There are reasons my marriage is suffering and I'm quite ok with not being everyones cup of tea. Everyone is different right? At least that's what I'm learning here. I seemed to have inadvertently stepped on some toes. 49er, it's rude of you to make snap judgements though. You don't know anything about me.

The only thing you can be sure of, is that yesterday was a particularly bad day for me and it was here that I chose to unleash. It probably wasn't the smartest, but we live and learn right? I certainly didn't mean to offend anyone.

I agree that's a touch strong to say the least

Yes it is natural for men to be the "hunters". Let's look back to the beginning days. Our society has jacked a lot of this up but yes if men feel comfortable it should be natural. A lot of women have abused this with the whole independent women thing so of course some men have just shut if off entirely.

If men are naturally hunters then it would not matter what goes on in society. It's funny how these pop-evolution fanatics drone on about the natural world but probably couldn't survive the harshness of the natural, uncivilized world.

Men have more testosterone and that influences how they behave. That's nature. Then there is how they were raised and there own personality, that is nurture.

Everyone is a combo of stuff, and we shoot off in all directions.

I like more confident/aggressive type males, that doesn't mean anyone should change, or I dislike more passive men. I just dated the kind I liked. As should everyone else.

Women need to do the work. Men are scared to pursue.

Scared or demotivated? Sounds like the latter might actually be the case.

This has been stuck in my head for quite a while.

Since women, by nature, possess a more loving disposition; are more preoccupied with thoughts of love and relationships; and because love/relationships are more essential to their happiness, it seems logical that they would be the pursuers, although not in the masculine sense.

Modern, patriarchal cultures/religions have undoubtedly altered that. Was ancient Ukraine, by chance, more of a gender-balanced or perhaps matriarchal society?

He's a sub, cuckold him. That's what he wants.
