YUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why on EARTH would I (or any non-controlling, SANE woman) want a man to act like THAT?! If I wanted to live with someone who was vulnerable, eager to show weakness and emoting all over the place, I'd move in with a GAY guy or another WOMAN!!!!

Nope, sorry, but I like my men to make me feel like they've got the world under control; I like a bit of swagger; I want to feel safe around them, not worried that they're going to cry or emote all over me. In short, I don't want my man acting like a hairy, flat-chested WOMAN!
I'm glad ONE woman at least gets it.

The article, for the most part, was a load of horse manure.

Yep, for almost 6 years to a woman who is routinely propositioned by suckers with too little too late.

Hi Dorrans,

I agree its the opposite. A woman wants to be with a man other woman want. In any mating ritual in the animal world the male peacocks to display his ego not suppress it. Women are frequently sententious about how everyone is a winner and they discourage open competition among their children and how who wins doesn't matter. Then they date the winners.

Hi gwynedd1..lol,


I disagree, in that, NOT ALL women are like this. In the animal kingdom it's just more cutthroat and critical to find the best mate but humans are on a totally different scale.

Some women GOT MONEY and they are looking for just sex.

Some women GOT MONEY, and SEX (they are married) but they are looking for romance because they don't get the romance from their own man.

Some women have nothing but they are looking for EVERYTHING.

So my point is, it's not just black and white like you paint it out to be. IMO, guys use that excuse because they are too scared or shy to meet women on their own, others use that excuse to just put women down as if they are all gold diggers.

Come on, we all know guys judge women on looks alone so it's only right for females to look just as judgmental at our bank statements.

Yeah. If she's spending way too much, quit blaming her and start working harder, demand a raise (she picked you for your confidence) and get a second job!

Of course logic is a reason marriages fail for men...once they see how illogical it is to even get married these days.
This is a rapidly developing trend. Given that the drop in real estate prices have taken away the easy options from men, I expect another major jump in those remaining single. This and a lot more bankruptcy and jail time for men who can't keep up with the alimony and c/s.
