Yup, there's no such thing as generalizations, like I'm sure most women don't like shopping and talking on cell phones or listening to ipods while in public

I don’t think gay people have anything to do with it because of their gayness....


but I do think we have a prevailing culture that wants men to be more like women. More "in touch" and blah blah blah and all that.

Boys are supposed to be allowed to cry. we are supposed to talk about "feelings" and junk.

Movies and TV show men as either womanized and cleaned up or as buffoons. It isn’t a “gay thing” it is a liberal feminist hollywierd thing.

And if you ask me it’s stupid. I get “communicate”. In fact I do. Probably better than most men because I have several sisters and no brothers so I was raised with girls. But the other side of that is women need to know that it is perfectly ok to just BE QUIET! This is a two way street. While you want “communicate” sometimes what we hear is talkytalk. Talkytalk is not “communicate”. It’s yap yap.

Women! Listen closely to this. It might save your marriage. If you are “communicating” with us men and we get a glazed look in our eyes…. SHUT UP. Just walk away and come back later. I promise your man will eventually want to communicate with you but just not right then.

On boys crying. If my boys are hurt, and have a reason to cry, its allowed. If it is just some silly thing that girls cry about, I tell them to stop it up. They don’t have a reason to cry and crying for no reason is done in Massachusetts NOT Texas. We are real men in Texas! LOL!

When you see a deer
You see Bambi
And I see antlers up on the wall
When you see a lake
You think picnics
And I see a large mouth up under that log
You’re probably thinking that you’re gonna change me
In some ways well, maybe you might
Scrub me down dress me up
But no matter what
Remember I’m still a guy

When you see a priceless French painting
I see a drunk naked girl
You think that riding a wild bull sounds crazy
And I’d like to give it a whirl
Love makes a man do some things he ain’t proud of
And in a weak moment I might walk your sissy dog
Hold your purse at the mall
But remember I’m still a guy

And I’ll pour out my heart
Hold your hand in the car
Write a love song that makes you cry
Then turn right around
Knock some jerk to the ground
‘Cause he copped a feel as you walked by

I can hear you now talking to your friends
Saying yeah girls he’s come a long way
From dragging his knuckles and carrying a club
And building a fire in a cave
But when you say a backrub means only a backrub
Then you swat my hand when I try
Well now what can I say at the end of the day
Honey, I’m still a guy

And I’ll pour out my heart
Hold your hand in the car
Write a love song that makes you cry
Then turn right around
Knock some jerk to the ground
‘Cause he copped a feel as you walked by

These days there’s dudes getting facials
Manicured waxed and botoxed
But with deep spray on tans and creamy lotioney hands
You can’t grip a tackle box
With all of these men lining up to get neutered
It’s hip now to be feminized I don’t highlight my hair
I’ve still got a pair
Yeah, honey I’m still a guy

My eyebrows ain’t plucked
Theres a gun in my truck
Thank God I’m still a guy

I would also like to point out that I have utter scene control.

I have given my wife complete control of my scene!

I have lived with women for a very long time. They can "feminimize" with me all they want: day, night, in the car or on the bike. I'll do the best I can and they know it.

As far as my "inner man" is concerned we keep him tightly wrapped for very good reason. He loved Vietnam.

This is a two way street. You got that right...I really glaze over listening to some man describe a golf event, a football play, or how he paints a wall....



"""While you want “communicate” sometimes what we hear is talkytalk. Talkytalk is not “communicate”. It’s yap yap.""


Here's an example: men assembling: ""Hey! How 'bout dem Vikes!? Got me a big ol bass, 20 pounder on a blah, blah, blah, hey that Tiger Woods ..how about that , ya, my picks on fantasy football, blah blah, Man , ain't that one great lawn mower! Nuttin' runs like a Deere yuck yuck! Talkytalk yap yap...."
