Is the President of the United States the most powerful man in the
world, when he can't even get a blow job?

No. He isn't.

Its the Ayn Rands, Anne Landers, the Doctor Laura's who rule the 
world.

Losing their yuouthful beauty, and their power over their men, 
or men in general, they fight back with all that have.

Its not their fault any more than it is a man's fault to after
7 years, seek a mistress. 

He probably wanted to since the day after their first child was
born and after the love canal got stretched, the pleasure was gone.

Oh sure, you can dress up, use puppets, etc, but nature's way
is nature's way.

Men in North America are emasculated. They have been reduced
to mere shadows of their former selves.

Women asked for their freedom. To be free from staying home
and looking after the kids, and keeping house. They wanted
to have freedom. Can you blame them?

Society now must cope, with marital units in disarray. Mixed up
scenarios where both work, and strangers raise the kids.

And as it goes, as soon as couples have 2 incomes, society 
demands it. Buying a houses require it. Thats the capitalist
way. What the market will bear. 

Out there somewhere, is a land, where life is good. Where people
don't struggle just to keep themselves in slavery, where people
aren't afraid to touch. Where people can accept they way they are
and are not filled with remorse, and bitterness, because of it.

Somewhere.

Out there.

But not here.
