I suppose that's one way of dealing with a certain type of man.

I would say the type of man I normally go for wouldn't have the posters in the first place, definitely not in a main room like that, and if he had, he would take them down in a blink of an eye. Unfortunately my current boyfriend is something of a misogynst and the easiest way to deal with him probably would be to follow your advice...

However, I don't see why I should lay down what I believe in for what he believes in. I'm no going to submit to a man for an easy life and live up to my gender stereotype.

I knew what I was getting into in this relationship but equally so did he and I will not allow him to be totally uncompromising. I don't think it's fair to compromise feelings for male pride. Maybe he wasn't aware of this as we have only been together 7 months but he is about to become very aware. I will not tolerate someone keeping posters of no sentimental vlue, that they don't even notice simply because they've been up there so long, just so they can exert their male pride.

... If the posters are up next time I'm there (because he finally agreed to take them down), then they'll be coming down by my hands. He will be absolutely pissed but that's a lot less concerning for our relationship than me being the angry one.

Oh and @mydreamisGcup, I would compromise... if totally necessary. I do let him have his Kelly Brook calander and his Lucy Pinder poster and all the totally grotesque pictures in his garage...

Men are so gross.
