Men! Men are dogs! Men are all the same! If I had a thousand shillings for every time I heard such statements my retirement would be sorted. With all the man haters out there we, men, should be listed under the endangered species of the world.
With even the most innocent of intentions (I can almost hear the sneers) women view you with suspicion waiting for the claws to show through the sheep’s clothing.
But with all the derision and vitriolic statements hurled at men you wonder why they spend so much of their energy on men. After all we are just dogs. Could it be that down in their hearts they know they cannot do without men? And since they cannot spent time with them in a relationship then they may at well spent time pulling them down. For whatever reason men and women are linked. Man! Can’t live with them, can’t live without them.
Men, while the source of pain, are not the reason for all of it. Women too are to blame. We live in a century where woman are as equal as men (at least that is what we are led to believe).women too have contributed to scenarios in which hurt is the end result.
Modern ladies can climb to the top of the ladder and shatter the glass ceiling. They are CEOs, managers, truck drivers and are in most fields today. But they all have one universal weakness. They sometimes look to men for their sense of worth. So much is tied to what he says and does that the female ceases to function on her own.
However there are those that are so independent to a fault. Do not get me wrong I believe in independence. Generally men do not look for toughness in a woman but femininity, a damsel in distress) but ask any man willing to bear the brunt of all the independent women and he will confirm this. If u can function on your own you don’t need men. If you want companionship without a man, get a cat.
Then there are those lose/lose situations we are put into. It is like a death match. Whichever tactics you apply you will end up bleeding and in pain. And if you happen to be dating one of those independent, driven, tomboyish types the pain and bleeding may be literal. “do I look fat?” or “how do I look in this dress?”. These are questions men dread because despite the recent lecture on honesty he received, he knows this is one of those times lying like the devil is a virtue. You probably had an opinion when you wore the dress, please be confident in your perceptiveness and leave the men out of it.
A strength and weakness! This is one of the most confusing. a friend of mine Recently complained that her guy was not giving her enough attention. I reminded her that she complained of the opposite a few days ago, he was “smothering” her. A few days later…well let’s just say she was left saying, you guessed it, MEN!
Men will never be able to read minds. Woman should learn that. Hint, strong hints, obvious hints or any other hints for that matter will not work. Simple come out and say it. Save us the nerve wracking ordeal of guessing. We are made that way.
It would also help if you thought deeply about who you are and what you want. Decide too what your value as a woman is and stop looking for saviors in men. Oh remember for every man out there is a woman who fell for him. It takes two.
