Default Men, I want the ugly truth from you.

You'er anonymous on here, and nobody's gonna scream at you for saying it.

So give us some of the ugliest truths about what women don't/should know about men.

This isn't meant to make men look bad. There are things, some things women just dont know about men. What do you wish women knew about you, that would make relationships easier?

a. "yes", we noticed that ****ty woman but we think she's hot.

b. "yes", those jeans do make your butt look big (but it's kinda hot).

c. "yes", if you died, we'd find someone else. We might even find someone interesting at the funeral home.

d. we truly don't care which curtains you pick out.

e. we don't hear 80% of what you say. Pretending to listen is our plan to get you in the sack.

f. We're embarrassingly simple to maintain. Keep us fed and laid and don't try to talk to us when the TVs on. Stroke our ego and you can have pretty much anything.

1. We don't care if the paint is white, eggshell, or ivory.
2. We are not horny dogs... You release Pheromones.
3. Our ego's are as fragile as your view of yourself.

and just to be funny...

4. when you say...

Jen's having a baby, lets go to get some things for her, she doesn't know the sex.

we hear

Jen's having a baby, lets go to get some things she needs to have. she doesn't know the sex.

No straight non-relative thinks of you as his sister.

We don't feel loved without sex, but we're physically capable of having sex without even feeling "like".

Get this book..... it will be eye opening - if you really want to understand men's sexuality...

Men in Love : Nancy Friday: Books

Quote:
This study is a book about men who love women, exploring the secret, erotic fantasies that men have always kept hidden. It is a taboo-shattering investigation which explains to women as well as to men the deepest, most conflicting feelings that men have about women, men and their own sexuality. Based on thousands of candid responses from men ranging in age from 14 through their 60s, this book goes beyond the cliche of the women seen as either madonna or w***e to reveal the conflict of love and rage at the centre of men's emotions.
Although I agree many men are half listening when the wife talks, I can't say this is true of my husband..... I am probably more guilty of half listening to him at times (if I am on this forum), he has complained before... then he'll say something completely outrageous to see if I am paying attention. I , however, have never felt "half heard" or him being absent.

I am not an obsessive talker though, it would be difficult to be half listening to me, too much "back & forth" involvement...he would be busted. He is likely different than the norm... I have a true listener in a husband.

Even if men are against porn, it is still a heavy temptation for the best of men. I would list that as one.

I agree, men have very fragile egos, they want our respect, and to be praised more than anything... outside of HOT enthusiastic passionate SEX, of course.

And oral sex ranks up with the top 3 things they want in this life.... I remember a thread on here once, most of the women thought that was disgraceful, but almost all the men felt that way, I asked mine that night...Yep.. .he did too!

i find it absolutely shocking that my woman could shut off intimacy and expect me to be ok with it

I really meant what I said not what you read between the lines and assigned a different meaning to. If I mean something else I will say it!

No, because I love you doesn't mean I should know what you want or need.......Tell me what you want!

We aren't good with hints but we work well with direct statements. Tell us exactly what you want.

I don't care what color shoe you wear with that outfit. I only care how tall the heel is.

You can beat an egg, you can beat your dog, you beat your kids......But you just can't beat a good blow job!!!!!

Most men have one track minds. We CANNOT engage in a meaningful conversation when the TV is on.

When that pretty girl walked by, YES, we noticed her.

When we talk to women, even in the most conservative, professional business situation, hell, even at a FUNERAL, at least once, for at least ONE SPLIT SECOND, we are wondering what you'd look like naked.

Right! Men aren't sex maniacs just because they want to have sex with their wives on a regular basis; it makes us feel wanted and loved.

No, it's not OK that your mother is here EVERY night when Iget home from work (why can't she pitch in a buck or two for the food she's consumed in the past 10 years?)

Yes, we want oral and are willing to give (at least ost of us) in return

A man is like a linoleum floor....Lay him right and you can walk on him for 40 years (Bret Butler)

If you truly understood the issue of a man's need for sex, how come we don't have more?

I can eaisly understand the first part of that sentence, but I have a hard time understanding the second part. I'm not saying it's wrong or bad, I'm just saying its hard for me to wrap my brain around it; it's just so foreign to the way I think.
