this thread is not about marriage and how to make one work. Please read thr topic question again
you wrote"make the marriage work"


She was saying that her friend bought the book to help make his marriage work. She did not ask if anyone had any ideas on how to help them. Her question was He said that in his eyes and many of his male friend's eyes, most women have a hidden agenda. This agenda could mean many different things. Do you think the same way?

I was chatting the other day with a male freind. He is having some serious marital issues and ended up buying a book that he thought would enable him to understand women better and anticipate his wife's needs in order to make the marriage work. There was one point he made that made me sit up and take notice. He said that in his eyes and many of his male friend's eyes, most women have a hidden agenda. This agenda could mean many different things. Do you think the same way?


Some women have an agenda, but I would'nt say most.

I think they should figure each other out together. Speaking of books, this is a great book for them to read to each other
'A Small Treatise on the Great Virtues by André Comte-Sponville'.

If they are both willing to spend time together to figure things out then I would say neither has an agenda. If not, it would speak volumes and support what his male friend's say in this case.

However the women that have hidden agendas are often very devious to the extent that can rival no man's plans.

Hate to say it, but so true. I have distanced myself from those a few times in my life. Being open and non-manipulative works best. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll pass it on to him.

We are all individuals. If we had a book about ourselves no 2 would be the same. A nice try by your friend to make things work but that kinda goes along the lines of a blanket statement(the book that is). I'd be willing to bet you could take 10 people and read something out of the book and you would get 10 different responses to it.

My opinion? Not all women have a hidden agenda. But many have goals based on neuroses, insecurities, and vanity driven or selfish driven purposes. That addage of "If it aint broke- don't fix it" does not apply to female psyche. And their addage of "Bigger, better, more class, more color- change everything from the color of the drapes to my mans looks and behavior" clashes with "If it aint broke- don't fix it". In a way, I look deep in my life and would be honored to find someone who wants to positively construct a good life together and work to celebrate that life. Unfortunately all I've found available are women hell bent on destroying everything, from their own lives and livelyhood to trying to destroy everything in other peoples life through vanity, sloth, ego, greed,vengeance, and compicit selfishness. And covering it up by blaming others. And sometimes it feels like its an agenda. Sometimes it feels as if its a crazy possessed person screaming for therapy. You may disagree. You have that right. But I've read many crazed angry violent diatribes posted by women in these forums, and some of the most selfish vanity driven offensive profiles in 2 years that were to lead me to this conclusion. Pure inherit evil beyond contempt. "I'm fat and if you don't like it you can die, F**k off, or cut off your manhood". "I have cats and if you don't like it you can die, F**k off, or cut off your manhood". "I have 3 kids from 3 deadbeat fathers because I test relationships through vaginal trial and error, and if you don't like it you can die, F**k off, or cut off your manhood". "I have 23 tattooes and 14 piercings, and intend to get more, and if you don't like it you can die, F**k off, or cut off your manhood". Think I'm crazy? You women should LOOK through WOMENS PROFILES IN YOUR AREA ON THIS SITE!!! I DARE YOU!!! And then tell me there are NO AGENDAS!!! Here, let me give you a preview of what you will find......."Looking for my prince charming", "Looking for my prince charming", "Looking for my prince charming", "Looking for my prince charming", "Looking for a man that will take care of me", "Looking for Mr right who will treat me like a princess", "Looking for a man that will take care of my needs", "Looking for a tall good looking man who can support me emotionally and financially", "Looking for my prince in shining armor to come rescue me", "Looking for Mr perfect", "Looking for Mr perfect who can overlook my imperfections", "Looking for a great guy, good guy, great good guy, good great guy, nice guy, nice great guy, nice good guy, nice great good guy, etc; etc; etc". It kinda sounds agenda driven to me. Either that or some serious dillusional behavior because most "Prince charmings" and "Knights in shining armor" that I know have been dead for about 450 years now and are ill capable of having any type of normal relationship. Ohhhhhh! You're saying its just a figure of speech and that you want to live in a delusional "Fairytale princess world". Well that's just wonderful and special. But normal people with concrete symbiotic nuclear relationships that succeed........live in the REAL WORLD!!!!!!!

And personally I find all the anger and vile behavior, and inherent bitterness amusing. There's a lot of pissed off delusional princesses out there that are angry that their agendas are not being met. Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!! The knights in shining armor are sick of wannabe queens screaming "Off with his head"!!! The knights in shining armor want selfless kind sweet cinderella. Not her psycho f***ed up wierd whacko evil stepsisters. Do all women have agendas? No. But the ones that do all have the same agenda..........to get their gnarley wart and bunion fatass nasty feet into cinderellas glass slipper. And no matter what, grease, heavy crane, bribery, explosives, jenny crank, telepathy, and vaginal aptitude...........the slipper is not going to fit.
