(18,563 posts)Now you can stop trying to paint me as a woman hater. It's become epidemic here to overreact to gender bias, and I'm not going to fall victim to it for this.
And yes, If his highness was admitted for a case of the flu, strep throat, or even a sprained ankle, I'd say he's wasting a hospital bed that could be occupied by someone who actually needs it. Someone worse off who was told their illness isn't serious enough to warrant an extended stay.
I don't say that because I hate men or have less respect for them, but because he should be told at the hospital that he'll be miserable for a few days or so, and that he should suck it up and be treated at his physician's office and sent home to recover. He - and yes, her highness as well - even have a staff of devoted servants there to make their temporary misery more bearable.
I say this about the prince but don't at all expect a group of men here to pile on me for trying to brand all men as "sissies" or hypochondriacs. Please don't take every comment about someone personal - or as a universal attack against half the population.
