You misunderstood. Posting "Men get this straight!" with the finger-wagging exclamation mark triggers our anti-lecture and anti-scold radars. Now you know.

Yes, I do have a tendency to be a bit passionate and finger waving at times in my discourse (male and female a like). Needless to say, I've had to pick a strong man that won't let me push him around :-). I grew up with loads of older teasing brothers and a tough passionate father. I learned early on to be a warrior and to correct harshly at times.

But you are right. No one likes to be exclamation pointed :-), especially the guys. Sometimes passion takes over. Ah, thank God for God.

But I have found men like it clear and straight. Sometimes it makes them angry, but they like the directness, compared with some of these mamby bamy, wormy, unclear communication styles we often see with women when addressing men. Be clear and direct is my motto. It is best to be kind as well.

WARNING: THIS IS AN EXCLAMATION POINT FREE POST.
