As always people, I was listening to two friends talk about how their wives read these articles in these womens magazines that say they can tell you what every man wants in bed, or what they want to here, or what they like to eat, and I gotta say that I don't understand why these people publish this nonsense. To prove a point I had a buddy bring in all his wifes very popular womens magazines that will remain nameless in this article as I don't want to pay royalties. We looked through them for the mens articles and read them and after reading them and asking other friends about the particular topics, they were wrong and rediculous. I don't know if they just write that stuff on the front just to sell the mag or if they actually think they know what they are talking about but let me let you ladies on a little insight into what is really going on when you test this knowledge you get from these magazines on us.
First off, if you see on the front of a magazines the 10 things he wants you to do in bed, it's probably not all true because there isn't 10 things a guy is thinking of if he thinks he's going to get that far. I hate to diappoint you but it's not that diffucult. It's only one thing and it's not as romantic as you'd like it to be. You have to keep in mind that FOR THE MOST PART(I made that bold so you wouldn't say well my man ain't like that or I ain't like that, this is for the most part and this won't apply to everyone), women are emotional creature. Almost everything women do is from one of two things which are habit or emotions. Men work more on logic and instinct which is where most of our fights come from. You know what I mean ladies, you come in with a problem and all you want is some one to hear how you feel but he just wants to fix the problem, that's exactly what I'm talking about. Second thing they publish that drives me nuts is when they say they can tell you what he wants to hear. Guys arent typicaly as self conscious as women. I'll give you an example, when is the last time a guy said to any woman "Why don't you tell me I'm handsome anymore?" It doesn't happen. Conversations between two guys are so easy, there are not really any details and there are almost never any feelings. I don't think this is a good or bad thing but it definately isn't complicated. For example, One guy says what did you do today and the friends answer could be nothing, and that's it they need a new topic. You take either one of those guys and his girlfriend or wife says what did you do today and he says nothing, that's not good enough, she'll typically say what do you mean nothing? You couldn't have done nothing all day, did you go anywhere, did you call anyone? They want details.
Basicaly what I'm saying ladies is, men don't want much at all. We know for the most part that we don't understand women which is why I think every guy needs one because I know my wife spends most of the time explaing other women and other peoples problems to me because all I can think of is possible solutions. We don't expect you to understand us because we know that some of the stuff we do is so simple, disgusting, or stupid that explaining it would just seem immature, stupid, or have you thinking what was I thinking when I picked you.
Men and women are completely different and within men and women, all men are not the same and all women are not the same. That being said, why would you take advice on all men by something that was written by either one man or not even a man, it could have been a woman? That's something to think about.
After reading this I must explain that I'm not a sexist in anyway. These are my observations of men and women that I know or that I'm around and in no way do I think everyone fits into this article. I just want everyone to think about things before they put to much stock in an article, or a book, or something a friend says because they could be sending you down a rocky path blind. That being said, my last bit of advice is for both men and women and that's to enjoy the companion ship that a relationship brings and never focus on any one specific thing because nobody is perfect.

Takeaways
  • All men are different in some way
  • All women are different in some way
  • Men and women are different in most ways
