Decisions based on feminism: You cant make this stuff up

Much of that "mystery" has been debunked in the last 10 years.

 

It isn't a "mystery". It's science. Men can't emotionally relate to women. Your brains are not wired to do it.

Evolutionarily speaking: women were wired to relate to eachother - to emotionally console and raise the brood while the men went out and hunted. You cannot put food on the table if you are worried about hurting bambi or emotionally processing your actions, to the degree of a woman, before you take them.

Just because the setting has changed and those functions are no longer useful - doesn't mean they aren't still there. The amount of phytoestrogens in our food these days is slowly changing that - so have hope that one day, you can cry over seeing a baby bunny being slaughtered by an eagle too (ha-ha).

 

Nope...shit dies all the time. Just because I saw it this time is no reason to get all emotional.

 

Emotionally relate as in "put myself in a woman's shoes", nope, can't do that. So you are right about that.

Understand how she is largely driven by emotions and make very accurate predictions on her behavior? Yep, that's not too difficult. And, that is what is important because I don't want to "feel" the same things that women do in order to understand any potential outcome.

 

Predicting their irrationality doesn't equal understanding their irrationality.

Someone's gonna find a bunny boiling in a pot...

 

Big, new discovery!
Men and women are different!

 

Just because some of their moves are without logic doesn't mean that they cannot be understood. Random cannot be understood and only rarely predicted. They are not random.

One buddy cries for the bunny when he sees a red tail making off with one. He knows that's one more bunny that his beagles won't have.

 

Why would anyone?
Most women I know don't want you to.

 

Or is it that women cannot emotionally relate to men?

 

No wonder I hate people

 

S'awright.


People hate you too....

 

Good keeps them off my lawn so I don't have to kill them like happened in England to that other old codger that messed with a sheep

 

I dunno. Most of the men I know have the emotional range of a teaspoon. While they know a woman can go from elated to depressed to pissed in the span of 10 seconds - they sure as fuck can't relate to it. They also have crammed up in there somewhere that a women in distress needs something fixed. So solutions are offered and fights are started from said solutions. Women are fucking crazy and men are dense - it's a perilous combination.

Personally, Unless I specifically say "help me." I don't want the fixing thing that happens. Just shut it and hug me.
Simple?

 

Is it inappropriate to cop a feel when we give these type of hugs?

 

Dern seems to think so.
The tragedy here is inconsistent feedback though. Sometimes it's okay and sometimes it's not. And like trying to wean a kid off the tit - if you give in once just to shut them up, they won't understand why they can't do it again next time.

 

This is sage advice. It took me years to learn it but once I did life got much easier.

 

I don't know what they were thinking when the editors came up with the "Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus" book title.

You've stumbled on a much more concise and precise title....

 

Men aren't dense. That's just BS right there.
