Do You Have a Whore/Madonna Complex?
I know that this is said used as a description of how some men as a relate to women: that many men look at women either whores or Madonnas (not the pop singer, Jesus' Mom) and that it interferes with their healthy relating to women as full human beings. Men, does this really exist? And do you have this complex?

Women DUers, I am curious do you ever perceive men to have this Whore/Madonna Complex? Or is it bunk?

1. I knew I should have just asked the question
I used too serious of a tone in the explication.
Now I'll never read the Dada wisdom of the Loungers.
Live and learn.

4. Why can't it be both at the same time?

"A lady in public and a whore in the bedroom".

I thought the attribution of the above was to Robert Heinlein but now I'm not sure.

On edit: Spelling
