are men really into that primal thing still?
Tarzan brings home the bacon,
Jane cooks it?

my guys would prefer that i stayed home and let him take care of me...
but i love working and having my own thing.

he says do whatever makes me happy but at the same time he's made it very clear what he wants.

what do you guys think about this?

Find yourself some guys who think the same way you do.

Problem solved.

As a woman, I prefer that we cook our own bacon, in separate pans, in separate kitchens.

I really admire independence. I agree with the person who mentioned finding a guy who thinks the same way as you do, as that would filter out more of what you don't want. While the damsell in distress is quite sweet in theory, I don't find it practical much.

I donno .....I think of my girl as an equal .

I help her when she needs help.

She helps me when I need help.

Individually we have our strengths and weakness.

Together, we become much more.

She definitely makes me feel like I am a better man.

Boy wolves need girl wolves and girl wolves can hunt and kill like the boy wolves! Us wolves can survive on our own but are far more effective when we work together. but sometimes boy wolves need time away from girl wolves and vice-versa.

Nope, this man prefers his women independent. I like a woman who can kick *** and take names later!


Damsels in distress are the worst. Reason being, unlike that punk Prince Charming, it is knights like me in rusty battle dented armor killing the damn dragon and that effeminate (expletive again) comes riding up on his white horse and shining armor and uses royal privilege to take credit for my kill and suddenly that (expletive) is riding off on his horse instead of mine!

You might wish to stay away from me. I know the deadly art of sensuous cooking. That is where we mix ingredients on a hot fry pan and make a heck of a mess in the process but have OH SO MUCH FUN doing it! I could fold you up in a Pita pocket and eat you all up, NOM NOM NOM!

funny
good points everyone. but he's not pushing his views he simply told me them which is fair. he supports my independence but it not what he's used to. i am surprised to see that so many guys are into the independent thing that's awesome.

Yes, yes they are. Research this, its encoded into their DNA.

Oh good...see this works because that bachelor diet ain't gonna cut it. Maybe if we were on the set of Roseanne.

Are you actually saying these words? They appear to be said yet hold no proof in fact. Men and women will always think different. I wouldn't dream of being in a guy's head for an hour even if I was forced to. scared

I am an independent woman but don't mind sharing the chores with a guy. I don't do the damsel in distress thing as that doesn't work for me.

Nothing beats a woman in a kitchen...Doesn't mean she can't work and be independent.

Pretty much means I'll sustain life longer.smokin

Krupa has said it all.. Then pray God gives you a husband who thinks same way you do.. Otherwise, if husband insist you stay home my dear you do just that, while talking to him in letting you work also..

There is no such thing as independence. Independence is an illusion.
We are all interdependent and it is wise to recognize how we all
rely on each other in various ways, accept this and learn to gracefully
help others and learn to gracefully appreciate others helping us.

Since we are all interdependent in various ways the only difference is
how to divide our responsibilities. There is no way to divide equally
so we share the duties/chores as best we can according to our talents
and capabilities and learn to enjoy the gift of each other.

:wink:

I disagree ....but you ain't wrong.

If you work and try hard enough....eventually the stupid cow who passed you up for greener grass in greener fields becomes the idiot.
