I honestly don’t mean this as degrading to women, but have you ever seen a gal changing the tire on the side of a freeway? They just wont do it. They will stand there and try to look pretty or hopeless or what ever, hoping a Man comes by and bails them out before they will take care of the situation themselves.

Hey!!!! Have you been spying on me, bub? ;^)

Absolutely, that is so true! And tender-hearted men almost always show up to help. On the flip side, that "woman's touch" in a home, in ways of cleanliness, tidiness, loving care, TLC, and maybe a home-made apple pie or home-cooked meal made with affection, is something men aren't hard-wired to provide for themselves, and they get depressed and lonely and bitter without them. Married men live longer for a reason.

So for all the times kind, tender-hearted men have helped me out ... I hope I have equally provided them with a little (non-physical!!!) love and psycholgical female affection and admiration, a good housecleaning, a warm meal, a kind word, a sympathetic ear. We have our different jobs to do and I want you to know how much I appreciate you guys out there who come to our rescue ... and I pray that when you're in need, a kind woman will come to yours.

Its a good give and take.
