Men are biggest idiots. You give them what they ask for and the first opportunity they get they cheat on you. They like change and they like the attention. Sometimes they want to look cool in front of their friends and say stuff like, oh yeah I nailed her. They think they are funny, but they don't know how stupid that is. \nGuys like nasty girls. They use them for pleasure. They marry good girls b/c they can stay home and take care of the kids while they screw around. \nWhen guys are in a relationship or a marriage for a while, their wive don't pay attention to them like they use to at the beginning of their relationship. I think it is women fault that their men cheat on them. If they would pay attention just a little to their men everything would be different. \nThere are many different reasons why men cheat on women. We don't understand them and they don't understand us but we can't live without each other. :)

Yes, I do! And I'm lucky enough to have a man like that! It's the younger women out there that put up with ' Mr. Wrong'. Most women over the age of 30 are tired of dealing with immature, ill-mannered men. They'll hold out for a decent man. Remember the saying..." young & stupid....."

yes is an easy answer. \nthe bad bit... men are or can be total brats. like women, petty, posessive and unthinking, so we hit out, wrong or right, we can hurt so we do. (not just men).or we pick up the phone expecting to hear you saying to another boyfriend Hi Mick - or we have at least another girl we hope we can connect with.[not my style]\n \nthe good bit, we are also a bit stupid (not much) so some times we need to try to fix things. But we are stupid, so we don't phone and say- "hey I'm studid can we fix things?"  We don't think- we do silly things. we miss your voice, we wish things worked out better, we wish you would smile, and when you pick up the phone you would say- take me to the pub.\nman or woman, we are complicated, complex and you must have a better insight to his style than anyone here.\nIs this guy a total nut or is there hope? \nyour call.

Men gradually grow up.  My husband is more mature now then he was when I met him, but he still has a long way to go. Enjoy their antics and just laugh at him and say to yourself I am so glad I have my girl best friends.

most guys are, unfortunately.\nAsk him for some more time together and see what he says. Either that, or when he breaks out his video games, start reading that book you are working on or painting or whatever it is YOU like to do.

This is something I have been asking myself for a long time. \n\nEverything you said and more is absolutely correct. The thing that bothers me the most is: men know this. And not only do men know this, they for some crazy reason get upset when the subject comes up. \n\nI mean if you know that women are considered less in this society and you know that women make less for the same jobs and you know that women still don't have equal rights, then why in the hell do you get upset when asked about it? As though, someone were trying to take something from you or something. I just don't get that at all.\n\nHere is an example that my sister experienced a few years ago: she went through a divorce. My mother's house was in her name and my mother sold the house so my sister had to file the paperwork. My sister's exhusband had to sign off on the paperwork even though his name was nowhere on the deed or financing, etc... He blackmailed 5 grand out of her over that for something he never paid a penny on. \n\nNow get this... we were told that in my state, NC, ONLY the MAN has that right. If he had been the one selling a house where her name was not on the deed etc... then he would not have had to get her to sign off on it.\n\nIn today's times, the women work all day too just like the man but then we come home, cook dinner, make sure the kid's homework is done, do the dishes, straighten up the house, bath the kids, etc... While the husband is usually either sitting on the couch watching sitcoms, playing on the computer, or maybe out tinkering with his car in the garage.\n\nAnd men STILL get upset when you bring this stuff up. I personally think the male brain is what is wrong with this world. They truly feel they are 'entitled' to be treated better than women just because they are men... \n\nThe world would be a much better place if we got rid of all the male leaders of this planet. We wouldn't have all this 'cock' fighting over stupid crap.\n\nFunny how when you start talking about 'equality' ppl start calling you a socialist. Also, there have been many many studies of the hostility a woman has to go through in professional male dominated areas. IE, my sister is a mechanical engineer and you would be amazed at the crap she has to tolerate.

Wow someone sounds positively angry with the guys......some men are this way but many are not....it sounds like you have been hurt ....if so you need to not let this turn you into a bitter, and twisted person try to get past it. Good luck.

Ew...I think he's just a big cheese. Who really says things like that without underlying meanings? He's probably just trying to get laid. And I agree with the lady who posted first, I am kind of offended that that is how he described the work we do. My marriage is more like a  partnership where we share all of the responsibilities whether it be child-rearing, house-cleaning, or working. I don't like being described as someone whp has the dinner on the table by five o'clock and has the kids bathed so my husband doesn't have to do a thing to help. That's just ridiculous.

That may be his sense of humor.  Something he thinks he is expected to do around "the guys".  There is a stigma around marriage that it should be miserable.  Your hubby may be one of those who wants to fit in so he subscribes to the stereotypes people hold of him and his life.  (I could be wrong)\n\nIn private I would tell him that what he said really bothered you.  Ask him if he really feels that way or if he was just trying to be funny.  Inform (gently not confrontationaly) that it wasn't funny and jokes as such really hurt you, especially around other people.  If he really feels that way it may be time for some marriage counseling.

No. He just wnts some ass. Trust me. I'm a guy, and even though I don't act upon what my head says (not always a good thing) I know how other guys think. So do yourself a favor and just get someone else who'll be there for you. Not your puss...

Simply put because they are BONEHEADS!!!!!!\nFor real though because it's in the history of men. And because they don't understand the word "comittment" which in turns makes me want to say " Screw Them All"!!!!!!!! On all real just talk to him and asked him why?\nThen in return you can come back and explain to all us females what's their problem is.

I don't. I want my husband to be large and in charge. My husband will be the king of his castle, and a hush king is not a good king. I think men have been brainwashed into believing that they are supposed to be tender. I want my man to be strong,  both physically and emotionally. I want him to say what he wants, because how else will I know so I can make him happy? I want my husband to taech my boys to hunt and fish and split wood and work hard. I hate the kind of men you're talking about. I think they're whipped, and I also think that that's wrong. Period. Men should be in charge.

western men are so wierd (you are definitely one)....how can a man accept the fact that his wife cheats on him ? accept, feels sad and even tries to get her back...this is way beyond me !!!!! God.....

Goodness no.  I think that sometimes men DON'T WANT women to be as smart as they are - but I'm not going to act stupid for anybody.  I WILL acknowledge when my man does or says something smart - but I won't pretend to be less intelligent than I am.  That would be too hard.
