I am part of an ‘urban tribe’ consisting of about 15 never married/long divorced single women in our 40s. Several years ago two of my closest friends and I realized how much time we spent man bashing. Much of it was good natured ribbing. However we realized that if a man said that about a woman we would deck him.

Since then we have pulled back on the amount and nature of the male bashing. Also in the past couple of years I have developed close friendships with two married men (no hanky panky) and realize how alone and isolated they feel.
