Have you seen the martyr mentality more in Men or Women ?

I chose woman. But maybe I'm only thinking of my mother. But then there's my ex-wife Hmmm. Maybe it's really men but apparently women. There are definitely some dark numbers here.

 

Women a hundred times over.

 

Are you kidding? Women are born martyrs, and they also take lessons on how to let you KNOW they are being a martyr (which I guess isn't really being a martyr now, is it?)

We women have websites and books and all sorts of things trying to get us to be less martyr-like. It's freaky.

Guys are only martyrs if the girl is hot and he's horny.

 

Ohhhh do I beg to differ.....only?

 

No. He won't be the one to be martyred. He'll get his soldiers to die for him.

 

Multiply that by 72 and that explains a lot these days.

 

good point--most of the women I know have that mentality and it bugs me a lot! I know some guys like that, but they are easier to ignore for me

 

Women?! Is being a martyr or simply how stubborn women are?

Seriously though, I'm from Ireland and did a lot of Irish History lately and have become quite patriotic(not that I wasn't before), but both women and men were martyrs for Ireland...

 

+1 to disenchant's post.

 

Women, though they'll take up arms on the tiniest issues.
