well when you engage in emotional-irrational thinking, by definition you're not going to be engaging in logical judgment or decisionmkaing

You should care. No slut is going to meet you and suddenly turn into wife material. She is going to continue her slutty ways, bro.

i tend to disagree with some of what you said. i think we want a man who cares enough to defend us but is a companion enough to know when we can fight our own fight and when we definitely will need call in some back up.

i agree though with what you said about how we want contradicting things.

BUT think about it like this...they aren't "opposite"
we just want enough of the kindness, sensitivity, thoughtfulness in combination with the list of masculine qualities you mentioned.

i'd say more accurately that women are looking for a man who is strong and sensitive... why does he have to be only one? why can't there be healthy amounts of each?

just food for thought.

Nah, you're just around the wrong ones. Pretentious, high maintenance chicks are to be avoided but unfortunate for most guys, it's what they are attracted to.

You just want it all, and you want it now. And he needs to make enough money to support you in a good lifestyle, but he damn well better not work too many hours and neglect you, and he should understand that you want a glorious cubicle career too, so he'd better be willing to sacrifice some of his career for yours.

you're not wrong, but implementing that in reality is difficult b/c one party gets to decide when the other needs to be sensitive or strong

i know you know that many girls are off their fricking rocker and will do irrational things like pick fights for attention

if we allow too much grey area when thinking about the roles/expectations of a relationship, you're just allowing a woman to call a man insensitive anytime he doesn't do what she wants and then she gets to call him a pussy anything he does do what she wants. it's a lose-lose so men are opting out of those paradigms

I have found a few, but after my last shite show of a relationship, I'm not willing to date someone who I don't already know or I cannot find out about through trusted friends. In the meantime, I am gonna be nailing the younger, better looking girls

That's why I said that guys who can do both will always win. The problem is that many women assume that all aggressive qualities are bad. They try to rid men of those qualities, train them if you will, and then wonder why they're not attracted to their man anymore. That's because you changed him! You were attracted to him the way he was and you molded him into what you thought you wanted when he already was what you really desired. Some women need to accept the fact that really do like that goofy oaf they fell in love with (hint, that's why they fell for him in the first place) even if that's not socially acceptable.

i don't mean it like that, i guess....
i just meant balanced. guys act like it's such an inconvenience to be a well-balanced individual who doesn't suppress some deep-seeded social construct about what it means to be a "man."

I've noticed that a lot of the profiles I see from women stress that they love the outdoors. Complete with several pictures of them "hunting". You would think they were fricking Survivorman from reading this stuff. But they probably do as many outdoorsy things as the average girl but know that guys like hunting. Not saying that some of them aren't genuine... but certainly not all of them since that is a good chunk of the profiles I see.


I lol'd. I can't tell you how many women have said they're outdoors y in their profiles, and then you find out they have never camped a day in their life.

You just described me. I tell females all the time, I'm Clark Kent until Superman is needed. The bad part is, females tend to forget they're one and the same person. Don't mistake kindness for weakness.

yep. Women want a man who will be a fricking man, generally. If you are a dude who wants to take charge, you will find a woman who likes to be with a man who takes control. Don't try to pin the "emasculation of men" on all women. It's kind of a copout IMO.

i'm just saying...

you can appreciate the pros and cons about someone... but if you really love your so then you should be more than willing to do things to improve yourself as a person. i'm trying every day to improve myself.

some days are successful, and some are not.

you're still doing it.

you don't want a vapid slut, but when someone you can't pigeonhole challenges what you think, the labels and insults start flying. you continue to prove that you and your red pill bros have no real unification or consistency other than always contradicting yourselves.

In an optimistic world, at least 90% of people 20-24 wouldn't be married. Not sure why the hell they decided that number either.
