I can file the list of his manly traits under “things feminist hate because they want to be men” . But it makes them ugly inside and out. They don't understand that it takes a real woman to find, keep and love, a real man.
It is unfortunate that male children are being raised by such selfish hags.
1. A man makes the hard decisions that need to be made and bears the emotional burden and responsibility of those decisions; leaving his woman free to cry.
2. A man will take the most demeaning job available to support his family. A smart woman (his woman) will heap on the praise and learn to cook beans in 10000 different ways for love of his efforts.
3. A man will take out the smelly trash but leave his smelly socks in the living room next to his ugly chair. A woman (his woman) will pick up the socks without complaint because she hates the smelly garbage more. The chair can wait....
4. A man can come home after a hard days work and smell like a man. A real woman (his woman) doesn't curl her nose, she'd rather run to him and feel those strong arms around her...the bath can wait a moment or two.
5. A man brings home small trinkets, it could be something cute he saw at the gas station after he filled up (his woman's) car, perhaps a key bob or a bic lighter with a pretty picture, he brings it to Her.
6. A man is a BBQ chef! Mostly its good, sometimes not so much, but it is always wonderful and praise worthy to (his woman).
7. A man talks about his day, how it relates to him, how he perceives others, (his woman) barely gets a word in edgewise. The real woman serves him beer if he likes it tea if that's his choice, listens and advises if he needs it, and enjoys his peace and comfort later.
8. A man who is not a tradesman can still fix a running toilet, a stopped up sink, open a pesky package with his pocket knife, get the car running, take the dog to the vet and still tell (his woman) how beautiful she is and how HE can't live without HER.
9. A man will give up a football game to let (his woman) watch some stupid show..again. He leaves the room frequently, has business in the back room, where the other TV resides, but insists he's not that interested in the game. A woman (his woman) will show her appreciation by ensuring his glass is never empty, his dinner is on time, and, other ways.
10. A man tells crude jokes, laughs at stupid antics, indeed takes part in stupid antics. A man is demanding and unreasonable, a man blusters and complains, a man is gentle and kind, faithful, annoying, childish, irresponsible in so many ways.
I'll take a man any day, because I am a woman (his woman)
You sound and act like my woman. Thank you. I appreciate and love my wife even more.
I loved it.
Now that is a wonderful (and very sane) list of how a rational woman behaves when she’s in a relationship with a real man. I consider myself blessed that Mrs. Windflier scores about 80% on that.
I’d like to think that I score at least as well, but I don’t know. After eighteen years, I’m still a work in progress :-)
