I too have to cosign your post 100%
I saw another cat mention something about being independent. and women say that shit all the time like you deserve a cookie or some shit.
my feeling is that its a fucking cop out. we as men are designed to protect, provide, and conquer. the same women are designed by nature to nurture, love, and support.
Ill go through all of it for "dumb ass moments" but they are easy enough to understand. but before i begin I want to say I'm just getting over the 35 mark and I am Single and a happy bachelor. and yes I have a career, and yes I make a descent living. It has to be said because some people are superficial like that.
Ive witnessed break ups and custody nightmares my homeboys and female friends have and are going through. people (men and women) tend to complicate things with a relationship that nature dealt with for us a long time ago.
yes it is that simple.
protector
as men we are designed by nature to protect our loved ones AKA Family (wife and children). there's no such thing as being independent. we are the stronger of the two sexes physically and the more assertive. we are designed to lead but it doesn't mean control. It is an insurance policy. granted some of us are defective as men but it is what it is.

Disclaimer- this is not to say women cant earn their own wages or are not as smart as men.
As men we need to provide resources and opportunity for growth in a relationship, financially, physically, and intellectually. bottom line make things better and OK if they're bad.
Conqueror
We all no most men lack emotional skills, but that doesn't mean we are defective. we are decision makers. I'll say it again WE ARE DECISION MAKERS!! meaning we are best at detaching from making emotional decisions and embracing logical ones. this is why the stereotype " women can't decide" comes from or "women aren't better drivers then men". we can make quicker and more sound decisions, and when we are dealt with a situation, it looks as if it doesn't affect us as much as it does the opposite sex. emotional detachment allows for a better decision.
and for the ladies.......

Ladies I need you to stop defending the mother status as if we are only saying you need to be "barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen baking a fucking pie". we need to hear we are wonderful the same way you do. we love the kisses and hugs when we come home, and we listen to the stories and crisis you bring to the table and yes we do care, but that's your fucking job! that is your forefront. that is the moment we take a back seat to the relationship. when its caring time you are in charge. bottom line, when emotions are involved we let you handle it. a man cannot teach child love better than a women can. and FYI the nine month of carrying extends to us also.
Lover
to i really need to touch base on that. you guys are far better at expressing love then we are. That is where most of our energy comes from. we cant do the things men can without it. its our motivation, our fuel, and our reason.
Supporter
which brings me to support. a Great king always has a great Queen beside him. not front, not behind, but beside. get the fucking picture. Support your fucking man. as you can see this is my biggest pet peeve about a woman lol. if you want him to show you that you are his reason for existence, act like it. you'll be surprised by the outcome.
If both parties play their role it can be that simple.
as for my gay BGOL folks you a hybrid. this does not apply to some extent. do your thing but God AKA nature did not intent to evolve that way. Reproduction opportunities are not there.
my bad on the long response. i get pissed when I see complications when its not needed.
I'm okay, I'm good now. had to vent lol
