GraceMae View Profile History	What Women Need to Know about Men Posted : 21 Jan, 2010 08:35 PM What do women need to know about you men? What turns a man off? Trying to change his behavior like demonstrating negative feelings? Not acknowledging what He does, or complaining about what he doesn�t do? What would you like to share for the ladies? ~ GraceMae Post Reply

I way over thought this one, dug deep and came up with some really complex thoughts that are extremely difficult to write out in a way some one else could understand. Maybe I really don't know what I'm talking about. Post Reply

View Profile History	What Women Need to Know about Men Posted : 24 Jan, 2010 12:13 PM I think a woman makes her husband a respectible person.Her god fearing ways makes the family look good.She condones a certain degree of respect. She can also do all the reverse of the above. Post Reply
View Profile History	What Women Need to Know about Men Posted : 24 Jan, 2010 02:12 PM By now i'm not so sure if it's just women being women, or people being people. We all have our weaknesses and imperfections, and not only that, they're all different. In this online dating thing I think it's really easy to lose sight of that and just see it as human resources and develop good enough or not good enough, what can you do for me type mentalities. I think if we could be happy with ourselves, and love other people the way Christ did there would be more friendly people and not as many angery, frustrated, detatched, afriad, or dismissive people. With love comes perfection. Not the other way around. Post Reply

'Time to dig in.' Or, 'Kill me.' Pretty much anything but Oh cool, this will be fun and make us a better couple. Our motivations and how we go about solving problems is different i think. I'll write more on that later, right now i have to get back to work. Post Reply
View Profile History	What Women Need to Know about Men Posted : 25 Jan, 2010 10:17 PM We are hyper competitive. Since we were little. Maybe it's nature. Maybe it's nurture. Who knows? All we know is we have to win. All of us have a little Mohammed Ali inside yelling at the top of his lungs believing with his whole heart and every fiber of his being "I CAN'T LOSE!" :boxing: This competitive mentality affects how we build trust and what we value. Winning is like a drug to us. As long as we have it we are in high heaven, and when we don't have it we are in withdrawl hell. Everything we do and think revolves around how to be a better competitor, and winner, which is where you lose us alot of times. If you don't appeal to that part of us, not to be hurtful, but you come off as dead weight and irrelevent. If you can know when and how to be a good teammate, coach, cheerleader, and fan, you will forever have our hearts and respect. I know it's selfish, but there's probably a selfish thing about you too and we would love to know what that is... maybe treated like a princess? :glow: Post Reply

If it's evident that we have a persistant injury that hasn't and isn't going away anytime soon, and it's evident we're in denial about that, then convince us that we need to. Otherwise don't worry.

