5 Things Most Men Have to Learn the Hard Way in Life
PJ Media ^ | 16 May 2018 | John Hawkins

I do not envy young men in our society. A lot of them grow up without strong male role models. They’re shoved through an education that treats them like defective girls and they come out of that into a world that incessantly feeds them mixed messages. Be chivalrous... chivalry is sexism that means you think women are inferior! Women love strong alpha males... women want men to be sensitive and emotional. It’s your job to take care of and provide for your family… men are expected to do whatever their wife tells them to do, etc., etc., etc. There are so many of these that I could do a whole article on it (Mental note: Do whole article on the contradictory messages men get from society.)

Clearly this author is totally unfamiliar with the Political Class, because there is no doubt that some people are valued for who they are, and short cuts are definitely possible.

Avoid marrying children of alcoholics.
They become programmed to not trust anyone.
Very hard to put behind you.
Psychologist told me this about my ex.

Looking for a mate after you’ve turned 50:

1) She should be beautiful

2) She should be rich

3) She should be a best friend and a loving wife

Pick any two, but settle for #3

No matter what they say, women do not want nice guys.....except as friends they can cry to about the last jerk they went for right before they go for the next jerk to come along. If you want the girl, you’re going to have to be much more hard nosed about pursuing the things you want. Being nice won’t get you there.

A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn’t. A man marries a woman expecting that she won’t change, but she does.

If this were taught in school..., there would be far less divorces!!! "Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus" should be required reading!
