I'm trying to think of something that women have that equals hunting and I can't. Something that is a hobby but women insist that they are entitled to do it for day's at a time away from their spouse no matter what else is going on in life.
I know that people in other areas of the US or other countries might not get it, but in some states it is a given right that men will spend four weekends in a row away from their wives hunting. It doesn't matter who is sick, what else is happening, who is in town, whose birthday it is. The man MUST go hunting. Literally it is as if it is an imperative and for a woman to even try to suggest he not go would be like turning the order of the universe on its ear.
And I think I want my hunting. I want the god given right to go out in the woods for a month worth of weekends by myself and be alone, leave the kids and spouse behind and just be in stillness away from the responsibilities of my life. And no one can question me or guilt me out of it. Is that too much to ask for? Seriously.
