Every woman wants to change men and most men would rather just go into the next room and watch TV. Men don’t seem to be in this “change 1/2 the world, one remote-clicker at a time” mode.
The two main female complaints are: “Men don’t talk” and “Men don’t show emotions”.
What about talking? The average woman speaks around 21,000 words a day – the average man: about 12,000. So women, when you’re all fired up to machine gun words after work, please realize men may have used up all of theirs by about 3:30. They probably don’t have any words left.
And who said talking more is better? Many times fewer words are better if they’re the right words. Just ask the guys.
I know, I know…it’s to “relate” – emotional bonding. Oops – guys crash again. Showing emotions is a tricky thing for men – and the deck is stacked against us. Women don’t want men to show all of their emotions. Anger and fear aren’t best sellers – neither is sadness. So guys not only have to hack up feelings they’d rather keep to themselves, they’ve got to throw out the “right” feelings.
Who made up these rules – Oprah?
Why do guys always accept being changed?
Most psychologists would agree it’s based on that old joke most of us heard as kids:
Boy – “You don’t have one of these!”
Girl – “Yeh, but with one of these – I can have all of those I want”.
True? Hey, don’t ask me. I just used up all my words for today.
