You are so right.

It doesn't talk back. It licks her hand. It cuddles her when she feels needy and clingy. Its perky and fun.

Enjoy that fantasy. This is precisely the type of crap that fueled the feminist revolution.

Pay attention to your wife/girlfriends emotional needs. They are as real to her as your physical needs are to you. You ignore them/belittle them at your peril.

I don't like it when they ask what I'm thinking.

I have a good male friend who when I get a certain look on my face will ask, "What are you thinking?" then shake his head and laugh, "I'm not supposed to ask that."

He said that many times when a woman asks a man that it's usually nothing more profound than I wonder what I'll have for lunch tomorrow...

4. Don't trust everything your girlfriend tells you.

Particularly when she says your guy is a loser and you can do better. Perhaps you can. Very many women I know are bitter because they dumped their guy and now discover that nobody as good as him has any interest in middle-aged women with kids

sounds exactly like my brothers ex-wife....she was perfect like that until she fell in with some so-called christian organization that preached the evils that men do. they even had a divorce lawyer in their little church ( after she attended for 3 months, the divorce papers were served by the little church’s lawyer )....

‘What are you thinking?’ Female here. I was still a teenager when I asked my first long-term boyfriend that a few times and was astounded, I mean completely flabbergasted, to find out that often he wasn’t really thinking of anything at all. (No one in my family was like that.)

My eyes opened about the possible nature of the other sex, I’ve not asked that question for a couple of decades now. Truth be told, however, there are men who are always thinking, usually in an interesting way, and there’s no need to ask them that question.

This little video is spot-on but yet very very funny.

The whole “does this outfit make me look fat” may be entirely based on an honest dialogue but all too often it is based in a valid female fear that the woman’s primary attractiveness to a man is not her mind and character—but instead the outside.

Women tend to not realize that, as long as she's enjoyable company and has a reasonably high libido, she doesn't need to be a supermodel to hold our attention. Television and movies feed this insecurity.

We’ve known each other for 15+ years and only started dating a few months ago.

It definitely looks like she's decided she wants you to decide she's the one for you

“My wife used to ask me that a lot. I started always answering, “About sex.” Now she hardly ever asks :)”

My wife thought that was funny.

Not sure how old you are but let me tell you my perspective on it. It is a constant tug of war between saving the damsel and catching the damsel. Men are knights and hunters. They need something to rescue and hunt. Women are nesters and self obsessed about reproduction. Neither can help it - it is hardwired in. Women crush dreams for safety and security. Men dream for self actualization. It is a rare woman who understands this. It is a rare man who figures it out. Most men just get pissed and quit. Women get bitchy and force the end.

Find a woman who will either hunt with you or go on quests with you. Very hard in today's world - I understand.

Also always remember that women are like buses. There will be another one along in a few minutes and the signs may be better and it may be cleaner, however, it could be dirtier and belch black smoke.

Took me until I was almost 30 to find that woman and that has been along time ago and we are still married and both happy in our choices.

Lastly most real dream women are rarely found in bars.

I think it was Washington Irving who said,

"Show me a shrew of a wife and I'll show you a nincompoop of a husband."

Are you done pissing on stuff?

I couldn't sleep and was thinking about writing this for a while -- so I did. Many a truth is spoken in jest, never-the-less, it is still jest. Relax noone is out to get you or the female species.

In fact, your responses hint at part of the problem men have with women.

SImilarly when a woman dumps her man at the advice of a close girlfriend only to find out that her close friend is now screwing him.

I’m SURE you will get bored with her.

Also, she WILL change once you say I do.

The saying goes something like this-
Marriages fail because a man marries a girl that he hopes will NEVER change and she marries a man she hopes WILL change.
