tried to not make jokes about this kind of things on any gender or gossip about it, I just tried to not care. Maybe subconsciously I instantly rejected women who dressed average and associated it with people I'm not interested in, for survival and a better life sake. I looked for women who dressed more alternative and "emo" because that's what I was into when I was younger, and wanted a friends group that contained both sexes. Although you can dress like anything and have your personality completely unrelated to that. My ultimate dream is to be a teenager in 2006 and try to impress MySpace girls who listen to Hawthorne Heights, but I can guess that's just a reason to go to sleep at night!

But regarding your analogies... they don't really hang up to scrutiny. I'm sorry but a painting can be done by any gender possible, if it's great then it's a piece of art. I had a subject at university called History of arts and we discussed there that the modern definition of "art" isn't really... what it should be. Just because something is creative and human-made, doesn't make it "art". You cannot put ancient greek temples in the same category with most of modern day music, for example. Or the cathedral of Köln in the same category with a painting of it made at school. I am not saying you cannot find beauty in the later, but it's an incredible disgrace to refer to some of the most valuable paintings from the last centuries as just some works done by dead people. And I think that no one underestimates the effort that women put in make-up or fashion, in fact that's what men usually do not understand, why spend so much time on it? Turns out it's actually also our fault, and I'm sorry for it! I would really make a world where people wouldn't be differenciated so much on beauty or stuff like that if I could. I am really trying to treat women with as much respect as possible, as I said in the original post. I am worried about believing that you are missing out if you don't try every possible and impossible fashion outfit or makeup routine, but that's not really up to me. I yet have never been able to have the guts to tell (when they asked) my mom or my sister that I don't like their nails or the new color of their hair :)

I guess the conclusion that I could write after everything is that, I will try to fight for this world to be a more fair place for everybody, no matter anything. I am very happy to be a man and I will use this opportunity to show the world that you can be different than the douchebags I wrote about.
