It seems to me that we’ve been accustomed to accepting men’s stigmas and even laugh about it, such as them refusing to ask for directions, making decisions in important family matters, earning more money while assuming the same roles and tasks as women’s, etc. I’ve learned in the few years preceding my divorce after a marriage of 27 years, that I was taken for granted. I truly think that what men don’t know about women is translated in the fact that they take women for granted.. Am I saying right?

I would not insult the intelligence of women posting here by remindind them that I believe that the guy, Klein, is the kind of man who gives the entire male gender a bad name and, whether he knows it or not, promotes feminism and a polarization of genders. Since he clearly is incompetent as a psychiatrist and should not be permitted to deal with people at all, my great hope for him is that he would face a Medical Board of extreme feminist Amzonian Nazis to decide to suspend his license and whatever other punishment they choose to impose. Would a women’s prison be too good for him?

Well, Dan, the women in prison already have enough aggravation, what with the lousy food and not being able to see their kids. Why would you do this to them? You don’t need to apologize for this character. Just keep on being a good guy and it’s fine.

Oh no, they’re really fake! Oy I’m learning much more about women than I think I should know. I’m still not sure who’s who in these discussions. This is getting very confusing. Mugs ever since I saw a picture in the newspaper of a woman who turned into a man and was pregnant I’m having a difficult time sleeping.

OK! I don’t know what men don’t know. I’m just trying to figure out what I still don’t know about men. Speaking of men…has anyone else but me wondered if George Bush knelt and kissed the Pope’s ring as is protocol? I noticed that they all seemed to be doing it at the U.N. today.

Cynthia, I saw our fearless leader shake the Pope’s hand and say “Awesome speech, reverend” I think I caught him call the Pope “reverend” but I am not sure on that part- but I did hear very clearly “awesome speech…” Bush is a moron. When he was first elected some Canadian woman politician was working with Bush on some committee and she came back and said she refused to work with him - he is a moron! I laughed so hard and thought how gutsy and perceptive this woman was.

Geez — does anyone stay on topic, and/or feel free to voice an opinion without engaging in a flame war? Learn how to disagree with someone without making it a personal attack. What don’t men know about women? Quite a lot. But that can be remedied if the man takes the time to TALK to his woman, and learn the secrets of her heart. And women could do the same for their men.

Janis, point well taken. But the topics aren’t all that good- the more interesting information is often the direction the women end up taking as a reaction to the fluff topic. This one I admit has been dominated by MK annoyance. I agree it is important to not shut down different opinions however- so we have a rich diverse discussion of ideas and view points and hopefully cultures. Some of the blogger here have become frequent internet talkers and some of that challenging is among our “family”.

MK is the perfect answer to “what do men not know about woman”. The posts responding to this question show that woman individually and together can conquer and destroy all ignorant and evil SOB’s (and that is EXACTLY WHAT MK IS) that stalk the real humans. What men don’t understand about woman is that we are hear to direct them in the correct manner with any of their ideas, inventions, wars and politics. We help to instill in them the importance of family, values and morals. (which obviously mk had no direction). We help men to understand woman. The trick is to do this without letting them know were doing it. I love the line in “My Big Fat Greek Wedding” when the mother states to her daughter. Remember your father may be the head, but I am the neck and the neck can turn the head any way she wants. This isn’t about control either, it is just the nature of the sex. We are the ones that suffer from embarrassment and neglect when they are not directed in the correct manner. I think anyone that has a son understands this. They do what they want they are definitely the stronger sex and that strength helps them in all aspects of life, but whatever they do can be done with sensitivity, good sportsmanship, good intensions, fairness, intelligence and integrity. Then the woman can be proud and happy to know they have done their job. It may be a man’s world but woman are the influence.

Women want three things from a relationship with a man. Respect is the first and formost. Appreciation is so important to a woman and we men forget this all the time. The third most important quality is HELP! Women want Help in the household chores managing everything as it comes along in life. This seems like a short list but trust, love,intimacy and all those things women want in a relationship come from RESPECT- APPRECIATION and HELP. I Live and Love by this. I am a Man whom I think gets it. OK,my wife thinks so to, and thats the truth!!