View Profile History	What Women Need to Know about Men Posted : 27 Jan, 2010 04:33 PM Archimedes' joke reminded me of a theory that I observe on a daily basis with women. It just basically falls into your typical "familiarity breeds contempt" theory. And that theory allows me to always be able to tell what "stage" of love a woman is actually in with her particular suitor "du jour"..... It goes something like this..... When a woman is in the beginning stages of "lurrrrrve" with a guy.... she says.... "We know each other so well, we complete each other's sentences...." When she's finally becoming bored and ready to move on to something more exciting...... she says "He's always interrupting me...." Beginning stage example number two..... "He knows me better than I know myself...." Clearly the end..... "He's always telling me what to do..." Post Reply
GraceMae View Profile History	What Women Need to Know about Men Posted : 27 Jan, 2010 07:35 PM I have to say, you men have provided some very "valuable" information. You've put a different spin on things... :excited: My awareness has been heightened! Thank you for telling the truth about how you feel. :waving: ~ GraceMae Post Reply
View Profile History	What Women Need to Know about Men Posted : 27 Jan, 2010 10:11 PM Okay...now that I got 'the joke' out of the way.... I'm going to address the more serious nature of this issue. Because, GraceMae, whether you know it or not, the question you actually ask is one that men DON'T get actually asked all that often. Because, if you ask MOST men out there these days, they'll tell you that they believe most women out there really could care LESS about what they should know about men... And that is probably the BIGGEST gripe men now have. The only thing that men are convinced that women want to know about them, is 'what is the best way for me to get into his head so I can 'train' him to finally become MORE LIKE A WOMAN'..... And that is the REAL truth. To explain that thought further...... For the last forty years, we've been raised in a culture whose foundations are firmly planted now in 'feminism'. It would have been a noble cause IF the real cause was to assure 'equality' between the sexes. The unfortunate truth of it was that the movement was specifically designed to indoctrinate MAN HATING. Women are not trained nowadays to ACCEPT "maleness". Women are trained at a very early age now to HATE all forms of maleness. Instead of being trained to accept maleness as a "compliment" to the woman.... a woman is trained to now be 'threatened' by it, and then emasculate it...... A woman is now convinced that 'she alone' somehow holds the mystical card to 'retrain' him..... It would be "acceptable" in some regards..... provided that the woman doing the training is of SOUND MIND herself. But the reality nowadays is that FEW are actually of sound mind due to the incessant indoctrinations they have received over the last forty years... These indoctrinations have led to confused and distorted views of what EITHER sex really is.... or what they really SHOULD be. Making matters worse..... we now live in a world that HATES the 'family unit'. By "family unit", I mean, one that actually has a FATHER in it. This was ALSO brought on by the same movement. "Single momhood" is now CELEBRATED and encouraged.... with a household DEVOID of a father... (hmmm....strangely enough...it seems to have infiltrated even the Christian world.....). While SOME might try to offer the excuse that men have been 'absentee' in their parental responsibilities....I will contend that they were pushed OUT due to a "Murphy Brown" brainwashing of sorts...... Do yourself a favor, and try an experiment one day this or next week........ Turn on the TV in the morning and then just WATCH the whole day until you go to bed..... and then take some notes and 'counts'...... How many commercials do you see where a "stupid man" can't figure out something and the woman suddenly SOLVES IT ALL?? How many 'sitcoms' are on at night that portray a fat, loud, stupid, obnoxious man who just so happens to have a beautiful, skinny wife who always crosses her arms, looks at him with a scowl, and then CORRECTS him all the time?? hmmm....I can give a few right off the top of my head... The World According to Jim.... King of Queens.... Family Guy... The Simpsons... Everybody Loves Raymond.... There are plenty more though. Do you EVER now see programs where the man of the house is SMART?? RESPONSIBLE?? DOES THE RIGHT THING?? If we were to believe Hollywood.... the last man to be that was Mr. Huxtable in the Cosby Show. The first irony in this situation is..... I personally don't know ONE MAN in my life who even remotely acts like men are portrayed on tv shows or commercials..... NOT ONE. All the men I know are very upstanding men who constantly strive to be good men..dedicated to family....and always trying to do the right thing. All of them are extremely smart.... There isn't one person that I know of that will disagree with the logic that things like "video games", "the internet" and "rap music" with explicit and/or violent lyrics INFLUENCES the minds of children and teens who do not get proper intervention and correction from their parents....yes??? Why wouldn't logic suggest then that the "perception" of one gender or the other is directly influenced by the constant barrage of such types mediums then as well?? In other words..... how women perceive men now is NOT the direct result of how men actually ACT or ARE..... rather.... their perception of men has been MANIPULATED by what has been shoved down the throats of women by very clever MARKETING types in both Hollywood AND Madison Avenue..... who are both extremely rooted in VERY liberal mindsets brought on by the feminista movement forty years ago. Are there some men that act like idiots? Well.... yeah. But... MOST men do not. So to actually get back to your original question..... The first thing women need to know about men is this....... It is POINTLESS to try to convince any woman what she would need to know about men....UNTIL.... she has been completely "deprogrammed" from what poison she has been fed about men in general during these last two generations. It is a lesson in futility to try to tell a woman any "particulars" about men because, after we've told a woman.... she usually goes to see if what we told her is 'correct'... Sadly though... the first person she usually goes to is.....wait for it.....wait for it.... ANOTHER WOMAN. And that woman will completely try to convince the other woman that what we said was A LIE. Or worse... she'll try to convince the woman that what we told her was "insignificant"........ I'll probably contribute "particulars" later as to what women need to know about men.... maybe... we'll see... The first thing I want to do though is direct anybody who actually READ this whole thing to a particular video series by TD Jakes.... you can find it on youtube.com. Once there, look for his series called "He-motions" and WATCH the whole thing...... I think it's broken down into ten parts. It's a MUST WATCH for ANY woman who is TRULY sincere about wanting to know about and hopefully LOVE a man in the way he needs to be loved. It's starting to get a little tiring knowing that the only time a woman seems to REALLY want to know anything about a man.... is if it only benefits HER in the end...... Peace.... more later...
