I have decided there is no such thing as romantic love. ."

Somehow I missed the entrance to the world of happy spouses.

Romantic love is a construct of American Cultural Imperialism solely designed to alienate women from our natural sexuality and distance us from our true feelings to the point we won't know what we're doing and won't even care with whom.
Sadly, it is effective; on women *in* relationships (and not just het ones) and women not and (the worst and most dangerous) women looking for a relationship
[and I will not add "gets down off soap-box" or "pushes inner Late 1970's - early 80's Feminist Ideologue back into cargo-bag of memento's of Glorious Revolutionary Past" because I talk like this all the time. Really]

Yeah, there was a run of people there for a few posts telling how long they had been together with their Various Others. (I was even one of them!) Re-reading it en masse it was *just too much*. Of course each of us was only speaking for herself but it made such a stream of posts.
