Actually as a man, I see alot of the 'male locker room' antics that
lead me to believe alot of what Trish said is 100% on the money.
Lately, however, I have seen and heard much less of the sort of
behavior that she berates (with adequate justification).  But I
am getting older and started relating to a different crowd of
straight male, so perhaps it is just that I have gotten away from
those in the pit.

Such 'macho' behavior upsets me as much as it upsets Trish, and I
still have a difficult time relating to straight men... and in general
I like men.  One should be able to change ones opinion with the
availability of different facts, and I have found facts that lead
me to believe that 'most' men (that I have met recently) are coming
to drop the macho bullshit.  However, since the flap caused by her
submissions, I may have to revise my opinion again to conclude that
the straight men I have met (in person) recently are not representative
of straight men in general.
