What do men want anyway?

I hear ladies talking all the time about how their men are never satisfied. When you stay home, cook, clean and care for the kids they want a single working girl. When you are single, working, and like to travel, then they want someone that stays home. When your relationship isn't as sexual as you would like and you try to discuss this with a man they get mad, go talk to some other woman and end up having sex with her. (I'm not going to share my views on the guys that go out and solicit prostitutes.) My favorite is that guy that dates the over-weight woman and gets mad because she's over-weight. When she leaves him or he leaves her than he finds another over-weight woman instead of trying to find someone fit and compatible. Now I ask you, do men make any sense? lol

 

Some do. I like to think I do. I was recently engaged, and it started off well. We lived together and everything. She used to love to cook, clean, work out, etc. then it all stopped. I never complained once, I just started doing all the chores, cooking, etc. She also gained weight, and I still always told her she looked beautiful, and was always very easily turned on by her.
So anyway, she has left me now. I think it was just that she wasnt ready to settle down, because our relationship was quite good, as was our sex life.
So anyway, now I wonder, ... whats the point? Should I have continued to do all those things, and overlook her weight gain? Or should I have bitched and complained and made her lose weight, and do all the chores? I now think I did the wrong thing.

My point is, Girls may be causing this themselves. You treat them like queens, and they dump on you. You treat them like $hit and they worship you.
I have always been the "nice guy", and have always been crapped on by girls in the end. I often just wish I had it in me to be the "bad guy" so maby I could get some respect!

 

what a sexist thread. is this more man hatred by pmsing feminists?

 

I would say that bitching about her weight gain isnt something to be taken mean... whats wrong with wanting your lover to stay healthy?
Women have their problems too... how many women out there go for the usual stupid 'thugged-out' ruff ryda men (white suburbian gangsters) only to get cheated on them and then complain...

Maybe you should have your pants hanging off your ass and talk like a gangsta to get some bitches. You could hold th em in your ghetto-arms and make them feel secure.

Oops I said bitches, im being a sexist again.

 

no youre wrong youre a nice guy whos not going after nice girls-find someone as equally nice as you.

 

Of course we dont make any sense. We're MEN we dont HAVE to make sense! If you think everything women want is easy for us to understand... LOL.

I cant speak for all men but I am fairly easy to please, though I dont know if my wife would agree with me!!! I only require four basic needs

1. I need to "get a little" every once in a while.
2. I need her to be able to cook as well as I do, well at least close. Not that she has to cook all the time, but when she does it's nice that the house is in no danger of burning down.
3. I need someone that can carry on a decent conversation.
4. I need someone that will make me feel like I am #1 every once in awhile.

Is that too much to ask?

 

The faults of women are many,
But men, we have just two.
Just everything we say
And everything we do.

 

Now that I got that out of my system;

I think the problem is that "What do men want" cannot be answered.
Not only does it vary from man to man, but what a man wants changes almost randomly, without notice.

I think that USNavyDeadHead came closest with "I need someone that will make me feel like I am #1 every once in awhile."

I can guess that you aren't a sexist by the fact that you used pms and feminists to discribe the thread. I prefer opinionated and snap judger. I wasn't having pms when I wrote the thread. Thanks for your input and concern about my cycle.

I for one know that all men aren't bad. I just listed some of the bad behavior that is shown by the ones that are. (I wouldn't expect you to answer for all of them and maybe none of them but if you could pleas do. )

 

surely you can understand i am talking a bout the typical & stereotypical man-hating feminist.. cuz the post was rather quite the generalization of all men... and the only reason i pretend to be a sexist is because well... i do it for the chicks!

 

Right now? For her to answer the phone when I call her - nothing more. I have a long distance relationship with the most wonderful woman, but we do have very different schedules. Since we began dating, I'm guessing that 1 out of every 50 calls I make to her, no matter what time of day it is, results in me not hearing her voice outside of her voicemail.

She lives on the West Coast, I live on the East Coast, and we both have very busy lives so its hard. Its very very hard. I just know that no matter what the time of day I call, I get her voice mail.

What I want more than anything else is to call her right now and for her to answer the phone - nothing more.

 

Those are hard relationships. I'm glad yours is working.

 

Funny. This post is stereotyping men in a way no better than the American Women post's stereotyping of women.

"Ooh, what do these men want? I try to be type A but some men like type B, I try to be type B but some men like type A... Oh, the world is ever so confusing!"

Guess what, honey. "Men" is not one person. Different men want different women. If you want to stay at home and cook, find a man who likes that. If you want to have a career, find a man who likes that! Is the fact that not all men are identical so difficult to grasp?

 

I'm glad to see the menimists at work!


It took me a very long time to even look at this thread because the title just turns me off. I hate generalizations and stereotypes with all my heart.

Well I'm glad you read it and my comments to the effect that this is not a gerneralization but a realization that there are some people like this. I just wanted to know why and find some stuff out about men of all walks.

 

Yeah I did read it and I realized what you were trying to say, but I stayed away because the title turned me off.

I just brought this to the next page just in case people didn't get where I was coming from but wanted to know. Like I said I know that generalization of men is wrong; however, relization of some types of men from the norm is cool. (I'm trying to learn what makes the ones that are like the ones I discribed, tick.) I'm a faster learner, good listener, and I know that they exsist. I also know there are lots of good men and that's why I didn't write: What do all men want? I also described the disturbing behavior that makes me scratch my head. (You'll noticed that I linked the bad behavior in different catorgories as well.)

 

What do men want?


What do women want? I suspect they aren't that different, it's just finding two individuals who's wants and needs match one anothers is the problem.

 

come on lets all be real here men want sex, if you give it to them all in relationship land is wonderful if they dont then theyre dicks to you. youre just lucky if as a woman you find someone you want to have sex all the time with too.
