Gene Simmons–Gives his Opinions to Women
Nobody Flashes
This is a fun watch, because Gene ALWAYS has opinions. What’s even funnier is that for years he didn’t marry his long time mate Shannon, so that he didn’t have to be faithful, and then, when he started hitting the old age, and the young girls didn’t find him appealing anymore, he decided to get married…on TV so that he would make some money.
The advice he gives, he gives from his own perspective that men just think about themselves, the point that feminists have been making for years. Hillary should JUMP on this.
The real problem with women, which Gene forgets, is while men’s hormones rage, so do women’s. The urge to have a child is overbearing, and as a species, it really IS better and healthier to have children when the women is younger….life is just not that easily managed.
I don’t know what women he is talking to here, I am assuming white women, who are already doing just that: NOT having mates and children, and when they do, the government is supporting them.
He seems to give the whole male race a pass on ever growing up.
What is pretty weird about Gene’s opinion’s, is that while it’s good advice and women at this point in time should always earn her own money, because our culture has pretty much thrown marriage as an institution out the window (Unless of course, you are gay)—–Gene is actually suggesting, in his own way to women: use men like men use you.
Realistic? Or just plan stupid? Or is that exactly what’s happening?
What do YOU think?

About
I am a nobody. If the different classes of America were color-coded, I would be in the yucky brown, one rung up from the bottom. I grew up in Naples, Florida and live near the Mississippi River now with my husband and two dogs. I am part of the slowly disappearing middle-class. I was a musician most of my life: drummer/singer/keyboards—but I retired before the plastic surgery flu hit. I have no degrees, which could be a good thing…depending on how you view our educational system. I do have three patents…but that really doesn’t make me a somebody. The one thing that is constant in my life is my OPINIONS, which i have more than perhaps even Carl Sagan could have imagined…mostly political. (yes…my ancestors were crabby buggers)
Hopefully other nobody’s will put their opinions on my site. But, if you happen to be a somebody, you’re more than welcomed to help out.
It’s my Nobody Opinion that Nobody’s Perfect, and Nobody Cares, that Nobody Knows why Nobody Wins, and when that happens, Nobody Wonders, why Nobody Flashes, why Nobody’s Fooled, but then Nobody remembers that Nobody ALWAYS Reports the truth.

Sarah Palin thinks Obama should be spanked for his recent comment on stay-at-home moms: https://www.facebook.com/sarahpalin/posts/10152846037188588
” Barack, do you not know any stay-at-home moms? Are you and Michelle so disconnected from the real world that you think women will accept your intolerant view that we should not have a choice in how we wish to live our lives? You have a way of arrogantly demanding that we fall in line with your sad opinion of today’s American woman. It seems you’d shackle us by your snobbish shunning of one traditional lifestyle choice while taking advantage of power to manifest your liberal view by manipulating public opinion and resources to diminish moms who put career on hold to raise a family. You are really messed up. And you’re so 1960’s.
Yes, the 60’s are calling and they want their ardent yet narrow sexist confines back. See, you just set the women’s movement back a few decades, and I think it’s hilarious because for being the smartest man in the room, you ain’t too smart.”
Tell it, Sarah!

The best thing that came out of John McCain’s run for President was— Sarah Palin. I could listen to her every day!

I agree….BECAUSE I wanted to be at home when my son got up to go to school, and be there when he got HOME from school, I worked at night. Luckily, after my first husband left us, (my son was just a year old) my parents let me live in their home, and they put him to bed. I would get home at 2 or 3, and get up at six to get him off to school, and I did that for over 30 years. I went back to sleep after he got on the bus…
And because I choose to work four hours at night (so I could be with my son during the day) I did not make the money for SS. I’m lucky that I found a great guy to marry again, although it was 14 years later.
That was an excellent point snopercod0–about the taxes.
Sarah and her husband worked it out. And how they have stood up against the onslaught I have no idea. She is one strong woman.
While politicians have tried relentlessly to change the reality of nature, it’s still the best for the mom to be at home with the babies. Like the birds, we ARE nesters. We can go out and have careers sure, but when it come to kids, we have instincts that men don’t. Kids need the moms, especially in the first years of their lives.

Sorry Joyanna, I could only stomach 2 minutes of that crap. Are we supposed to take life advice from a rock star who has NEVER had a normal life or a monogamous relationship? Sure, we men are always self-centered pigs, but that doesn’t mean we can’t be relied upon to take care of our mates. Maybe there was more than a little psychological projection in Simmons’ statement?
Let’s back up a minute to the time when men were the breadwinners and women were the child-rearers and house-keepers. It wasn’t that long ago. I’m actually old enough to recall the days when a typical man with an average job could earn enough by himself to support a wife and children. All that ended during the Carter Inflation of the 70s and 80s, and many women (including my wife, to whom I’m still married) had to take a part-time job just to make ends meet.
I guess I’m old school because I believe that women are biologically designed for staying at home and caring for children, and men are biologically designed for bringing home the bacon (as it were). But these days, I don’t see how a young couple can aspire to buy a new car or a home without both the man and wife working. So I see this first and foremost as a monetary problem rather than a cultural problem. But that’s another topic.
I think that a lot of modern women are discovering that working 9-5 every day at a “career” isn’t as “fulfilling” as the feminists promised them it would be. Unfortunately, by the time they realize they’ve been had – if they ever do – they’re too old to have kids.
Some women are cut out to manage a career. a husband, and raise children at the same time; I say “More power to them” to those rare women like Sarah Palin who can pull it off. For most of us, though, the traditional ways are best.
I could go on, but I’ve probably already pissed off most of your female readers…

Good rant snopercod! While I had a “career” as a musician, it was because I enjoyed it. When I retired, my husband liked the thought of me staying home, and I enjoyed it too. Right now, like most Americans, we give up luxuries many moons ago. I haven’t been out of Missouri since 2000. Our vacations are spent usually doing house chores. I’m with you. When men could make a decent enough living, things were much more normal. All these single mothers have REALLY harmed the kids. And, I hate to say it, but I think the government BY DESIGN, wants to get rid of that middle class… Gene Simmons, is trying to sell a book….I don’t think…personally, either one of us would stop to even say hello to him if we saw him in a crowd. .

Don’t get me wrong – I admire talented women like you, I just don’t think it’s right for a woman to let somebody else raise her kids while she pursues a career. Somehow, Sarah Palin pulled it off, but many times she took her kids with her to her office and on the campaign trail.
I agree that the federal government WANTS women to work for one simple reason: More tax receipts. It’s a great deal for Social Security because women generally work fewer years and have less income…but they pay the same tax rate. So when it comes time to retire, they usually receive about half the benefits a man gets. War on Women!
