And thats cool. But that really isnt how most marriages today are, which is why half of them end in divorce within 5 years. Women with no respect for their men, men with no respect for their women, and both with no respect for themselves. This isnt something I see in some marriages, its what I see in the majority of them. But it seems the women of my generation especially, are all about me me me. I dont put up with that.

And if theres one thing I never wanna go through, its a divorce! Especially if children are involved.

Fuckin briilant (and spot on) post.

I'd just like to add: nice & respectful does NOT have to equate spineless. Spinelessness is a seriously unattractive trait in a man.

This is most likely something we picked up through media, sitcoms, etc and it has slowly become prevalent as the majority mentality. The notion that "real men cry" or that it is always ok to show your emotions, millions and millions of people on extremely powerful narcotics prescribed by doctors for depression, or self-esteem issues, or itchy vaginas...or whatever the fuck these assholes think is wrong with them.

So not only are we becoming weaker and flabbier instead of stronger and more efficient...we're also becoming mentally weaker and losing any type of mental fortitude. Now, everyone is offended by everything, lawsuits fly around, people evolve into something less than genuine. I think guys like Apoc and possibly Tigger (though his reading comprehension skills are certainly questionable) understand this to one extend or another and that is why we're so vocal in opposition to the idea of the "Sensitive Man."

Nobody is suggesting that we should be sociopaths, or that a complete void of emotional capacity would necessarily make us a better society. But what we have and what we are heading toward is a people that are guided by and operate chiefly on emotion. We are losing qualities that men need in order to survive and prosper and falling into the hands of the powers that be that want to coddle us, want us to believe in Dr. Phil and absolutely want us to be pussies...because pussies don't fight back.

Heard a story the other day about a grown man who heard a noise on his second story when he was home alone and called the fucking police. It is sad, it is pathetic, and it will have dire consequences down the road when coupled with some other societal problems that will be unaddressed.

So men, treat your women good, buy them shiny things and always respect them and their opinions cause they're capable of a different and valuable type of thought process that we can't match. BUT, don't fucking cry in front of them, don't let them disrespect you and don't do shit a man wouldn't do. What some would call evolution and progress in the form of EMO men, I call the exact opposite.

You are the world's most fierce predator, not even a grizzly has a chance against man....go out and fucking act like it.

Oh shit I have you guys for "intellectual stimulation" don't I?

Sex-young bimbos

Companionship-my dog

Intellectual Stimulation-Two Wheel Fix

Entertainment-'06 GSXR1000 and a plethora of electronic gadgets

I'm covered! I don't believe in putting all my eggs in one basket and making someone "my everything".

My problem is I can't tolerate Bimbos long enough to have sex with them. Tape their mouth shut and we are good to go, unconscious would work too.

True...it can be a challenge.

The other thing is that most of these people will tell you that their marriage is perfect and their SO is amazing, respectful, caring, whatever until bang it's all over and the truth comes out! I find it impossible to believe that at no time during previous relationships, they weren't spouting off about how perfect that man/woman was. I've done it personally. It might take 6 months, a year, or even 20 years but one day they'll wake up and either they are sick of their SO or their SO is sick of them. It's only a matter of time after that. Somebody is bound to "outgrow" somebody eventually! "I still love you but I'm not IN LOVE with you...", "I just think that our lives are going in different directions...", "I'd rather bang somebody that isn't old and fat...", etc. Then that person will be the "bitch that used me and fucked me over" or the "asshole that treated me like shit"...

I am too much of a geek to be a proper bimbo and definitely can't get by on looks alone.

The things I need most from a man are an ability to put up with me and put me in my place!

Come, come now...that's not all you need from a man.
