Who is the man again?

It may be 2010 but women are still looking for the same thing they were in men 50 years ago. They are looking for those man traits. Those man traits that define a REAL man. The word real is so played out I hate to even use it. So let’s just say and authentic man. However, we seem to have a small case of role reversal going on here and I don’t believe it is benefiting either gender at all. Women are starting to act more like men and men are beginning to act more like women. Where am I going with this exactly? Let me show you starting with us women.

Some of us women have taken it upon ourselves to walk around like we have the penis. We want to do everything for ourselves and don’t take no for an answer. We turn our hearts to stone and put up a brick wall where we wouldn’t know love if it hit us in the face. We want to wear the pants like they fit and maybe they do. However, some food for thought women, what man wants a man in a dress? If he wanted that he would turn gay right? I think women are forgetting that it’s okay to be soft because that is part of being a woman. It’s great to be independent and take care of yourself but let that man do for you if he wants to. Let him take you out. Let him pull out your chair. Let him lead the conversation. Let him do the things he is SUPPOSED to do to show interest in you. Otherwise, you are going to scare him and any other potential until you learn to put your penis away. Stop rocking out with your cock out. *I had to come back and add this one too. Some women find themselves acting more like men and actively dating multiple people at the same time. Now, it is your business and your business only what you do. HOWEVER, you must understand that a) anything you do you can’t expect him NOT to do and b) you must deal with the consequences of your actions. So, if you want to have a starting 5 and possibly a 6th man then go right ahead, but know there are pros and cons to doing so. I’m not here to judge.

I haven’t forgotten about the men. Some of you men have taken it upon yourselves to get a little too soft on us and take on some unflattering feminine traits. One of these traits is being scared to go out on a limb. Some of you are very scary acting nowadays. You can’t approach a woman because she looks unapproachable. However, you never know until you try. Some men are so scared of rejection by the female species that they will pass up an opportunity on someone who was just waiting for them to come over and speak. What’s the worst that could happen? She could tell you that she isn’t interested and then you can be on your merry little way. Now would that hurt you to the point of no return? I think not. I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure it’s wired into your being to be THE man and keep your emotions at bay (that is not saying don’t be emotional but that is saying control them). Another and possibly the most annoying trait men have developed is the trait of gossiping. Now, there is nothing wrong with talking to your buds about March Madness or Health Care Reform. I’ll even give you asking a personal friend about a specific problem in your “ship”. However, there is something wrong with grown ass men sitting around having a roundtable talking about the girls they are hitting and the games they are playing with them. This is so feminine it is ridiculous. If you need an ego boost, look for that from your woman by doing something good for her not from your boys by bragging about the scattered ass you brought home last night. It’s very distasteful.

So my point is to everyone act accordingly. If you want a man, then you need to act like a woman and if you want a woman then you need to act like a man but as always… Everything is subject to interpretation =)
